    Hi there, and welcome! make sure to check out the faqs.  To try to answer your question, when your playing as a marine (the teamplay side) it is of utmost importance that you play as a team.  From what playtesters have said, you dont survive very long on you own.  Not only can aliens easily pick you off, but the commander can choose not to supply a rogue marine, and so on.  So, on the marine side teamplay is a must even to a decent team.  The other half (the aliens) is a completely different story.  They are the fragmasters/deathmatchers, but teamplay could always help them out too, speacially when it comes time to defend the hive or coordinate the winning assualt.  Anyhow, hope your clan does come, the more the merrier.

    Ill try and start making a system for clan wars and maybe help get this mod as popular with clans as CS is when it comes out <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Clan Fission is already deep into its progress (Parse Error's project, not mine).  I'm not sure if it would be a wise idea to provide a duplicate service.

    Utterly amazing. I absolutely love the marine teamplay in this game. The best thing about it? It's real.

    The I stands for 'Internet' Shivit Viper.  As opposed to LAN or single player playtesting.

    As others has said, Bob's bite model is great in game!  My only problem is that when you're cloaked you can't see your health.

    For teamplay, marines <b>must</b> work together.  If not, the aliens have won.  Aliens don't need that much work; but in the games I did play as aliens, we did try to do some cooradination.  Much more than I've seen in a DoD non-clan server anyways.

    Edit- 10 rounds, the symbols on the right show upgrades.  However I don't know what the round hive one means though....

    Will aliens be able to use the voice chat option?  Cause that would be a little weird...
  • Shuvit_ViperShuvit_Viper Join Date: 2002-01-25 Member: 62Members
    you'll see.. everything is taken care of... don't worry the aliens have enough ways of talking...
    And not unrealistic...

    Well guys, I have seen this topic of aliens using voicechat about 3 times in the past couple of weeks. maybe do a search on it next time, ok? <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Anywa, aliens WILL be able to use voice chat. It is almost vital in this game. Gameplay comes before realism in NS, and voice chat is needed for gameplay. A lot more people would complain/think it's a bug if voice chat was not allowed for the aliens over the people who didn't think it was realistic.
