There are three sizes of model in the game. Marine sized, crouched marine sized, and 1.33 times the size of a standing marine.
All the aliens fit under at least one of those three categories. The Class 5 is the 1.33 times one, the Class four is the Marine sized one, and the Class 1 is -always- the size of a crouched marine.
If a Class 5 crouches, he becomes the size of a marine. Therefore, vents are the only thing a class five can't enter. Everything else can be entered by everything else.
Would be a nice effect... Some marines stuck in a room without exit, they locked the door, no ammunition anymore and a big beast is breaking the groaning door into pieces...
maybe if a bob crouched it could hide under the floor because it is so lousy at fighing <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->
I dont think lvl 1s can crouch, theres a limit in the half-life engine of how small players can go...or so someone was saying a while ago, i dont know myself

So Bob is going to eat Bob? O'the irony of it all. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
Bob can climb up your body and provide you with a new breathing hole right in the center of your forehead if you ain't careful. Bob's dangerous. It can be hanging, upside down, cloaked, as a single marine walks under him. He drops down behind him, runs up the marine, and *SHWING* dead marine lying in a puddle of blood. But -anywho-. Back to the subject at -hand-.
Class1's can go into vents without crouching, and they don't lose speed at all. And no, Bob can't crouch.
There was talk of making doors breakable, but that isn't in. So class fives can't break through doors.
how big is 1.33 times a marine? Is it as big as those big mothers in Half-life, you knoz zith teh flamethrowers? If not, i think its a shame that they cant get that big, reminds for an idea for a next post, i'm off to put my thoughts into action.
yeah yeah i know what 1.33 marines is, but its just to get an idea ingame, ingame 1.33 means ####, it's just how much will i have to look up, to see his face?Like the big ones in half-life?
As for how big he is in game.... no clue. 1.33 times the size of a marine. Cut a marine in half, and stick one half on top of another marine, and you have a rough idea.
Just wanted to say that it would be cool, if the aliesn would be able to brake through doors, those marines camping like ####### and then this big alien kicks in the door, a bit like mister T, though i never saw him kick i na door, and then the bobs go in past his legs and jump into the group of marines and then the marines shoot wildly and hit eachother and the bobs just bite their #####, make me wander will the marine still be able 2 aim accurately when he is hit bij an alien or will his corsshair move up or something?
it would be cool...if you are an alien, remember once that door is gone its gone you think its cool when your an alien but when your on the marine side eh that would frustrate me
yeah but maybe the marines can have some defence for the doors. Like they can use theri torch to seal the doors, that will stop the level 1-2, then they can weld some bars or something over the doors, that will stop 3-4, and last but not least some sort of electricity on the doors, that will damage the aliesn if they touch teh door, remember level 5 can go through that but suffering heavy damage and it will take 2 or 3 of those aliens to destroy a door like that without one dying trying.
Can,t weldables be broken? Guess that has changed from nstr, there the mapper could decide if a weldable is breakable. <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo--> I don't think there will be any vehicles.

If you didn't mean bigger and you did mean Better than I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
