You must watch out about that Exos cannot be beaconed.

<div class="IPBDescription">kind of good idea of UWE</div>You can't drag Exos back just like other normal marines to the command chair. So that's what marine commanders need to think about it, being too excited, and let all the players get exos and push their hives, which would cause kinda sad counterattack on base's powernode.

And that, base rushing is in contrast one of the best tactic of all time for aliens, and now even more, as exos aren't able to be beaconed back.

    Another thing is to make sure your marines can easily get back to the exo's if they have been beaconed. Exo's by themselves tend to die quickly without welders or marines shooting skulks off their feet.

    Definitely needs to be in a tooltip or warning somewhere.. Its very easy to forget.
    see NS2HD's latest gameplay video of a playtest that turned into a pub when the patch went live, this scenario happened like 4 times

    The exo is not like a heavy. It's strong and vulnerable at the same time. Big thumb up.
