anyone here played aliens vs predator 2? wow when playing as a marine how hunted do you feel?  for the first objective i only saw evidence of a predator once its laser tracking beam thingy - but i never saw it so i did a hasty retreat but after that i never saw the thing again but i was shooting at anything that moved - but playing as the preator you imediatly feel like the hunter - its great

I usually play as the Alien, hide on the ceiling and in air ducts, wait for Mr. Predator to walk by, bite at his head, hit him with the tail and start slashing. I just bite the Marines head off (nmiaow), never knows what hit him...

Theyre fast, and deadly, but theyre weak as hell. A spear should take one out, hell, even the wristblade should do it, good snap in the head and hes down for the count, just watch out for the acid.

hehe the predator lacks machineguns  

[Ryx]

The 1 level playing as marine and you hear the predator everywhere...So cool.  

[KillMeNow]

i'm doing th predator missions first - damn i wish i had a machine gun - those aliens keep coming and i dont really like using my plasma caster up close unless i can always be ina  running backwards retrest otehrwise i kill myself =( a nice rapid fire weapon thats what i need wouldn't say no to a sight mode that lets me see all hostiles and now i'm stuck =( there is this drilling aperatus sitting around and i cant get pased it  =( and i cant find the controls to move it  =( arghhh - oh another thing can you run out of spears for the spear gun? i haven't yet but i been conserving it mostly cause its a great sniper weapon wish my disk was as acurate at distance

[Fineus]

Use the plasmacaster - it's the easiest/best way to kill Aliens and if you don't run into the centre of the room/tunnel then you usually get a good chance to kill them all before their on you.

One thign though is that the Predator can be easily overwhelmed by Aliens because of his shortage of good long range weapons. Only things like the shoulder cannon etc.

At least the Marine is totally long range. Pulse rifles and all.

Yeah, but he set up some crazy trap and hid himself.
I mean a straight fight in a ring, the Xeno would just rip a Humans arms off and take a chunk out of his head. Match over in 3 seconds or less

bah, it's the same for the predator: take all his weapons and put him in front of an alien hehe  

[KillMeNow]

take all there weaposn away then its alien, predator, human

with weapons its predator, human , alien

one on one that is aliens tend to visit by the hundreds in teh film and about 10 max in the game well to where i got so far anyway, strangely enough it was my first encounter with them  just used my spear thingy to cut there head off as they ran up to me

[KillMeNow]

i like being the predator - hehe - stalking the enemy - and when alien visit chop them up or blast them - its those damn synthetics that annoy me they can see me while clocked and sometimes they are armed with rocket launchers - ouch - 1 hit kills =(

one thing - whats the reward for collecting heads? does it do you any good? or should i just not bother with the collecting the head of my enemys?
