Coolest Alien Race/Lamest Alien Race
« on: March 16, 2003, 07:42:50 pm »

I just want to see what you guys think about everyone in the SC galaxy or whatever. I mean not only the race, but their ships, their morality, their starsystems etc etc.

1)Personally, the coolest race in the whole galaxy is Kohr-Ah, I mean i don't like making confrontations with them, but come on. Look at em'! Their super bad ass black spiders that dont take crap from anyone. Man, their whole backround, like hurting themsleves to save their people. Pretty courageous. It was never revealed where they came from, cept from the Moon the Kzer-Za were born. The Dnyarri sorta created them, but I mean, so much honor involved here. Althought they kill everyone, their really awesome creatures.

2)The Lamest race in the SC galaxy in my opinion, is the Utwig. I mean, whiny depressos that think about nothing but the dumb ultron. God what a bring-down. Freakin awesome ships, which is their only plus. But thank god for the Supox or they would have killed themselves with their bomb a long time ago. The only thing their good for is their ships man.

Hm, that reminds me:
______________________________
Testimonial:

Korh-Ah can kill anyone they want!  Korh-Ah cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it.  These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time.  I heard that there was this Korh-Ah who was eating at a diner.  And when some thraddash dropped a spoon the Korh-Ah killed the whole planet.  My friend Mark said that he saw a Korh-Ah totally uppercut some spathi just because the spathi opened a window.

The coolest race is definitely the Spathi, with the Ilwrath in second and the Androsynth for their utterly awesome ships capable of decimating entire regions of space with their DEATH BUBBLES. Of course, the Melnorme rock too.

The lamest races are the Utwig (They could have been crybabies without being so danged annoying. I also hate ships with shields as the CPU whores them.), the Supox (Duh... we're plants. Yeah, that's our only gimmick.), the Arilou, and the Chmmr, for lacking class altogether.

WHAT IN GODS NAME IS THIS CRAP THERE PUTTING ON WEB SITES THESE DAYS! that has to be the second most messed up view about any one subject i ever saw. the first would be a site i saw when i first stated using the internet, something about star trek and how it promotes satanism. even gives details, like the name "enterprise" means buisness, and buisness is corrupt, so there for it is satan in disguise. funny? to some, stupid? yes. i think some one has tooo much time on there hands. anyways may be ill go try and find it see if its still up? ill post if i find it.~DEFIANT

Coolest alien race would have to be the Pkunk.  They're so spaced out and om time with the psychadelic happenings of the galaxy that they top my list.  Their Yehat brethern deserve runner-up status as the coolest Scottish birds I've ever known.

Lamest SC2 race?  Hmmm...  I dunno, I see good in most of the races and it's hard to say I don't like one in particular.  I think the Supox were lame because they had no development or true identity.  I used to think the Druuge were kinda lame, but I'm starting to appreicate their evilness as of late.  I'd put my money on the Supox.

i know its a joke but i mean what the hell. people are going to great lengths to entertain the public. i myself am easily ammused but sometimes funny goes beyond good taste. that site did get good laugh but its was after all not done in good taste. i may be 28 and out of the loop, but that stuff was funny when i was in 3rd grade. im grown now and raising 2 kids. not to say that i dont get it or im prude about f word or making (richard) jokes, hell i found jay and silent bobs movies very funny, still do. but theres a time when, well... you just gotta grow up. maybe when my kids reach that certain age ill share with them all the shit i used to do and found funny but untill then...i gotta draw the line.~DEFIANT

Awesome soldiers? Well, they might be good in hand-to-hand, but against a human their ship is not very strong.
Anyone have the numbers on how many people an Orz marine will knock off on the various ships?

Speaking of which, I once fought a Pkunk that came back on me five times. I don't even fight Pkunk that much, so I wonder what the world record is for respawning birdies.

I always used to think that the Orz fought differently against the various races, but I think one of the dev team here said that it was a constant for all races.

On PONAF it says that there was a Pkunk that respawned 14 times or so.
