Support NeoGAF

[Pesmerga00]

Yes, absolutely.

It's kinda sad GAF is filled with such a lack of curiosity. Do you honestly think running would help. If they are hostile you are dead. On that same note, I doubt a species capable of the feats needed to get here, would be dumb enough to also be "Trigger Happy".

 

[LookAtMeGo]

I'd open fire on them.

 

[Escape Goat]

I got abducted once.

Oh you sweet summer child. You lack imagination.

Your avatar needs a new hat.

Spoiler

Tinfoil

 

[Two Words]

I definitely would. It would be a once in a lifetime thing.

Because you'll be dead soon after.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

I'll just walk up and say "bah weep gragnah weep ni in bong" and it should be fine.

 

[yrba1]

Welp, better prepare my anus

 

[perfectchaos007]

I would talk to the aliens about Jesus

 

[Vilix]

I'd take a video with my phone and then wait for the call from Art Bell.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

I'd say "Ba weep granna weep ninny bong" and offer them An energon goodie.

 

[Darkangel]

I'd freeze up trying to decide whether I should film the first contact in 1080p/60fps or 4K/30fps.

 

[itwasTuesday]

I want to get the first tour of the space ship.

I'd freeze up trying to decide whether I should film the first contact in 1080p/60fps or 4K/30fps.

That is a toughie

 

[Pesmerga00]

Oh you sweet summer child. You lack imagination.

I really don't.

At that level of tech, would they even need to experiment. A few scans should tell them everything.

 

[830920]

Not before making a GAF thread asking what to do, then ignore all advice.

 

[ZoltanXerxes]

Honestly, no. I would take pictures though.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

Seriously, id maybe take a pic and then flee.

More than likely any alien visitors would be hostile.

Much like our own explorers of old, we were looking for resources, which included slaves.

 

[itwasTuesday]

What if girls were on the ship?

Also, one of them winked at you.

 

[StrategyFan]

it depends

what's the status of my x-com squad?

 

[Poppy]

What if girls were on the ship?

Also, one of them winked at you.

i'd show them how far earth gaming has come since super mario world

 

[Bakercat]

Of course, how else am I gonna be the first human to take a
Selfie with an alien lifeform?

 

[Aselith]

I'd build a wall around it and make the Martians pay for it tbh

 

[ornery]

I'm black, so no

 

[KillLaCam]

I'd watch to see what they're doing at first. If I don't see them anally probing animals then i'll approach

 

[Ravelle]

Only if it meant me joining the Green Lantern Corps.

Also it depends what kind UFO we're talking here, if it's adorable saucer style air-craft then yes, if it's giant oval spheres like in Arrival, then No.

 

[Fisty]

I would act just like an American black guy in a routine traffic stop: sweating profusely, not moving without being instructed to do so, and with full knowledge I've got a 50/50 chance of not walking away unharmed.

 

[Pesmerga00]

Not before making a GAF thread asking what to do, then ignore all advice.

Could be more fun if you actually took all the advice.

See: Weird object thread.

 

[TheStig88]

I'd like to think that I would, but 'Fire in the Sky' makes me doubt it. I couldn't have been much more than 6-7 when I saw that movie and it fucked me up. That scene has stuck with me to this day.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

'Fire in the Sky' makes me doubt that I would. I couldn't have been much more than 6-7 when I saw that movie and it fucked me up. That scene has stuck with me to this day.

Based on a true story, that was.

 

[DragonSword]

Yes fuck that


Torture and being kept alive with medicine to experiment more is far worse than a death. That movie gives nightmares

 

[weemadarthur]

.

 

[dragonlife]

I wouldn't approach a suspicious car, let alone a UFO.

Same.

 

[Akronis]

Try fucking whatever's on board

 

[LifEndz]

I won't even approach a dog that doesn't know me. I'd run for dear life.

 

[.JayZii]

I really don't.

At that level of tech, would they even need to experiment. A few scans should tell them everything.

And what if that scan disassembles you molecule by molecule or something. At that level of tech why do they need you alive? To keep as a pet?

 

[Toxi]

EDIT: On second thought, I'd probably just stay the fuck away.

 

[Kurdel]

Hell no.

Gaffers in here prove once again that they are as smart as the crew of the Prometheus.

 

[Belker]

I think I would. I'd certainly watch it carefully and then it's a question whether my human curiosity would override my human flight response.

As an aside, I watched Fire in the Sky again the other day. It holds up quite well. What I hadn't picked up on is that in the alien scene, the detritus of previous human experiments looked like the piles of shoes etc. in Auschwitz. Sombre detail.

 

[Toxi]

On that same note, I doubt a species capable of the feats needed to get here, would be dumb enough to also be "Trigger Happy".

Humans have dabbled in space travel and we're still pretty trigger happy.

 

[Arkeband]

There could be snu-snu.

 

[Timedog]

He'll yeah I would. I would touch the UFO with my nasty fingers that are grubby from eating shrimp earlier.

 

[totowhoa]

I'd get close enough to take good video with my phone for once.

 

[kess]

Pull up a lawn chair

 

[webkatt]

Only to immediately attack viciously.

 

[Kelsdesu]

Yes. I would ask them to give me a GL ring and or a Guyver armor, or anything cool for that matter like that one movie.

 

[Diablos]

are you kidding me? I would run

Not like that may matter with the advanced tech they would have at their disposal...

 

[Gin-Shiio]

Why wouldn't I go talk to my brethren?

 

[Cow Mengde]

I would find some place to hide and hopefully observe it for a bit.

 

[NorthAndSouth]

No. Only two real options here.

If it's real, then I definitely do NOT want to be the one to make first contact with hostile or friendly aliens because I would be creeped out either way and there's no way of telling beforehand.

And it it's a fake, chances are I would just be creeped out by the people organizing such an elaborate hoax.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Yes.

Although i don't think that UFOs really exist as in that it's piloted by aliens. Probably it's some secret test plane from goverments. Have you ever thought why there are about a million reports about UFOs but not one, not a single clear photo ever released or taken by a random person? Yeah...

That'd scare me more, honestly. Aliens might be chill, but the government will make you disappear if you fuck with their top secret shit.
