The Hive 3 Abilities on the Fade and Onos (in my opinion, devour and charge should be switched over). Acid Rocket just isn't worth it unless you got mines in your way.

Players who don't ask what chamber. Sure, if i wanted DCs and someone drops them, you'd reckon it would be fine, but sometimes i prefer that the gorges actually ask the team.
I'm all for trying out new tactics or whatever, but i'll be damned if i'm dropping chambers the team doesn't ask for.
I hate it when a marine outruns me when I'm a clerity fade. Not so much an "annoyance", more a "game feature that makes me want to throw my computer out the window with rage". Instead I just keep swearing like a sailor and hoping that someone important realizes how stupid marine hopping is and nerfs it to the point that it's only useful for jumping onto or over obstacles.

I hate the spamming that is focus. Nearly every alien gets focus and this ruins the fun. Considering that the main alien strategy is to rush a huge firing squad of marines and if one or two gets through, they'll rip it to shreds while more come and kill it. Focus spamming is one of the reasons for marine spawn camping. Why go out and get killed when you can camp a hall or something and own anything that comes down it? I hate it alien side too as that I don't get it but my entire team does. Now, I have to bite the marines more and more to kill them because they have armor to over come focus. Not to mention that I may kill one or two and get a bite on a couple more then die. Then the focus skulks kill them and I don't get anything for it..
I hate how marines can so easily maneuver with the JP while the aliens aren't able to counter it as much. Doesn't make the game that much fun...
If acid rocket is going to be so nerfed, it should be a hive two ability or something. It is pathetic! The only good third hive ability now is Xeno and it seems to be fubared in some aspects as well.
Grenade spammers are rather bad for both sides. Sure, as a marine, I have a huge cloud of death surrounding me, but that gives my FPS a massive hit not to mention that I can't shoot any of the aliens. And the XP the grenader gets, I get none because he is a good distance from me and it doesn't apply. As aliens, you spends about 50% of your time as skulk. If one lucky marine goes for gl, it gets aggrivating enough to just quit the current game and find another.
I would love to play more classic NS, but don't for several reasons. One side usually dominates the other due to skill. I have no desire to ever comm again. All the noobs just sit around base, humping the armory asking for better stuff while the skulk rapes them from behind...

but but, i love those armoury humpers, easy kills. heh.
knockback, i dont know, i hear many ppl complaining about it, but, its neva happened to me. Maybe cause i jump when i bite..
OHOHOH, what i hate the most. When tryin to bunnyhop as skulk and u got 2 or 3 skulks in front of u that dont. AGH, can't stand goin that slow and not jumping.
Yeah, i hate the ppl that idle in rr waiting for co or a new map. All servers should have an autoassign if the player idles too long, or a kick if they aren't moving at all.
Yeah, and steam will only get better. Right now is the first time in like 6 months that there have been major problems, as to the every week problems. Heh. Yeah, i wish friends was on all the time.
