I as queen wake up and get told there are headhunters on the ground after I get told this many of my Xenos tell me that they are insulting us from the get-go after this, the Xenos attack. Fast forward to the beach, I saw a pred attacking multiple of my Xenos - which was one of the preds that attacked us earlier. I went and screeched and slashed the pred. In hoping to get this all to end. I leave to go attack FOB. On my way to attack, I found the rest of the preds, and I called them dishonorable (Not referring to the HC) After which every pred started to attack. I screech a couple of times to where we get to hydro. While in hydro At least one pred starts to attack me while cloaked. and continues to attack me till my death. After which after talking in dead chat they claimed I was referring to the honor code which made me temporally dishonorable.
Evidence:
logs need to be pulled but many others witnessed what happened.
Hi. Thwu’Kril-Kat Ktal’t here. Wasn’t involved in this situation at all. Understandable that you listed me though, there were a LOT of preds that round.
Jokes aside, I was the predator that you called “dishonorable”. I told you beforehand that “if you dare raise a claw at me again, I will slay you”
Moments after, you called me dishonorable, an Ancient Yautja in the presence of two of my own clan members and another predator.
I have no regret in killing you and I’d do it again, as it is what’s expected of me and what I would want to do.
You became temporarily dishonorable by just walking up to us and calling me dishonorable, I killed you for it. Even the whitelist maintainer called you dishonorable.
Throughout the entire round I did not attack a single person that hadn’t attacked me first.
I had three kills throughout it, one being you, one was a boiler calling me “dishonorable” and I don’t remember the third one.
Hi, Elite Zi’Stra Nhon here. I was still a marine by the time this all occurred, Drake ‘Dietcola’ Di’Angelo, I only joined as a Yautja after permaing (roughly 2-6 minutes after your death). Therefore, I was not involved.
Was burrower this round. Can confirm queen’s reports of preds constantly harassing and hunting xenos before the queen died. Of note I observed a queen order to stop fighting preds early, which a warrior told a pred, but they still ended up fighting, though I did not observe who first struck.
I consider this detrimental to the round when predators hunt a significant number of xenos including slashing the queen to death while invisible.
You indirectly insulted the Predators by saying because they “attacked first”, they were dishonorable.
To a Xenomorph, “attacking first” is normal because Xenomorphs are killing machines.
So, the insult wasn’t against the act of “attacking first”, but because they as Predators attacked first.
Knowing how a Predator ought to act is metagaming the Honor Code.
My saying you attacked first is they attacked first. Why would I order my hive to do something I would not want them to do I almost always leave preds alone because they will wipe us out. So saying You attacked first is in reference I was not going to attack then you attacked us
As a passive observer, I watched the hive and YOU jump Rino at the beach north of medical and hydro, You screeched him for defending himself from a Defender who I watched slash first. Than I watched the event occur north of Engineering and the Ydgdrassil Tree. Than mentioned dishonorable. I asked you in d chat and you avoided that question after. Unless I didn’t see you clarify that?
As a Xenomorph (even a Queen), you would not expect the same treatment from Marines: live and let live.
So, that implies as a Xenomorph Queen, you understood Predators were different in some way—that they ought not to attack first. This is metagaming the Honor Code.
This does not make Sence. You can tell the difference hosts. On top of it we are a hive mind everything one xeno knows we all know. So if another hive looks and says oh yea not attacking them shows they don’t attack us I would know that. As queen I know the difference between honorable and dishonorable
The council has come to a verdict on this case, and has determined that:
Xenos do not know the honor code exists. The queen does understand honor as a concept but they do not know that it matters to predators. But yet, the queen player chose to use the one word that would relate to the honor code.
Our present HC doesn’t mention that dishonorable tools are banned (for hive offenses) and we recently voted to actually write down the permission to use dishonorable tools.
What this means, in essence, is that you were using meta knowledge of the honor code, something that is dishonorable. The use of dishonorable weapons was also permitted, as a hive offensive allows for.
