Marine Weapons

-Knife
The knife is the Marine's most basic weapon. Use this in close quartered battles when it is your last resort.








-Pistol
The pistol is another one of the Marine's standard weapons. Try to land headshots with the pistol, otherwise it does not inflict much damage.







-Shotgun
The shotgun is not to be used in long range combat. Only try to use it when your enemy is in a close proximity, for it is leathal in close range combat.







-Pulse Rifle
The pulse rifle is an effictive weapon at either long or short range. The alternate fire button shoots a short bomb with semi wide splash damage at your enemy.







-Flamethrower
The flamethrower is an excellent way to go about shooing off those pesky charging aliens by the flock.








-Smartgun
The smartgun goes about auto-targeting for you, but slows you down immensely. This is an extremely powerful weapon that should be used at a distance.







-Rocket Launcher
The Rocket Launcher will demolish any foe with a direct hit. No matter what you do, don't use this as a close range weapon. You will blow yourself up, too.







-Minigun
The minigun is an extremly large weapon, that is wonderful at destroying your foe at either close ranges, or at a distance.







-Sniper Rifle
This is the ultimate sniper rifle. Camp in the distance, zoom in, and take their head off. Don't forget to zoom with your alternate fire button.

Predator Weapons

-Wristblade
The wristblades are a standard issue weapon for all Predator hunters, which does moderate damage. Attacks consist of two backhand slashes and an uppercut.






-Shoulder Cannon
Another weapon that is standard issue for all Predators, it shoots balls of energy from the cannon mounted on your shoulder. Be sure to watch your energy meter though, excessive usage of the cannon will depleat all of your energy and will prevent you from using other energy vital weapons and items.




-Speargun
The speargun is the sniping hunter's dream. Take this on a mission, zoom in on your prey, and land a headshot on your opponent without them ever knowing what hit them. Weapon fires one spear per shot.






-Pistol
The pistol is an excellent weapon to fend off charging aliens or other foes. The gun shoots a discharge that extends a few feet, then quickly drops to the ground and implodes.






-Disc
The disc is a great weapon for the predator to throw into a croud of marines, and leave with many trophies. Beware, though, the disc can become stuck in solid objects. You will either have to go and get the disc back, or manually recall it.





-Netgun
The netgun is the perfect weapon to disable your foe for just long enough to take their head off. The netgun shoots one net per round.







Remote Bomb
The remote bomb allows you to plant a bomb on the ground, and detinate it with the right mouse button on will. This weapon is very useful for situations in which you have time to plan your attack on a docile enemy.






-Combistick
The combstick is a weapon to use in close range attacks with moderate to slow foes. Two to three good blows with the combistick, and your opponent becomes your trophey.

Multiplayer Modes

Deathmatch
The name says it all. Kill anyone and everyone, everyone against everyone. This is a free for all with only one objective; get more frags or points than anyone else in the Multiplayer game. Each game can end in one of several ways set by the game's host; when the game reaches a maximum time limit when one player reaches a maximum value of either points or frags.

Team Deathmatch
This is a team oriented deathmatch, where the frags are totaled up per team, not per player. It follows the basic deathmatch rules but pits teams of similar species against each other- Alien versus Marine versus Predator. You get points by killing members of other species. If you kill one of your own species, one point will be deducted from your team's (species) point total.

Hunt
In the Hunt Multiplayer mode, one or more players are designated as the Hunter, and everyone else is prey. Only hunters can accumulate frags. If a prey kills a hunter, the two mutate into each other and respawn to new locations; that is, the prey becomes the hunter race, and the hunter becomes the prey. The game continues until the maximum number of frags or the maximum time limit is reached. Also, the host has the option to set a Hunter to Prey Ratio in the game.

Survivor
Survivor starts in a tag mode where its every man for himself. The first person killed becomes a mutant, everyone else becomes a survivor and game play moves to the survive mode. For each second you stay alive as a survivor, you gain 1 point. When a mutant kills a survivor the mutant gets 10 points and the survivor respawns as a mutant. But if a mutant kills another mutant, or a survivor kills another survivor, the killer loses 10 points. The round is over when all survivor players are killed and thus respawned as Mutants. The player with the highest score wins.

Overrun
This is a team based game played for a set number of rounds. Players divide into two groups, attackers and defenders. Each round lasts for a fixed period of time, and there is no respawning. If you are killed, you are out until the next round. If at least one defender survives the timed round, the defenders get one point per team member still alive. If all the defenders are eliminated, the attackers get one point per team member still alive. The team with the most points at the end of all rounds is the winner.

Evac
Evac is another team based game played for a set number of rounds. Players split up into two groups, attack and evac. The evac team must evacuate one or more of its members before the round ends. To evacuate, a team member must reach the maps evac zone and stay there alive, for ten seconds. Attackers must prevent Evac players from evacuating before the round ends. Attackers also win by killing all of the Evac Team. Each round lasts for a fixed period of time, and there is no respawning. If you are killed, you are out until the next round.
