    	    <description><![CDATA[I think vaxjo is clearly implying that he disabled complex (volumetric) infestation, and it's definitely weird that that type of infestation would bring down fps so much. 

Basically if you deny aliens 2nd hive you auto win as marines. If you deny marines 2nd tech point (and marines dont own a disproportionate amount of RTs) you win as aliens. Marines will try a final shotgun rush, if they lost their chance at 2nd tech. Aliens will try a skulk rush if they lost their chance at 2nd hive. There is no midgame at all and the endgame is just a boring slow roll over the enemies final base.

I've seen a rare few instances where marines had 2 tech and aliens had 2 hives and things got MILDLY interesting, but usually aliens end up winning in this situation anyway because of OP onos.

Agree with Darn, although I've seen a handful of proper games too by now.
80% of games(at least on publics) seem to go the way you described.
Clan matches seem to revolve around gimmicky rush tactics be it mines, gorges or your standard skulk-baserush, they're strangely effective. 
I have mostly played with new groups so it's not wonder we get stomped that way but this is the picture I'm getting from more established teams and their matches too.
