Yeah... they're shy - it's... probably not working as it should be. :unsure:

Just as an FYI, the only enemies that should be able to stomp you are:

Cerberus Trooper
Atlas
Geth Trooper
Cannibal

and for them to stomp you, they need to run up to you and give you the boot... except the Atlas, who feeds you the drill hand... or the Cannibal who pukes on you (this one is currently kind of finnicky though). :happy:

 thank you for the clarification, this thread was beginning to make me think id be getting stomped by everything from banshees to geth turrets.

This.
SO much....

*whew*

I've only played two rounds of gold since the change, but does it make that much of a difference? It's not as if there are that many of the basic troops in the latter waves of gold. Atlas is so slow, I think I can count the number of times I've been executed by one (on silver) on one hand.

The cannibal execution is currently bugged. I expect they're looking into it for an upcoming patch.

Personally, I don't mind it. Makes Gold more challenging for those first couple waves. Seeing as the Atlas is the only executing enemy that spawns after wave 5 on Gold, it's a pretty small change.

exactly, ive never seen or heard of any other enemy that could execute you, i know the cannibals are suppose to but still haven't seen it since the update. i did get executed by an Atlas earlier and was like SWEET!!! i totally forgot they could do it and was happy to see it work in platinum, reminded me of the old days in bronze and silver...

Yeah, I was stomped by an Atlas today on gold. That was a surprise. I don't know why it was necessary to change this, but oh well.

I swear Atlas have always been able to stomp, I've been stomped long before the changes today and I don't even play platinum.

Run up to us? Are you kidding? :huh:
Cerberus&Geth Troopers and Cannibals are the majority among the enemies, so I really do not think they'll have to "run" for showing me their shoes number.

But now I'm happy cause I know that an Atlas can wear a 28, 28 1/2...:D

Well I can definitely say the Atlas thing is not true.  An Atlas will execute you simply by walking close to your corpse.

I am also almost certain Atlas could execute previously on Gold, but as I said above, I think it was simply coincidence that the Atlas trodding on your corpse counts as an execution.  They're apparently supposed to drill punch you for the execution (which is the "Ground Slam" melee attack).

Hmm, well that's not supposed to be the case. I'll poke some folks at the office tomorrow and see if we can get some more info.

I've seen this too, on a lot of occasions. It doesn't even change animations or anything like that. If it's close enough to where it would've actually executed you, it just keeps walking and you die instantly anyway. It's not a huge issue, but it's certainly a nuisance.

Atleast in imo, reapers shouldn't be able to execute. It seems only fair with the sheer amount of punishment they can dish out with ravangers+brutes/husks. Plus, i always thought it was kind of their shtick; Have overwhelming swarm and rush tactics, but be physically unable to execute.

Something else to tell them; today I saw my friend get executed by an atlas when there were NO atlases (atli?) anywhere near his body. Closest one was about 20 paces away. There was no lag, just 3 of us playing, all on the east coast of Australia.

It will probably be difficult to reproduce now that they are programmed to actually execute the Drill Punch manuever for the execution, but if it's possible, try playing the game with the previous set of coding.  Get downed right in front of an Atlas (but NOT insta-killed) and there's probably a 60-70% chance he will execute you as he walks over your body.

Yep, that's it right there.

They haven't on gold. I don't play bronze or silver, so maybe they do on those difficulties? I play against Cerberus on gold a lot and I've never been stomped, until tonight. My friends were also stomped by the basic troopers.

If Atlas' are supposed to kill you by using their hand, that isn't working as intended. They just walk on you.

I guess someone thought the Cannibal move was maybe too gross and secretly sabotaged it?

Seems like the stomping is much more prevalent than a few months ago. Enemies make a b-line towards you and don't hesitate.

To be fair, Banshee's execute enough as is, even resorting to Magnet Hands from across the room, don't need to add Cannibals to the party. Posted Image

I have noticed that sometimes a regular bleed out will trigger the "[player] was executed by [enemy]" message.

Yeah I always assumed Atlas would execute you when they walk over you, that's whats happened to me in some silvers and golds.

Instakills and stomping are the only reasons why I may possibly loose a match
