Have any top clans actually tried using exos or FTs in matches, despite the flaws? I'm curious as innovation can sometimes be found despite perceived limitations.
-
I like the idea of the hallucinations having the ability to attack (with no damage). If this triggered an alert as well this could be used to generate the appearance of rushes etc to divide forces. The idea of the Shade hive to me is subterfuge and …

Bring on the evo chamber!

There are more slaves now then there ever have been in human history.
-
I agree with the OP. It would be great to hear some more ingame music. Maybe it could be triggered by certain actions and proximity to that action (eg build of certain structures, stepping on infestation, deaths, beginning of rounds etc.)
-
Have any modders tried alterations with babblers? It would be interesting to know what would happen if...
A. Their speed was greatly increased
B. The damage they deliver was greatly increased, and/or
C. If you hit a marine with a b… -

You're derailing the thread.
Thanks Samus for the work! -
The map looks amazing. My only hope is they add a bit more of the human touch. As in little things that show that it has been lived in, and perhaps indicators as to what happened to make it deserted. These things add a real immersive element (think …

Contentious suggestion (?): Make marines slower, not able to uber-jump, but make less bullets required to kill (i.e. BULLETS DO MORE DAMAGE). This means that:
- a better marines is one who is better at positioning and has better accuracy, and;… -
I haven't seen what tumour does (though I'm interested to know), but in terms of a viable upgrade that assists skulks late game I think something that addresses the impossibility of killing jetpackers.
2 examples I can think of:
- A skul… -

@sewlek Small suggestion. Make the babbler damage higher when they hit marines. They are a minor annoyance on the ground which makes them only useful as a shield, or to har…

Groovy. Mine is ReapMyster

Maybe you could tie the the evolution chamber to biomass in some way to reduce confusion. For example, instead of having biomass researchable in the hive, the evolution chamber itself IS the biomass.
As a result, you can only build 2 evo… -

I really like the symbiosis idea. Perhaps you could keep some of the idea of the current build in that, when in proximity to certain structures, you can either:
- research those particular traits (with options shade to fade, skulk requiring no… -
I think this is primarily about the colour. Choose green or blue with the same functionality would make the difference. I think it's about how the orange is unpleasant to the brain (psychology!)
-
When I started this thread I hadn't considered arcs. Doesn't this solve the problem? If the kham has the res to whiponate the base then the common should have enough res for some arc defence.
-
Hate to say it @Idleray but I didn't think of arcs. Boy is my face red. Has anyone used this as a counter? Might do that next time.
-
Agree. There are many traits only available in third hive. If both teams are equally matched they shouldn't have a nuke. That being said I'm not against contaminate, I was an advocate, it just needs adjustment
-
Instead of making the screen brighter when you go into light, maybe just make the contrast on marines reduced so it's harder to distinguish. That way you still have the light / dark advantages, but not the headache

I agree. Part of managing expectations is communication. I think the main reason is that UWE playtest new ideas constantly up until release, so you are not 100% guaranteed of the end result of a new patch. This means you can't rele… -
I think UWE releasing B252 was a stroke of genius. Imagine the amount of complaints they would be getting if this stuff came out on Reinforced.
The extent to which some of the community members have reacted to changes borders on abusive.… -
Also there is some new tactics for khams with the changes. Such as using shades to hide the spread of infestation (structures move much faster now)
-
I actually really like the drifter eggs. You can place them anywhere on infestation in the map!
-
Put on YouTube so I can watch on my nexus 7 please!
-
@Chizzler I would imagine it would be a late game, 3rd hive / biomass ability definitely. I don't think that it necessarily will pull marines back as they still have opti…
-
I think it would just be a question of the distance between infestation and the "ulceratation" ability (that's what I'm gonna call it for the mo), and also how mature the cysts/infestation needs to be before you can "ulcurate" the base.
… -
I like Benson's idea of some ability which immediately infests an area so you can echo in whips etc. It suits asymmetrical gameplay and allows aliens a means of fighting marine turtles.
Maybe fully matured and abundant amounts of cysts w…
