Removal of Alien Commander

wilksy

Now aliens have a commander , the gorge role has been limited and removes a large section to the game. A strong gorge used to be able to swing the whole game, by getting res up and building strategic chambers where needed, now you just end up running around healing onoses! I just hope someone makes a mod to revert back to the old way soon.

there's already a classic mod server floating around somewhere. unless it was taken down.

I believe NS2:Classic has what you're looking for: <a href="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=100103964&searchtext=ns2c" target="_blank">http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/file...searchtext=ns2c</a>

But personally, the Alien Commander is great but has much room for improvement. Gorge no doubt suffered during the transition, but hopefully he'll receive more abilities/structures soon.

I have a lot of fun playing as the Khammander. Obviously there are a lot of usability/UI improvements to be made for it, and hopefully after they've got that down pat many more people will enjoy it.

I agree that the gorge feels somewhat useless to me right now, Alltho when trying to push to a base as onos+2gorges and a 2nd onos I found the healing from the 2 gorges meant that I did not have to retreat to safety as I would previously I would only have to go around a corner to the 2 gorges defending themselves using hydras and well placed blocks to quickly have my health bumped back up and be back out into the combat faster than before and if any marine(s) were to chase they would die in the process thanks to the gorges, They are a teamplay only life form... standalone they are nothing but I do agree they need something a little more.. maybe 2 or 3 other buildables (Limited to 1 or maybe 2 if there is a large range required between the 2 similar structures") Theres no structures I would say will be great and unique but it's not my job to create them anyway, Just something to help in conflict/holding the line in a major fight.

Also thankyou so much for not demanding it be removed and talking about a mod. I'm used to people who would demand it be removed and gorge hugely buffed rather than letting the current idea be improved upon.
