The DOGI Laser
« on: December 29, 2006, 09:05:19 pm »

Has anyone else noticed that when the Chenjesu's DOGI laser (at least that's what I think it's called… it's the battery stealing thing…) makes a little yipping, puppy noise when it smacks a ship? Is that a coincidence or did someone purposely do that?

As a matter of fact, yes it was done that way on purpose. Cheesy

DOGI is even pronounced the same way as doggy too.  It stands for Deenergizing Offensive Guided Interceptor.

Even with the Eluder's Backward Utilized Tracking Torpedo, with the farting sound it makes when it fires it.

The source code even refers to it as "doggy".

I usually referred to them as 'Mutts' in melee.
