Why the FUCK does it always take so fucking long to spawn...
« on: January 26, 2007, 12:58:08 am »
When base is under attack? It really takes the fucking piss - exactly when you need to spawn most, you don't friggin spawn!!

Also, the game is totally unbalanced.
S1 Human ( S1 Alien
S2 Human ) S2 Alien
S3 Human = S3 Alien
Imagine the brackets are greater than/less than symbols, your board bugs out to fuck if I use them.


I know you could say they balance each other out but that's bollocks. I think it's the reason humans always camp extreme until S3, which is another very fucking annoying part of the game. :S

Less spawns = more time. People don't know this, but if someone is on top of a spawn, you can't spawn from it.

This and

1. Base under attack = lot of humans probably died = spawns get saturated due to spawncooldown time.
2. If reactor went down the spawn cooldown time takes even longer due to no power.
I’m busy. I’ll ignore you later.

Aliens dont get the same problem since Eggs spit them out of the way and you cant just run over them like a Telenode and block it.

Since some of you seem uninformed yes you can block alien spawns.  If you are a human he smartest thing you can do is jump onto of one spawn (BLOCKING IT) and then kill the other spawns from onto that egg.  Also if an alien lags out over over or under a spawn the egg gets blocked and glitched.

Actually, the presence of power/overmind does not affect the rate of spawning.
10 seconds, constant rate, both teams.
The presence of power/overmind probably SHOULD affect it, but thats just me.

If people wouldn't feed, spawning wouldn't be an issue.

You try not too feed when you've got s3 aliens vs s1 humans. (We humans won that game in the end)

Ok, I think he's got the point by now.
urphy's rules of combat
8 ) Teamwork is essential; it gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.
18 ) Make it too tough for the enemy to get in and you can't get out.
