    Nice. Where're the recorders when you need them

    And I thought Exos are OP. You only need 11 Onoses to beat them.

    Oddly enough this is true. To me and also seen a lot of plays, finding it hard to hit skulks when right at the exo's feet and die at the hand of a single skulk. Also bilebome is a nice way to deal with exo

    Whats equally as impressive as the story itself is the fact that the server didn't crash ^^

    Yeah it is. I've had several 11v11 games that went on into the late game for some time and the servers seem to be much more stable.

    I was in that game. It was one hell of an hour with great teamwork on both sides. Marines just kept pushing the same spot and never really advanced.

    That muse of been amazing to play on the attacking and defending side. Chilling in your sweet new exo suit when 36 Oni come charging at you...

    [bitter]Turtling is rubbish. Bad gameplay, bad for performance, boring. Nice way to end the game though, maD maX, I bet it took a lot of teamwork, but it must also have taken a lot of time to acquire that res. Time better spent playing the game with all its twists and turns and dynamics and not some cramped, dragged out turtle fest.[/bitter]

    I can't find anything odd with having the weakest alien life forms be the counter to the hardest marine tech. This is how great stories are written. This is how you balance weak life forms in late game.

    shouldnt take that many onos to clear turtled marines, if fade had acid rockets that would fix that

    HAHAHHAHA I read this as if it was REALLY sarcastic and it made me laugh :D

    I think the cooler thing is that the attack probably would have been more effective with 3-4 Onos, a lerk or 2, and the rest all gorges!

    Turtling never seems to be a problem when the opisite team works together, they can work together to smash through turrets and pick of marines. Its when they dont work together properly then marines turtle and slowly start to push out.

    So.
    What happened to 11 exos. they would have foiled your plans piecemeal.
    Sorry to say this, but something went wrong on the marine team. VERY wrong.

    Playing as Aliens in this build is better. Nooby Marine comm always rush for Exosuits, lmao, leaving bases empty to be rushed.

    I also have fun wrecking exosuits with onos hehehehe. Onos needs more health and speed though :)

    When 26 Onoses don't beat 11 Exos, something went wrong with the game I think..
