Default Re: Your Aliens Ideas

One thing that comes to my mind is don't make a complete reliance on guns to fight the aliens. I think something that might be really cool is (in sp or mp) if an alien attacks you, it'll slam you up against a wall or door. But make it so you still have a way of escaping, whether it's grabbing an axe from the wall and hitting the alien, kicking a gas canister, or shooting the supports to a pipe so it falls on it's head. As a last resort, kicking the alien in the groin, or something similar And on the alien side of things, find places that have a minimal amount of counter measures, and then maybe having to spot the weak point in the players (marine's) armor to finish him off. Kind of a minigame race thing. marine's find an enviromental tool to use vs. aliens precision aiming of a final blow. Of course that would take some more tweaking and such.

Newborns! (and Predaliens)

Note: This sounds like a comeback to Resistance:tFoM and GoW.

I was awsome as a runner in AVP2.

Also, MP, must have Survivor as a game mode.

I think the game as a shooter should be a little more traditional in style whilst keeping it unique. Squad based gameplay I cant see working in an Aliens game.
Whats a runner? I never played AvP 2.

Please, no Newborns.

The fourth Alien movie blew chunks. It wasn't scary at all.

I greatly agree with this statement.

Please no Ripley or original characters from the movie in this game! it would just come out wrong in a lot of ways. I don't mind if the actors from the film voice new characters, but please don't bring back well known characters just to sell the game.

I would like to see the story line of either this game or the RPG (perhaps mostly the RPG) go deeper into the mythos of the Aliens Universe, exploring some ideas that haven't been explored yet, while not digressing too far from the original movies.

I think the answer's obvious. Ethnic steoreotype Marines! I wanna be Romano Marine - the guy who screams "Got pizza?" everytime he blows apart an Alien into spagetti-O's.

All right, serious. I've played both Alien vs. Predator 1 & 2, and the main problem was always lack of mods and poor online-play. If you can solve those two things, you've come a long way.

Good luck, man!
