Man, this game is an absolute blast to play on both sides! It really is reliant on a commander who can communicate though. Is it just me or is it really drat hard to find out where things are happening as aliens? I hear WARGLE UNDER ATTACK and have to pore over the map every time, a WP would be really handy.

It feels like marines are much much easier to do well in for new players. I'm guessing that aliens can be more powerful individually, but it's really painful losing game after game because our skulk horde is afraid of heights and moves single file into the storm of lead. Also marines get all sorts of handy waypoint indicators, it's really easy to tell what's happening and where.

I do love how gorges get to clog hallways with giant boogers. At one point our team had 4 of them so the hive entrance looked like an alien WW1 trench.

Anyone know the range of a hydra, roughly?

My experience on dealing with skulks is to stagger your group of marines. It's much easier to shoot a skulk circling your buddy at the other end of the hall than right at your own feet if everyone clumps up.

A lone exo is horribly vulnerable to one skulk anklebiting it, especially if it doesn't have fully upgraded armor. An exo train should be bilebombed and skulkrushed.

The one thing I would like to see for the command interface is some kind of visual fog of war effect. It might be my low settings, but it's hard to tell what areas I can see fully or not.

If you're having trouble getting kills then I would suggest harassing marine resource nodes. Just keep an eye out for mines and try to approach from the ceiling.

In that case you might have been better off pooping out whips next to their CC.

Magres posted:You can also feed your marines effective combat tactics. One game I was playing Marine and we were getting crushed early by the Skulks - lot of us just weren't super good twitchy players and fighting a Skulk up close is almost entirely twitch and bunnyhopping. That there is a perfect example of a good comm. I was in the same situation but our comm just kept going "stop being poo poo guys you loving suck god drat you're so poo poo".
