Give survs better respawn options.

Exactly what it says on the box - survs shouldn’t be penalised for shitting all over the hive and denying caps. If survs kill a third of the fucking hive then they have to contend with the xenos who died for the larva queue and since people who died before get priority, respawning as xeno can take hours.

Surv is already basically a diet xeno roll, does it really have to be this harsh on replayability? Yes, survs aren’t meant to survive always or even often, but it feels like ass being able to live for 20 minutes and then not being able to play again at all.

Either give survs priority over dead xenos in the queue (at least if these xenos died to the afforementioned survs), or let survs respawn as marines. If you’re concerned about survs metaing shit, perhaps this could be tied in with ghost vision becoming faction-limited: you may only see extra stuff such as the hive spot if you’ve opted out of rejoining as marine.

survs getting prio over xenos would encourage them to allow themselves to be capped because they’d get prio over their own bodies to be xenos

terrible idea

They already get first prio on their capped body.

Don’t survs already get priority for their own larva in their body if they have the preference on?

Your not rolling to play as a Xenomorph, you are rolling to play as a Survivor.

Everyone’s already said it

You’re rolling to play survivor and that’s what makes it so fun

The risk of dying and losing the entire round

Exactly I play survivor for the challenge of being under equipped and disorganized.

I mean if you died twenty minutes in the round you won’t be that far behind in the queue anyway.
