Hi, everybody! i have looked at this game for a bit but never got it till now and its a pretty kewl game :) good work. well i'll get to it. i got a few questions about this.
1. How do you switch to 3rd person view?
2. Is there a way to have AI/Bots?
3. Will/is there any vehicles? or does it even have vehicle support?
Thank You for your time.

1. You don't. I think there are commands, but they aren't allowed in game.
2. Good question.
3. No, and I don't really think it is intended or even needed.

Ouch no 3rd person and it's not allowed? thats the main reason i DL'd this game.. shouldnt show screens of 3rd person if its not allowed and AI/bots would be very nice o have along with vehicle support that would make for some very good mods.

The game is open source, nobody will stop you if you want to code it in... ;)

Third person view is considered cheating in a lot of fpses
Making ai/bots for the aliens will be very very very hard.
Vehicles? No thanks.

1: you don't
2: it doesn't
3: there arn't

you can use third person via /cg_thirdperson 1 but it requires cheat activation via /sv_cheats 1 which means you have to host your own game.
It is excellent for close combat aliens but is awful for aiming ranged.

It's not even very good close combat. Once you've gotten used to the ranges on the melee weapons (which really doesn't take long) the first person perspective is much better all around. Even for wallwalking it's really no better since it has no interpolation.
And in case you were wondering it's cheat protected because you could use it to look around corners and behind you.
