There's also this shiny new thing called a mag harness, slap a bayonnet on that and a gyro and congrats you're a pain in the ass until you burst, escape, or the aliens decide 'lol fuck you' and kill you. Bonus points if you have a smartgun instead, wreck the entire fucking hive.

Also protip: Chop your nest, not the wall or door first. Bitches can't nest you without a nest, and you can kill whatever comes into your 1x1 square of EAT MY DAMN KNIFE to re-build a nest at that point. Bonus points: Don't be a damn hive wrecking hero unless its something weak like a runner, drone, or hunter. You're worth much more RUNNING YOUR ASS OUT OF THE HIVE instead of tearing said hive up and dying. If you can escape, you're already competent enough to be a decent player in my book.
All of this would be true and doable if the aliens for some reason didn't make a cramped weeded and sticky resind nest where you have nowhere to maneuvar and will immediately get tackled usually with 1 shot by the queen anyway.

I'd love if it were a little bit harder for aliens to capture, but then the marines wouldn't be a robot. If you are subdued already it's totally unfair to pop out of the nest and kill yourself or xenos. You are barely alive, the thing inside you eats most parts of your organs leaving only what is neccessary for you to not die instantly. You shouldn't be more dangerous than ever. And nests should just accelerate the process, because when you are nested that's the most boring way to die ever.

I think what should be dealt with is how easy it is to get captured. If you get captured it kinda should be over for you.

Simply put the people who do that are cucks that don't understand that is literally the worst thing to do. They're also more than likely the people that think they have smartguns when they have an M4.

I'll start by removing the Xeno move penalty from pulling, they're stronger than the strongest human.
