I think it's close to balanced. I have seen plenty of wins by both teams, and the number of alien wins isn't significantly higher from what I can tell.

Kevin, that's because CS has been around longer, has more influence, and attracts people like you who lack the ability to use their brain. Yes, I think CS is boring. That's an individual opinion. The opinion of a million other people doesn't change that at all. Now quiet, and try to keep the thread on topic.

Ahem. Firstly, I (apparently) have to remind our members that one of the Forum rules is to remain polite and civil at all times. This thread's already broken down into insults.
Secondly, the playerbase still has not had time to fully adapt. Heck, the mod hasn't even been out for a full month yet. There's a reason we have a waiting period on the I&S forum after a major release... so we don't have to deal with threads like this any more often than absolutely neccessary. Short version, the 2.0x and 3.0b5- strats don't work as they used to. Come up with new strats, use teamwork (that's right, rambos usually die!), and the game will show its balance... which was pretty good, at last check.
Thirdly, given that you did not have the ability to start a poll, why did you feel the urge to start a spam-poll thread? PM a moderator or admin if you would like to request a poll... if it has merit, one will be created. However, these kinds of thread generate nothing but spam. And accordingly, this thread now meets the same fate all spam-threads do, in being...
