<div class="IPBDescription">What i've learned</div>1.Dont let the marines advance. while the rest of your team is running around grabbing resource nodes take a teammate or two strait to the marine base and perch above their door way anytime they come out drop down on them. this will slow them down alot. I've held back and entire team alone while we got 3 hives up.
2. try to keep constant pressure on them. You say 'but we're only level 1's what can we do?' if you continualy pound them (not stupidly mind you use stealth and surprize not to mention darkness and vents to your advantage) you'll overwhelm their commander and make it hard for him to build structures etc if he's resluppieing his marines.
3. Help your team mates! follow them especialy builders. each time a gorge dies it costs rps and more rps to evolve and upgrade making it harder and slower to get nosels and defences.
4.Dont be afraid to ask for help or lend advice. do it politely though. no one likes to be yelled at. Ask your team mates to support you.
5.Your an alien not a marine act like one. think of yourself like the zerk. you keep coming over and over suicidle. you dont care if you die. your mission is to protect the hive with your life. you dont get scared/nervice etc. You feel no pain no remorce. you are a killing machine. This doesnt mean just run into turrets or marines giving them an easy kill. use your 1337 alien skillz and abilities.
5. Dont just take down their turrets. if they have a poorly built base use it tor your advantage. Your fast, doge through the turrets get in behind one of their armorys xenocide or bite it if you have to. if you can take out the building that support other like the turret factory. they cant build anymore untill they get another. Or better yet take out phase gates. if you take out the phase gate at a base no back up will be coming for awhile (unless they have another base near by) leaving you more time to nibble their base into little metal gibs
I may add to this from time to time with more info as I play the aliens more.
