+1 if for the shudder, +1 for the knockdown IF the chance decreases the closer you are to the shuttle impact point(and yes, I KNOW THIS MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE IN REALISM TERMS) so the marines who are closer can atleast form some sort of mock defence whilst the others get up.

+1 because it sounds fucking awesome. Though maybe stunning marines in addition to the questionable "Fairness" of crashing may be a bit much. I say the lag spike when it hits is stun enough haha.

It's very needed. Would add a lot of realism.

+1 would love to see this for immersion, makes the impact feel like a impact, instead of "oh, rasp crashed, let's go kill xenos"

Also, when the shaking stops, you hear an ominous roar through the ship.
"Huh, would you look at that... We are screwed yet again."
Plays as Phil "Termite" Smith

You can give a smartgun to every marine, and they would still find a way to FF with it.

That'd be metal as fuck to be honest. Like a proper queen roar from alien vs. predator 3. Hells to the yeah man.

I play Aria Vivici. I think people like me. I'm not sure why.

whatta fail
Janina 'Bullseye' Jardine- Never misses, but what she DOES hit is another thing

This place would be so much better if marines were replaced with cyborgs, atleast those would follow orders. assuming there was a rule forcing them to do so...

+1 sounds like a great idea that isn't excessively straining on the staff

I play Hans Meier, your random old guy from germany.
Is this a little medic Chibi Hans slightly different from the Avatar one? --> Image Oh yes it is! All the credits and a huge thanks to Okand37 for these lovely marines!

it'd be cool if the almayer switched to red emergency lights (like fire alarms) but it'd probably cause a lot of lag
+1 either way

The Rasputin no Longer Exists, suggestion Invalid.

On a Serious Note, yeah this would be cool if it didnt kill us with lag, +1
