When i go to alien in starting game, i like to jump in as commander, build insta shadehive and camo upgrade and 1 rt for the team and then logout and ask if anyone else wants to com.
reason why i do this is because that's the only way i can play with shade tech as alien, i don't want camo when we have 3 hive but at start when it's actually useful, and i personally love shade hive as alien because of 3 things, 1. camouflage 2. silence 3. decoy alien if i'm commander, and i'm so bored to 6min onos plant tactic.
now call me an ###### but this is only way i get to play as shade alien, sorry for everyone who's game i have "ruined" because in no way shadehive means loss....

Smacktard: Why do people hate me? I just take the B17 to get to the nearest flag and then jump out and let it crash.

I would love to show you just how useless camo really is. And yea against any decent marine team, you're going to lose if you get shade first.

battlefield 3 : take jets drop onto top of a building, jet crashs, your base get overrun by the other two jets...
luckyly i'm talking about what's fun, not what is best, and for me camo = fun, until i get beaten in everygame 24/7 where i have camo at beginning i start to see your point because then it stops being fun, and nontheless, you can't argue that silence is bad upgrade, it's very useful.
and since when celerity or carapace has been factor that makes aliens lose whatever or not have one ? because the way i see it, if aliens suck they suck whatever upgrade they have, if they're any good then they have chance to win whatever upgrade they have, for skulk carapace is in no way neccesary to have because of 2 things 1. skulk get oneshotted by shotgun whatever you have cara or not 2. if they have lmg carapace helps you to take 2 hits more, 2 hits ONLY, to me having celerity and silence is a lot more useful for skulk.
now for onos on the otherhand carapace is a lot more useful, but then again, onos 6min tactic should already be banned.
Still, a ###### way to go about it IMO.

yeah, you're saying it, can i really be blamed ? is it my fault that game company made tactic i like to use useless that makes rest of my teammates flame me for doing something as awful as going shadehive first ? Why it should make any different do i go for shade or shift ? shouldn't they be balanced ?
i know i'm an ###### for doing this, but really, is it my fault?, and for the record i will command that rest of the game if no one will take my place, i will eventually drop hives and more rt's etc, and as stupid as it sounds, i'm all in for teamplay, i like to move around with other players and kill enemies as group.
so, am i bad person for doing this ? to actually do something terrible and awful as dropping shadehive first without asking because no one ever goes for it ?

I am pretty sure I hate you, and hate the bands you like.
Camo is never useful, because observatory is up by 3-4 minutes. Silence is only useful when combined with the mobility from celerity. The real problem is that skulks have to be able to survive a shotgun blast and they can't do that without carapace/superior mobility. Basically, you ruin games and I hope the worst happens to you.
yeah.... problem is, that they won't survive shotgun blast with carapace.
mayby the real question is, shouldn't they fix shade hive when it creates so much hate if someone even thinks about going for shadehive ? not to mention someone is forced to do something as low as i'm doing in order to get shade ups.
Need weapons 2 for the one shot which takes more then 3 minutes for them to get up. (SHOTGUNS ARE ABSOLUTE BULL###### BTW.)
So you get more out of a early carapace/celerity then you will out of camo.

Really? You're wishing death on someone over a video game? Society is so fooked. If not death than insert something you think is worse.

I don't know, OP, but you are definitely a bad player.

Yes.
Are you a bad person for going shade first? No, not if you think you can make it work. The part that makes you bad is doing it simply because you want to abandon command and leave someone else with a misbegotten strategy.
If you want to see Shades, either suggest it politely or maintain your command.
Yep. Deal with it. I also steal candy from babies and use every loophole I can to avoid paying taxes with the only intent of bankrupting my government. Someday, someday I will have my giant freaking laser that I can blow up the moon with in order to stop our tidal flows and irreparably damage our environment.
This reminds me of the sore losers who always thought it was funny to switch from aliens to marines and recycle the IP's. They also got an instant ban.
You know what is really fun? Winning.
Well. Aliens don't win unless they early onos drop, sooooooo. I guess the real answer is, you want fun? Play mahreen.

and how do you think suggesting works ? i tried it, it won't work, atleast not for me, i'm forced to do decision, do i want to be an ###### so i can sometimes play the way i like, or get stuck on the same old tactic that aliens use 99% of the game.
there's really not much choice, either go for shift hive or get flamed, that's the way it is as you can clearly see in this topic.
I bet i wouldn't have gotten flamed if i said in this topic :
i like to go alien commander and drop insta hive and 3rt's to wait onos egg and ask IF someone else wants to com during waiting that onos egg resources.
i bet everyone would cheer to me that i'm doing so well.
So you get more out of a early carapace/celerity then you will out of camo.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Not sure which way this remark goes. Shotguns are bad or too good? I mean I for one have a blast popping Skulks left and right once I get my precious one shot kill devastator up to the point where I feel bad sometimes (in an evil way :P)
They are ridiculously powerful for 20 res. They are the "counter" to everything but lerk(assuming the lerk isn't stupid enough to actually try to use it's bite or poison spores. Yeah buddy, cling to that wall on the other side of the room and do your impression of a sentry gun, cause anything else is just going to waste your 30 res), IF you manage to kill someone with one his buddy can pick it up saving the res(Heck, if you spawn nearby or have phase portals you can just go get it yourself), and while you have to be fairly close to get them one/two shots you can still do decent damage to things at range... Add in a jetpack and weapon/armor three and you have the ultimate warrior for 30 res!
Aliens need a 20 res life form that can one shot marines and two shot exos. Seems balanced to me.
EDIT: Wait... only two shot single MG exos, dual exos should require three bases and be the only viable unit past 3-4 minute mark.
You are a bad person for using the comm to your personal gain. This game is about teamwork. Either stick to the comm the whole way through or find a buddy who's willing to comm and research shade first. It doesn't matter how you sugarcoat it; the fact of the matter is that you spent almost all of the initial tres on things that the next comm (assuming if another person takes it afterwards) might or might not need.
Lesson of the day, next time you ask a rhetorical question, irregardless of the reasoning, don't be surprised when you fail to sway the audiences' answers.
yeah, you are ofcourse right, no question about that and i do command with shadehive till the end most of the times.
However, the reason i want shade hive is not to give it for my team but it's because i like it personally, so if i was commanding the whole game i might as well go for shift hive for better results.
but on the other hand.... if shadehive was actually useful i wouldn't have to be an ###### now would i ?
Worse then death? Complete paralysis, with the sensation of an itch on your nose. And yes anyone who claims that their "fun" supersedes that of 5-7 team mates should a) not play team based game b) be banned from any server that is not designated as a beginner server. And c) enjoy a life alone, never understanding why no one loves self centered asses....
Ps. To those who would point out that plenty of women are damaged and go for the "bad boy" this fact is negated by being a gamer.
