Windbow Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Well, this caught me by surprise. I was moving along and then I heard a zipline being used. I thought, hmm, a friend joined me? Then I saw a lancer sliding along and shooting at me! I was laughing so hard I did not manage to get a screen-cap! Nice one, DE. Made my day.

Atheau Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I saw this happening as well. It was a shotgun grunt. He was running from me. I just had to stop and stare for a minute. Got shot a few times because I was distracted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 You've never heard of Zippy the grineer? Along time ago a grineer zipped down a zipline... made friends with one of the tenno on a squad, then the other three saw him and gunned him down... that poor Tenno lost a good friend...

Akateko Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I got surprised by a zip line grineer too, i heard the sound but thought it was a bug. Until he started shooting at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorinho20 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) I saw Grineer napalm doing that. Nice touch. Next I wanna see enemies doing wallruns. Edited July 22, 2013 by zorinho20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windbow Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 I saw Grineer napalm doing that. Nice touch. Next I wanna see enemies doing wallruns. Heavies can zipline too? Wow. That's some sturdy wire they have on those grineer ships... I just wish we can jump as high as some the grineer seem to do so effortlessly. No wallruns required. Just jump up a couple stories. It's like they've got jet packs or something! :/ edit: Excalibur bragging not required. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADJCENT Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I noticed that too, I guess it makes no sense for Grineer to put ziplines there for their enemies to use if they can't use them does it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulzscha Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Yep, noticed this for a long time now, it's particularly hilarious in the asteroid tilesets, waiting for them to zip almost all the way down - then greeting them with a shotgun blast to the face. :D Grineer in general have been getting more agile now as they added more animations, I was surprised when they could jump up extreme heights in some Galleon areas - almost an Excal super jump.

Hayden11121 Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I noticed that too, I guess it makes no sense for Grineer to put ziplines there for their enemies to use if they can't use them does it? Everything in their ships is for us. The badly damaged vents, the easily hackable consoles, the convenient zipline, the extraction room. They figured out that if they make it easy for us we leave quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iValianT Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 It's even funnier when you watch a 4meter tall gunner ride a thin string of zipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slicshuter Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I was playing on Tolstoj solo just now for morphics, when, after killing Vor, I was running away and I heard the zipline noise. I turned around and may have seen a Grineer drop to the ground on the other side of a chasm. Do they seriously use the ziplines? That's hilarious.
