    Hey hey hey duuude. Its not only marine problem, its common 'problem' when it happens. Last night, we had beaten marine team twice, so our gorge decided to even the game so marines could win.. :o

    He built sensory instead of movement, told where our hives were, where there any defenses, where was our troops. etc etc. He even built towers near us so siege could kill us all (on purpose). Many of us did :>. He begged the marine team to take down both hives. That has been the most lamest game i have probably played for awhile, but we did win them anyway.

    Yes the grenade spamming is very common now <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->. You just have to deal with it, dont stay in the spamzone, get close & chomp!.

    server is 1.03 so grenades only do 90 points. And i say again. there was only one grenade launcher.

    There are places where grenades are totally obscene, but I don't think that game sounded like one of them. Ever had an HA/GL guy in the red room above viaduct? With lots of turrets and support marines, that one is a total bastage to take out.

    LOL! I have to laugh at one of SEVEN aliens (who own the whole map except one hive point) complaining about the spam tactics of THREE marines holed up in an alamo stand. You should be embarrassed to bring it up. If 7 guys on one team can't own 3 on another, you better braid your hair, put a pink ribbon in it , and go play with your dollies, because you sure aren't man enough to play this game.

    What's wrong with wearing your hair in braids, or having pink ribbons in them? Can look good if you do it right, and you can still stomp the enemy team regardless of how you choose to style, or how 'manly' you may be.

    That hive is bad because it just has one long entrance perfect for marines and 2 vents.
    The vents are worthless when there are 10 turrets inside, so its just the long entrance.
    Apart from this, if you still cant take it with all those ressources, theres one simple <a href='http://shttp://www.counter-strike.org' target='_blank'>olution</a>.

    Aliens and MArines use this tactic alot, I usually play marines but,Aliens relocate to a poorly defended hive or something all the time, its especially hard when they get fades,but it does get boring, but you have to kill them quick.

    Holy run-on sentence, Batman!

    Two words. Spike em.

    Spike em to death. Spike the turrets <i>to death</i>. And use a little common-sense. Turrets can't exactly hit an alien who ducks in and out of a vent on the ceiling very often. Use regeneration, and spike em. Guerilla-Style.

    One thing I rarely see is the blink. Seriously, I've blinked into many a marine base and out again. The act of blinking alone puts marines into confusion, imagine if an entire team of fades did it! But no... no one knows how to blink. And yes, I have blinked my way into a marine base in that particular hive. Blink to the end of the hall, turn, blink behind the big pillar thingy, marines are dazed and confused. Still aiming down the hallway. Then (after adreneline gets back up) blink across their base and f*** some s*** up. Most of the marines will turn around and in blind panic (except the skilled ones) fire madly in my direction as I blink my a** back to the hallway! And when you own the entire map like that, fades are cheap. Grow a pair. Don't be afraid to use all tools. Even skulks can cause some crap leaping all over the place. When I'm marine, I enjoy the defending the alamo as much as the next guy but as an alien, it means sweet victory to me.

    All great strategies but what about marines? How would you counter these strategies? I mean basically in 1.03 marines have there balls cut off and in 1.04 have just a little better than 1.03.
    Now I'm not talking clans here I’m talking about pubs. Basically if the two teams where the smartest AI ever, Aliens would win. Why? Their too perfect. Granted marines have a few good cards up their sleeves but non of it matches up. Marines need to be on moving unit with allot of res, something in the public servers that is very rare. Aliens are killing machines Marines are not. This needs to be modified.

    For the record, I was there. And due to computer problems, I ended up on the Alien side, after starting out on the marine side. Yes, the marines were well fortified. But the Alien side had multiple Fades (including me) and we sat around, down the hall, shooting spitwads at each other and playing cards. If we (the alien team) wanted to win, we could of rushed them. In fact, there was talk of a fade rush, but it never happened. I knew what Dex was doing, beefing up the marines as resources came in, for a final assult with everybody in heavy armour and HMG's.

    The marine team outplayed us. We should have run down their resources by a full frontal assult. They only had one resource tower, so any damage or loss of a heavy would have cost them time. We could have run them down and taken it.

    The moral, fight harder, fight smarter.
