GOOMBA.
That is all, besides quad racing.

I feel these need a little explanation.
We definitely need to cut back on the shunning. If only we didn’t hate everyone so much. It’s a complicated problem.
- Rip open portals to hell
Temporary portals! Basically we’d like to eliminate an enemy or two by somehow tearing open the walls between realities. Let’s say I’m getting chased by a Hornet and I’m desperately trying to get away in my Badger. Suddenly I mutter a few words of power and a giant gaping hole tears open in the very fabric of reality, sucking my enemy into a world of unimimaginable horror.
That sounds like fun, right?
Freeze time
Ride jeep hood - the old bullet speed trick.
RTCW and W:ET both had odd physics engines that you could mess with from time to time, especially with certain mods. With the proper trickjump moves, you could leap over a fifty-foot chasm. We fully expect ET:QW to have its own unique laws of physics. I suspect we’ll have figured out how to freeze time by day three of the demo.
As for the “old bullet speed trick” that one’s really quite simple. Premium hops into the driver’s seet of a jeep. I jump onto the hood and pull out my assault rifle. I fire a few bullets, and then Premium hits the gas, driving after the bullets I’ve already fired. Then I fire more bullets at a higher velocity into those bullets, thus transferring the combined kinetic energy into the first bullets, resulting in an explosion that can render time itself obsolete!
That’s assuming that Splashdamage remembers to put the “rendering time obsolete” feature into the game.
- Gliding, bouncing in the air. Surviving super high falls.
Self explanatory, really. Finding tricks to survive extreme drops is the goal of every true hero.
- Magic, David Copperfield-esque, not David Blaine
Holding your breath isn’t magic!
I plan on shooting at a Strogg and then when he turns around to shoot at me I’ll gesture to my lovely assistant. While she’s dancing around seductively, that’s when I duck into a trap door and bring out a Bengal Tiger to take my place. It’s the tactic Patton used against the old Desert Fox himself.
- Catapults, trebuchets.
You never know when the dreaded Castle Wolfenstein may show up to attack. We’ll need to be ready.
- Moving at super high speeds.
We’ll be faster than Carl Lewis and Gandhi combined!
- Space-elevator created from the debris of wrecked vehicles.
Arthur C. Clarke knew it, and now you know it too: Space-Elevators are our ticket off this rinky-dink planet. When the Strogg invade, we’re not taking them down until we can take the fight to them. Space Elevators will make this possible. Jonesey and Jonese Machine Parts Ltd. is already working on blueprints to build a space elevator out of the burned out remainds of a Buffalo Transport. We should be ready for mass production by 2012.
- Speak with the fishes. “Manatee, what’s goin’ on?”
If the whales could save us from the aliens in Star Trek IV, then the manatees probably have a few tricks up their blubbery sleeves too. The ocean is full of allies just waiting to come to our aid. What are the Strogg going to do when we have the Coelacanth on our side? Shoot them? HA! Don’t make me laugh.
- Desperation moves, like the suicide grenade only superb.
Like stroybombing someone on the ground. Superb.
- Hypnosis. Propoganda.
We’ve got the fish on our side, now we just need to get the rest of the humans there too.
- Turn enemies into pillars of salt.
You can’t beat the classics.

I will investigate all of the possible ways to “be killed to death”. If a medic heals me, I’ll be “lived to life”, no doubt.
