heres some random ideas.
i think every alien shud be able to transform into a more powerful version when u save enough res.
gorge > super gorge (i dont have a good name for it) its would be able to shoot a larger version of spit that could damage marines and it couLd heal aliens from far away, it could shoot a massive stream of bile that would consume energy the more u hold fire and would do alot of damage to buildings, it would look like the gorge is spewing, it could also shoot something that looks like bild bomb but it would be white sticky stuff that would stay on the ground for about 5 seconds and would slow the marines down like web.
mayby the gorge could only build structures on the infestation and it could shoot the infestation all over the walls like heal spray so if u wanted a res tower u would have to shoot the infestation over to the res spot then build the tower, the marines would try to kill the infestation with flamthrower.
also the gorge would look way more fat and slimy like it has lots of goo inside it.
lerk > super lerk, this lerk would mostly be used to confuse the marines, it could shoot a cloud that makes the marines dizzy like that grenade on perfect dark but it would use heaps of energy. it could shoot a cloud that is double the size of spore but it does not do damage, it makes a black smokey cloud that the marines cant see through, u know how sometimes the marines are at one end of a long hallway and an onos is trying to run down there but the marines keep shooting their hmg's and making the onos run back, well the super lerk would shoot the black cloud close to the marines so the onos could run down the hallway without them seeing it and go kill them <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" /> .when it flies it leaves a trail of umbra that comes of it because its wings would be furry like a moths wings.
i have not thought of the other classes yet.
chamber of darkness - it would look like a volcano and the black smoke cloud would come out of it blocking marines view past it, the marines cant see the chamber in the smoke cloud so it makes it harder to kill.
later in the game the marines could get heat vision goggles that could see through the smoke cloud and see through walls for a short distance, they would cost alot of res though and would use energy like the flashlight an half life.
there shud be dark areas on the map so aliens can sneak around, aliens could chomp light controls to shut them down and the marines could weld to fix them.
the marines could point the flashlight into the aliens eyes and it would blind them a bit, like looking into a cars headlights, it would only work in dark areas. the flashlight would use energy.
marines could set up an observatory which would have a bright light that can light up the dark areas.
marines can also get a flare that they could throw into dark areas to lighten them up for a few seconds.
mayby a big turrent that the comander can drop and after the marines build it the comander can control the direction it shoots, like the com can click on the turrent then left click beside it to make it shoot that direction. it would be very powerful but the aliens can just get close and they can dodge the way the gun is pointing so the marines have to protect it. That would make coming very fun <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" /> .
ok that all the ideas i got for now, i will think of more later.

Comments
that would be really cool with the commander controlling a turret but would he be too busy building the base
I think that the skulks should reflect the light in their eyes, much like a cats eye. Would add a really scary realistic pserpective to the game. Or even have their eyes glow on their own, just like something out of a horror movie...
On topic: I really like the Lerk idea giving it abit more utility as a support class, making it capable of cover as well. And the moth wing fluffy stuff idea is great that would be truly awesome something along those lines, wings giving off spores or something.
i dont like how i named this topic though. can i edit that somehow?
