To all the kids complaining about the aliens/ marines

if your a marine work togethor and learn how to block aim and use your motion sensor

if ur the alien and your getting disoriented slow down the sensitivity and move a little slower, you get used to it but.... if your constantly changing walls and jumping your making it harder on yourself. Pick a surface (either floor, ceiling, left, or right wall) and stay on it.....

I've gotten in first with every class btw

very disorienting, it can make me feel sick sometimes, one of the games flaws and unfortunatly I dont think it's possible to get used to that

didnt really like it personally, think ill be sticking with BF:BC2chaoscougar1

everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I personally was not impressed by the bad company 2 demo

I think the demo sucks, and I think this game is going to suck.

I base this opinion on the soul fact that I could only seem to be a marine and got raped over and over again by one hit kills.

You do realize that you can switch your class in the lobby don't you?

Not to mention holding lb and rb at the same time blocks.

And if the kills are from behind that's what the motion sensor is for.

So the aliens vs predator multiplayer demo launched today which includes a 8 personfree for all game type one map and all three classes playable. NOTE: The full game will have 18 person multiplayer.

To start off I will mention that the game is decently balanced. The predator is overpowered but their can only be two per free for all match. Each classes vision and mobility help to balance it out. Also I dont really like the free for all mode because it limits the advantages of being a certain class (basically I mean that when your fighting other aliens breaking the lights is useless and little things like that.

Aliens

The Aliens are extremely fast, can climb any surface, and can see at a certain light level (that hardly ever changes) making it easy for players to navigate the map (they can also see the outlines of opponets through floors and walls). They have two attacks: a light and a powerful attack as well as multiple trophy kills. Like every class they can also break the lights in the game making it nearly impossible for the marines to see (extremely useful). The aliens do suffer from some setbacks though, climing on the walls can become extremely disorienting and can get you killed alot. Also they arent very powerful so in 1 on 1 situations they tend to lose to the other classes. When the aliens work togethor they are extremely dangerous making the alien class optimum for team based games.

The Marines

In free for all they are underpowered. They have bulky metal armor so they move slow aside from sprinting and their flashlight is very dim making it difficult to see (especially if the aliens and preds bust out the lights). Their only advantages are their block move which causes aliens and predators to stumble back and their motion tracker which at times is difficult to use. Another major disadvantage is that they cant zoom in unless you have the sniper so they only are good for medium range. However when I played with my friends we worked togethor and had a lot more success (not to mention it was extremely fun working as a squad and then having one of your mates get shredded). Overall the marines are by far the scariest class to use ( especially when its really dark and the aliens are on the ceiling rushing at you). They are also in my opinion the worst pick for free for all unless you have friends willing to work with you.

The Predator

The predator is a bit overpowered but rebellion balanced this out by allowing only 2 predators per free for all match (trust me any more would ruin it). They also added the vision modes which can be useful but can also be deadly. For example if you are in the alien vision mode it's difficult to see marines and vice versa, and if you are in the regular vision mode it can plainly be difficult to see. The predator is the second fastest species and has a good jupming distance but the jump is limited because you have to aim it and can only go a certain range, also it takes time for the animation. The predator also has the most powerful weapons by far (some are one hit kills) but it also has the slowest attacks. The predator is the best free for all choice simply because its power.

All and all the game is pretty fun and I will be buying it. I dont really like the free for all mode ( I just dont like having all 3 classes on the same map) but I think the 2 sided team death match (aliens vs marins), the survival mode, the predator hunt mode, and the infestation mode will be alot of fun. It's a recomended download, just try not to get to nausious running on all those walls.

NOTE: Each class (marines, predators, aliens) have unlockable multiplayer skins which I am assuming you either get from the SP or from ranking up.

UPDATE: Haha if your the alien sneak up on a marine (above him) when they have their back to you and press Y to hiss. When I did it I was looking through one of the holes at a guy running through a doorway below me and it mustve scared him because he turned around spraying even though I wasent even there.
