If this game sucks I'm putting Gearbox on an express elevator to hell. Goin' down.

I don't know if this has been asked but isn't the alien's blood supposed to be green and... you know... dangerously acidic?

Don't think they ever show enemy blood in these screens. All the red blood is likely that of the humans.

If you suck at the first level, you should unlock the achievement "Bad Cornbread"
And if you keep sucking, you unlock the achievement "Ever Been Mistaken for a Man?"

Looking good except it needs less shiny plastic skin and more alien drool.
They should hire the RE4 team to do the drool.

No, not a mod. As far as I know it's a mode you can turn on in multiplayer called "Alien life cycle". It speaks for itself. I've never played the multiplayer myself, though.TheJollyCorner said:watching some AvP2 videos...
am I seeing this right? You can actually be a facehugger in multi-player? Is that a special mod or something?Awesome!
Any chance of gaf organizing a couple of multi AvP2? Seems there's a lot of love for this game still.
Aliens: Colonial Marines looks promising! However, not being able to play the alien, in multiplayer at the very least, would be insta fail.

This is direction that I was hoping they would take. If the graphics are even half as good as those bullshots, then I'm a happy gamer. The atmosphere is perfect! This is going to be a terrifying game, and most likely a tremendously successful online title. Day one. Or If I can get on the mp beta somehow, Day negative sixty or so.

that radar scared the shit out of me in avp1.
Yes. Of fuck yes. Just the sound of it and when it picks up something, your first thought is "Oh fuck, I'm running." Turn around and there's like five blips. Damn. This game has got to deliver. Please make it good Gearbox!

I think from what I have read at least a few members of your squad stick with you through the game. Each bringing something to the game that you have to utilise at points. Also for friends to jump in and play too.

Should have expected this really what with Gearbox's work on BiA. Does this mean that certain squad members will therefore be invincible-how does it work in BiA? If your squad members die is it game over for you? Or do they die and then magically reappear at the next checkpoint?

As far as I can tell from the info after the jump, two games are in development. One rpg and one fps.
'(...)The game will go beyond the Sulaco, there will be human enemies involved that
[want] the aliens as biological weapons. And the mystery of the space jockey's species might
be also revealed.'
I don't know if they should mess with this though - especially the 'space jockey.
This is Alien-lore. Only Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Shusett should be allowed to add to that.
I remember enjoying the Alien game - not Ressurection - on the first PSX a lot. Anyway the pictures look promising.
Is there anything known about the voice actors?
Looking great!
Motion tracker and facehugger look fantastic!
I hope they can keep up this level of authenticity.
And speaking unique multiplayer roles: I see a pyro, an engineer (welder), a demo man and a heavy gunner.. remember those guns on hydraulic arms? =)

Even the auto gun turrets from the special edition version are there =)
I remember playing AVP 1 at 2am in the dark with headphones on, damn that shit was scary. Cant wait to do it in HD, gonna be crazy.
Hope when the face huggers latch on your face, it doesn't leave a giant yellow pussy on your screen, it should be all dark with light creeping in from between the legs, would be really cool having your team pulling it off you, useful team commands 4tw.

I think it looks great. I have faith in Gearbox.

This is what I found out about the conception of the facehugger.
It is suppose to be rubber.
I have yet to check the extra´s on the dvd for it.
But most likely it´s all rubber and the ´womans genital reference´ is nonsense.
I kinda feel stupid though for even looking in to it.

I find myself in a total state of ambivalence regarding this game.

This.
Please do not suck. Please do not suck. Please do not suck. Still, as far as characters go, the xenomorph is my favorite one in movies, but this won't replace MGS4 for me as GotY (since Snake is unquestionably my favorite videogame character).
But again, pleeeeeeeeeease don't suck. I know Gearbox can do this.

they didn't use real genitals, but the underside of the face hugger you see Ash poking at after it died isn't rubber. there's oysters and other things in there. mostly meat products carefully arranged.TheKingOfSheep said:
AvP PC > AvP2 PC > AvP Jag but all are great games. the mp in AvP2 was the best... survivor mode was my favourite by far. but as far as frights go, the marine campaign in AvP PC was just relentless and terrifying... and replayable with random enemy placement to fuck with you. AvP 2 had it's moments of brilliance, but i still think there were far too many missions where you were fighting humans. loved all the parts up to where you first meet other humans though.

That's not going to happen. Come on, this is Gearbox. It's going to be all about your squad, with the aliens being little more than objects to plot attacks against.

I want to get excited but for some reason I think it will be average at best. Oh well, well see
