Hello and thank you for attending. Xeno is in a dire state. We have noticed that the 10 second stun from when huggers are dropped/thrown by
carriers is not enough to properly balance their overpoweredness. The 5 second window when a hugger can latch before it dies is far too long.
This is by far too overpowered a skill and marines cannot be expected to do things like corner sweeps and room clears - it’s
unreasonable to ask them to pause their unga to pay attention to things around them.
As such, we are nerfing hugger autolatch range to 1 tile. We feel this will bring xenos into more of a balance and make the game more enjoyable for all.
We have several other items that were briefly brought before our attention before being summarily discarded as insane and not worthy of addressing.
Please see below if interested, but not worth your time. Thank you that is all.
