Quoted from vani

Marines dominate this game on pubs, there’s no reason not to go marine. Ive seen really good skulks and “assassins” or whatever they’re called, but the amount of skill you need for marine in comparison to alien and how valuable you are to your team is unbalanced.

edit typo

Launch day stats seem to disagree http://www.unknownworlds.com/images/news/PostLaunch1/WinLoss.jpg . They have been keeping stats on all of their released version to try and ensure that it is balanced. It is harder to play aliens but when you get used to it, it’s fun.

Quoted from Uberhomer

That steam group is still invite only, any chance to get an invite? Would love to play together with some people.

I tried making the group private and then public again but it didn’t work. Are you logged in to steam in your browser as i’ve sent the link to people in steam and they have been able to join. I know it’s a pain but try searching for the group in steam

Buckled and bought up last night. Seems I’m still as rubbish as ever as alien and the majority want to play marines. Good fun though.

Ugh, bad commanders ruin it so much.

“we dont need exos vs onos + heal fatties!”

Seems coolio. Definitely interested to see if there’s going to be decent competitive scene around it.

I know, there’s too many of these “lol i’m recording myself playing a new game like an idiot and then pasting captions all over the screen” videos on youtube nowadays, but this one made me chuckle :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZdY_M9n24c&hd=1

There’s a few annoying things, but it’s not that bad.
-Filled with cunts that didn’t play the prequel/people that dont know wtf to do..
-FPS.. Fucking hell, the drops I have

Else than that, seems pretty cool. Hopefully there’s gonna be competitive play in the near future :)

I have the same specs. 110-120 fps with nothing happening and nothing around. 70-90 normal situation. 50ish heavy combat.

I was being a bit generous earlier; saw fps drop as low as 30(gasp) the other day when our base was being stomped by hungry aliens.
But most of the time it stays at least above 60 and averages 80ish? However, fps drops really affect jetpacking in a hive when you’re trying to dodge aliens while shooting stuff. Thinking this will become one of those modern games that end up looking like shit because of the need to squeeze every last frame with fps configs and such.

Yeah, shotgun + jetpack + loads of aliens in a base = so hard to play.

Far too much fun D: Loving the aliens

I have similar specs to you (3570k, gtx 670) and my drops always seem to come about when there is a lot of particle effects on screen. Probably something to do with them using LUA for a lot of code.

I’ve gone down to 25~fps when there’s tons of crags + grenades going off. Grenades really seem to fuck me over.

Anyone forming teams or something? Might be interested in playing comp

Yeah. Shotty+Jet is sick, such a shame I get drops all the way down to ~20fps in heavy combat.. Kinda hard to aim with that shit.
Yet, I like the game. I’m assuming they’ll be optimizing it better in the near future, but who knows. Maybe it’s just my pc that’s built of weed being inable to properly run it in combat..

Was thinking the same thing, definitely interested.

I don’t know about an actual team but I’m probably up for playing some matches if asked, although I’m not really available until next week.
I suggest you find someone who knows how to and wants to comm, rest of the team doesn’t matter if the opponent is equally scrubby.
