<div class="IPBDescription">go to you waypoint soldier/alien</div>The Problem in the beta is, the alien commander can not realy set waypoints for the aliens, i was like 10 of 25 times the alien commander and they never move to the wp i set.
I also write it into the chat, i don´t have a mic, so i have to use ingame chat, they never know where to go.
Can you not set the alien commander like the marine commander with waypoints?
I also miss the *go to your waypoint* message on the marine site, on the alien side it could be some alien voice with echo, it can be some telepathetic thing.
the other problem is the teamplay, its very awesome if aliens run and attack together or marines, but the most time they run alone in the map.

There is a lot of stuff being worked on in this respect for the Marines in the next patch.
It is probably best to get the Marine aspect working well before then translating it over to the alien commander, as he does not seem to need it as much.
It would be a waste of time developing both, realising they are both wrong, and then having to change both again. Rather than work one to a good point, and then start moving it over to the other.
Or I guess this is sort of how they are doing things right now.
I am very much looking forward to the next patch, as hopefully I will feel much more in control as commander - and players will pay a lot more attention.
