Xeno aimbot is fine?

Post by Sad_Corn » 30 Nov 2016, 13:31

Hey, sometimes playing as marine, i face ayyliens that never miss neuro spits, pounces, rav chargers, and that was ok, people can be robust players. But one day i heard on OOC about some broken xeno macros, to pounce/spit/charge the neareast target and pretty much never miss an atack. Is this considered an exploit or something? Staff can discover if a player is using this broken shit?

They took Lawrence, dear god Lawrence... They ripped him off the stalk and smeared him in butter, just like Tyler and Jodie. They shipped him off to the popcorn factory...
I wonder what his wife will say.

Day 120: My brother says the VEGANS are protesting for more anti-meat bullshit. They want more of us to die. FUCKING HEATHENS.

Day 153: The ants are eating me from the inside out. They are popping out my kernels and taking them back to the nest. I feel them moving inside me. Julia says the pesticides will end our misery.

Day 300: Sweet Release. I can hear the planes flying over now. They are dropping the gas, it feels so good, sweet release-

Basically, if you use the verb instead of a mouse hotkey, it will aim it for you. Spit never misses this way, other abilities can.

That's an interesting question, still, this exploit doesn't make them invincible. Nevertheless if it's a bug exploit it should be fixed and forbidden.

There is a verb to type on chat and do it?

Can you send me for testing?

I only use the shift click, ctrl c ctrl v a command could be more easy

Theres still the RNG of getting hit.
The different is you for sure land the hit.

Not very useful or power-gamey, so its fine

Preatty postive before we middle click macros for spitting it was from a verb.

Not to mention RNG + its laggy to use at some points

And you can just run away

I feel like it's a little bit of a problem. It makes it so Xenos can dodge and weave all they want and still have hitchance and possible armor to protect them, While. now marines vs these macro xenos can't dodge and weave, and instead have to rely on hitchance. A spitter or prae could easily smack a hyperzined marine no matter how zoom zoom he is, and have a runner, hunter, or crusher drag them off while they're neuroed, hugger them, or even have a boiler take them out of commission, or acid spit the fuck out of them while they're down. There's no dodging based on juke skills for marines vs that.

Yeah, but i don't know if the staff can stop shit like that without remove all the macros from the game

A spitter actually can't reliably hit moving targets with their spit by spitting directly at someone. Spit has travel time, and it has a pretty decent chance to automatically miss besides that. A hyperzined marine especially would be very difficult to hit even with the macro. They'll probably have moved several tiles by the time the spit reaches where they were.
