<div class="IPBDescription">every Techpoint</div>I love Docking, but that doesn't change the fact the powernode placement in Techpoints of Docking is horrible
I actually cannot understand why they are all on easily spottable and vunerable place. Except Cafeteria and Generator which has almost nothing to do with marine base and powernode, other powernodes in Terminal, Tram, and Locker Room are just too much vunerable especially against bilebomb and cause to ruin the game.
I am not whining at usual Base Rush on Terminal, but complaining how it ruins gameplaywise. Cos of bad placement, marines can only be defensive. They can be distracted too easily if some gorges set forward castle nearby and keep bilebomb without threat the powernode which is far from distance(Tram Departure and Terminal) or even not visible(Locker Room).This makes it vanish to control good map.
Because of this, i have seen some unacceptable loses on Marines as they seemed to win the game almost 90 Percent. They lost not because of Base Rush, but disturbation on Bilebomb which cannot be disturbed and lose map control and good bye
I am pretty sure some of you agree with this. And to the others, who do not agree with it, i hope if you don't give me examples of noob teamplaying Aliens experiences. It must be fixed!
Furthurmore i really think there must be another route head to Gen for Marines. It aliens get Locker as Base and control Gen with blocking Gorges, they can hold 4 Harvesters without threat.

Yes, we've discussed doing exactly that. We'll probably make that change for the next update.
