    Marines have a fatigue level, and I believe Flayra once said that bunnyhopping as khaara wasn't an exploit.

    The answer you'll get is "bunnyhopping is part of the game" and personnally I agree with that too.

    I think alien would become significantly weaker if bunnyhopping was taken out, because they would become an easier target than they are now.

    I have to take the posters side and say im one for all types on bhop being taken out, im sure if flayra wished he could find a way to balance it out so that the game is still equal on both sides. It would just take abit of time to get the balance right.

    Even if it means making some crappy upgrade that means because skulks have a certain genetic makeup they have very little internal body organs that they can take more damage then the average alien or you could use the same excuse and say they receive half damage from weapons or 1/3 or whatever it takes to balance it.

    I feel each race should be playable by every person, not just experts because they can bunnyhop/script it.

It is a HL exploit that has been adopted by HL fans and I don't care either way, ultimately. If it WAS taken out, they could then balance the skulk without b-hopping in mind. (ie. better for new players... yes, that's a good thing despite taking bhop away)

    do people like you make posts like this wit the deliberate intention of starting flame wars / rant sprees?

    1. Read the FAQ about posting - you see in the bottom left of your screen, there is a bit of text saying "search this forum" ... it's not there for decorative effect.

    Search the forums for the immense numbers of bunnyhop threads in the archives.

    2. NS is NOT CS ... no matter how pro you may be at either game, they are differnent. In the same way NS doesn't have AWP's, CS doesn't have aliens. the games are not comparable.

    3. The "official" word on bunnyhopping is that is there to stay and it is there deliberately.

    this just cracks me up... people who say that clearly just have no skills with that team (probably because they stack marine portal 99% of games). I have seen and know many top flight players who will play alien and not bunnyhop once in an entire round, and still end up raping every marine.

    4. Bunnyhopping is a skill. it takes time and practice to acquire it. why remove it? because you can't do it? because you are too lazy (and childish) to actually take the time to work out how to do it? Hmm. shall we put auto-fire on for Shotguns aswell? so on the rare occassion that your pro CS skills don't give you good reaction times with the shotgun, it'll fire for you any way - removing yet another skill of the game

    5. Perhaps you are a regular marine player. Can't hit the skulks cause they move too fast? Aww. thats unlucky. perhaps instead of whinging about some one elses skills, why not improve your own.

    I'm fairly sure I remember the community voting that the aliens should keep bunny hopping to make them more different from the marines, and to help them become more of a skill based team.
