Post by Ned »

It's a new self-destruct rapid-fire hack that apparently only I HAVE UNCOVERED. PM me for details


I have other ones to:
- fire impact mortar and accidentally fly into it
- fire frag too close to one's self in a tunnel
- fly under dripping cylone juice in a panic
- fire guided missile and get killed waiting for zoom view to stop

but I'm gonna keep them just for myself
:wink:

Personally I think the overcharging Fusion while flying with less then 2 shields left is a good one.

Yeah, but catching your own flares is far more dramatic. You can also catch plasma.

Who needs to overcharge fusion with 2 shields? I'm capable of doing it all the way from 100 shields.

You have talent if you can accidentally kill yourself from overcharging Fusion with 100 shields. :P

Tho I think there are plenty of spots in D3 where you can accidentally bounce Fusion off a forcefield and erase your ship nicely. :P

...Or thinking (correctly!) that the napalm flooding the hall in front of you was fired by a pilot on your team, and flying through it... only to realize that the team-mate who fired it was you. :P

Nah. If I overcharge at 1000 FPS it takes about 0.5 seconds to drain from 100 to 0 shields.

I wonder why when I overcharge at 500 FPS it doesn't kill me any faster than if I overcharge at 60 FPS? Must be some wierd hax you're running.

I did that when getting my arse kicked by Testi years ago, only it was a Mega not napalm. I asked him if he saw it and he replied with a simple "yup".

I felt such a willy.

kamakaziemortar.exe does exactly what it says. flings out a mortar into a wall which bounces right back into your face.

I like to use use mortars to get out of a jam. When someone is chasing you, run through a door and fire a mortar at either the top or side of the door. It will bounce back in back of you and nail your pursuer. I have gotten quite a few kills this way.

I've always been a fan of diving into your teammate's napalm cloud, only to discover that your teammate was killed just after firing and the napalm has become neutral.

This is especially thrilling if your teammate launched napalm towards you specifically to cover your escape.

That explains it! :D

I had never understood that a teammate's napalm could become neutral, and always wondered how I got burned by it... now it makes sense.

Back on topic, the other day I also discovered the "fire the secondary just a fraction too late while dodging behind a wall" hack. :P

I guess you don't remember that old D1 hack where you could fire multiple level lasers in succession (ie: lvl1 -> lvl2 -> lvl3 -> lvl4 -> lvl1, etc). In D3 its no longer a "hack". ;) Just switch and fire.

Now how in the hack do you do that? Sounds interesting enough...
