You mind telling me how? Who says the Kryll are bad at swarming? They're practically omniscient, keeping the night skies covered. They're on your ass the moment you step out of the light. I'd love to see leapers do the same. Chimera would essentially have to wait it out.

As for the "good guys" comment: EXACTLY! PIS (Plot-Induced Stupidity). Based on what you're saying anyways.

chimera have ships armed with lazers,mg's,rockets, etc

Say the Locust are susceptible, the Chimera still have Lambency to deal with. Your virus is overruled either way.

Their intelligence is outmatched, yes, but the Locust have tactical superiority here. And to say they don't know how to fight is laughable. They're a militarized race, so they have fighting down.

they can fight but they are slow, sluggish, fat and extremely unintelligent.

Ummm....When have you seen Locust being slow with firearms? And if they have no common sense, how are they pressing on against the might of the CoG? Locust take aim, locust pull trigger, leapers die.

Hmm that would explain why everybody likes cod much much much much more than gow? huh?

Tell you what. Go kick a rather large wasp nest AT NIGHT and try to shoot them down wth a rapid fire bb gun. Same scenario. You'll take down some but get overwelmed.
Are you trying to compare 2 sheet thick skin with a bb to extremely thick mental and lazers,heat sensors,rockets,bullets that lock on, mg's, drones',etc?

In which case Resistance seems to have a serious plot hole. But whatever, oneshot ftw. And if the protags in Resistance can take down spires, no question a hardened Locust army can do the same.
PIS chimera could have just ended the war I even said that in the comment you replied to!

Because COD has no honor anymore and gets milked year after year by appealing to the 10 - 16 year old range of kids who want to feel badass. After the WW2 era of COD, the games have pretty much been just copy and paste, copy and paste. Their all alike now.

Kryll > wasp. Chimera weapons > bb guns. Same scope, different scale. Drones won't stand and fight it, they'll just stay underground 😉 you seriously underestimate guerilla warfare.

Very well then, we have nothing more to discuss about that. And what I said still stands.

I meant how are the Kryll bad at swarming? But since we're going down this route, the Locust could also Hammer the leapers as well as the ships. We've talked about this, remember?

But they know how to fight, and you're not seriously saying ALL of the Locust are fat, slow, dumb, whatever, are you?! You refer to brutish infantry as if they're the only thing they have to offer. The drones alone are physically more formidable than most of the Chimera, and they're at the low tier of the Horde. You can't rely argue physical inferiority when the average Locust is built like a prehistoric gorilla and can stomp a head into nothing with ease. Whereas the average Chimera can be beaten to death by an average sized red-headed chick, and don't argue otherwise because I've seen it.

I never knew cod4 was just like cod bo2 and btw there are plenty of people who are 23 or older and still play cod.

Chimeran drones are armed and can take out a few krll before being destroyed.

The locust will hammer the leapers but not before the leapers have killed locust. Im not saying all are fat but there are quite a few that are. Really? a female killing a chimera? chimera have regenerating abilities are much stronger and faster than a human, no human can take one on let alone a female. Yes locust are stronger than chimera but this is not a hth fight and chimera have numbers and better weapons not to mention a healing factor unlike the locust.

Last time I remember on the game trained military males were no match for single leapers and saying a female can kill one by beating it to death is just odd.

None of the CoD games provide a unique experience anymore, anyways all the live gameplay I hear when I see CoD is just the high, shrill voices of children. The series died after the WW2 games.

I guess the PIS you said is the Resistance thingy we were talking about, if so, then it is PIS, I'm not arguing.

I go to college with game designers within that age group. Some of whom are friends of mine. I don't know any of them to like CoD.

Go back, play Gears 1, and try that. Not as easy as your saying, nor does it make any meaningful difference. It's an exercise in futility.

This we agree on. Casualties are to be expected, but the leapers aren't just going to eradicate them. I'm not confident they'll even have any significant impact. They can't win this war for them, so I'd quit relying on them to.

I saw this happen myself. It's RIGHT THERE in the game. Argue with the mechanics.

So the Locust win.

Which female are you referring to?
