I've been trying to tell people for a while but most players are fucking retarded and like to spam logs with *dance.NoahKirchner wrote:SHH DON'T TELL THEM!
I even see crusher guides that call for macroing *dance instead of just using the hotkeys.

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
I say we just remove *dance to be honest. I thought about it for a while and while it is fun it just somewhat promotes silliness too much for my tastes.

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
Eh not really, as a marine I just think "That shit is taunting us!" I'm much more likely to RP believe it is friendly if it actually does emotes that require effort.darkwahn wrote:But Hunter --- dances around can make the marines think you're not hostile on first contact. ;_;

I always thought it was cheeky, gives the xenos some character. Same thing with some hivechat memes and "Bonks"shyshadow wrote:A little funny? You mean a little salt inducing.

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
Dance is an amusing little trick at first, but when xenos start spamming it and turning into xenonatos... Then it gets a little excessive.
There is memeing, and then there is "LOOK AT ME MOMMY LOOK AT ME I'M FUNNY LOLOLOLOL!!!!11!!"

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
Memeing was a nice way to keep the hive working together imo, besides that there's literally nothing for xenos to talk about besides business. They can't RP because they were born literally 20 minutes ago and their personality and ambitions are already established. Memes A. Keep the hive together and B. make them more likely to listen to the queen because loving the queen is normally the source of the memes.Renomaki wrote:Dance is an amusing little trick at first, but when xenos start spamming it and turning into xenonatos...

RP shouldn't be focused on the xenos, they drive marine RP, not the other way around.

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
In my opinion, xenos shouldn't even be able to use /me. Seeing something like "Young Hunter (0) smiles at the marine creepily" is stupid, since xenos aren't supposed to interact with marines in that way. They are killing machines that aim to expand the hive or kill.

But ctrl+arrows is 2 or 3 times slower and jerky. Or maybe just when you live in Europe.

I've had marines just let me walk around them/ try to interact with me on first contact by doing that as my first action more than once.

I spam dance while jogging in front of marine defenses
You can't stop and use ctrl+arrows while actually moving, which is kinda shit.

Re: You don't have to spam *dance
OR just not dance at all cause it just makes people hate you more than they already do.

Remove dance, add fart, deals toxin damage to nested marines
Marines winrate 100% as xenos kill all infected marines with methane, as only slashing nested marines is banned.

You say we spam it because we are retarded when we are simply fucking up marine communication because they can't see each other talking in the chat when the chat log is full of dance emotes
