zudatron Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Anyone done this? I haven't seen it posted but I'm probably wrong. Fly a snowspeader over an AT-AT slowly and jump out on top. It's not easy because for some reason it ignores my exit vehicle command most of the time, but it's possible. I can't seem to jump high enough as a Dark Trooper so the Snowspeader looks like the only way. You have to continuously walk forward because you are always slipping as it moves forwards (probably because the game didn't design for AT-AT surfing!). That makes it hard to crouch or lie down, which would be the obvious way to snipe from up there. You can perch on the neck of it, possibly even the head, but those places are small and it's easy to slip off. I haven't thought of a huge strategic advantage of being up there. Anyone have any ideas? I set a Wookie timebomb on top but unfortunately I fell off and it didn't do much damage anyway. There has to be some advantage! Try it and let me know what you discover.

Sam Fisher Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I've seen DarkTroopers jump up on it, but not the Snow Speeders... interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Dark Jedi Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Hmmm might try that. True TK always corrects the Wookiee spelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pho3nix Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Well that's fine, I don't like wrong-spellers either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pho3nix Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Hmm...I haven't tried that, usually i just concentrate on the Snow Speeder's to bring down AT-AT's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subs0nic Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Getting a Vanguard up there might be useful for imperials to defend against speeders? (easy to do this with a hack to give the Emipre a speeder ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primalunderdog Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I just think it's to frustrating to stay on top,i just stik to the front line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman304 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I think to jump out of a moving ship, you can't be the pilot. Switching to the co-pilot or gunner position should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zudatron Posted October 12, 2004 Author Share Posted October 12, 2004 You can jump out as the pilot. It would be hard to jump out as the gunner because you need to see exactly where you are going. Maybe as a Vanguard you could run to the front of the head and drop mines in front of it. Careful though, normally when you drop a mine while an enemy vehicle is around you DIE. As a soldier you might be able to rain terror on the spawning troops below while doing damage to the AT-AT by dropping grenades off the front. But most of all it's just cool to surf an AT-AT, and such a slap in the face to the Imperials to ride their helpless prize. Ever since my original post I've always fallen off the side as soon as I jumped out. As the <emphasis on spelling>Wookiee</emphasis on spelling> I was left to attach time bombs to the heels of the AT-AT. They do little damage. Anyone found a good use for the time bombs? I prefer grenades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
