Enjoyed a game of this mode the other night. Found it to be a very good experience. 7 marines against one alien, constantly watching other peoples backs and hearing the pings from all motion trackers. Got pretty intense once 2 or 3 of the marines died and became aliens.

Dedicated servers will make multiplayer so much better as you dont have to wait to get into a game.

There is only one problem with infestation. As soon as more than 50% of the marines become aliens, they just suicide rush everyone who's left. The first few minutes when it's just one alien who has to be stealthy is nerve wracking at times.

I have to admit though, I HATE it when i'm picked to be the alien first.

I LOVE it, I just get to a dark spot and don't move. And wait for my prey to come to me. :D

First time I played that mode I was the first Alien and found it a challenge cos all the marines moved to the same spot and stood back to back.

Once I killed a marine things only got better cos even with 2 it was still just as hard but more frantic.

Love biting a marines face while another alien is keeping the others busy.

PC patch 2 release notes - 1st March 2010
We’ve been hard at work listening to and addressing your concerns and are pleased to announce that Monday will see the release of an update to Aliens vs Predator, see below for detail on what will be included.

We will also have news on an additional feature we know many of you have been waiting for which is now ready for a closed Beta test!

Please remember and check the revised Readme file when the update becomes available for additional information on the following.

General
- Stability improvements to address rare and infrequent hangs
- Implemented a workaround for missing audio issues with certain hardware (SoundBlaster X-Fi, Realtek onboard, etc.)
- Fixed save games being lost or corrupted if connection to Steam is lost or if user switches to offline play

Multiplayer
- Fixed XP being incorrectly affected by offline play (though only in the local stats; this will be corrected next time you connect to multiplayer)
- Fixed other players sometimes appearing to have the wrong weapon or continuing to fire indefinitely after dying
- Fixed rare issue where players would be temporarily invisible
- Fixed some selection of servers and players in menus sometimes being incorrect

glad they're listening, the "indefinite shooting" bit... i thought that was part of the game lol... i was getting owned by a dead marine as the gun kept shooting. Has anyone also seen the Aliens fitting after they die? they go mental after you kill them, is that a part of the game too? :confused:
 
does look good, but when they start fitting up the wall, it looked kinda whacked... i was killed by an alien while watching this peculiar behaviour in multiplayer... :D
 
i think it does, i just assumed it did as it kept firing...

Has anyone experienced missing textures in this game? sometimes i just see the sky, and it all messes up...
 
Completed the alien missions last night. Pretty balls to be honest. Half the length of the Marine/Predator missions. I think Rebellion got bored.


**Spoiler**

At the end number 6 is captured when the queen melts and he has a fit. He is then captured and taken aboard the ship. Are we meant to believe that number 6 then becomes a queen?? That's what I took from the final video sequence. It just seemed really odd!

**End Spoiler**


Looking forward to trying MP now but am reluctant due to the lack of dedi support which seems to be taking its frickin sweet time to arrive...*glares at rebellion*

Yea it becomes a queen which is part of the natural life cycle of the alien. The alien in the first film would have become one as well.

Hopefully get some DLC as a combat android sent into that ship to wipe out the infestation.
 
IIRC the alien queen emits some chemicals when alive to stop all other aliens becoming one. But when she dies one of the other aliens takes her place.

Do aliens have genders? I think we should call it a Keen, or a Quing, or something? :D
