I love the audio cues! MP looks pretty entertaining to me.

I have to admit, I was a little hesitant about the multiplayer when I saw the IGN special about the game. However, I think that now that I have seen the game played by the actual gamers, I'm much happier with the results. The xenos play a lot better when you actually get someone to play it competently, such as in these vids. I overall had a very enjoyable time watching these matches and I now have renewed confidence.  ;D

The thing is - some mechanics are a bit different in others modes, namely Escape and Survivor, where the Marines are much tougher (they got Armor just like in SP), and the Aliens can't use one hit kill mechanics such as Fatalities. So in these modes, Aliens have a much harder time getting kills and need to work together and attack in swarms a lot more. Marines must also be downed first before Aliens can finish them off, and they can get revived quite quickly.
So it would make sense some players would rather play TDM and Extermination more, as player health is a bit more balanced there.

Hey there's nothing wrong with a little TDM it get the blood flowing. That's mostly all I play, never was a huge objective based mode fan. Except this game looks really fun so I'm gonna play everything.

The third person is so pathetic that almost no one is using the wallwalk.
So predictable...

Everyone is on tdm...I think the most famous mode, survivor will not have enough players.As well as escape..Argh!

I don't know why anyone is surprised by this. It's exactly what happened to AVP 2010. And the situations are pretty much exactly the same.

No dedicated server.
Very few maps for the special game modes.
The inclusion of very bog-standard game modes which most of the community is going to flock to.


Alien games need to actually shed the TDM experience and focus strictly on the special modes that would set it apart from other MP games. It makes sense to a degree in AVP to have a TDM or DM mode, because the pace is going to work with that. You've got two species that have a series of long range weapons, and two that have high amounts of agility. It makes sense. For the authentic experience thougH i think DM and TDM need to be purposely excluded from the package deal. Instead:
Escape, Survivor, Horde(Bug Hunt), Rescue.

I seem to recall a vast number of people in AvP2010 barely used wallwalk as well. Only the skilled players seemed to want anything to do with it.

You need one or two skilled xeno players to rock the whole match anyway.

ACM wallwalk mechanics are much more glitchy and clunky than AvP2010, so that really doesn't help, actually. Surface transition isn't as fluid, some surfaces you can't latch onto, controls getting reversed depending on how the camera positions itself... lots of shit that makes it a pain to actually move the way you intend to, and since the slightest error is quite unforgiving when playing as an alien, it quickly becomes frustrating.
So I'd understand some would rather just avoir wallwalking althogether.
