I just bought the game without knowing anything at all about it or it's previous instance (essentially because people I play TF2 with and whose opinion I respect bought it too and seemed to like NS1 for exactly the same reasons I like TF2).From what little I've read it does look like an interesting idea.</br> I hope I'll find adequately filled servers at my usual hours (22:00 GMT).I also hope I'll be able to train the commanding positions in each side in empty servers or with bots or in whatever training system you've thought of, to not annoy people and break a game on each try.Are there any "supporting roles" other than the commanders on each side? (i.e.: is there a marine and an alien who do something that's not 100% shooting?)cheers and good luck with the final release.

    Marines are the ground units that do the fighting. There is not a single marine designated as a support class; however, when/if the commander researches the repair tool, then you can take the task of repairing for your team.

    Aliens have the gorge, but its role is not like the original Natural Selection for Half-Life. The gorge is as close to a support class as you can get at the moment.
