Preds able to blow up infected

Post by Renomaki » 15 Jun 2017, 22:56

Bug Description: In a recent round I had, I was a predator who, after getting much too cocky, got ambushed by a hugger and shamefully infected. As the aliens dragged me to their hiding place, I refused to accept such a fate. I had to regain my honor somehow, so I called out for help, hoping a fellow pred could help me before I burst.

As I waited, I stared at my big red button, and... Out of curiosity, I decided to see just what would happen if I did try to blow my bracer. It is said that for whatever reason, you are denied the ability to self-destruct if infected. Yet, when I did press it, instead of getting denied, it.. .Worked?


Steps to reproduce:
1. Get infected as a predator
2. As soon as you are awake, try to blow your bracer
3. listen as the bracers begin to beep, and then you shortly explode per normal.
Sometimes, bravery comes from the most unlikely sources.

Yeah, I was there to see this one. It was a bit odd.

I was also there, I personally infected the pred and heard they couldn't blow up, mind boggling.

I witnessed this, me and reno were hunting when the queen and her vanguard appeared, the screech stunned us, reno got his mask knocked off, and a timely drone slapped a hugger on his face and dragged him away. I died trying to get reno back, but there was no question he was infected.
