Maybe it's not the game but you as I find the controls respond quite find, I also find it easy to tell whether I heavy or light attack is coming.

The idea behind using a light attack against a heavy attack it to hit the person, so if you see the aliens tail arch or the pred take a step back it's time for you to move forward and hit light.

The normal strong attack with the tail is not a quick whip, the normal strong attack is where it seems to charge up.

The quick whip is the tail attack you can do whilst on any surface but the wall, notch it up to a bug that youc an do it on the floor when it has no use.

If you're playing without auto transition you're doing it wrong and you'll never be as effective as other aliens.

As for the graphics they aren't fully polished and it's running on dx9 when it's been primarily designed for dx11, so why judge them.

Please excuse the typos, I just woke up.

but the floor*

The main reason I have auto transition off is that if im in a fight with someone and like backing up I dont want it to grab onto a wall because that forces your view somewhere else as opposed to looking at the person coming at you also there are some areas where it just keeps shifting your view and with the motion blur its impossible to see anything your screen is just a blur for like 10 seconds which is a death trap in any fight.

I have also found that the pred light attack seems to stun slightly, I have been in a few games where I am getting hit by it and I try to bring up my block but I just keep getting knocked back.

Also it's not that I don't climb on walls at all, I still spend heaps of time crawling all over the place but I just prefer that I tell it when to crawl and not accidently latch onto any surface.

anyway 90% of the time there is lag in the servers so it could just be that as to why im having such trouble with the scissors paper rock but that doesn't excuse the crappy controls that feel ever so sluggish.

Never back up, always run past them or leap to another surface.
