The Aliens aren't terrifying enough.
Think about this;
You as a lone Un-helmeted Marine on S2, patrolling near your base think you hear a strange noise and decide that the Dretch that made it will get to try out some 00' gage from your new Shotgun.
But wait you notice something small and grey in a opposite corner where you thought there was a dretch.
Oh No! You realize too late; Its the Dreaded Alien Brainsucker, leaping towards you already mere feet from your head.
Thwack! You feel the Alien Brainsucker already chewing through you skull.
If this were any other Alien you would already be dead... but you wern't so lucky this time.
You try and move your hands to tear this thing off your head, but its like you are paralyzed. You can't move!
Your vision slowly fades to black as you think you are passing out.
But in reality the Alien Brainsucker controls your body now.
Strengths:
It can shoot at your fellow marines with near imputy until they realize you are not quite Human anymore.
The Bad thing is that they can walk right into a Human base and wreak havoc.
But any weapons that the Marine was using at the time can be used.
Also the Ex-marine now counts as a member of the Alien team, thus any kills they make are under the Alien Controllers name.
Turrets DON'T pick up Mind Controlled marines unless a Defense Computer is installed. Teslas always do.
It costs only 1 Evolution point.
Weaknesses:
Good thing Alien Brainsuckers don't live that long once they take over a host. (They only last one minute, then both the host and parasite die)
Also the brainsucker is not that bright itself, It can't use a Construction Kit (either to build or deconstruct, its too complex).
It also can't use medkits (Its a brain
SUCKER not a brain Surgeon!).
The Alien Brainsucker can't control any Marines in Helmets or Battlesuits.
They only have as much health as your average Dretch.
Can't wallclimb.
Also the Brainsucker has a limited lifetime, if it does not take over a Marine in ONE MINUTE from spawning, it dies.
To top it all off the Brainsucker does not gain Evolution points from its kill(s)[/list]

Face Hugger = Ftw

smilar was suggesed already... search

Some one has been watching too much stargate, with the Goa'uld

I agree... this should be put into trem 1.2 as a new class... Instead, my view on the face hugger is...
Alien Name: Undecided
Alien Health: 100? (Maybe 75)
Alien Damage: Undecided, but should be a Damage Over Time Thing
How the Alien Kills & Takes Over: You basically are like a basalisk (Except you crawl like a snake, side to side with a basi tail. You jump at a human's head, and you latch on. Once on the human, you basically tear up his skull, and go inside of his mouth. First the human must be LESS than Full health. Then, you go onto his face, and if the human cannot point his gun at you (Your vision and everything will be so severe, it will be like basi gassing you, and all that at the same time) so you will be able to blast it off with 2 shots, because it is really weak when up front... (Its health drops to 15? when it latches on your face) Or... i mean a lot of ideas... but this is a basic UNFINISHED idea... like a super adv. basalisk

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO ITS ALIAN ALL OVER AGAIN
when they die does acid go everywear and does the alians come out of the host marines stomach

Have you played the game for more then a week? This would totally unbalance the game. Besides, it's not Trem style IMHO.

You would have thought having your skull torn apart would do at least 1 damage.

Any way you try adding a zombie-element, you will look like you are:
[list=a]- Imitating Halo
- Imitating Stargate
- Imitating HalfLife
- Imitating George A. Romero[/list:o]

Brainsuckers? Isn't that like that giant lump of alien in Star Troopers the first movie? Burst out of your chest... Aliens VS Predator? Face hugger...Dark Messiah Might And Magic+AVP?
LOL scary idea though. Goons chomping behind your back is scary enough.

it actually sounds cool, but it should be moving fast then if the lifetime is one minute.
Nading the humans would be funny.
