First squad of marines arrived, and their nanotech completely failed for some reason. They became extremely susceptible to the hive's bacterium and fell. Second squad were sent in to clean up and find out what went wrong, but are met with resistance from their former colleagues, because the hive, instead of wasting its resources and spawning lifeforms, used the former marines and their own tech against them. Cue marine v marine fighting. All the "kharaa marine" tech would be quickly infested with the bacterium upon creation, thereby serving the hive. The models for them would thus look different, because they'd look kinda like hive areas do (covered with the strands and stuff)

Marines vs. Marines vs. Kharaa vs. Khraa/Different Species
4 team deathmatch or "standard" NS play.
What I find strange about Seph Kimara's idea is that we'd have humans working with Kharaa, whereas (sp?) the second group would be facing that giant force plus another alien race/group.
Whats cool is that the rines are workin with the Kharaa, but what about the other team?

The kharaa aliens aren't spawned unless there's a direct threat against the bacterium (check the manual under nano gridlock, and the hive, kharaa section) I don't believe it's documented what happens when the bacterium infects a human, but taking complete control over the now host) body could be a plausible possibility.

I guess you've never played AvP- In AvP the aliens can run on walls much like the Skulks can and they use a melee attack just like the Skulks. This is why the Skulks are a total rip-off of them. It's not just because they have more legs. It's because they are functionally identical. (besides the Skulk's extra abilities)
Speaking of AvP they should make the camera turn in NS when you're on a wall so running on walls and ceilings is easier like in AvP. Right now it's kinda awkward.

I'm not sure if Marine v Marine maps would be that good, don't get me wrong it would certainly be interesting but it'd be terrible telling one team from the other for one thing and for another in many ways it wouldn't really 'fit' in with some of the other aspects of the game, natural selection shouldn't be between one species really and two identical teams battling each other is less interesting than two different ones with different pro's and con's. I suppose giving one lot of marines slightly differnt stuff (eg HA for one Team) to the other might make thing's interesting but would need a bigger tech tree to make that much difference.
How about a completely new team instead? AvP has been mentioned, and it worked there quite well, as did adding the Brits to DoD. Think about it, you could add a whole new species into the equation, Cyborgs or something.. But make them different to the existing teams, or somewhere in the middle maybe ?

I guess you've never played AvP- In AvP the aliens can run on walls much like the Skulks can and they use a melee attack just like the Skulks. This is why the Skulks are a total rip-off of them. It's not just because they have more legs. It's because they are functionally identical. (besides the Skulk's extra abilities)
Speaking of AvP they should make the camera turn in NS when you're on a wall so running on walls and ceilings is easier like in AvP. Right now it's kinda awkward.

...nevermind the fact insects and reptiles have been doing that for who knows how long. Suppose they're all ripoffs of Alien too, eh? <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
There have been a lot of real wars but that doesn't make Battlefield 1942 an unoriginal game. According to your logic it would. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
