How do the xenos "get you"?

Post by ThePiachu » 23 Apr 2018, 09:01

As a Marine, what xeno tricks, strategies or moves get you? What are the things you dread encountering from the aliens?

Typically it's because I'm injured and falling back or because I'm on the front and get tackled/spit and dragged off while my fellow soldiers are unwilling/unable to do anything. Otherwise, queen screech.

Watching RNG Jesus bless a boilers gas, putting me insta crit.

But in all seriousness its usually FF that kills me, not a Queen's Screech or slashing.

Xeno tricks? FF does all the work.

Yesterday I was a sniper spec, got FFed by a PFC pointblank when he was trying to... slash weeds, ruptured lungs and shit 5 mins in. Needless to say I spent half the game on almayer. Then when I got d own I was ordered to go to engineering just to get screeched by queen the second I stepped a foot there and killed. Somehow I got revived but the salt.

I was the PFC that round. It was one of my first real rounds after coming back for a while and I didn't entirely understand the new firearms update or the safety mechanism. Sorry about that shit, man.

EDIT: after coming back after a long while*

Being in a crowded area is a good cause of marine deaths. I honestly won't go in on an assault if it involves 20 marines going through a two wide tube, it's not that Xenos have a huge advantage, but that FF increases tenfold. Other than that, sticky resin (it can help), neuro toxin, screeches, depression, and boiler gas that cuts off retreat.
