Just yesterday I telefraged AND dominated a random spy who was near it (probably trying to sap). It was Lol :D

Nope! Once again I was saved from certain death by virtue of being polite. Which is ironic, because I pretty much shoot anyone who comes close to my buildings. Killed several spies last night that way.

[url=#user_comment_69812]@MegaTank[/url] Well the story did say the new Engineer was a newbie and not very good.

[url=#user_comment_69767]@Mentlegen[/url]: "HOW DID YOU KILL ME? I didn't even see you, you fucking hacker!" Great lulz rage indeed. I remember hearing messages like that constantly when the Engineer Update happened. Now there was some lulz to be had.

Really, didn't you know about yer old Telephragging?
As a Spy, it's my primary strategy while hunting for Engineers: it comes really in handy when the Engineer is hiding in his Sentry-Telep-Dispenser Barricade

I honestly didn't know that was possible, and I usually play as an engineer (never play spy, obviously). I just never stood on the teleporter exit because I didn't want to get in the way of my own team ^^;

How to tell if an engineer is an idiot:
Do they stand on their teleporter at all?
(Walking over it briefly may be excused if it is to avoid enemy fire)

If yes, ask them to play another class. If no, cherish them and protect them with your life.

Totaly unrelated news : E.Y.E is out, and they have swords that make people explode on contact.

Hey guys can spies still get teleported by enemy buildings?

Yeah, the dead space DLC was a huge error made and never fixed. It wasn't even supposed to come to PC, but now we all have it free! A welcome irony in DLC laden games these days. I didn't know what I was doing at first, so I just took the items. There's not much difference between them though.

This comic is so fictitious. Pyros don't spycheck anymore! Then again, it is a fairy tale... I guess it could be about a time long ago...

It couldn't have featured Isaac again and not have changed. Isaac has been exposed to something that most people would (and I guess he did?) have a psychotic break over. He's not "afraid" anymore. Isaac in DS2 is the evolution of a now desensitized, but intelligent character. With weapons.

I think the weapons and suits are a compensation of a bug that happened when the game was first released on PC, problems with the suits on New Game+ and Hardcore mode, saving problems. They are fixed now.

I think if you played the first part and still have the savegame stored on your HD, you get bonus those items.

Telefrags are awesome, especially when you sap an Engineer's shit and wait until they break the TP's sapper.

Turns out he most definitely was if he fell for that old trick.

(well, except all the deja vu from System Shock 2) and swesome ship and monster designs. And also a lot of epic moments, like escape from solar panel array in the second part.

You also get some free stuff if you have the save (or whole game? I dunno, i got both) from first game (completed, of course) on your PC.

For everyone, who dropped the game or even didn't try it - give it a chance, it is awesome sci-fi action (I haven't found it scary though) with nice plot

I like telefragging in UT, with that teleports shooting gun

I abuse the hell out of this telefrag move all the time

btw, Joe, about the Free stuff in the store... it was included in the latest update of DS2 because it was their apology for not bringing the Severed DLC to the PC.

Anyways, I would sure love to play with you on Multiplayer sometimes, if only I dont get dc'd every 5 mins I get into a game.

The main reason I dropped the first Dead Space was that I like survivial horror games, not horror-based action games. But I'd like to give it another chance netherless

All the uber equipment is because of a PC/Xbox version mixup of sorts.

Yeah DS2 is a nice game, and i think it´s better then the first one. and the last weapon *after close the game in the impossible level,*the big red hand, worth it


ps:sorry I have a really bad english

I had the same issue with my Steam copy of DS2, Jo. And I took the same course, I only bought the basic weapons as they became unlocked... at first. After a point I started to wonder if I was supposed to be naturally unlocking the uber versions through play and started using those instead. D'oh well

I love doing this to careless engineers. Nothing brings out the rage quite like a good telefrag.

@T Chicken

He got Telefragged, which is what happens if someone uses a teleporter with an enemy standing on the exit.

Dead Space 2 is actually something expected for a sequel. Hate the multiplayer though :(
