Can we ever do a UPP vs USMC game?

Post by RiskySikh » 02 Dec 2017, 18:30

We usually play against Xenomorphs, but it would be interesting playing against another HUman Faction. I would like to play a game where its USMC against UPP or CLF. I heard that people played it before, but we should play it again.

See, it's ok, if you don't mind dying RAPIDLY, and never getting revived.

Ayy's main form of ranged attacks is acid. Human's main form of attack is rapid-fire gunfire.

A spitter has enough time to shoot at you twice. You take 30-40 points burn. No biggie, one pill can fix that.
In that time, a human can send near 10 rounds downrange. Assuming 4-6 hit, you'll likely be in deep crit, with a broken chest, internal bleeding, and more broken bones wherever more than one round hit you. Also, if you die, and an assault rifle spray hits your corpse, doing more damage, I probably ain't gonna bother fixing you up.

As medic, I HATE the gamemode.
As anyone else, if your idea of fun consists of sitting at a barricade until you take one AP round to your anywhere, and bleeding to death while in paincrit from the broken bone cause the medics are way overloaded, go for it.

I would love if we had a gamemode where it was say, The UPP, or terrorists, or the Iron bears vs Marines. We don't ALWAYS have to fight Xenomorphs. The game is called COLONIAL MARINES not "Aliens" so why not have some variety and create some permanent scenario/gamemodes.

We do this plenty, mostly on weekends, in fact, something akin to this is going on as I type.

I agree. And if it was 1v1 or 1v2, it'd work.


The trouble is, crossfire and burstfire. This is basically FF, the gamemode.

Not saying it can't be enjoyable, but for like 30 min max.

Most Marines vs human antags ends up in blind fire and darkness shotgunning.

Bad enough getting my arm shot off with AP by my own team mates. It can be fun i did enjoy gunning people down once with an anti tank rifle as they fled across lv river.

The other time was slowly bleeding to death with the other 40 upp with our only remaining medic also in pain crit none of us survived.
Mainly play - SL , SG , SO
