<div class="IPBDescription">How are you server stats for marines....</div> Aug 05-10 Aliens win 80% Marines 10% Draws(after 2 hour games)10%
Aug 10-15 Aliens win 90% Marines 10% Draws 0%
Aug 15-20 Aliens win 40% <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->?!!! Marines win 50% Draw 10%
The last five days have seen something on my server, and I beleive its the gameplay "begining"(note:begining) to balance out for both sides. I have been commander almost non-stop the last few days.
This only counts the matches during of when I was on of course, but it DOES count both when I have been on the mariens and when I have not.
The actual hard numbers for the full day are as follows.
As of the last 5 days the marines have pulled from an average of 8% victories to now stand at around 20% victories for the entire game day.
This may not seem significant, but people are learning...at least it seems to me they are.
My question is, have any other server's out there had a sudden increase in the amout of marine wins as of late.....not total marine crushing...but a lot more than what was "normal" about a week ago. It seems that people are learning how to play and I know for a fact that I have learned how to command dam good on most maps now.

Daily updated stats from the last 14 days
295 (aliens) v 105 (marines)
This is running 2.01b and must say it does seem alot fairer than 2.0.
Recently tho marines have been winning mroe games <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

Marines: 138 (20.3%)
Aliens: 542 (79.7%)
Thats all well and good, but you put that organization into an alien team...wow. Aliens are never focused, gorges putting up res nodes are rare, decisive decisons about what chamber to use first and where to put them are more rare. All in all, they're lazy.
When that win ratio starts to swing towards the marine's favor, you'll see aliens working together for the big W. Pre-set gorges who know where to put those sensory chambers, not as many 100 res skulks waiting for Onos with only 1 hive up, organized scouting runs with effective use of parasite will make 'sneak attacks' all but flukes, the incredible support abilities of lerk and gorge will fully realize their potential.
No doubt marines take organization to win, but I think alien teamwork can be more impressive/devastating.
Then again, the server is packed full of Veterans, but MAN it is FUN to actually get killed as a Shotgunner by a SKULK!
And the aliens are still winning!
for the first week or so we had a huge alien win problem untill we started a community effort to teach our regulars how to win. Since then marines have been kicking ****. Im fear that 2.1 is going to make it a Marine only show as they're nerfing aleins right as ppl are learing in mass to beat them

if you need some people to go to your server and "fix" those statistics back to the aliens' favor, just ask, we did it for xzi, we can do it for you <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
