I agree to all of it apart from the first one with extra health i also think humans need a special ability of some sort like a pack or somthing that you buy from the amory that helps the player in some way like speed tokens damage token and so on and those increase there speed or damage ever so slightly and your aloud only one per player and they all cost 50 credits

Hmm, a pack of some sort, that helps the player?

What could there be?

OH! I KNOW! A JETpack!
OR A BATTPACK!

humans allready work together as much as could hope to in public games.
my suggestion is to give the medkit-user a boost of speed or something, if used above 100 hp, so it would work like the stimpack in starcraft.
(without faster firing rate and health loss.

as for encouraging teamwork in public games: there are alotta retards i r eally would rather have solo, so i wouldnt have to bother with em.

How about have a steriod pack that is 50 creds. You buy it and it lets you run at super speed, but doesnt stop till your stamina is all the way down, and stamina doesnt recharge when it is on.

You are talking to the guy who hunts Tyrants with a battery-pack and a lasgun.
Chain-suits are for people who can't aim.

Actually, battle suits + chaingun are for people who are not uber l33t, or for people who are being raided by multiple heavies.

Is that some Alien conspiration to give worthless human advice on the forum? Don't listen to them! BS + chaingun IS the best tool to hunt and kill any alien bigger than a basilisk.

Well, you do have to learn how to aim if you want to kill a mara with less bullets than a Tyrant but it still is a very good way to do it ;)

I think trem is really balanced because humans that aren't stupid will win the main problem is that most new people (and even old) will go to the human side because it's "easier" that is why aliens always win.

Yea, but I pick it for 3 reasons:

1. Lasgun and battery-pack is much cheaper.
250+70+90+100=510
400+400=800

2. Helmet gives you radar.

3. Can buy a lasgun at s1 or s2 without a decrease in aim.

The "accuracy" malus is really nothing to worry about you. And it is certainly nothing that matters at all at very close range. Humans should select their weapons for close range fighting because honestly, you won't have often aliens hanging around far away in a big open room for you to snipe with the lasgun :)

unless you have less than 10 ping, in which case it takes out dretches,basilisks and grangers with similar ease.

(Hey, I'm only a week late.)
I thought it would be fun to make everyone turn at the same time. It one person turns, everyone turns. It would require lots of teamwork and would be hella funny.

Interesting suggestion.  One problem that would likely happen is that it won't actually get humans to camp less, only that a human that strays 10 feet out of the base has enough health to get back before dying (as opposed to the dretch getting that second bite in before he gets away).  As you said, it helps pros last longer out of the base.  I just don't see this getting noobs to leave.

It would also make joining as an alien against s3 humans really difficult.

Tranq saw from Risujin's Balance Mod seems to be the simplest way to get at least pairs of humans working together, and gets them out of the base. It does little damage, but renders an alien incapable of running, though they can still turn.
