Antag survivor is banned.

I asked about it in deadchat and was told Apop himself said antag survivor was banned until further notice; I think it was Snype who said it? Don't remember, tbh.

So basically all you can do is hide in a base till you get killed by a T2 / T3.

An interesting method of survival Ryan/Kneez, but it ain't gonna get you far enough, you have a shotgun that you ain't gonna want to hold forever. If you're ever feeling ballsy you can head north of the river and get the 2nd Shotgun, as well as bullet-proof vest (Bullet-Proof vest is key to being a badass survivor) it allows for the extra "Suit" slot, which is so damn useful, it prevents you from having to carry your shotgun around or what ever weapon you're rolling with, you can also grab the RDS at the little area with a bunch of useless shit like grenades north west of the river. I usually just remove all the slugs from the 2nd shotgun if I already have a KSG (4 more slugs), then you can take Ryan's advice and grab the metal, but going north as well as grabbing building materials is extremely ballsy because the Xeno-Meta is real....

I grab the vest from IA building or the armor from the sec locker and I get the fireaxe, I have survived a good few times just running around and once marines land youre pretty much set cause the xenos arent looking for survivors at that point.

Just break in nexus armory,get the guns and C4,get in secure storage and build a coffin there,and you will probably be the last human alive when Sully gets boarded.
I play Sydney 'Lilly' Wood, the totally not depressed doctor, And the marine Dylan Bell, that probably joined the USCM by accident.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions related to research.

Can't xenos see you if the barricade is blocked by LOS? Even better to get a body bag from medical and lay in it first.

> hiding

most boring way to play survivor ever, especially with the recent buff to survivors that gives you 50 seconds until T1's come, and 3 mins 20 seconds until T2's come.

You can OBLITERATE T1's and T2's easily with the right guns, location, and if you have xeno friends. Only when xenos start to get T3's does it get difficult to survive but even then you can handle it if you get the other survivors to team up with you.

This is rare as fuck, though. Good luck getting survivors who realize that hiding then getting rescued is the most awful and boring way to play survivor.

I mean, it's survival of the fittest and the only way you're gonna fit in this world is to hide because you ain't ready with the man power nor fire power.

> hide for up to 30 + minutes
> get rescued
> do nothing as most people ignore you and you lost any chance of interesting dialogue with fellow survivors or being a crazy survivor hostile to marines

> fun gameplay

I used to murder the monkeys to stop the Alien expansion. Admins told me it was powergaming.

Tried to go up into their new hive with a shotgun. Admins told me it was Powergaming.

If you try and actively hunt the xenos in the compound, you will die.
The only thing you can do, is hide.
And if you can't be an antag survivor, literally nothing you can do.

It honestly depends on the way you do it. I've killed apes and lead a full survivor team to a hive for a brawl out and it was permitted because we were all heavy RPers and we didnt simply sprint across the map murdering things.


Hell, I even made a room full of monkeys and threatened to kill them all once when aliens surrounded my sealed off fort. Queen came down and I traded my life for the apes. Try something different, you will be surprised.

I try to RP and actually do RP, but most of the time my survivor mates are lost or dead. I'm talking alone.

Look, you either die 5 or 10 minutes in the game... or wait in a coffin or behind barricade and be a vagina, and get to go up, fight the aliens when they come up when you got a actual set of armor and smoke them with a tactical. Best round ever
