Aliens vs. Predator

[SATAn]

I played the demo and hated it and thought it looked like crap. I told science, then he told me to pay attention because it's only released in DX9 for the demo and it will look tits as fuck when its out in DX11. I then said I didnt really have fun, he reminded me that's because the demo only has death match, and told me it's because I played as predator, and I didnt play with anyone I know.

So I gave it another chance, I played with Science, Lenin, Pony, Grassman and someone else that I can't remember at the moment and ended up having a blast, so much fun that I've been playing it a lot the last 2 days, and now I ended up pre-ordering it. Can't wait to play team deathmatch with phlorph amigos.

Damn skippy the game is a blast.
Predator is boring and no fun, Alien is totally where it's at.

[Grassman7z7]

I can hold my own surprisingly well as Marine. No one seems to think that Marines can block and counter. Makes it too easy.

I'd buy it, but I'm far too poor right now.

[SATAn]

people have figured out how to play predator well and have been dominating games now. I finally figured out how to use the additional weapons

[Grassman7z7]

We did play that match where the Predator schooled us with the disk.

How's the campaign mode? Is there three campaigns?

[SATAn]

From what I've seen you get to play a campaign for all 3, I remember it saying the marines campaign is very claustrophobic, don't remember what they said about the others. Multiplayer is what has me sold though haha.

[Grassman7z7]

A campaign for each race. If it is anything like the previous game (Same team working on it) then they will be very good.

I was quite scared (And young) when I played the Marine campaign.

[Milesprower]

So, was playing a little bit of AvP yesterday, I don't see what's so hard about killing Predators. They're a joke to kill if you actually use the abilities the Alien is given, and don't just run in all kamikaze like.

[SATAn]

even when running full speed across the ceiling the fucking cunts would laser or disc me instantly, dude was hax or played too much because he was like 13 points ahead of everyone 3/4 in the game

[Milesprower]

You should have seen me play with Lenin. There was some predator in the game, first two rounds I got stuck as marine, and he was all like, AMFG I R SO GOOD AT PREDATOR. Then I got alien third round, and beat him by 4 points. He shut up real fast after that.

[Grassman7z7]

Sheriff, I hate you.
Now I too own AvP.

Any of you playing the UaW game that you got too? I'll likely play it some.

Also, this. (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/dedicated-servers-for-aliens-vs-predator_9)
Any ideas, anyone? I've heard a lot of things going for and against this... so I can't be sure.
But I think Phlorph could do good with one. (http://kotaku.com/5410035/rebellion-vows-dedicated-servers-for-alien-vs-predator)

[Grassman7z7]

Holy Balls is AvP fun.

[sputgop]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I wish my computer was working!

[SATAn]

its so damn fun! got kind of hard to get a ranked match late in the night though

[SheriffPony]

So much fun! I can't wait for all of us to play again. Maybe this time we'll get marines. Either way, I love when we're all on a team and it's us 6 vs 3 vs 3. Hilarious.

[Grassman7z7]

We just plow right through them when we are all on a team. It was close, when the scores were Thirty Five to Eleven.

One match of not-Deathmatch was more fun than all the time I spent on the Demo. I don't know why they would ever pick DM for the Demo...

[Your_Typical_Mental]

I think I was playing a different game the other night because I couldn't figure out AVP at all.

[SheriffPony]

It's pretty awesome, mental. Here's how it breaks down:

Predators: right click or disc to win.

Aliens: Wall tail to win. Alien gang-bang to win.

Predators and Aliens: Press E to do the 2010 equivalent of tea bagging your opponent.

Marines: Holy shit balls it's fun as hell. There's a blip on my radar, where is it? Oh shit, it's coming right for me i'm dead. Most intense experience ever!

Don't forget the part where both you and the marine you are playing have a persistent BONERSTORM.

[Your_Typical_Mental]

Call me cynical but that strikes me as derivative. I might be wrong I've never watched the movies but if each species has only one or two strategies isn't that limiting the multiplaying experience?

[Milesprower]

He's being sarcastic.

In reality, it should just say...

1. Play Mixed Species Team Death Match
2. Pick Predator and only use the Razor Disc
3. ??????
4. Profit!

[Laggy]

Do you guys think that a AMD Athlon 2.8 GHz processor can handle AvP?

[Milesprower]

Dual core or non?
If non, no.
If yes, barely.

[Laggy]

It's dual core, but whatever I don't feel like playing a game and barely being able to play it. Thanks Science.

[Grassman7z7]

I just spent hours messing with the WH40k Dawn of War Intro to change the background of the Menu screen to it.

Looks so dang cool.

The .bik file. (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZMHNJDUQ)

Download that, and replace your background video with it.

STEAM->Steamapps->Common->AvP->FMV->FrontEnd->facehuger.bik
That is the menu video. Rename it to facehuggerbak.bik
Then add the new facehugger.bik

Boot and enjoy!

[Grassman7z7]

Hate to Double-Post, but DEDICATED SERVERS ARE UP! (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1162039)

Plus some all around good updates.
This makes me very happy. Maybe we won't have to wait around for 20 minutes between every match.

[SATAn]

for sure! I can't wait to get to playin tonight.

[Grassman7z7]

I've got a paper to write, but I'll try to play a game or two.
At least this will hold us off until the Just Cause 2 Demo!

Just tried them out. Seems to be working rather well.
Of course, you have the usual slew of whiners.
