I think people play passive as Marines because they can't hit skulks with the LMG so they decide to be a dedicated builder. After being downed by a team of skulks while running around lost and by themselves, I think a lot of players without micropho…

Basing your entire strategy every time on what works at the highest end of game play? You must be brilliant, far smarter than me. After all, it does take a lot of effort to cut and paste right?

If you don't play NS2, it's really tough to get better at NS2.
The real question is this; if the time it takes you to get 'good' at NS2 is time well spent.
If you like playing games that don't tell you anything, punish you he… -
Sure, put RFK in.
After all, any game that lasts longer than five minutes is a waste of your time! AMIRIGHT?!
Seriously though, RFK will result in games not lasting very long.

This guy pretty much spelled it out for you though. -
Ranged weapons, combined with near perfect aim, is simply going to win matches with NS2 being NS2.
There are other factors, but as long as you're shooting accurate bullets in the right rooms at the right times you're going to win.

I think it's because they are able to hit things effectively with their bullets, and are able to dodge bullets better when it's their turn to bite things.
Oh, and it might also be because 'competition' or 'sports' generally revolve aroun… -
Good argument King. I like a good ad hominem with my coffee.
Fades are ok, as long as the Marines don't have shotguns or any upgrades. They're 'effective' window is so small that it's a waste of 50 P.Res, in my opinion.

Oh I hear you, I just don't care if people agree with me.
I think that it might be simply impossible to come up with a shotgun model that doesn't either:

Yup, I'm sure a lot of Gorge players would much rather be nursing an entire map full of cysts, since you need one every ten feet or so, versus Marines who build a few things in a small area and move on.
You should to…Where is my mid-game tech to one shot Marines from far away?
I mean, if it's totally fair for a Marine to gib an aliens player up close (You know, the only envelope a skulk can attack in?) then it should also be totally fair for an Onos …You mean people don't want to purchase a video game that turns out to be 'experts only' with no explanations what-so-ever other than outdated wiki's and amorphous and often incorrect player advice?
Shocking.
It's cool though,…Shift first is useful enough for the shift structure and fast building a second hive. At which point you would probably want to decide which of the four upgrades you really want. Armor is certainly a safe bet.
If you don't have any decen…(Quote)
I tend to agree with you. Shotguns should be powerful since it's high-risk and should be high-reward for that. It's just absurd when the envelope of combat is melee range and the Marine has the upper hand. Even just a few HP more r…(Quote)
That sounds like a bit more common sense. Even if the Fade does get the first hit he is required to enter the shotguns 'melee' range which is the most dangerous place to be. A fade is a 100% melee character, whereas a shotgun is bo…I can say with 100% accuracy that there was no place that was safe inside that vent before. You didn't need a grenade launcher to tag the gorge either. As someone else pointed out, Marines can climb into those vents in the first place.
I…The thing is King, you're completely arguing from the point of view that you're playing with competent, competitive Marines and professional grade skulks. Ergo, of course Shift is less viable than crag if you're entire aliens team is made up of pro …This has been said before.
If UWE doesn't put one out, you're more than capable of making your own balance mod for use on independently run servers. While I'd like one, I'm too lazy to make one myself.
If you aren't willing t…While theory isn't playing the game, and the change isn't a huge one at the end of the day, it does make every other Marine weapon look a little more like total crap.
