Barricades have their uses. Try sticking a barricade at the hall entrance right beside that tube in ATCS, keeps hummies out till they're S2 and only grangers in when aliens are S1. Barricades are good for hiding acids behind, they're also a good distraction for the newbs who'll waste ammo on a random barricade in a corner somewhere.

Do not build your base to stop newbs. Build it to stop pro players!
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.

My ATCS 'hallicade' keeps everyone out when it has some alien backup.

The best alien base barricade is a trapped human. :)

This is funny because it is true.
