Sniper Wasps.

Hit your black button to go into binocular view. You can only fire them from your binoculars (R trigger).

I'm looking for those little buggers. Where do you find them?

Dipstikk 03-13-2005 02:23 PM

You have to buy 'em. Sorry. They regenerate after Stranger becomes Steef and gets the breeder bag.

Mojo 03-14-2005 07:39 AM

And after he gets the breeder bag, the sniper wasps will be in crates as well...

I found sniper wasps in crates even before Stranger turned into steef.

Xavier 03-16-2005 10:58 AM

that's normal, you can buy binoculars before turning into steef

I liked the way a sniper wasp to the chest of a wolvark killed it. They saved my arse on ocassion...

duveaux 03-23-2005 09:35 AM

It is kinda annoying that if you're used to the wasps and the binoculars that you can't use them when you restart the game...
I think it would be nicer if you could have a sniper bee extendor clip or a bigger ammo bag wich made you hold even more sniper bees, I am ou of them in a few shots :(

Ummmm...you might want to edit that with a spoiler warning, just in case.

Dipstikk 04-02-2005 04:08 PM

In case someone whines about the eebul Dippy-the-Stikk posting an eebul spoiler? No-ho-ho no no. There's been ample time to get the game, the game has been out EVERYWHERE for a month or so now, and besides, this thread is a spoiler Deathtrap. :)
I'll change it if a Mod tells me to.

P.S. I'm not mad at you, Paco, but this "walking on/around eggshells" (however the expression goes) with spoilers is driving me up the wall. UP THE WALL, I say.

Paco_the_Taco 04-02-2005 07:13 PM

Sorry if I'm being annoying. It's just that I myself didn't have the pleasure of finding out the two major plot twists on my own (I failed to notice the small note written next to a downloadable trailer for the game that stated "spoiler disclaimer"), and I was really upset about it. I just don't want any other people to have to go through that.

Where did you find them??
I first bought them in the black market but I didn't knew how to use them too. After I've watched the live ammo movie of sniper wasps I saw that you could enter the sniper screen by presseng a single button. Before I saw the movie I thought you'd had to do it using your D-pad os. Luckily I found out about the black button.

stingbee 04-18-2005 07:12 AM

black market is the first place to find them isnt it then later onin new yolk city the general store has them

duveaux 04-18-2005 08:27 AM

No, Bounty of... (I believe) explosives McGee there's a tower wich you can destroy but if you dont and climb in it you can find a crate of sniperbees...

Moderators! Please delete the following message. Thank you.

Weapons of Choice

Stranger walked towards the gate at the far end of town. Almost each town that Stranger had been to had a gate of some kind. The reason behind this was simple: the Clakkerz that resided in the town were all cowards.

The gatekeeper was up in a security tower, watching closed-circuit television. Stranger could hear the laugh track on the show as he climbed up the ladder to the top of the security tower.

The Clakker, absorbed in the show he was watching, didn’t hear Stranger coming up behind him.

“Howdy,” Stranger said. The Clakker literally fell to the floor, screaming in terror.

“Bukaw! I’m sorry, sir! I’ll get back to work! Whoa, wait a gol-danged minute, you ain’t my boss!” the Clakker thrust his wing to the door. “Get outta here, ya mangey, flea-bitten—HOIK!”

Stranger grabbed the Clakker by the neck. “Open the gate so’s I can capture that Outlaw,” he growled. “You got’s three seconds.”

Stranger dropped the bird. The Clakker whimpered and scrambled to the control panel, pushing a few buttons and pulling a lever.

The huge gate slowly slid open down below the tower. “Good choice, feather-head.” Stranger climbed back down the tower.

A Clakker with a nametag called to the one in the tower. “Hey, Willy! Did ya find that Bounty Hunter yet? He needed that gate open.”

“Well, um… he found me.” The Clakker in the security tower said.

Stranger walked out of town, into the hot plains of the savanna. He picked up a rock. It was time to hunt.

This hunt, however, was the hunt for Stranger’s ammunition. His weapon of choice was a wrist-mounted, double-barreled, semi-automatic, retractable crossbow. He hated guns, the smell of gunpowder made his stomach turn.

But Stranger didn’t use arrows or bullets (thought the thought that those might be more useful choices had crossed his mind). In place of them, he used (of all things) small animals with different volatile abilities. He humorously referred to these as “Live Ammo.”

Stranger had a mental checklist of each animal. Chippunks, Bolamites, and Fuzzles in case the bounty got out of hand. That was all he needed for now.

Stranger found a nest of Chippunks, each of the rodents chattering away at each other. Chippunks were one of the few animals that were blessed with the gift of gab. Unfortunately, they used this gift to yell profanities and insults at passer-bys.

“Hey, I’d watch out if I were you,” a Chippunk said to another. “There’s some douche with a rock and it looks like he’s going to—YOW!”

Stranger hated people who spoiled the stealth approach. He knocked out the one who was warning the other.

The Chippunk was stunned, but unharmed. Stranger scooped up the fat, legless rodent into his hand and dropped it into his ammo bag.

Note: I’ll add more soon.

Euh!?
I didn't read you post fully, but I have a stranger feeling you posted it in the wrong thread...

Dipstikk 04-18-2005 01:57 PM

AH! **** me.

Sorry, guys. I was at school, probably in a rush.
