It was insane and hectic. Finally the Kharaa did manage to steamroll the Marines, but it was very hard-fought, and mostly hinged on the Comm getting too tired to think clearly, and placing a few TFs badly so a Skulk could sneak down beside 'em. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> Think I may have been one of the few who actually lasted out the entire game. Most of the rest would go Gorge to dump their res when they were ready to leave, or toss down their weapons for a teammate.
THAT was a truly epic game.
*Imagines battle-hardened space marines surrendering an epic battle cause they have to go to the bathroom*
and if it was one of the games like Tale described (constant fighting back and forth, not turtling and such) its very hard to tear your self away <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
my best one was a game that went from 3v7 (aVm) to 1v7 (meVs the rines) back up, and finaly to a win for aliens.
Admitadly, that was b/c the rines sucked and never checked maintanence when I was putting it up/lamming the crap outa it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
combat = 3 hours - 2.1 - again, on lan with my friends... faceoff (i think)
lan games last alot longer than any other games.
Food was mostly frozen burritos.. up to pop two or three in the nuke, then back to fight while they cooked. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

hmm, once in 2.0 i had a 3hr game in lost.
and in 3.0 beta 3 i had a 4 hour game in caged. that map seems to be set up for looooong games. <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And i played a 5 hour game back on 1.04 it was on nancy. We like 3 res nodes and ppl were just camping in base and had a phase to one of their hives so they couldnt get all the attacks like xeno and we just held on for longer and longer. Eventually 2 guys jped to the hive and just hmg's / shottied it down with an inffinate supply of ammo and med's
I am not kiding I went onos 6 times and died in every one of them. It was impossible, once to placed one foot in their base your HP would go to 200 in a second because of the turrets and 10 marines firing constantly did the rest. We spent 1 hour in this position until one crazy onos managed to destroy 3 turrets and digest 2 heavy marines. 2 lerk started fiiring umbra and 4 <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo--> attacked the base. 1 minute later everything ended. Great game and good team work made it passible.

OH THE GOOD OL DAYS
Wait...there was no com why? No one noticed you f4ing, then rejoining rines, then getting in the chair, then recycling everything? Sounds like the marines were just looking for an way to lose with dignity, so they let you sabotage them so they could blame you later. Either that, or they were really really tired and couldn't care less.
