<div class="IPBDescription">or, eggs on walls and ceilings</div>Just a simple idea, I thought might be a decent addition, the ability for eggs at hives to spawn on walls and ceilings. It would make it harder for marines to spawn camp, and it would be a cool effect to have aliens spawing all over the room instead of always on the ground.

    Or, reduce alien spawn time a little bit and have them spawn in more varied/random places.

    yeah, having it not spawn in the same spot all the time would be nice.
    I do like the new spawn time on alien eggs though, at least there's a risk in dying a lot with 1 hive now, first i was like rolfskulk, i respawn instantly anyway if i die, now i actually watch my team more if we only have 1 hive up.

    Well, I suggested it more for the visual aesthetic rather than the spawn camping, I just thought it could help that as well. Eggs all around the walls would be a cool effect, to add to the infestation.

    Imo the model is too big to have it stick to the walls.

    Need more potential egg spawn locations per room (more like 12-15 instead of 5-6) and have the eggs spawn in a random order is all that is needed.

    I actually think I made this evolution suggestion in the NS1 forums years ago!

    Aliens should be able to evolve anywhere, make them stick, or possibly hang like a sac of goo with a tentacle attaching them to the surface.
