Breakable Crates!!! also, GunRunner awesomeness
« on: March 26, 2013, 17:25 »
So I dont know if you were able to break crates / boxes by shooting them in 9.9.6 or not, but I just discovered I could do it tonight.  So damn cool.  Levels filled with crates are my new best friend, nothing like finding med kits, armor, and boxes of shells just sitting there hidden :)

Also, Scout + GunRunner + Dualgunner + really good pistols = omg.  I found one combat pistol, im not sure if its possible but if I get a second, its on.

The crates are a new feature, and a good one indeed. Mind you not all crates can be shot, I think there's 2 different types that may contain treasure.

And the dual combat pistol thing should work nicely, although the chances of finding a second one are pretty slim. There are other very good pistols around though, so maybe...

If you get a chance, try gun runner in concert with shottyman. I hear it's pretty slick.

Gunrunner is good with everything that has a 1 s firing time. With SoBx3 + Fin firing speed quite good and we can just shoot as usual, no great advantage from running and shooting. Shottyman + elephant gun make Gunrunner really overpowered :)

Any screenshot with the crates? I've done a full run, and never found a single one of those...

Maybe something is up with my installation?

Ta-da! The other ones are light grey with a red/pinkish print.

LOL Thanks I would have never guessed !! Srsly this requires guessing skills which I didn't have...

Would have never even imagined it unless I blew them up by luck alone... I'm pretty sure I skipped all of that stuff...

And to think on my last UV I had HUGE ammunition issues... figures...

Don't get your hopes up too high, chances are you'll just end up wasting ammo.

You'll meet plenty of those especially in the Military Base, that should teach you how they look. And if you really don't know crates from walls, shoot them with a shotgun. Walls will stand, crates will fall.

One shotgun shell per crate (or even three when lucky and well-positioned) is not that much of a waste :).

Then again, you can also end up with a green armour and a small medkit. Woop-de-freaking-doo....

Go through the military base with a shotgun and you'll notice it.

I know you can chainsaw them (press f and then a direction). Perhaps you can even punch them. Haven't tried it.

Too bad they can't just be
