Nerf Aliens!

Donner & Blitzen

<div class="IPBDescription">Nerf Aliens!</div>I'm tired of getting killed by OP aliens!

Instead of playing as Skulks, Gorges, Lerks, etc., all alien players should play as microscopic bacteria, or "Bakt". The alien players cannot see or move or do anything, except generate resources slowly. Once they have enough resources, players can perform mitosis. This continues indefinitely until marines win the game.

The marines can buy <i>Lysol</i> from the Armoury at the cost of 5 res, with which they use to spray entire map with. When a Lysol spray hits an alien player, the alien player gets stunned for 5 seconds.

The commander can research nanite-encrusted boots from the Protolab for 20 res, 1 minute research time, which allows marines to deal damage over time to any aliens they step on.

The thought of playing microscopic bacteria that does.... 'nothing' for x amount of time is pointless in my opinion.

You think res ######s are a problem in NS1... what do you think everybody is goign to want to do at the start of the round?


Besides, one priority objective for both teams is to secure and protect as many resource nodes as possible - Doing this gives each team an advantage.

Simply being able to let your team get raped whilst you sit on a wall, all whilst the rines are grabbing resource towers seems very unbalanced to me...

Maybe it's reverse sarcasmology.

After mitosis, do you keep control of both halves? Do you need to wait for a player to connect? Is there advanced AI for the second half?

I think here is a great application for dual-monitors. You could also plug in an extra mouse to a USB port.
