I put them around crags, over cysts, made clog doughnuts in doorways so only aliens could get through easily.
So if you think of them as attachable armour plating, or movement obstacles, they can work.
I also use them to slow marines down, so my hydras can attack them :)
Geeze, how long does that take per RT? and for all that time and effort spent a marine only has to destroy what, two of them to be able to fit through a gap and reach the RT? so you delay them by 10~ seconds for spending 3 minutes or however long it took building Clogs all around it?
If you think that's worth it then good for you but they really need to improve the speed at which you can drop Clogs imho, it's clunky and slow. They should probably be bigger aswell so you don't need to use as many to clog an area.
Especially the unattractive menu that comes up in the middle of the screen with large icons showing what you can chose.
It feels like a computer interface, when it should feel more alienesque.
They fixed a similar problem with the alien commander who had to build and move drifters around to place structures. I'm sure there's a similar way to smooth out the gorge experience.
And the time it takes to do something is way too long anyway.

Well after building ###### offline with clogs, I can build you a house in 15s?
Clogs are great if you use em right. And if you build something 10times at the sameplace you won't need alot of time to rebuild it again.
The only thing that clogs needs is, that skulks and lerks can stick on it.

And that onos can run through it. Can't skulks stick on it already

Would be nice if goo walls were more like a gelatinous substance that would let Aliens run through, but be like molasses to Marines (think: webbing from NS1).

I like this idea, maybe even if a marine tries to walk through it he gets stuck in it?

And yeah this goowall slowed marines down if they touched it (very slow) but aliens could move trough.
I like where this is going... maybe an exploding goo pile that slows down marines. Would have to be slightly less noticeable though to work effectively.
