    Aliens = one creature army  Marines = only strong in numbers

    Aliens > Marines

    understand the humiliation thing the aliens got going here >=)

    Mr marine gets his HMG, heavy armour, loads of ammo, jetpack and gets the order "kill kill kill". Foolishly, he forgets his team, and wanders (flies) off into the shadows.. seconds later, a skulk leaps from the wall and chomp him. Panic spreads and he screams for backup, the skulk ignores this and leaps yet again.. More screaming, broken keyboards and trashed mouse for mr big-bad-marine..

    when his reinforcement finally arrives after constant guiding from commander, all they find is an jetpack, still humming...

    MWAHAHAHAHA......................ha

    Ooo, ahh, err... soo hard...
    Oh well, I'll brobably be alien the first time I play... SOOO...

    edit:
    And why isn't there a 'spectator' choice? Nobody gonna rule out alien and marine for spectator mode? <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

    Vote: Marines

    Something tells me our games are going to be a little unbalanced...  <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    Well, we can make compromises. And I'm <i>sure</i> some people will learn to like the Aliens, so it's cool. Marines hate aliens, and aliens hate marines. It just works that way!

    Personally, a skulk would be fun for me too, but im gonna play marines first.
  • SurgeSurge asda4a3sklflkgh Join Date: 2002-07-14 Member: 944Members
    Something also tells me that lots of people are anxious to see how the commander mode works.

    We shall come, see, and conquer the alien threat as one.

    Well u know?

    Despite the fact that most people want to go marine, I've found that GOOD players like to play alien. I expect to see the marines get heavily owned by l33t AVP players to begin with, to whom the concepts of stealth, wall-running and chomping all come naturally.

    Plus I think that experienced FPS players will enjoy the flexibility of being an alien. You want a turret? Evolve to builder. You want to harass the marines? Go flyer. You want to lay down hurt?

    As a PT, I can honestly say that I enjoy playing both sides and that both have their own appeal.

    While I wont lie, my place belongs with the marines. I easily play about about 60 percent marines (OK, maybe 70) and 30 percent alien. I think aliens are by far cooler, but I love the feeling of facing them down. I love a good scare.

    If the marines actually work together no game in the world could be better, I love to play games with teamplay like that. But I know for sure I'll be playing as the aliens reasonably often, especially since I usually auto-team instead of choosing a side.

    I'm really getting excited about this mod, the only thing that could make it better would be if I get a decent computer by the time 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-->

    Wait a minute, wait a minute here.  There's no PETA group?  I wanted to be the loving tree-hugger getting between the alien and marine, telling them both that it was nothing more than a misunderstanding.

    Well, I've always like being part of a hive mind.  You know, when I was still hooked up.

    -Ryan!

    This post intrests me becuase I always planned to be aliens, but thought the team would always be full, if everyone is human, they're in for some mass massacre.

    first side i'll choose would have to be the marines-cant wait to use those huge-fire-power autos and blow some alien gut out.
    *bang!*

    Hard to chose side, i'd play and enjoy both sides equal. (preliminary opinion) <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    I'm actually quite intrigued that the numbers are 2 to 1 towards the marines.  Maybe we'll have to add some juicy stuff for the aliens...(or explain them more?)
