Title: Aliens vs Humans
Post by: dude11235 on December 02, 2006, 11:09:21 pm
Topic. Which one do you think is better?

I think that they are matched, because alien builders ROCK! I don't care what you say I hate it when I have to run around the base repairing buildings as a human...but human defenses are awesome (compared to alien defences). As far as upgrades and weapons go I think it's pretty matched, because humans have to rely on teamwork a bit more than aliens, for instance I've seen a tyrant take down two b-suiters alone; and I've taken down three spammers clogging a hallway alone (I was a dretch).

Anyway I just wanted to know what side you prefer.

At this time I suppose I prefer human.  I've really gotten on a build and then rush with painsaw kick lately.

I prefer the alien team.

They have more flexability in base design, and are generally more interesting to play as.

I like the movement tricks too.

i doesntreally matter too much, if there is no one i know on the server, i don't care. if i know people on the server, i like to be on their team though.

I prefer humans. I like to consider myself really accurate with a rifle. It's pretty easy to kill 3-4 dretches and then go get myself a las gun, light armor, and a battery pack. Then when we get S2, those aliens better run away from my pulse. Pulse rifle just flat out owns if you know how to use it. I rarely use a battlesuit anymore since I need the extra ammo and radar for my pulse.  :D

Depends.

Starting at the start of a game, Aliens or Human.
Joining an allready-in-progress game, Human.

Well, I like the alienteam somewhat more, it's just more interesting to play, although I usually just wack "auto select" and look what happens.

I used to play almost exclusively human, but now i've turned to favor alien instead.  I prefer camping a base than being locked inside  :P

mara jumping is a minigame in itself, as well.

I prefer to be in control of the camping so I usually go humans. That way I don't have to wait for anyone else to grow some balls.

Aliens are more fun to play though imho.

I HATE CAMPING!
I get so bored when I camp... that's why I hate it when aliens goes Tyrant and we have to defend our base for sooo long.
For aliens, it's so hard to get evolve points when you join the game and both team is S3... so I usually go to humans when I join late.

Get a booster.
Poison then, and run away. Repeatedly.
You can get lots of evo's when other people kill them.

Why are there fewer people who say both than aliens or humans, yet there are the same number who say aliens as humans?

Some people like to play aliens and some humans (usually), that's why they have chosen to vote for other race not both. I know people who don't like playing humans at all, for reference.

I go for aliens anytime. =) It's just so much fun rushing around in roofs trying to avoid being shot down by some random weapon, having only 25 hp! Gets the adrenalin pumping.
I do, however, like to saw dretches into chopped... dretches with a painsaw once in a while as well... =)

You haven't seen noobs until that happens with 3 battlesuits. Pity you can't get more than 9 evos from it :(

I have let myself be killed by a dretch when I was wearing a B-suit.  The armory was down and no one had a kit so I had to die to respawn with a kit.

Am I a total noob and don't know how to commit suicide by myself in this game?  What am I missing?  Most games you can suicide through a menu choice, but I have not found that in Trem.

go to console and type /kill and you will die in 20 sec
or you can just jump off the ledge
