Scooped by me >.>

Wait...haven't they always done that? It's something i've always loved about killing drones and hoverbots. Especially on Mr. Awesome cause I can reenact that scene from one of the CoH 3D trailers where Statesmen is flying at some drones and does air superiority to one and it explodes. I always turn on hover when around them so I can do the same move, it's alot of fun.
Edit: Oh you mean multiple times...ya ok that's cool.

It's extra fun during a Rikti Invasion; the gathering for the end phase fight becomes a mass of explosions.

Oh hey yeah. I saw this just a couple days ago. The entire team was like "wtf?" It's a rather awesome bug, I think. They should keep it that way.
So much fun, will be sad when it's gone.
It's less the constant boom than the "pop up from the floor and do it again" that gets me, really. I'm not sure if I like that better than the "Killed so fast they're still standing there pounding their fist" or not, though...
They make lots and lots of debris very quickly.
I thought I was just lagging when I saw that going on. That's happening for everybody, huh?
If I thought they wouldn't somehow get mad at me for wasting their time I'd /petition them to drag their feet on this bug.
And oh hey look, another thread for me to hype my third arc in!
Check my sig for the most juvenile fun to be had in this game outside of the teabag emote! Guaranteed to not be merely a "go. hunt. kil drones.", but it's not really Shakespeare either - just a short and sweet map, lots of go-boom and a couple of other things to blow up as well. About 12 plays so far and four stars.
*chips in with the plug for his arc as well*
*points to sig*
...I forgot what experience means.
I just wish I got xp for each explosion.
Hehe lots and lots of ads for this bug i need to try them all!!!

Don't we all 
Video for the uninformed 
I wish I got a video of the Rikti Invasion last night... it was like we were being bombarded from orbit... after all, it's the only way to be sure!

Council Hoverbots do it too. But they both (drones, hoverbots) stop doing it after a short while.
Still, very fun.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!
If I became a red name, I would be all "and what would you mere mortals like to entertain me with today, mu hu ha ha ha!" ~Arcanaville
fix'd that title for you.
Friend and I were doing the Midnighter's arc last night and one of the drones did this. First time I'd actually seen it occur, my teammate hadn't heard about before. We both thought it was hilarious.

That is because they hired Michael Bay as a dev.
I noticed it on July 3rd as well, thought it was a little "feature" they added as a nod to U.S. Independence Day.
They let micheal Bay be a dev for a day.
This bug is all sorts of funny.
This should never, ever get fixed. Explosions are awesome, everything should explode. I should be ungulfed in a six-story high fireball every time I hit an inspiration.

My teammates actually thought it was just because I was killing crowds of them that fast.
That made me feel good.

Then Goldeneye for the Nintendo 64 is just the game for you. Shoot a chair, it explodes. Shoot a table, it explodes. Good times.
They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!
