    The LMG is accurate, yes. However, skulks shouldn't be attacking marines head on in the first place. Accuracy doesn't matter when you bite them from behind. The teeth... you get used to them. And I'm not sure what "THE HMG" is supposed to mean. In response, I say "THE FADE". And I killed some light-armor HMG marines in a game just now as a skulk...

    Well whining about the problem in general discussion isn't going to help reduce the amount of ppl knowing of this exploit!!

    those are some quick replies <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I mean "THE HMG" because it can kill a skulk/lerk/gorge in under 10 shots. Not only that, but the RoF is incredible...

    In most games you will have good aspects balanced by bad aspects, for example some guns will have high RoF and clip size but low damage/accuracy; low RoF and low clip size but high damage/accuracy... the HMG has high RoF, HIGH damage, and decent accuracy (by that I mean that since recoil in NS doesn't "stack," spamming an area with bullets eventually gets enough in the accurate range, the high RoF alone makes this possible).

    How many times is it REALLY possible to assault a squad of marines and manage to suddenly bite them from behind? There's also a little problem like "Getting there so you can use your only attack." It's like the freakin' Boxer Rebellion in China, or WW1 where people just got mown down trying to get close enough to hurt the enemy.

    Well, comparing the HMG to skulks, lerks, and gorges isn't fair -- that's a high-level weapon, and low-level aliens. Compare it to the Fade, like I said. It's pretty even then.
    And you can almost ALWAYS get behind, or at least to the side of or above, a group of marines. Vents and side-paths work wonders. It may take you twice as long to get there, but you'll do three times more damage.

    <span style='color:blue'>Be nice.</span> If you read my post, I'm not whining about game balance... I'm saying that what happened wasn't normal. This is exactly what happened to me when I was NOT a marine. Then the same stuff continued when I played as a marine.

    *bing* *bing* *bing* <i>Cleanse the Intruders!</i>

    Went gorge.
    About 10 seconds later... Had over 60 res right away
    About 30 seconds into the game... Got 1 res tower... resources climbing super fast
    About 60 seconds into the game... I headed to build a 2nd hive with 100 res
    Built some defense and offense chambers, a few more res chambers, went to 3rd hive ready to build another hive.

    I hope this wasn't normal.

    It wasn't. I'd suggest you search yourself a server without of cheaters and try it again - but that's just me, doing propaganda.

    Let me get this straight... You are asking if it was a mistake. Yet at the same time you declare that the game is <i>ruined</i> and you are <i>leaving</i>.

    It's not normal, but what do you care? You should have left by now, right?
