-bile bomb doesnt seem to hurt buildings... it kills marines quite well but it wont even scratch buildings( turrets etc...)
-unable to bite marines in vents... Dont know if this is just in ns_nancy, or all vents. There were a couple marines in a vent that leads to the hive, and we knew they were there. It was in the beginning of the game, all skulks vs no armor marines with light machine guns. First skulk goes in, bites him 3 times, dies. Second one right behind him, bites him another 3 times, dies. I go in, bite him 3 or 4 times, he whips out his pistol and kills me. Doesnt seem right.
-not sure if this is a bug or intentional...I always have hivesight when i press my flashlight button. I thought this was only supposed to be an upgrade from the sensory chamber?

awesome game, just wondering if anyone else noticed these...

    Bile bombs do take out buildings, but considering damage they do, they do seem to go down slowly. Maybe its just me not paying enough attention.
    If I remember correctly, the upgrade at sensory chamber shows marines up as well when you press your flashlight key. Increasing levels just make them show up better. I am most likely wrong on this.
    I've bitten marines in vents. They died. nuff said. could be anything that stopped you from killing him

    I have never been able to kill a marine in a vent. Everytime, and even though i sneak up on him from behind, nothing happens. He turnes around and i´m dead in a sec.

    i have had the vent thing happen.... i dont know how to reliably recreate it but it does happen. Bile bombs are hit and miss for me... sometimes rthey seem fine, others useless. IMproved hive sight does seem bugged, when i take it as a trait and use my flashlight key all the aliens glow and the marines turn transparent, sort of counter productive. IT will all get worked out in time and i love this game no matter what hehe.

    The vent thing has been mentioned. I believe it was Lord_Frodo who said you have to aim low when in a vent. He had the same problem, but figured it out by going low.

    And yes, the upgraded hivesight makes the marines glow as well as aliens.
