<div class="IPBDescription">Mouth view</div>You know the mouth view for the skulk i think its called, why do we look thru the mouth. They clearly have eyes above their mouths. Im just wondering cause it is hard to follow marines thru the mouth when they got eyes lol

Oh, also comments suggestions or whatever is welcome on these 2 ideas.

1 - aliens attacks get stronger with the more hives they own.
2 - limit the amount of structures, especially turrets, so they would have to be used more efficiently other then placing 100000 in one spot.

    It's to add flavor and fun to the game...although it's almost impossible to kill with the lag...hehe, but I'm still having fun with it.

    lol ya i know it adds that stuff but i mean we got eyes! hehe if you had a choice would u rather look thru yer eyes or mouth for a alien if the eyes meant seeing more and not getting blocked out view everytime u attack.

    Since we're talking about Skulks...

    I've got no experience with modding and tweaking the HL engine, so I don't know exactly how hard it would be to do this, but how hard would it be to rotate the Skulk model when it's walking on a wall or a ceiling so all 4 of its talons are touching the surface? It's a minor complaint, but I'd just like to not look like I'm balancing on the wall with 2 of my talons or clinging to the ceiling with my back. Also, would it be hard to change the views accordingly? It'd make it seem a bit cooler and/or realistic.

    Other than the obvious ping complaint, I haven't really got many quarrels with the mod. Keep up the good work, guys.

    It is harder than you think as it means adding in 360x360 degree fighting and combat, which few games have, I think maybe only Serious Sam as of right now. As for the face, it really doesn't block my view, nor does it when I bite. If you need to see something that importantly as you are atacking, you obviously are trying to bite air, or if something is sitting right where your teeth are, then you are looking at an odd freaking angle.
