The sceneario. We hives and the marines have the 3rd secured( even if its not to heavy). ive noticed that more and more people will just steam into the marines base and attack that. While i can see the need to keep ontop of the marines amke sure they have nothing sneaky lurking up their sleeves(sometimes it makes the game when they do) does anone else feel that its better when all hives are got by the aliens.

Does no one bother to try get the 3rd hive anymore?


On and another thing....what is it with people that keep rushing the marine base within the first couple of minutes till its dead and the match finnishes.....THEN GLOAT how "elite" they are....i feel that its better to steam in and munch em a bit, but be sporting/or parasite em....

What flaya was saying in 1.1 about the games being shorter im sure this is gonna happen even more

    reason some people do this is because if the marines cant even hold off a fade attack on their base, theyre gonna lose their third hive anyway. if fades are sufficient, why bother wasting time on attacking the third hive (and possibly failing and letting marines tech up) than just killing them? and usually while some fades are attacking marine start, a few others are attacking third hive. youve probably never noticed them because you were at the front line, attacking marine base with everyone else.

    It only takes one player to remove a turret farm (it just takes less time if he's a lerk or fade). Forcing the marines to stay in their spawn will remove the only real threat: actual marines.

    Well it only takes 1 alien to take down a turret factory with a blindspot and no marine/mines support, but this is generally very rare, so in most cases one alien can't take down a TF. If you mean a skulk that attacks and runs for about 5 minutes with a TF with no blindpots then yes, but generally its a team effort to take down a turret farm, especially when they have 2 TFs.

    attack marine base, unless they relocate, then just drop an oc or two that will eventually finish of this base (and drive the comm mad "your base is under attack") and then go attack the new base
