Unless ... u want to punish the aliens for not choosing the right strategy to hit turtled marines by steeling everybodys time ... gg. Unless ... u want to give the marines enough time to build their arc-train and turn the round.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Because when the game has a techpoint/tiering system in place. It won't need it..
Not to mention, that's just another thing they would have to fit in within the 2 months before release. Not going to happen. And still as it is now, Aliens can still win these stalemates. With the entire map you can load up a few Onos and Gorges and annihilate the Marine base in 10-20 seconds. Just takes coordination and teamwork.
You can easily end games where Marines turtle on one base by having 4-5 people go onos and rush their com stations.
If Marines have two bases on the other hand, better hope the Alien com has stockpiled enough t.res to cyst/whip spam the bases or might as well just jump into ready room, because you're not going to win it unless Marines are bad.

However its always possible. Take down powernode, have 1 onos guard it while everyone else kills marines.
Alternatively, cyst spam and echo whips into base. But arcs make that impossible.
Not sure how well this will work when exosuits come in, hopefully exosuits will not be the cheap trick that jetpacks are.
