Talk:Monster infighting

As I read this it would be possible to get two Cyberdemons to infight with each other if they caused each other damage with barrels.

Has anyone ever done that? 210.86.119.59 03:21, 26 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * That would be interesting, because Cyberdemon rockets don't hurt other Cyberdemons. Fraggle 14:49, 26 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * It's not possible since Cyberdemons are immune to all blast damage, including barrel explosions. Janizdreg 16:11, 2 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Assistance would be appreciated concerning the accuracy of this edit to the Wikipedia version of this article. Fredrik 10:31, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)


 * The Lost Soul vs. Lost Soul part is correct (this phenomenon is extremely annoying to the marine, because if you're trying to conserve ammo through monster infighting, and Lost Souls are involved, you usually have to re-start the fight over and over and over and over again).


 * I am not sure that a Lost Soul fighting another monster remembers its target better &mdash; rather, the other monster will keep attacking the Lost Soul until it eventually turns away from the player again.


 * I don't believe the AI part for a minute. To use an obvious example, doesn't the Cyberdemon on MAP08: Tricks and Traps fire straight into the crowd without waiting for you to be exposed?

 * Yeah, I used the map08 example as well to motivate partially reverting the edit. Fredrik 15:46, 16 Jan 2006 (UTC)
