I disagree with it having bad controls. I can dominate as an alien.
Yep, I've been playing multiplayer now. In one game I got 20 kills and 6 deaths as an alien soldier. I found that as an alien it's only a matter of using your brain. Also the spitter isn't as bad as I thought it'd be, I used it when doing the challenge in which you had to kill 10 enemies with acid spit, I got some 1 shot kills in there. I feel I need to understand the lurker more, especially if I need to pounce 3 enemies within 10 seconds. I've been a boiler once, may be ugly but poetic when it comes to damage. I still need to try out the Crusher, I've seen it done but I never seem to get the chance.
