Best post EVER. This should be pinned...at the top...near the logo.
I am a hybrid ninja/engineer. I always manage to sneak by somehow and end up alone in the most bizarre place, where I am sadly usually ignored by the comm.
His name is NSPlayer. Always tries to join marine team even if they're a hundred others chilling at "Join Marines". Once in game, sees a gorge and tries to pet it. Thinks that they are cute teddy bears and attemps to protect it from the skulks, only to be run over by five of them. Can barely get out of base, if he does it is pure luck. Asks: "s1 tell me how 2 buy a gun plz". Stares at offense chambers in confusion and gets killed 5 seconds 10 seconds later. Receives a jp/hmg, doesn't know where the hive is, uses all the jp's energy and falls do his death.[/QUOTE] And this: [QUOTE]Capital Obvious
This marine generally resembles a reporter, BUT reports things that are so incredibally obvious.
Let me give you an example...
Our base is under attack from charging onos and fades, and this marine will say umm guys i think we gotta kill em to stop them from attacking.
and he will also do victory chats when everybody knows he got the most noobish spray and pray kill.[/QUOTE] Also, [QUOTE]The Stoner
Man this is good ****! Wow man that aliens like coming right at me! Dude I could stare at these skulk teeth for hours! Wow chill out man all he did was kill..........DUDE look a switch! That hive texture is sooooo trippy![/QUOTE] Not to mention: [QUOTE]California Dude
Calls everyone 'dood', when he's commander and everyone's getting stressed because the base is under attack he's like 'hey chill guys, it's gonna be okay'. Often found chilling with the aliens.[QUOTE]

[QUOTE]The Reporter
Incessantly using the voice comm non-stop to report stuff that everybody knows, or does NOT want to know, for example..
'OMG, whaaaaahhh RUN! AAaaargggh, he nearly got me! Whooahh'
'They're killing our hive, aaarrrgghhh, some marines trying to knife me, whhhaaaahhhh, that was close, wooooo here they come again!!.. aaarrghhh'
'Wooahh, my healths down to half, man I'm nearly dead, they're shooting acid rockets at me, wooooooo... runaway, runaway, **** he got me.'
and so forth....[/QUOTE]
lol thats me too...right after making a welder kill i babble on about it for 10 minutes!
Allow me to point out some more commander types that i've experienced:
<b>The Brick Wall:</b>
So stubborn he will never listen to his team or even anyone else in the game. This command style is sometimes the result of a hardcore 'RTS dictator' or a even a 'CS guy' so used to his other mods. Also similair to Mr. Inept. Thank god I was an alien for that game, because he was also Mr. Transportation and turret happy, building a Phase gate in the middle of his turret farm in ns_hera and then a second PG by the comm chair...LOL he claimed it made the elevator obselete.
<b>The Pyro:</b>
Explosions are pretty... makes a armory in the middle of ns_eclipse and dishes out mines like there is no tommorrow. If his team has enough thinkers/grunts then the enemy will be trapped in their first hive in a couble of minutes...this strategy also has tremendous capacity to fail miserably.
<b>The Unstable:</b>
Decent commander who has a pretty good game goin but when he sees that first acid rocket melt his rambo its "HOLY CRAP GUYS WE LOST!" and an F4
<b>The "if you have any mercy kill me now" Swift-death-seeking Commander:</b>
Similair to the above two and also Crazed Monk's "game-finisher" the swift-death commander recycles his expansion bases and TF's and dispenses 15 packs of mines next to his comm chair. He then hops out and surrounds his tightly-packed building cluster, especially the spawn portals, with mines. He orders his team to retreat to base and stands there in the thicket, waiting for that one faitful acid-rocket. LOL I played with a commander like this on ns_tanith...funny as hell...i hopped in comm chair for a second to *try* to save our team and with a shotgun-rush and when i hopped out everything was gone <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo--> I was then brutally beaten and stabbed to death in a most painful fashion by 4 fades. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
<b>The Spiteful ****</b>
Same as above, but will dish out 20 packs of mines and plant them until the server crashes! <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Mkay perhaps that was my first post lol but guys how do you do the quotes?? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
The Hunter: Favorite weapons are JP and HMG, good for killing enemy's 1 on 1, specialises in fades but is not much use as a teamplayer.. This class will usually ask the comm for JPHMG, and kill a hive only for it to be rebuilt seconds later. Good for ending games if enemy has skulks, but not much else.

Im part Rambo, Hunter and Thinker, i dont like to build stuff or weld stuff, but specialise in that free role comms give.. gorg hunting securing an area ect... usually the first to run off to a choke point in a map and rack up the kills while my teammates do the donkey work, while aliens are distracted by me. (good areas such as vent at cargo hive on nothing, or south loop on eclipse ect...)

Definitely marksman/thinker/booby trapper. I love a good mine kill. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Although, near the end of a game I know we're losing I tend to become a TSA fanatic. I basically charge any fade I see, in hopes of doing at least marginal damage to them.
