This elitist and unwelcoming community reminds me why I never join online forums.

The game is balanced for 8v8 not 12v12.
24 player games have a big marine slant. Play on a 16 player server. -

I'd attribute it mostly to the fact there was an influx of new players and people are obsessed with playing gorge. My guess is it will even out to a slight marine advantage in a week or so.

I usually play on KingKahuna. There is usually an admin on, but occasionally late at night it can be a problem. I had 3 afkers in one game not too long ago, they were eventually kicked, but it was near the game end... Needless to s… -

Wow, just wow. There is no reason why I should even dignify this with a response. "I don't agree with someone, so he must be stupid!"
Nice. -

Sometimes, other times they just kill farm, or the losing team is really good at turtling.

I'm definitely having more fun as marines, I can tell you that much. The new phase gate is amazing. I just can't wait until people stop obsessing over gorges and stop dragging the team down.

Yes, actually it does.

ARCs fire through walls, that's what they are designed to do. If you were to remove that feature, it would make them worthless. The entire point is to be able to bypass turtling hives.

Skulks are called skulks for a reason. They are not meant to be, dipping and diving and doing impossible 720's mid-air. Their speed hasn't been lowered, only their ability to impossible maneuvers mid-air.
The acceleration thing is just a… -
Well, it's already been stated that the game is supposed to be balanced for 8v8 and from the games I've played, it seems pretty close. Marines don't get ROFL-stomped anymore and aliens actually have to try. Out of about 20 or so games, it's been pre…

Works fine to me.

Maybe, but I can still think of MANY situations that call for it.

Also, the fact that bile does DOT damage is atrocious. Gorges normally just bounce around in circles heal-spraying each other and bile bombing everything in site. By the time 2-4 marines kill them, the DOT damage has already whittled away most, if …

Because the point of a rookie FRIENDLY server is to be a place where advanced players and pros can teach new players how to play without them having to fear being kicked, banned, or yelled at. It completely defeats the purpose of a rookie …

Scouting doesn't do much and two gorges bile bomb a power node behind the frontlines, and once that power goes down, it's game over. It's not fair that aliens get a push-button-to-win advantage and marines don't even get anything d… -

It only works if you are the only one doing it and your are very good at what you do. It really just boils down to how much you harass and distract them.

In all honesty, if a person bases a game purchase off of what people say on the game's forums, they shouldn't be playing games. Forums are notorious for being cesspools of whiners and fanboys.

I wouldn't say it's at a great spot, it's more at an okay spot. Aliens still have the advantage and tweaks can always be made, and we have no idea how the gorge tunnels are going to throw off balance.

Seems like a lot of people are like this, especially in pubs. I'd like my games to be quick and to the point. I hate games that draw on forever, unless teams are an even match for each other. The turtling that can happen as a resul… -

My god, get off your pedestal. I've been playing since NS1 and I have every right to my opinion, but I guess since I don't frequent game forums I can't compete with your glorious thousand-post master race. Could you be any more pr… -

This is EXTREMELY common. I can't tell you how many times I've lost a winning game due to a couple of bile bombers hitting a power node way behind the front line. Tier 3 weapon and armor? Exos? Swimming in res? Doesn't matter, game… -

This is one of the biggest problems in regards to marine-alien balance. Everyone keeps saying it's a "learn to play" issue, and in many ways it is, but it mostly boils down to an difficulty issue. Aliens are simply easier to play. … -

You are forgetting the realists: the people who have played the game long enough to know when the game is lost with no hope of recovery. Believe it or not, not everyone likes getting kill-farmed for 10 minutes before the other team…
