Like Firecrackers, Bombers can be dangerous if mixed in with other enemies.

It is not recommended to use a shotgun, the grenade launcher, or rocket launcher at close range against Bombers, as they will explode upon death, which can cause moderate damage to the player if they are within the blast radius.Bombers are not immune to their own grenades, which can lead to clever tactics of causing one to kill themselves or another Bomber or beheaded enemy, such as Kamikazes.However, this is not as powerful as a Beheaded Kamikaze's death explosion, which deals 30 base damage at most. If the player is close to the death explosion, being caught in the radius can take off a bit of health and armor, especially on higher difficulty levels. Melee attacks are not recommended, as the Bomber can still throw grenades at a short distance when approaching.The Bomber's grenades can be shot in mid-air, should consequences be dire.Small and large groups should be dealt with in haste, as their explosive bombs are more powerful than a Rocketeer or Firecracker missile.He will take a grenade out of his pouch, pull the pin off it, and then throw it at the player. The Bomber in Serious Sam 4 has a slightly longer delay between throwing grenades. If the player is hit by a stun bomb, it won't cause any damage, but this will impede the player's movement for a short period of time. Upgraded Bombers are able to use stun bombs, with each tier upgrade increasing the chances of them using the bombs. In I Hate Running Backwards, instead of throwing bombs, Bombers will throw C-4 explosives at the player. He does, however, have a melee attack in Serious Sam 4, and will kick or punch the player if they get within close enough range. In most games, the Bomber does not melee the player when they get too close to him. He will also explode when gibbed with a shotgun, explosive weapon, or sustained fire from automatic weapons like the XL2 Lasergun (especially if Serious Damage is active). When killed, the Bomber will explode soon after his death. Bomber grenades have a smaller splash damage radius compared to the MK III grenades. These grenades make slight whooshing sounds once they are tossed, until they hit the ground or the player, detonating. The Bomber's primary attack is to throw grenades at the target. They are normally found in smaller groups of other beheaded enemies. Bombers are either found at ground level with Beheaded Rocketeers or on places on elevated positions such as low pillars and rooftops. The mechanism for this is not fully understood, but it is thought that an unidentified alien element reacts with nitrogen to form a highly unstable explosive compound.īombers are generally rare enemies whenever they appear, albeit slightly more common than Beheaded Firecrackers. He also carries a large supply of miniaturized bombs in a pouch, which suddenly expand upon contact with Earth's atmosphere. He is equipped with a life control unit and vocal synthesizer, as used by other undead Sirian infantry.Īs with many other Sirian soldiers resurrected and controlled by Mental, the Bomber symbolically carries his own head, which functions as an additional source of audio and visual imput. Serious Sam 3: BFE comes out later this summer for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.The Beheaded Bomber is an executed Sirian soldier that has been raised from the dead by Mental's cyber-zombification technology. Sadly, Sanderson exploded three weeks after this interview took place, but his determined spirit and boundless enthusiasm will forever live on in the missing faces of headless kamikazes everywhere. “There’s a real sense of brotherhood with the other ‘kazes. “Being a headless kamikaze is great,” he said. And when he stumbled upon an ad in the “Soldier/Human Sacrifice” section of Hordeslist, he knew he’d found it.Īfter a successful audition, Sanderson was decapitated and had two large, round bombs permanently affixed to his hands.
