Nice guide! You didn't have to name it marine guide though, even if you played marine, as this works for any spieces. Everyone makes use of knowing how the others attacks look like :)
even backed up and healed up again to charge at him, it was fun but of course i died in the end. I think i put up a valiant effort though ;). Predators are my favorite to kill as marine. I used to play solely alien but I may switch to mostly marine soon.
I freaking love marine man! having such high kill streaks all thanks to the melee system. When people try to use casters i just shoot at it and it disorients them or if im near them just punch. Aliens are impossible to lose too because they cant charge, pounce, or tail you unless they're on a wall/ceiling. I tried melee'ing a predator to death was so hard i hope someday i can xD. I punched blocked punched he then hit me before i could block again, punch, block etc. ..continued
@junfan1234 Yes you can block focus pounces by both predators and aliens, if you see an alien staring right at you from a surface try to get him to pounce you instead of shooting for an easy win.
this was pretty good. i'd like to see some advanced melee training on here some day. like strategy for the really cheap players. like the preds who only do heavy attacks or people who do heavy fake outs.
@H3luckynoob no, marines cant block an alien tail whip that's because its a heavy attack so its unblockable but it's possible to counter their heavy attack by melee hitting them b4 they hit u cause its a charged up hit
highly impossible to counter a predator heavy attack...their heavy attack is too fast and their heavy attack can come from all around you, from behind or the side where you cant block -.-
I think this is totally rad we tend to play it during the break with my sisters they are really awesome at it. I downloaded the game totally free for my sony ps3 from - 115 games . c o m there are hundreds and the best thing is they are all totally free oh also 0:11 was striking
1. is gay and mainstream, go find yr own fav artists not ones that everybody knows
2. does NOT suit the game at all! seriously wtf? some lovey dovey shit on a game which involves ripping off heads and stroking humans spinal chords? wtf???
Counters don't work 90% of the time because lag. It should also be noted that counters marine vs predator do not stun the predator, so if you block a light attack and counter with a melee attack, the predator can still instantly start a heavy attack before you can get off another melee attack.
the predator is anyways fucking overpowered in this game i mean look predator have rangeweps AND meele weps wich are SAME STRONG THEN ALIENS CLAWS AND TAIL and they still dont fall down when they get a counter attack like alien ! and they can fucking disc spam the SHIT OUT OF YOU predator is really unbalanced but thats the only thing i dont like on that game exept for that the game is awsome
i dont think you can do anything...for example if they grab you from behind you will always die...if they grab you from the front you might survive for example...if you do a focus atack with the predator onto a marine and he falls, if the predator grabs the marine the marine will counter atack....it depends on your health...if you have a lot of health the marine will counter atack if grabed by the front, if hes health is low, then he will die
Question: Has anyone ACTUALLY beat an alien to death with only Melee...Been bashing this alien with the Marine for about 20 minutes now...fuck I must be board
:o marines ftw cept i use 360... playing as marine just gives you that badassness in a way that the other races just don't have, nothing like running down a pitch black hallway and your annoying ass beeper going off and you turn around then boom pred or alien behind you and instinctively shotgun-headshot a second before he touches you and you return to face previous direction and another comes then you block and counter and then BOOM another ownage... epicness ftw
i found how a marine blocks trophy kills he automatically does it but it only will work if he is pounced then grabed or he hits a block attack and the enemy light attacks him then grabs for kill
nice vid does anyone know how to get out of a trophy kill from front as a marine i've done it before and my guy punched the predator in the face and let go and i shot him but i dont know how i did it
@armyboypyro if you have more than one block of hp and go into a blocking stance while being grabbed you should block it.... What i do is keep tapping the block buttons while getting grabbed (usually works for me)
Actually, as you can see, a Predator focused attack causes less than a block of health. I mean, the 3rd health segment can heal back, where as the other hits where right between segments, so they can't heal back (unless you use stims, obviously). LOL
the stratedgy is all the same for all races atleast it is on ps3 demo, if someone is going to light attack you, you block and then you can easily destroy the attacker by spamming light attacks back after you block. But your screwed if they come in with a heavy attack... The other stealth tactics are random to work or not... What I like to do when fighting a human is leap attack and while he is stunned for a little bit heavy attack and quickly light attack and that way he cant shoot me long enuf
@tidomann I myself have tried several times, as a marine I can block light attacks, and I use melee right afterwards and it seems the alien or predator are completely unphased and kill me before I can shoot. How I confirm a hit is the thud not the woosh. when I melee'd several times it seems the second melee attack would make the opponent actually reel back, then I could shoot them safely while back pedaling.
For the record you cant counter predators you can just stop them attacking cuz they wont be stunned longer then it takes you to be able to shoto again same goes for stoppin alien heavy attacks Only useful mellee is human after blocking Alien light attack
@MaxCrooks what works for me most of the time is this... An alien is about 2 heavy attack me..(i know i can't block heavy attacks) i melee attack at once, and then go into block, cause most of the time the enemy will get stressed and start spamming light attack and thats where i block and then counter attack him.. BAAAM dead :D ohh and yes you can counter predators,, he don't fall over but he gets knocked/dazed back, and thats long enought 2 blast him back 2 jupitor :D
Actually when playing the game? no its fucking stupid and its batshit insane hard, you dont think hurr light attack or heavy? you instantly react with trying to kill them.
Yes, branman, this is the entire game. You find someone, stand in front of eachother in a gentlemanly manner, and choose an attack. You may not strafe, wall-crawl, flank, sprint, focus-jump, use ranged weaponry, hone your environmental awareness, or employ any other tactics whatsoever.
Perhaps if they had chosen a halo-style melee system allowing competitors to mash a button until the other falls over then the game would be competitive.
Haha thankyou. Yeah, in fullscreen 1080 it's not too bad. If you want a very clear image of the attacks, check out my alien tutorial. They are easily outlined there. It's linked off the intro that this video is a response to.
