Acth Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 I need to knock someone out to capture them. There was a dart gun provided in a chest but it doesn't seem to do anything other than minimal damage to the target. I've hit him 3 times with it. Any clue how this is supposed to work?

Garic Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 my guess would be that it takes time to work.. but hey.. i dont have the game.. so i dont know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 4, 2003 Report Share Posted November 4, 2003 Shoot him a couple of times That'll make him weaker. Also.. I have heard that stunning gear can take a turn or 2 to work, I'm not really sure as i just went balistic and blew people away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hojew Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Sometimes you can get away with shooting them until they "die" or become unconscious. If you're worried about overkilling your target, you can always use your fists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicky Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 I looked the dart gun up in the editor, and found an extra variable called "chance to stun" at 80% From the underground factory in Swizerland I know, stun is NOT unconscious So my guess is: When you successfully stun an enemy with the dart gun or pistol, you won't see much graphical feedback. He just won't move the next turn. All you can do to see if it worked or not is pressing the "end of round" button and waiting if he moves or not... You still have to punch/kick him unconscious.Anyone confirm my theory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHunter Posted November 6, 2003 Report Share Posted November 6, 2003 Just shoot him with anything you got. Anything short of blowing his body to pieces with explosives will be marked as "unconscious" :lol: If you click attack and target a body, it'll show that it's unconscious...even after it flew 6 feet from a sniper shot to the head I've also emptied a full clip of Panzerklein machine gun into the bodies & they still are unconscious :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Yes, it seems the 'headshot' kills are disabled. You can turn them back on again though That makes it 'slightly' more challenging, you risk blowing the guys head off accidently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHunter Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Hmm...but would they still be unconscious if I shoot somewhere else? Shooting their legs also sends them flying when they die Except flipping forward instead of backward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 As long as you don't miss and hit the head Also.. grenades & explosives are likely to turn your enemy into giblets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooK Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Use the knife to the back style :lol: or hit thr guy with billyclub.I play with stealth & sneaky style so i have killed many enemys with my two scouts and theyr knives. Never managed to really "kill" anybody with knife, only knokked them unconsius even when i split theyr throat with knife :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHunter Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 How did you manage to sneak up close enough without getting shot at :? I never manage to do that I wonder how you are supposed to knock out people when they are wearing those suits without shooting :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggles Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 One of the things 'fixed' in the release was that in v1.0 when you 'overkilled' (did a huge amount of damage to an enemy) they actually exploded into meaty chunks. But a lot of people complained that this was unrealistic (especially when a cheat enhanced scout could do it with a knife thrust) But in those days, dead was dead. I'm sure it's going to be possible to mod this sort of thing back. maybe even try for soem sort of realism to death & unconciouness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooK Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Little bit offtopic but somekinda realism mod would be really good. Like Biggles said "dead will be dead" so nomore unconsious enemys after 50hits of machinegun :lol: All those mechsuits off (balance could be made by using 3 or 4 enemys)All "plasma weapons" or what the hell those are offand other minor changes. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHunter Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 But I LOVE those suits~! Took forever to snipe the pilot out with sniper rifles, but now that I have a whole set for my team, I just walk up to the enemy and let them shoot at me :twisted: Their bullets sometimes bounce off me and hit them back :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooK Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 I dont like those suits, if i want to play mechs i play mechcommander Like i said before im sneaky&stealthy type of player and its impossible to sneak if you were using robosuit, so i dont use them mutch. I only have one robosuit in use and it acts as artillery support and housedestroyer anyway :lol: Those plasma weapons are really horrible imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHunter Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 For some strange reason you can't hide while using the allies & axis suits, but you can hide using the THO suits. Those are great except for not being able to switch weapons EDIT: I just found out something :shock: :shock: :shock: You CAN kill them with enough shots at the body It'll still show unconscious, but the guy is actually dead.I was having some fun with a boss that I was suppose to carry out. I shot at him about 150 times with lazers, then noticed that my objective for carrying him out is crossed out :shock: :shock: Only then did I notice that he no longer has the "i" on top of his head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
