Xenomorphs needs some buff
I think that xenomorphs have a big disadvantage compared to, for example, a predator, unlike them, they have no possibility to enjoy things from a distance, the only thing they have is a flick of the tail, a strong attack, which before I do it, it's over for me, and a weak attack, and of course the arrival, the predator has three of the aliens four attacks, plus heal, invisibility, infravision, and about four other abilities, of which 2 are one shot one kill, which the xenomorph doesn't have, yes, he can climb walls and climb shafts, but that's useless when there arent shafts in online, and the predator can jump high, and the only thing that can help the xenomorph is some more useful map in which there are not many chances, so I think the alien would need a buff, and I don't want talk like: so don't play as a xenomorph. but the fact that it is there is really the only reason why I play the game, so please only write your opinion here and not something like a character change

I know few people who can dominate as the xenomorph, so a buff isn't really needed (then again not like this game will ever get any changes sadly) other than just learning how to play as one

Play with an experienced alien player and you will see how much subservient he is compared to the predator (sarcasm of course)
I think you are completely wrong
It is true that you are talking about alien attacks and ranged predators attacks, but an experienced alien is more than capable of making a difference in gameplay and kill count compared to other species.

Are you playing online? I tried to find an online match the other night and got nothing.

To play, gather experience and learn, as in all other games.

Or whine that the game is not well made and gives up without putting any effort into learning how to play, and of course give up the game

it's actually interesting that after 14 years, the same thesis is still put forward that it's almost impossible to play with a certain species.
Sometimes it's an alien like in your case, sometimes it's a predator that can't fight aliens and marines because it's simply too weak. Then again there are those who say that the marine is simply too weak compared to the other species, and in fact no one questions the skill.

Of course, the game has its flaws, such as glitches and for years there has been a debate about whether glitches is it cheating or is it simply an extremely unfair gameplay which gives a huge advantage to those who build their gameplay exclusively on glitches and spoils the game for other players and how to put an end to it or is it even possible regardless of server rules and admins.
That's another topic that you don't understand because you're at the beginning, i mean in a phase when it seems to you that some species are inferior to other species.

Trust me, play and you will see that alien is one bad a.s.s motherf.u.c.k.e.r!

Just like the other two AvP games that came before this one, the alien can be incredibly powerful - it just has the sharpest learning curve of the species. If any species needs a small buff, it is the Predator. Not that they are particularly under powered in any one-on-one fight, or that they are not fun to play - just that they loose the ranged game to marines, and lose the melee game to aliens, and thus can be stuck in a difficult middle ground in a species team death match.

The alien has remarkable speed, and the tail is just an incredible asset in combat. Marines are easily staggered and most don't bother countering heavy strikes. If played correctly, the alien can kill most marines without them having any chance to even react. Predators are tougher, but the alien will still win most 1:1 fights against a Pred if the Alien lands the first hit, and the aliens are fast and unpredictable enough to not have to worry as much about ranged combat from slow-shooting Predators.

Overall, the classes are fairly balanced.
