OK. I see nothing, but if I point at the door and click, it will say something to the effect of "You hit the door, but it causes nary a scratch".

Actually, you can even hit the floor.

Try with a rocket launcher and you'll see why you can aim doors... :)

Energy weapons do the trick , even a laser pistol ( do little damage ) can

Hey...if we don't stop them, who will? They will eventually take over the world. For the past few centries that have been planeting their agents all over the place. In homes....workplaces.....EVERYWHERE....they MUST be STOPPED!

*Has a moment of contemplation*

I will start up a 'stop this cruelty to doors in video-games society'. How dare you discuss implements of door destruction in close vicinity of one?

Well, I never have tried it with a sufficiently powerful weapon. I'll try it with my gauss rifle later.

*Does that mean I bludgeoned the door with the rocket launcher?

Destroying doors is one of the few uses of grenades. They suck in normal battle so why not use them to get somewhere where you shouldn't be? :twisted:

alternatively just chuck grenades around all over the place... you're bound to hit something even if it is yourself.

Doors are often indestructable. experimentation with explosives and rockets have come to no avail on numerous occasions.

You can use the 'stealth' approach on doors. Try to pick its lock with a set of lockpicks or simply use the lockpick skill. I don't recommend this though, cos those evil door bastards can be sneaky and dangerous. They might have a trap! Do a favor to humanity and kill em instead. Those damn doors... :evil:

You guys are being racist !!!
Doors have a right to close in your face , just because they are a younger race it doesn´t mean they should be considered evil .
I gained the secret language of doors perk and now i know a secret location , the doors citadel !! :mad:
