1.1 Onos

<div class="IPBDescription">Possible Fix for Unbalance</div> Quick suggestion: Make the onos a 2 Hive alien. It seems a little too powerful to me to have an Onos as 1 hive, seeing as how they destroy everytihng in their path in a matter of seconds.

I just seem to remember that onos was supposed to be available to end the 2 Hive lockdown... and it makes sense for the hives to be more than just upgrades.

Thoughts?

    Don't complain about something you haven't personally tested, mmkay? (please!) I don't know, but I"ve played on plenty of games where the aliens controlled so much res, that we could rebuild WOL as fast as they could suit up in HA and charge at it. A fade or Onos would have meant victory for the aliens (since we did win the res war). Sometimes you can win those games in 1.04 but it's much more difficult and leads to VERY long games (2 1/2 hours, 3-4 hours even). An onos at 1 hive is a speed issue, if you can go onos while still at one hive, the marines are slow as molasses.

    Wouldnt matter you get 2hives and onos at about the same time.

    My $0.02 on the whole Onos stomp nerfing issue, that I can't post to in the 1.1 forum, is maybe if you allowed the stompees to retain the ability to fire, but removed their ability to reload... But I really just love the pure horror that comes after hearing the click! click! click! sound of an empty firearm.

    Of course, I may just be smoking crack and have no idea what I'm talking about. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Agreed. Lucky for you, cr3am, you dont have to worry about this problem! Only those who have 1.1 need worry about this. Sit back and enjoy the ride, no need to make suggestions for something you have no idea what it is like anyway...

    i wasn't complaining. I was simply making a suggestion in an attempt to help out a little bit. If it's a bad suggestion, then so be it.
