Yes, I said it, Tank-atapult. The reason why? Well I found out something, imo, hilarious that the scorpion can be used for.
In a nut shell, the scorpion can catapult a player a good distance, and I mean Really good, if said player is standing on an upside down scorpion, being flipped right side up.
Now its not as simple as standing on top of hit and hitting the button to flip it. One has to stay on the tank the whole time for it to happen. It may sound impossible due to the treads, but its not, you phase through the treads as it flips… most of the time, there are times though you will not pass through them and it will simply knock you off.
I have a film uploaded on my fileshare of this. You’ll see the occasional times I said that it wont work because I didnt pass through the treads. I’m not sure if “search by file share” works, if it does my gamertag is the exact same as my username here.
For those who are unsure its: DARKdr3dnaut07 & the clip is " Tank catapult"
While I’m on the subject of “crazy vehicle physics”, there is a second clip which, if you havent seen the recent “Fails of the Weak” by Roosterteeth or you have not seen it yourself, depicts a return of the “warp speed” covie vehicles. Though its of a tamer speed, it was enough to destroy my wraith. The clip is called “Its back…”.
ps. if you are wondering what I’m doing in the wraith, I was testing that gap made by the struts to see how snuggly the wraith would fit through :p.
