I have noticed something after playing this game for over a month. When I join small servers ~16 players I notice that aliens win a lot more than marines. With the aliens mobility advantage and their khamms ability to cyst/RT the whole map w/o needing anyone to build anything can create great imbalances in small games.
When I had a slower gameing laptop I would only join small games and noticed aliens willing a lot. Since I got a better system I join the larger 20+ servers I see a lot more marine wins, about 40/60 in aliens favor.
I was playing on a lower pop server today and noticed how bad the alien team was as far as k:d went. Though since they could expand very easily and quickly they ended up getting enough rez and upgrades to win. Even if I khamm in smaller games I can easily take most of the RTs and replace them faster than the marines can take them down.
I know in an asymmetric game it is is very hard to find balances, though thought you guys might like to know.
