Me. Add me. xuerebx

PC too.

I added you as a friend on Steam. I'll invite you to the group when you come on.

Thanks. I'm on.

I don't have a microphone so I can't speak. Besides, you don't want to hear me speak in English haha.

I assume there will be more players than just 8 in the final game right?

I'm pretty sure I've seen somewhere in a trailer or interview that it'd be a maximum of 18 players, but right now I have absolutely no idea where I saw that. Played the demo for the first time this afternoon, I svcked but it was awesome. I'll be sure to try blocking the grab attacks on my next game, could've saved my life dozens of times already ^_^

Had fun playing lads. ^_^

@ the above: I can't imagine what havoc there will be with 18 players in one game!

That was fun, didn't do badly for my first predator game, and I'm consistently the best alien, so I'm happy with that.

» Fri May 27, 2011 4:33 am

Yeah, that was a good couple of games. I still did best as the marine. I need to get used to the alien a bit more, wasn't doing great with it.

You actually were really good as a marine. Killed me a couple of times as a pred. In previous games, marines never got a chance to kill me when we're 1 vs 1 in front of each other, for some reason. Where's my weak spot??

You're good at predator, I kept getting killed before I could get to equipment though, it was annoying. It's always satisfying to get a stealth kill on a predator though.

Right in your face.

As long as you don't get a hit on me and stun me before I can do anything I'm usually able to pump you full of lead. I could have done even better that game if the marine's block button wasn't alt, changed it to shift after the game so that I'll be able to block more easily next time around which could be interesting.

Ah the face. <_<

I haven't tried a marine yet. Only played 5 games as a predator and 2 as an alien. The alien is good but I can't seem to leap onto someone when I'm on top of him (clinging to the ceiling).

Hit mouse 3 and e at the same time.

Oh. :mellow:

Didn't know mouse 3 can be used. :lol:

» Fri May 27, 2011 3:31 am

Yeah, I only found that out in the last game there when Dr D told me about it. Mouse 3 makes you drop down to the floor which is pretty handy if someone runs underneath you.

Yeah I just used it in a match. Came first with an alien.

It's easier to kill marines with an alien I think.

Just used a marine. I can only have a kill streak if I use that gun which you can aim with. Got a 6 kill streak with it. Otherwise, I svck hard.

» Fri May 27, 2011 6:49 am

I've completely mastered the predator, including how to use the cloak wisely, whenever you see a marine stand completely still, some people might see you, but I've tricked many people.

The shotgun works wonders on aliens/preds. Just gotta lure a pred into thinking hes sneaking up on you, then whirl around and shoot him in the face. Aliens get scary though. You'll be firing at one, then hes on the roof, then on the wall, then on the ground, then by then a 2nd alien is charging in from the side :wacko:

I think it's very, very stupid that there's no ADS feature. I mean that's a basic feature nowadays.

» Thu May 26, 2011 11:50 pm

It's not necessary at all in this game.

And ADS is?

» Fri May 27, 2011 12:48 pm

Aim Down Sights.

I played for about an hour earlier, and can't say that I found the game terribly fun. Granted, I wasn't that great at it and didn't know how to do some things, but it seemed fairly limited.

I'll probably give it another go later tonight or tomorrow.

Oh, and how do you activate cloaking on a Predator?

» Fri May 27, 2011 3:19 am

Press 'R'.

» Fri May 27, 2011 9:05 am

Press 'R'.

What does that do

» Fri May 27, 2011 12:54 am

Look at the previous post:

It's still dumb not to have it. Why NOT have it?
