<div class="IPBDescription">You decide !</div> 1.04 is coming to a end. In that time both teams have been fighting fierce battles, Skulks rushed, Lerks spore spammed, Gorges made WOL, Rambos did LMG rushes, JP/HMG rushes, noob comms dropped TF. But only one team won the fight.
So who do you think dominated 1.00-1.04 ?
The High-Tec TSA marines ?
Or
The close range, resourceful Kharaa ?

I think the Kharaa won.


*Btw could they release 2.0 before 4:00 P.M U.K time as i'm babysitting my cousins and staying the night and i just realised that 2.0 comes out on Thursday <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> .

    when aliens won, its usually very short. when marines won, it was looong and predictable

    Aliens won, I'm sorry to say. Just remember: If they work as a team, they win. Always.

    JP/HMG rush takes all seriously, you got to be really bad if you fail

    Pshaw you fools. Isn't it obvious. The scorpions won.

    Most of the games i've played recently, the marines won. But overall, the Aliens won. Plus their victories are always far more satisfying.

    The aliens won. Being a critter with teeth is unique to NS, being a dude with a gun is standard fps fare. The Kharaa are what makes NS great, therefore they win. Oh, the <b>games</b> you mean? Pfff...

    the aliens win when the marines only defend main base all the time, if not and they decide too build more bases and give the old one up, they are having a good chance witha HA/HMG rush!!!
    But finally I say: <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>ALIENS WILL WIN (KHARAA)</span></span>

    What are you guys smoking as soon as the unbalance in the resource model became common knowledge marines won 70% of the matches and 90% of them if it was in a 20+ server.

    Consider 1.04 was the longest out of all the patches and it was entirely dominated by marines, not counting the last month or so where people just stopped trying, then marines totally owned aliens in 1.0x.



    And you can't say much to convince me otherwise since I personally performed 13 HMG rushes in a row on eclipse (Scott's house server 22/22) and won each match in about 3 and 1/2 minutes.

    I saw dr.d do that at scotts house. 1.04 catered to marines. specially with the HMG rush and bad resource model

    1.04 was a marine patch, thats why it was so satisfying when the aliens won (rarely)

    I have to say Aliens won.
    Not really based on actually winning every game or anything, but they were at least kind enough to kill their opponent quickly when the game end was already decided.
    Aliens wouldn't sit around and wait till they got three hives and 1000 ocs outside the marine base to go in and kill them, they would just keep trying.
    More than once I have been on a alien team with 1 gorge, a defence chamber, and a half built hive being all that was left and the game went on for another 15 minutes.
    Why? The marines wanted to cap EVERY res node and Put up a TF and sieges outside every hive and every important location insted of just walking in, shooting the hive and killing the gorge with their HMGs/HA or JP.
    Aliens win for being nice and just finishing the damn games.

    My girlfriend likes the kharaa. She thinks it's funny when I play as something that looks through its teeth. The aliens were the underdogs of 1.04. I have to say, I got pretty good at taking those jpers down. I'd say with the amount of improvement aliens did to be able to compete with the ridiculous jetpack, aliens win.

    Aliens win, because they're over powered.

    Maybe that's why aliens pwn so hard now? People became more skilled at playing aliens because it took more skill to win as an alien?
