Every. Single. Round. I swear to God. We set up a perfectly good barricade line, got turrets covering every angle, and then BAM, door wide open, Runner sprints in, murders the ComTech, and vanishes again.
And THEN some random PFC strolls in, looks at the body, says “lol,” and goes back to sorting his backpack for five minutes. Why are you like this?
Close the door. I beg you. I am on my knees. CLOSE. THE. DOOR.
joe left it open calm down
the fact of the matter is leaving cades open actually causes no issues apart from lessers getting in. if a cadeline falls, it’s because nobody was there to hold it and close the door behind the xenos.
IM SORRY
I have only done it a few…hundred…times
wake up babe new copypasta just dropped
It was me. I am terribly sorry
It’s all CL that roleplays as a bus driver on a colony truck. Gotta get these marines to the beach, afterall.Vehicles automaticly open cades on their path, and boy-oh-boy, I’m not getting out of my truck to close them.
All i see here is cadehugger state of mind. You should always keep cades open so t3/queen lags and walks in and you close the cade behind them earning free kill.
I will not apologize.
I point at the person who leaves it open twenty times until they go all the way back, close it, get on their knees and kiss the entire cadeline in front of the Comtech who built them. It is only the least they can do!
All the CO’s should also enforce this!!!
Amy Sommer keeps the FOB door open.
I received a direct fax from the real genuine Bob Cross telling me to open every folding cade I see and who am I to reject his orders
Amy Sommer doesnt leave doors open, they fucking blast the doors into plasteel with their shotgun rather than exert even a single fucking joule of energy to adhere to basic societal expectations like an uncivilised animal.
Source: they do it every round in front of me 
Late join in highpop. Land at lz and see 7 lines of cades open, beeing a chad and a damn hero i close them all behind me while i go to the front.
Best part of story: When i landed on lz i was not alone so the person behind me open up all the cades behind me again. All i can think of was, god i love cm with it’s chaotic features.
my bad turns around and opens the rest of the cades then charges to front screaming his copy pasta * OO FUCKING RAHH *
I actually wish players would leave them open more often. It’s a literal deathtrap if a xeno gets in and someone closes it behind them. Easy free kill.
Leaving the cades down when active combat is happening also improves combat flow and the ability for marines to engage and secure kills. It’s not a problem for the cades to be down when they’re properly manned and fighting is happening in the open space in front of them (as it should be).
And it’s a pain in the ass for me to open 30 doors just to get out of the fob.
The only situation I’ve seen where the doors are left open and its awful and clearly marines being stupid is when squad morale broke and everyone is running away. That’s when you need someone to have the forbearance to stop running and try to close the cade first, and that’s the most common situation that the cades being down is a problem. (e.g. evac is called and everyone abandons 2-3 layers of cades leaving all the doors open so queen can literally just walk up to the dropship)
In almost every other situation, -especially active fighting in front of the cadeline- I want the cades DOWN. I sometimes build cadelines and expressly and intentionally leave out the doors so people can’t close them - nothing but an expendable and useful firing point. Marine psychology dramatically changes when they don’t have doors to close: They become 99% more effective killing machines.
Ask yourself how many times you’ve seen marines cadehugging when they would be better off actually fighting? Yeah. They do that because they have DOORS to COWER BEHIND.
No doors, no cowering. Get in the fucking fight marine.
A true engineer doesn’t take any materials! They just fill themselves with breach charges, C4 and XM51 mags! OORAH!!!
This person is either a xeno plant or a modern Sun Tzu.
There is nothing in between.
There is a balance somewhere. Low pop, leaving cades open, only a doctor and 1 or 2 marines currently in LZ? that death trap turns into a xeno feast.
