    I usualy go with Aliens myself. It's just cool to have them morph and upgrade them up! I have this weird thing in my head which makes me upgrade them all the way before attacking. I like MAJOR defense. The Marines provide that but it kind of gets boring if nothing can get through, in or out.. Aliens don't provide the "unlimited turret defense' thing". Also it's just fun to go out solo sometimes and rape some Marines. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Marines. It might sound geeky, but I just think it feels really cool fighting to defend Earth (or whatever, I don't know the story) and fighting an alien race trying to kill us all.

    And I prefer guns over slime.

    I normally play as aliens, but I have no problem going marines in order to even the teams.

    Before the last patch the aliens were always short on players so I always ended up switching teams to the aliens to make up the numbers and have been addicted to playing them since <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    These days I avoid the marines because it seems that even if the commanders good the rest of the team run around like headless chickens and all you can hear 2 minutes into the game is "Can I get an HMG"

    Prefer aliens, but I think that was for the extream novelty of it when NS first came it. They had such different playing styles, I enjoyed learning them. Now that I know the ins and outs of Kharra play, I'm joining the ranks of the TSA more and more, to learn that side.

    So I have no real preference, both sides are fun to play.

    Personally, I prefer the speed of the aliens. I see the marines as just too clumsy against a well planned alien attack. Have you ever seen marines Spawn and Spawn and Spawn and still completely unable to kill an Onos rampaging through their base? Or how about that unsuspecting soldier walk under the doorway on top of which lies his doom?

    I always play on the team that is losing when I join the server. If aliens have less kills (and maybe players) than marines, I join them. If marines are getting a royal arse-whooping, I help them out (even when I know that I'm just one more person in the Alamo). And at the very beginning of a game, I always join the team that lost the last game.

    ...well, unless I was the commander and marines won. Then, if people really want me back, I'll command again. I prefer, however, to let other aspiring commanders to try out some of the techniques they witnessed me using during the last game. Nothing like seeing other marines use your own techniques to help them win the game; imitation is the highest form os flattery.

    i am either commander or aliens, i hate being a marine cuz it consists of constantly whining for res nodes weapons and proper upgrades, and i get killed typing all the time

    aliens i can just do my own thing and it doesnt really matter
