Marines Are Too Defensive...

It seems to me that marines are usually too passive, atleast on the servers I play on. When the map starts you build up your base head out and take a resouce or two, then fortify an enemy hive... but what then? What you should do in my oppinion would be to aggressively attack one of the other enemy hives.

What usually happens at this point is people get HA and HMG and stop bothering to follow your orders and just roam around the map. Maybe securing one resource point here and one there while letting the aliens steal the resouce ponints you already had. What they should be doing would be to team up and keep attacking an enemy hive forcing the aliens to go on defence or die.

    I agree with LOG4N.

    Ok the marines have very powerfull defences, but in order to win a team has to expand. So if the marines just grab a few resourcenodes and then fall back and defence, the aliens are gonna win.
