Wolfy5079 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 i've just finished playing a game in tu beta. i know that stickies wouldn't fly off anymore when you armor locked but what i didn't know was that they kill you through armor lock. when did this come into effect because i dont remembr seeing this on the list of fixes in the TU.

FIREN4 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I went through the same thing. Maybe not as dramatically though. I was playing, some guy has a "Plasma Launcher", he shoots like, four at me. I laugh so hard and I'm like, kapow! Armor Lock Baby and in like 2 seconds, before I could even finish pwning with words I go kaboom. It was a sad end. I'm happy they did this though, now I can do the exact opposite to other players, Mhuhahahaha! Nice Signature BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandiBunni Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Well you might not have looked carefully enough. It was announced as one of the changes they were making to the game. I'm personally glad to have it. If I manage to stick someone with a grenade, I don't want to have my kill taken from me just because they can press a button. I stuck them, I deserve the kill.

Spitfire Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I was like this: sticky to the face! Oh he went into armor lock ....*grenade xplosion* oh ok *I walk away wondering how that happened* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBarefootJedi Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Mine was about the same as lewis but ended with a sadistic chuckle when the guy started going into lock, then blam. Cue an "oh yeah, sweet" moment followed by previously mentioned sadistic chuckle. :guitar: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfy5079 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 oh i got no problem with it. i was just confused is all. i remember reading about the how armor lock wouldn't reject stickies anymore but i didn't see anything about them actually killing you lol.

A British Soul Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Yeah, if someone goes into armour lock, you can shoot them, grenade them, beat them down etc and there energy decreases dramaticly, so your amour lock will not last as long, there for you will die Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBarefootJedi Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I still just go with my good old tried and true hanging out for a couple extra seconds then tossing a grenade at their feet for when they come out of lock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer Of Flood Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 If you any grenade at people in amour lock then it will now dramatically reduce the duration/power of the armour lock. You will probably find that in your case someone else threw a frag grenade or a similtaneous grenade with the sticky that killed you and one reduced your armour lock to nothing and the sticky detonated similtaneously as your armour lock expired. Or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
