There u go people.
First barrel (exploded with pistol) does NO damage.
Second one from the same place, takes out all my hp....

Damn.. wtf? That could explain some of the physics deaths ive had in lockdown actually.

Friggin wierd that is. D:

I think this could be very usefull in a match

yeah ... that's why I'm making it publicly...
What can you learn from this?
-DON'T explode a barrel which is close to you with an orb.
-If you see someone near one...you might wanna shoot and orb instead of exploding the barrel in other ways. After all, making the enemy suicide is kind of the same as killing them. One awards you with 1 frag, the other makes the enemy lose 1.
-etc etc

yea i noticed this for a long time but never really cared i like to have fun with it and just blow myself up sometimes

You can teamkill when FF is off with barrels and orbs.

hadn't really thought about that.... but it would be fun to use on some random tdm server

I instantly thought of a server but I rather just keep my mouth shut.

Yeah, it's best to keep that stuff to PMs and Steam messages.
