That's like saying that because Charles Manson lived in the US, you'd better never trust an American. Just because some of the ideas in I&S aren't good, the rest doesn't have to be bad.

Not to mention that scorpion was a loooong time ago. Something like a year and a half, I think.

And we all found it hilarious, so it is a good idea in a way <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

TheGlow

Perfect fix if you ask me, is keep the red aura on marines with SoF, even if their on the screen.
More than once Ive run around to chase a red outline, turn a corner, and stop because I cant see crap and then get riddled with holes.
Makes no sense. I can smell through steel walls, rocks, water, whatever.
And then when Im point blank, Durrr.

I know a few times in the middle of a fight, spinning around, or something sets off the SoF to make it seem like he was behind a wall so i see them momentarily with red glob on them.
Looks weird but id easily adjust to it if they let us see that when on the screen.

i think it would be cool if when you turn on the flashlight instead of just lighting up all the aliens around you, you also put off this glow yourself so you can see everything around you within 10 feet or so.

TribalDaniel

what you need to do is make it so it works like scent of fear. When you turn on flashlight it reveals enemies with the red circle that are on your screen ( not through walls or on the other side of the room ) however, when your flashlight is on, skulks eyes should turn bright red, it would even out with marine being light by their flashlights.

TheGlow

What I want to know is if the skulks eyes are on the outside, why is the view from the inside of the mouth?
Are the eyes on the outside some silly decoy?

Necrosis

They're bacteria. They don't have eyes.

Petco

Wonder if turning all maps dark again like it used to be and making alien flash light light up everything would do?

or.. You could go for the Alien vs Predator look, where the alien flashlight makes everything white, expect for marine who are black. So basicllly all you would see is white and an onccasional black
