About that third to last screenshot. (the one with 4 marines in the background in the red hallway) Is that a problem with the video drivers, or are the marines <i>supposed</i> to glow like that?
They <i>were</i> supposed to glow like that. Power armor. But it's been taken out/replaced with Heavy armor. So you shouldn't see any glowing marines come release day.

No, it doesn't. Power armour regenerated over time. Heavy armour doesn't, but it protects you more. You could combine power armour and jetpacks, but you can't combine jetpacks and heavy armour.

Anyone else notice how far off center the LMG is in the first Screen? i hope its fixed before the release because if theres one thing that pizzez me off on the regular its good models with crappy origins... ive seen plenty of awsome models reduced to garbage because they aint lined up with the crosshair and/or held like the guy has lepracy.
Woah, settle down cowboy! A centered gun is not the life or death of a mod! But, to make you happy, the gun just sways around some in it's idle animation when you are not shooting, so in the shot, it has swayed to the right a little. When you shoot, it does shoot in line with the crosshair.
whew... okay good i didnt mean to sound so uptight but for every mod i find the gun models really make or break it with me. like with CS and DoD i have about 90% of ALL the models in the game changed to custom ones. so i'm really used to seeing high quality models. thats why it makes me mad to see a great model ruined because it looks like the guy is holding it at a queer angle, or it doesnt line up with the crosshair witch looks equally screwy. but then agian im not a big fan of sway animations either. but i'll get used to it (or wait for some custom content <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->)
Whitch reminds me, anyone out there planning on releasing some custom models once this mutha drops?

im sure plenty of people will release custom models...but it will be hard 2 beat the standard models <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

Overwatch is a feature that will turn your character into a living sentry gun if you go AFK for a minute or so. Basically a measure against cheap AFK kills. It was cut because it was too effective -- a valid marine strategy was to leave an overwatcher by some choke point, and he would cut down small-to-medium alien attacks with ease. It'll probably be back in the future, but probably not version 1.

I say they should make an overwatch mode, but make it only happen if you have your knife out, and when things get close you hack at them. <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->
hmmm that overwatch mode sounds useful, but i guess people can and will take advantage of it. just imagine a whole team of 10 marines afk. they'd be unstoppable...well, aslong as they are afk...
My sig was removed way before u posted man, try refrshing the page <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->
