i've only played ns2 a few times, and so far i actually really like it. there is far more diversity in the game and far more variation, which is good.
one of the big issues i found with ns1.04 was it often took a long time for the marines to win when they had the 2 hive lock down...
now, it seems to take even longer to win...
i have no idea how to address this, but there should be some point where the marines can end things quicker. when the aliens get the third hive, it tends to end very quickly. the third hive abilities are such that with them you can slaughter most marines unless they have a lot of res. there is nothing sitting at the top for marines bar ha hmg with level 3 guns and armour, but aliens can still fight these strongly.
perhaps there should be a level of tech for the marines above the level 3 ha hmg style, that assuming they have the res to support it, will offer the speed needed for the end game?
