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...

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?

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.
And I love to be scary <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->
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.

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.

You know, thats just why I wanna be alien, stealth wall climbing, flying.
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?)

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