: : First of all, I wish some of you morons would stop going around
: : and killing all your fellow marines on purpose. You just Ruin the game
: : for everyone else.
: Always a problem with newbies, let them kill you, they get 4 (within 5mins) they get auto-kicked! Come back kill another, click, they go again!
: : Secondly, I suggest the one of you server admins sets the player limit to
: : 5 or so. I find that the levels are commonly much too crowded with more than
: : 6/7 people. Most of the time, only 2 of the five servers are being played on anyway,
: : so it shouldn't really keep anyone from playing. Anyways, that's it. Thanks for readin'.
: I our default line up there are a couple of smallish maps, they are in simply for a change. Bigger the maps the better, more suspenceful hunting! Marines also have a better chance to survive.. Too much room and they get fully powered up! Not good for the pred'!!
Still, it pays to examine the maps used by the server. Some are tougher than others for the predator.
Any level with power armor in it, for example, represents a tougher challenge for the predator.
(They're also more fun because you get better "pinball" action bouncing marines off walls with the
rail gun).
On the other hand, some levels are better for the pred. Levels where the rocket launcher is difficult
to get to can be a lot easier for the predator.
