Don't kill the astronaut, What did he ever do to you?

[way2g00d]

Okay this really is puzzling, I have tested three cases and he never glitched out. My friend did another one similar to my case 1 and he glitched.

Case 1: (co-op ) DO not kill him till Round 20. Killed him past 20 each time he spawned

Result: He did not glitch.

Case 2: (Solo) Killed him each time he spawns, threw a gersch at him several times past round 10

Result: He did not glitch.

Case 3: (co-op) Killed him each time he spawned and threw gerch at him.

Result: He did not glitch.

Case 4:(tested by Sithbas- co-op): Killed him several times and threw a gersch at him when a teammate was down.

Result: He glitched out, he started MOONWALKING when a gersch was thrown close to him. Apparently a teammate was down at the same time, may be this triggered it?? Don't think because in Case 1 we also tested this and he did not glitch out.

Conclusion: Just don't kill him too much. He is a nice guy.

I make a point to never kill my astronaut, and he'll still glitch out on me almost every single time.

That's weird. This map has so many holes.

The video doesn't show gershes flying at him

I can't really believe that, but I'm gonna test that.

Anyone else find the astronaut dancing?

He "dances" by raising his right hand and standing in the same area until he is killed or Gersch'd.

That glitch is done by staying on the pads in the biodome until the cosmonaut spawns.

[Epsilon7]

Really? I thought it was that he had to spawn in the biodome and by some luck he danced.

This, soviet, is, complete.

Tom, I am working on the video, I been lil busy playing MW3 kill confirmed lately I was pointing out that he is the same astronaut first seen in the game until round 80+ and that is what I was trying to imply that if we don't kill him he wont gersch out. In general we all know that He glitches out no matter where he is in bio dome. But if you look at 6:05 2 out of 3 gersches were thrown close to him.

I will post a video soon. Or you will find out yourself with little research.At 4:57,7:19, 8:05, 15:56 you see the same astronaut "pink unicorn" which implies he was not killed.At 12:05 (round 92) you see "jZelinski".

I think it's round-based, when I play solo on Moon I pretty much never kill the Astronaut, maybe the first time I throw a Gersch he'll be fine but 2nd time he'll start glitching out.

[Tom852]

So, that would mean 1 gersh in the round he spawned is ok?

[Superhands]

Possible, haven't tested it in any way though so really can't be sure.

What did the astronaut ever do to me you ask? He decided to give me a quick hug when a full train of zombies were behind me on round 46.

Off topic note....^^^^^^ post was posted at 1:15 I love stuff like that because the 115 is going straight to my head.

[way2g00d]

Looks like its patched. , I tested solo till 18 rounds killing him each round and throwing gersch several times but he didn't glitch out.

I tried co-op WITHOUT killing him and throwing gersches and he did not glitch out till round 30. I have recordings will post very soon..

[way2g00d]

Posted the video check it out.

[Tom852]

interesting

Astronaut moon walking is patched I believe. Since I tried this on solo and the outcome is same. He doesnt glitch anymore. I even tried killing him!!

It isn't patched he glitched on me yesterday.

[Tom852]

Me and Hands saw him glitched too.

[Phantom]

what "glitch" does he do? I NEVER pay attention to him

[way2g00d]

He moonwalks when you throw a gerch. It. Weird I can't get it any more. Need to work bit more on this I guess ...

[Zkreym]

Apparently he'll usually glitch out on me when I pass round 25-30ish I think last game I killed him twice and he still glitched.

He also did that fist-pump glitch after he started moonwalking.

It happened to me when I was on round 41 and he stayed like that for 2 rounds and unexpectedly started moonwalking again and we didn't shoot at him or throw a gersh.

Other times he wouldn't glitch at all.

[MixMasterNut]

I've wondered if shooting the Cosmonaut with the Wave Gun is what triggers the glitch?

That might explain why he seems less likely to glitch out in the early rounds when compared to round 30+. It's a theory I still need to field test.

Dougie, I assure you he won't glitch out(moonwalk). Just don't kill him on purpose. A friend of mine made it to 99 co-op and 99 on solo just doing this. He accidentally fired mustang and sally and killed him becausee he had the same health from round one, He came back next round but did not glitch out. Imagine just hacking the drops in biodome and not worrying about him glitching out. The trick is to keep him by the little stair case by claymores by going around that location when your horde is ready to be killed.

My opinion is that it's a glitch, there isn't anything that causes or prevents it. Sometimes that's the way glitches are. I think you guys are all over thinking this one.

[way2g00d]

I guess I am wasting my breath on this one .. I've explained enough...
