<div class="IPBDescription">Green Stuff</div>Recently I've been running on green stuff, and noticing...
1. Its hard to move. Well. Ever run across a metal floor in steel shod boots? No? Didn't think so.
2. Aliens Regen more... I guess, good idea, this works.
3. Can't place what....its NANO tech, not bio tech.
4. PLZ tell me aliens dont do more DMG on infestation.....that would be like the Hammer of Mjolnar in Q1 MP1, or the 'Shield of Redemption' in Q1 MP2.... why would I go there when it hurts to do so....
5.Punishment for being good will never earn player respect.
Have a good day!

<ul><li>Passive health regen.</li><li>Gorges can belly-slide for fast movement</li></ul>
Effects I know of for marines running on the "Green Stuff":
<ul><li>Much slower sprinting, but no change to normal movement.</li><li>Visible to the entire alien team on map & hud as if they were temporarily parasited</li></ul>
I like this one but hate the three others.
Wow, really? You hate the Gorge belly-slide?! But it's so awesome!!
I'm pretty happy with all the effects at the moment. Especially the temporary negatives for the marines. It gives them a reason to change their tactics and actually use their thinking muscles instead of just their twitchy ones.
@Codeine, depends on your health and the distance to the hive, it's often useful to step on infestation to get a small heal.
But it saves your life simetimes if you are burning.
Another pro for the Aliens on infestation is also that they don't do footstepsounds on it.
And if infestation touches mines they will explode.
While they blink their stink tears away ... I bite their Achilles tendon
when they fall over me and my brothers feast.
To the topic: There are other threads handling the infestation mechanic.
