Minuette Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 So I have been pondering sometime about dead bodies that can kill you, like when a dead body flies in the air and slams you, do you think it should kill you or take down your shields, I think it would be a cool idea since 1 out of 100 it would happen, but then you will start laughing at the irony as you got killed by a dead body. So should 343i make flying dead bodies kill you, or hurt you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Boo Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Hunter: Death Brute: Severe damage, however at high velocity, death. Elite: Severe damage, but at high velocity, death. Jackal/skirmisher:60- 80% shield damage Grunt:30-50% shield damage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Spartan: Severe damage at most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokin Shadowz Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Shield lowering at most. No death Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 A hunter could if at a high velocity. Others, what Smokin Shadowz said. Remember, these are still Spartans who can lift ODST pods and flip Tanks. I'm sure they can handle a brute flinging at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 As much as a flying body killing you would be great, I would have to go with severe damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStarRocket91 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I don't think there should be set damage for getting hit by certain types of enemies - if a Grunt hits you at a slow speed, for example, it shouldn't do the same damage as if it were jet-propelled into your face. Far better that, like vehicles, everything gets assigned a 'weight' value and then damage is calculated using that and the speed it was travelling upon impact. For example, let's say a Spartan has a weight of 1'W', and a grunt has a weight of 0.2'W'. Then let's say that a Spartan corpse needs to hit you at a speed of 10'S' to kill you at full Health and Shield. A Grunt, weighing five times less than a Spartan, would need to hit five times faster, or at 50'S' in order to do the same damage. Likewise, a Jackal might weigh 0.1'W' and a Hunter might weigh 4'W'. In this case, a Jackal needs to move at 100'S' to do the same damage, while a Hunter only needs to move at 2.5'S' to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuko 'Zarhamee Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Dead grunts actually can kill you. If their methane tank bursts, then they will go flying around for second, then explode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gotten killed by their tanks from far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INACTIVE Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 That would lead to some very interesting post-game chatter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veer Zamamai Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I think it should be involved. I remembered how fun it was and I think it should be added again to add a little more fun. I agree with previous post though, about the damage and that. Bullet Storm's seems to make more sense and seems more realistic to me.

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Brutes are bigger and heavier than Spartans. I don't think brutes are anywhere near 1000 pounds. Well, some bears are that heavy...actually, makes a bit of sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ODST Pods are extremely light and extremely easy to break (according to cannon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iTz Vplus2 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Ok, the only reference i have to this that is even close are the Care Packages from CoD, which can be funny when they kill you or anyone else really. So if that's funny, then a death by falling Spartan will be hilarious. I'm all for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
