The Xenos were the focus since they were the ones who showed any sort of tactical strategies. Case in point...the smog, and also rampaging Crusher as the tank, keeping the xenos behind it safe and sound until they are ready to f**k shit up. Spitters on the high ground attacking the marines...

Yeah but I want I went in expecting something for the marines. I wish they had kept the squad features in the game though.  :-\

There are no multiplayer tactics in this game, like there are none for other games. Nobody ever bothers to do even the simplest things, like group up together and give over-arcing fields of fire... Sadly.

I know.  :-\

When they first announced the game they made it seem like there would be a big emphasis on squad play and teamwork. Kinda sad that they decided to drop it.

Multiplayer games: When you're surrounded by Leeroy Jenkins clones, everyone can hear you scream rage-quit.

According to my friend who played the game at Eurogamer, after wandering off and getting killed horribly a few times the marine players seemed to just naturally bunch together and work like a big unit instead of a bunch of lone wolves.

Same with the alien team. Gameplay that was designed to build tension and fear while naturally promoting teamwork.

That doesn't really promote team work. If anything not having that exact information would help push marine players closer together to avoid picking up rogue blips.

You want to make the marine team work closer together, and also avoid retarded alien bullsh*t? Simple. Very simple. Adopt the strategy of game mods like Front Line Force. Being close to your team mates grants you certain percs. (Better weapon accuracy, better movement speed.)

Keep it up. It's really clever, and not at all what most people are complaining about. Gearbox wants to say "we're giving you the authentic experience" and then they toss in a bunch of crap. Those two things are not compatible concepts.
