P.S. I Like Canada and the Canadians I know aren't half-bad (my own daddy for example)

We're basically a slightly less obese, rude, and warm U.S. :D And our politicians do nothing instead of doing the wrong things


=D

America would like to think that he's wearing Canada like some fancy hat. What he doesn't realise is that Canada is a rhino. A calm and friendly rhino that likes to sit on people's heads.

The best idea to come out of any of these adv. dretch threads is the dretch that can spit trapper blobs.

Oooh nice. lol.

That probably would work. not that i'd say YES to it. i'd rather have it all kept how it was. if anything, the adv. dretch should be just 10 more HP or something...  :P

adv. dretches need to shout fier, as well as having spider sense and spider web abilities, but we can't call them spider abilities because they are aliens and clearly not spiders. Instead we will call them SUPERFLUOUS EVASION and SUPER SEMEN STICKY GOO. The adv. dretch will also only have 1 hp but 1000 units of armor that way if you get an emp blast you can knock out all the armor but if you shoot it, it will be invincible. Also, the adv. dretch should have a subterranean burrowing capabilites to pop out like trap door spiders. And finally adv. dretches should have thermo nuclear devices attached on their backs, that way when they die it'll kill everyone on the map and end the game.

Adv. Dretch?

Silly idea.

Adv. Tyrant = Beautiful

It would essential be a 2 tonne bomb that pretty much sits there until you press left mouse button.. killing everything, wiping the map clean, breaking your monitor and obliterating large portion of Canada.

Pros - fun to try out

Cons- Canada might not like it...

...

and yeah.. Adv. Dretch = Basilisk  :P

Go ahead, try it. You'll realise that not only do we have explosive firepower that noone knew we had, but we also won't hesitate to use them.

*American uses adv Tyrant*
*Nukes get launched towards every major american city*


:O An American using MY designs?!?

Those American DASTARDS!!

What about an adv. dretch with 25 hp, same size, brighter color, cost 1 evo, a pounce like goons but not doing any special damage, and exploding at death like the om? :D

If there is an adv.dretch, it needs a special ability--adv. basi gets gas, adv. mara gets zap, adv. goon gets snipe, adv. granger gets attacks--in addition to possibly being made bigger and/or getting more hp.

What amuses me is how he thinks light armor is equal to 10 hitpoints.


let me quote the manual:
"Light Armour grants the wearer improved defense to the torso and leg areas."

so unless he spent the last ten months playing or readed the numbers on the source, there's not much to amuse anyone here

Yes, so headbites and swings make it reduntant therefore... I would consider it equal, if not slightly superior to +10hp on a dretch.

What a dretch really needs is some form of speed boost or armor penetration... in my opinion.

on the advanced dreatch thing. What about some lame thing, like the spit from the builder, that slows human?

It's not overpower, and can be used efectively for a nice strategic attack

Imo, a dretch that spits trapper acid would be an assload of over-powered if the target human wasnt wearing a bsuit/helmet. Talk about free kills. I think dretches are as good as its going to get for low-tier aliens.

Right. Trapping dretchen = aliens win. Every game. Ever. EVAR!
I think this will be just too powerful.

The adv dretch should be an alien that can wallclimb on humans,that way it can stick to a hummie with it noticing and go in the hummie base,bad thing is that it will only see the FOV of a alien sticking to a human back and it wont see what is behind it so a human at the back of the human who has a alien sticking on his back could shoot the adv dretch,and it should have 60 hp and you need to clikc the mouse to bite.

Advance Granger should shoot the undamageing, sticky trapper stuff, not this lightly damaging spittle.
Would both make Advanced Granger more useful, as well as cutting down on attack grangers and encouraging teamwork.

It would severely increase the number of attack grangers since the spit would actually do something.

I always thought in Balistik as Adv. Dretch. Tho I never use Balistik at all myself :P TBH, I always think that Adv. Ballistik should be standard Ballistik and Adv. Ballistik should fly. Standard Ballistik is pretty useless, imo.

night vision dretch would be pointless as there are no pitch black map areas



the game is balanced


not pitch black. if you read in other posts there isn't really any shadow in the game hence no light or dark its all fake, also night vision would be something that can increase gamma levels maybe with a filter and shader applied over all with advanced drtech and and rifle No its a base unti to get you started why evolve into a dretch at S3 when all you hafto do is wait and get some points awarded to you and evolve BUT i think ppl who start as a dretch at S3 should be aworded 1 point if they have 0 points and humans should get 200 credits at S3 if they haave no credits

How many grangers would attack turrets for 1 minute per turret kill?
Also, attacking would actually prevent the humans from leaving the base, since they can't move, and thus encouraging camping and hindering the Alien's efforts to attack the human base.

Why adv dretch we should make an alien that has a thing like a hive attached to its back so it can deploy it at hummies or make its back like a hovel for multiple dretches say 6 dretches so it can release the dretches or if the dretches want to come out bu itself without getting shot by a human except the carrier takes the damage not the dretche,s.It should have primamry attack releasing dretches and secondary attack is a mix of basi swipe+adv basi gas.Give it 250 hp available at s3.
