Theory For The Large Amount Of

<div class="IPBDescription">Kharaa wins</div> many theorys have been given for the fact that Kharaa win more often.
some say that it has to do with public/clan servers but i think that is not the only reason.
i think that because all the newbie players, taking marines the 'rine slots are full fast and other players will take Kharaa and eventually they will like playing the Kharaa and will take the team automatic as they think it is hopeless as theteam is full before they get there. some players get fed up with losing and will choose Kharaa who rarely have more players than the 'rines. and the fact that most of 'rines have the tendency to be noobs and act solo, this makes other players abandon the 'rines and start Kharaa because of the lower Noob rating.

i made this up as an explanation for the increasing Kharaa wins and i will welcome other insights.

    IMO, its because the natural individualistic tendencies of most gamers benefits the alien team, but harms the marine team.

    Three referals to himself, here we see the why the theory of rambos joining marines had solid foundings.

    (Not picking on you, it's just yours was there and I am too lazy too look for better examples)

    All this "Aliens win more, Marines win more" stuff is getting silly. Even more silly are the fabricated reasons. It is nothing more than the res model and the size of the server. I wish every person that posted "aliens/marines win all the time" would also post the server size they experience it on. I bet we see a real trend.
