Spy_BlazerX Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) Everyone knows those weak grineer that use some kind of grapple to pull you towards them. It really gets annoying to watch yourself being pulled from 20m and in the meantime shot by a bunch of other grinners... So my suggestion would be to implement some kind of counter-defence, meaning that if you are caught, you can quickly tap defined key to break pulling(key will flash near the bottom of the screen, and by quick tapping it, you can break the grapple). I know that being pulled does no damage, can be avoided, but hell, it's annoying! Edited July 4, 2013 by Spy_BlazerX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierria Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Or they could let us shoot them, which personally I think would be cooler and easier. The annoying part is that you can do absolutely nothing once they've got a hook on you. No gun, no cutting the line, or anything else, no nada.

Duelshock Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I love when there's like 3 or 4 scorpions together and you get chain pulled for 10 seconds, then the last one drags you next to a heavy gunner which then knocks you down for another 3 seconds. SOOOOO FUNNNN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValhaHazred Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Man, you think thats bad, they where initially hitscan and had perfect aim even through walls! They really aren't that bad anymore, but I wouldn't mind allowing us to cut the rope or shoot during a knockdown animation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The annoying part is that you can do absolutely nothing once they've got a hook on you. No gun, no cutting the line, or anything else, no nada. Definitely this. You should be able to shoot them to prevent them from pulling you further. Basically their ability has the potential to be a REALLY long stun and even pull you in the middle of enemies. It's like a short range teleport + stun. It would be nice to be able to counter it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroPhobic Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 (edited) I know this really doesn't help the problem addressed here, which I agree are the most annoying mob in the entire game by far! I equipped a handstand (i think that is the mod name) and can't wait for these annoying little punks now, I fall down for a second or so and spring up and while they are still in the pull stance run up and stick a gun in their mouth (and giggle) and pull the trigger until it goes click. I wish we had a certain button press to cut someone straight down the middle and let the two halves split apart and fall the the ground, because I would use that EVERY time!

veracityoffate Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I don't like the idea of a timed button press, but I think being able to shoot while being pulled would be way better than being completely paralyzed. It only makes sense considering how you can shoot while wall running, jumping, and sliding. Perhaps an accuracy penalty could keep it from nerfing the scorpion too much.

ValhaHazred Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I think if they let you shoot while on the ground would be fine (including when knocked down by other sources). How about secondaries only (as if you where bleeding out), press jump to stand up and heres the kicker; you draw aggro, since the enemies see you as weak and helpless.

Dazko Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME SORT OF BLOCKING MECHANIC IN THIS GAME, OH WOE THIS DAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tierria Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME SORT OF BLOCKING MECHANIC IN THIS GAME, OH WOE THIS DAY Make that a blocking mechanic that actually works worth a damn. Seriously, only blocking directly from the front is absurdly pointless. I'd be better off shooting the jerk and actually dealing with the problem, rather than sit there and hope my Tenno actually feels like blocking, which seems to be very rarely.

ShadowGhosting Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Come back after you've fought 3+ Grineer Commanders at the same time, then learn the true meaning of annoying. You'll start pulling your hair out after a few straight minutes of being Switch Teleport spamed in all directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
