<div class="IPBDescription">So, what do you think?</div>Now that the feature is live, what do you think?

+ looks cool
+ good feature for aliens hunting down marines
+ makes them feel more like the "hunting" faction

- might need a more "sonar" or "biological" feel. Currently looks to much "technological"
- might need some "balancing"
---- does not work when light are on?
---- too bright when lights are on?
---- drains energy so cannot be used indefinitely?

Discuss! :)

    It works, but I don't like how it looks. I would prefer that it either be much less clean looking, or that it overlay the lines and highlights faintly over the normal view, or a bit of both.

    Currently it's not so much alien vision as tron vision, it fits the marines more than it does the aliens.

    I would suggest adding things to marine areas which interfere with the vision, like being in the effective area of a functional power node fills the vision with static or something. You can't really nerf it without making it kinda useless, so just making it not very good in marine areas would force aliens to use both view modes.

    I like it. All it needs is a more <i>Kharaa</i> feel to it.
