If you want to win easily, do Jetpack/HMG rush:
1 IP
1 Armory
1 Arms Lab
-Build all structures very close to eachother, preferably to a corner where you have visual from your CC so you can log out and shoot skulks.
-Give marines 1 pack of mines and tell them to put it on the floor near your buildings.
-Send marines to the nearest RT and build it.
-Save for lvl 1 gun upgrade and start it.
-Send marines to second nearest RT (not near their start hive, ask your marines where the start hive is if you can't hear it).
-Save for 2nd RT and build it.
-Save for lvl 2 gun upgrade and start it.
-Send marines for 3rd nearest RT and build it.
-Save for lvl 1 armor upgrade and start it (2nd upgrade for guns takes long so you might just capture more RTs after 3rd RT and start armor upgrade when you can).
-If you think your marines are good and they attack enemy start hive and keep aliens busy, get even more RTs.
-Save for Prototype Lab and build it.
-Save for Jetpack upgrade and start it.
-Save for Advanced Armory upgrade and start it.
-If you're doing well and you have 4-5 RTs, save for lvl 3 guns upgrade and start it.
-Make sure to recycle any RTs IMMEDIATELY (if you don't have marines very close) after you hear "Your structure is under attack". Press JUMP to reach buildings under attack quickly so you can recycle.
Now you just save 100-200 resources, give Jetpack and a HMG to the best player in your team, then second best and so on (equip whole team if you can). Now you tell them to attack aliens 2nd hive (or first if it has low defense, use marines for scouting). Once the hive is gone, you can take one of your marines and tell him to get more RTs (if you have less than 4). Then send your marines to aliens first hive and do whatever you like, because at this point aliens are calling you a "lamer" or "cheap" and are probably too demoralized to do anything right.
Summary:
The entire point is to get Advanced Armory, Prototype Lab for jetpacks, upgrades for your marines and lots of Resource Towers for kicka$$ guns as fast as possible.
usually after the arms and obs, (i then go for mines) well after that then the real decision u can make for arms lab or obs.
arms lab for quick upgrades and ur rines live longer or obs and get pg or mt, it all depends on what u want or how u wanna play.
personally i go for obs because u get pg which u usually require, but then again u will need the arms lab, and the good thing with marines is u can get upgrading on ur people instantly and have the edge for the first 5 mins of the game untill the aliens get dc. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
1x armory
some RTs near base
Arms Lab
1 lev upgrades
Secure hive with TF only
Obs and PGs
Adv armory
Proto lab and JP with HMGs for second hive
Final asault on main hive.
Usually i have lot of time coz gorge is killed at rush and till the rush of respawning marines is over (skilks and OCs) i have adventage in tech :>
IP
Armory
Get two nodes
Arms Lab
Armor 1
Protolabe
Recycle Arms Lab
Research Advanced Armory
Research Jetpacks
For a team of 6 players I usually save up about 180 res then do one all out attack on thier hive with about 2 GLs, and 3 HMGs - all with Jetpacks.
This is usually done quickly - and it is the standard HMG/JP rush that everyone complains about - hence why I only use it when I think the must be won (ie - a match)
For fun games it is always fun to try to mess around with TFs and Phase Gates then tech up.
LOL!!!
now concentrate your efforts on a real strategy <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
as for me....i like to make it up as i go along...depends on the aliens gameplay as well
I did that in my first comming match and the aliens couldn't get outta their hive with 4 ip's that's mined till hell
Armor 1 shoudl always come before any gun upgrade. Any early weapon upgrades mean absolutely nothing. Ticks me off that I get no armor for most of the game because the comm wants level 2 guns right away which I don't really need...
i avoid that forum because of posts shuch as these..
if i had one of those images which had some handicapped person on saying BEST THREAD EVER! then i would use it at this precise moment
