Wikipedia wrote:There are 6 game modes. The game modes are Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Hunt, Survivor, Overrun, and Evac.
Deathmatch is a free for all match. In Deathmatch, one can be any race within the server settings. As a player in deathmatch, one must try to cumulate the highest amount of frags. Deathmatch maps are idenitfied mostly by "dm_" before the name, i.e. dm_sanctum, dm_industry, dm_backstreets, dm_bouvetoya, dm_deadlock, dm_tarbaby, dm_hive2, dm_reservoir.
Team Deathmatch is a deathmatch among teams. The teams are fixed as the four races of AVP2. Therefore one can choose between four teams, one for each race. Each race competes against each other to get the highest amount of frags or score. Team deathmatch maps are played on deathmatch maps but some maps have been released for team deathmatch only, i.e. tdm_vendetta_v1-2, tdm_morlock, tdm_dropshipdown, tdm_hellsgate, tdm_backstreets _vendetta. Some maps like crystalcrash and tdm_hellsgate are designed for only two teams. For example, tdm_hellsgate only allows the marine and alien team to play in the map.
Hunt is another game type. In hunt there are 2 teams, the hunters and the prey. Each player is competeing against one another. The object is to get the most frags. Frags can only be attained by a hunter. The prey are the only players that can be fragged in order to gain a point. But the prey have to frag a hunter in order to take that player's place on the hunter team. A ratio of hunters to prey determines how many hunters can play. The server determines the ratio. The hunt game type is played on deathmatch maps.
Survivor, another game type, has the same goal as any other game. The object is to stay alive as the defender race. A player gets a point for every second the player is alive as a defender. If a player on the mutant race (the race that is against all the survivors) kills a survivor then their score goes up by 10 for each frag. Every player starts as a defender at the beginning of a round. The round starts in Tag mode, where a defenders frag another defender so the game can begin. A defender is spawned into a mutant when fraged unless fraged by another defender in survive mode. Survivor maps are played on deathmatch maps.
Overrun can be between only 2 teams. It is akin to survivor, however players can choose which team they want to play on. The teams are selected by the host. There is a survivor race and a mutant race. The survivor race must survive and frag the other team. The mutant race must destroy the opposite team in order to win. In this mode players get lives, when they die, they go into free-fly. If either one of the teams has no representers alive then the other team wins the round. Also if one team has no representer for a round the match will automatically end and go to the next map. Points are made by the amount of players alive at the end of the round. This is true for either mutants or survives. Overrun must be done on overrun maps because of the placement of spawn points (players need to spawn with their team). Overrun maps are commonly signified with "over_" i.e. over_compound, over_cyb_moor, over_terraform, over_stronghold.
Evacuation has 2 teams which are selected by the host. Evacuation involves an attacker race and a defender race. These races determine the teams. The attacker race must find and stay alive inside the map's evacuation point. An attacker must survive in the area for 10 seconds. The defending team tries to stop the attackers from reaching this point. Each team has a specified amount of lives. The server selects the number of lives for the teams. If all the players of either one of the teams are dead, then the other team wins the round. Rounds are timed, and if time runs out, the defending race wins. In most cases, only one evacuating player needs to reach the evac point to start the countdown, but some modified servers require all alive evacuating players to reach and hold the evac point. Attacker players also have a designating arrow on their HUD. This arrow points to the evacuation zone. Players that have no lives left or are waiting for the next round go into free fly (observe mode). Evacuation maps can contain a lot of sub-missons. I.e. evac_alley requires players to find a hostage before they can start evacuation in the dropship. Evacuation maps are marked by "evac_" before their name, i.e. evac_verloc, evac_castaway, evac_gauntlet, evac_industry, and evac_stranded.

If they did, I haven't heard anything about it. And I'd know if I'd heard about it, because I'd be all out of semen. :winky:

I can't even find any available on eBay.
No idea. Want to try?
It doesn't look like it has all stuff the full does though.
They were really nice guys tho.
Hahaha. It really depends on skill. I've played a game like that as well, and the alien was murdering everyone.
I would totally be up for some multiplayer demo shenanigans

I found a decent trick with the Alien is to hide somewhere on the celing/wall and drop down behind someone when they run past/underneath you, then go for the kill.
Also, that demo is only 64 megs and that link is fast enough. We can play the demo if people can't their disks. The demo has:
Seems pretty good. I don't recall which map that is though.
Edit: Installed. Do we have a specific server?
Also, I've never bothered to learn any modes other than TeamDM, but this would be a good time to try.
I've never played the game though
I had loads of fun killing predators and aliens with the knife. Although it didn't happen very often.
The game type will be Deathmatch and the map 'A Lesser Fate'.
This is complete vanilla, installed with no updates (except a no-cd patch).
Demo or retail?
Try fixing your router, if that doesn't work we'll try with you hosting.
I'm guessing the demo and the retail versions are incompatible
Which kind of sucks
