SO downing ability still present?

He didn't receive damage for a good 9 or 10 seconds before being downed.

I personally don't care, it's just that Epic said it wouldn't happen unless the person was already quite damaged (which I think is unlikely given the amount of time he had to recover from any potential damage from before).

He also gets the full 110 points for the kill, so no-one else touched him.

Exactly. Guess it hasn't changed.

That Is Lame. The No Downing By SawedOff Was The Biggest Leap Forward For The Guns Balance. So MANY Times I've Been In Gnasher Body Range To Get Downed In A DB Range.

Even the first kill (upstairs) seems odd. The locust surely would have regained all health by then.
I counted about 9 seconds from him mantle kicking the COG to being downed, and I didn't see him get shot as he was running upstairs. The player only got 70 points because someone must've damaged him at some point much earlier.

So it pretty much happened twice in a row.

You dont know this as you couldnt see that guy upstairs. Clearly he was already damaged given the point scores.

I'm not 100% confident with the first instance. As the drone is behind cover downstairs you can hear him grunting as if he's taking damage. I would have thought that by the time he ran upstairs his health would have pretty much completely recovered. I admit there's a possibility that his health wasn't at 100%. There's no doubt that the second instance is odd, though.

I have watched it a few times and I am merely curious as to what went on there...

However this is isolated. I will wait and see until retail and everyone has it to judge.

**beaverVKLAN** · 09-17-2011, 07:19 PM

OMG!! they have to fix it asap

**The Gruff Rabbit** · 09-15-2011, 08:45 PM

Yeah, I don't think that they actually changed the dbs from the beta (other than putting an extra light on it).

I believe that it's always downed in the way that Epic (Quinn) described recently (1 shot down only occurs if already damaged).

It doesn't surprise me at all that it still works like that. Epic seemed very stand-offish about changing the dbs.

Wait, it wasn't 175 points per kill in TDM?

175 points if you chunk them/headshot them, 110 if you down then 50 more for the kill (160)

**IDeadWork** · 09-15-2011, 08:46 PM

It didnt look like it shouldn't had happened...looks legit.

**Meuj** · 09-15-2011, 08:46 PM

Bit of a long shot but perhaps the update will be applied with the supposed TU at launch.

**Gnasher Masher** · 09-15-2011, 08:46 PM

lol
4:10
*carmine kills queen*
I killed the locust Queen! *stands up* SEE?!

**Swedish Dante** · 09-15-2011, 09:01 PM

Damn the locust queen moans like she's having an orgasm!? HAHAHAHA XD

thats what the locust retro charge is like LOL

**Skyllus vBi** · 09-15-2011, 09:01 PM

He does have an active reload for the second shot....But should that even boost the damage?

First shot I'm not sure on, second shot is 100% a sawed-off down.

I recall it being confirmed that it has no boost. The only advantage is a faster reload.

Yeah, they said that during the beta.

Plus, Quinn surely would have mentioned if an active boost had been added when he was talking about the changes since the beta. Then again, maybe he didn't know or it slipped his mind.

**Nickle n Dimin** · 09-15-2011, 09:04 PM

there is a day 1 update

**Time Victim** · 09-15-2011, 09:07 PM

I heard sexy moaning around 2:55

**Undead Paradox** · 09-15-2011, 09:57 PM

Look at about 5 minutes in, though. He's actually closer to the Queen, shoots her with a DBS shot and doesn't down her. There had to be a circumstance with the other two downs. I'm not concerned, TBH.

**Atomebendr** · 09-15-2011, 10:22 PM

Logical explanation: The game isn't updated yet.

**Hate the Sawed-Off** · 09-15-2011, 10:23 PM

I saw 2 gold gnashers in that video too so that that mean that TU1 is up?

OT - Hopefully the update will fix this. I don't want to have the same ol' Beta bull****.

**Schwarzeis** · 09-16-2011, 12:43 AM

Nononononononononononononononnonon-NO!

I thought they removed the bull**** downs?!

Wait for the first TU before you rage.

I'm assuming it will since the game went gold months ago, so they must not have had enough time to make the change. If its still there once the TU is downloaded I will join you and we shall rage together.

Yes.. We'll form a rage furnace that will burn stronger than any fire!

Anyways.. Cliff made it seem like the update was in there from the start, but eh.. I might've just mistook it
