<div class="IPBDescription">The Aliens Have Been Made Crap</div> I am annoyed at this new patch as an alien. The alien team have been made so rubbish now. ive played 3 games since it came out and my team have lost everyone because of this damn ""Siege Turret"" we cannot do anything when one of those is built. I think it should be taken off altogether to make it fair unless aliens have something like that.

    But... the siege turret isn't new, and they raised the price on it...

    Cookie is, of course, talking about this line of the patch:
    <b>Fixed explosion bug where siege cannons, bilebombs, grenades and xenocide weren't doing damage properly (this broke in v1.02).</b>

    But yes, it's screwy. They lock-on INSTANTLY and took out 2 Gorges(me one of them) when we were like, on the other side of the room all in ONE shot. Then their rate of fire is wild...

    Oh well, we still won that game through me being lerk and the rest of 'em going onos, plus a skulk rush helps

    But damagewise...

    First of, nobody wants to keep you from giving constructive criticism about the new patch.

    Saying 'this patch sucks' does, however, does <b>not</b> qualify as constructive.

    By the way, the easiest way of preventing siegebuilding is spreading some sensory chambers in the rooms near your hive and get there when one of them registers multiple marines.
    What you say? You never build sensory before the third hive is up?

    Gosh, I guess you'll have to readjust. Tough luck.
