Oki i see most players on the servers... go out solo on the servers with out waypoints or commands to follow...
I don't think thats the way to play cuz... Players just whine 4 stuff at the base and then find som resource and whine 4 stuff there.... and that realy gets anoing' for the commander... if like 5 players are whining 4 stuff at different locations of the map....
When U play marine.... Always w8 4 you commander to guide U... by making waypoints and structures...
That way The commander always knows where his troops are... and if he see it right then he will also drop stuff 4 u.... think of it as chess.... or RTS don't go fraggin some onos alone cuz he kills u verry fast... just w8 4 your commander to give orders.... to follow.... if he's not giving commands the eject him...

Most of the commanders I've saw, are lazy or something..
But i agree, the commander has the final say when things get built, and if a few marines are following orders and getting things built, but the other marines are running around and shouting for ammo and health, then i say stuff em!
You either follow orders and work as a team or you die and your team loses, simple as that.
This game is very much built around TEAMWORK!, this is not CS or TFC or DOD, where you can go off and do your own thing, this game REQUIRES that you work together for the max chance of success.
Now playing as a marines i tend to stay in the base at start, build things up and wait for the comm to give me a waypoint to the next res or hive, which works wonders, as a marine the comm will build and give you stuff if your where he/she expects you to bo.
Only thing that really bothers me is a slow/thick or new commander who doesn't know what he is doing, if it is the later then i try to help him/her using either voice or typing, normally we lose anyway as they are learning, but players who just shout for med and ammo when a comm is trying is just asking to be left out there on their own.
I think its a 2 way thing here, you have to help your comm as much as he/she helps you, remember that word "TEAMWORK", very important here. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
Even worse when you get a hmg instead and manage to take out the defenders and start chewing on the hive. After several minutes of spawncamping and still no ammo or backup, and finally you cant hold out anymore...
When I'm a marine I usually get outside the base and crouch in some dark corner and ambush the rushing skulks instead <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
With a good position, preferrably in a long corridor, you can hold off skulks until you run out of ammo.
I don't see this very often, but to use the aliens own tricks against them can be very useful. Just because they have scary models, don't mean they aren't humans <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
