AVP 1 Skirmish scores

[Private Hudson]

What is the highest points you've reached in skirmish without dieing? Mine is 9200, on Hadleys Hope. What I did was went into the vent and stood in a corner, the aliens rushed me and I just mowed them down, eventually, I ran out of ammo, and Boom, alien on top of me, eating me, it was a sad sight.

I don't know. But I can tell you this; I just finished the "Orbital" level as a marine on Director's cut. I will never play it again because my child must never hear such cursing again... She's 8 months old and I hope I haven't screwed up her childhood...

That is one tough level.

Oh yeah. That one took me ages. Did you take out the Xenoborg or run away?

Ran like hell. Both times. Also ran in the last part when you can dodge the predator and sprint through the hydroponics to the pod.
With two saves at my disposal I don't have the nerves to repeat same third of the map over and over. I tried a few times and wouldn't have a huge problem if the aliens didn't spawn like they had a planet of humans to multiply from.

Really, I HATE constant spawning. Ok, when the mission is to hold on and defend a position for a limited time I'm ok with it, but in AvP1 it seems as if it happens all the time.

Directors Cut has no saves...

The patch? Didn't it give saves?

It did. Eight (IIRC, I never actually played the easiest setting), four or two, depending on difficulty.

With no saves I wouldn't play the game on Directors Cut. Some levels are just impossible to play through with no errors. And you die FAST.

I beat all the missions + bonus ones with Marine and Pred on DC. I'd say about 2 of the marine missions on DC are extremely hard on DC with no saves allowed.

Orbital is the first level of the marine where you first encounter a Pred right? I hated that level, the Queen was easier!!

You don't only encounter one but TWO. And two alien mechs. I killed the first pred but the second is right at the end of the mission and with a save half a mission ago... I ran.

@AcidGlow: You've beaten all missions WITHOUT ANY SAVES?! Damn... You never patched the game?

[Private Hudson]

Yeah, thats the one, god damn Xenoborgs took me out everytime I'd peek out from hiding!!

I play it on AVPGE version not AVP. It has saves but only on the easier difficulties and 0 saves on Directors Cut. All my videos of me beating them on DC are in my youtube page.
