Web Alert

<div class="IPBDescription">my spider sense is tingling</div> simple idea. when a marine gets caught in a web, a message and hive-sight alert go off to the gorges (hopefully one) that something's caught. some of you may say this is useless, as the marine will most likely shoot the offense chambers and give off a warning to the entire team. but me, and a lot of other pro-gorges web up defenseless hallways. spiders get it, why can't gorges?

    Spiders are sitting on the damned webs, how can they not 'get it'.
    The aliens are almighty, super, mega, dega powerful without giving them something which would effectively let them track marines movement with a bit of web spam.

    well it sounds somewhat helpful but since marines are webbed for such short amounts of time i dont think it would be beneficial to hive anything up ont he hive site because by the time you got there it would be too late.

    It would be cool but i think that's a bit too much advantage for the aliens. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I don't care if the marines can pull down their pants and **** nuclear warheads. Fact remains, they lose most of the time so it's about time people quit beefing up the aliens and 'nerfing' the marines.

    This is supposed to be a balanced, strategic, multiplayer game. Not 'hey, lets mindlessly slaughter a bunch of hopeless, puny, weak marines in doom styleeee'.

    its not a nerf first of all. heres the prerequisite for not getting stuck in a web : not being a moron. Its that easy, and if a gorge can get a marine stuck in his web, then good job. I think it should tell the aliens and give them a marker for 5 secs where to go, but not parasiting marines or anything.

    ...I swear, everytime someone posts something like this, its an insult to anyone who put effort into making the game. They've spent God knows how long creating the game, and you go into a mindless fit as soon as you see someone suggesting for a web alert.

    Sorry, but seeing these kinds of post constantly frustrates me, since no one shows any gratitude.
