[Pred Killer]

Good idea man.

[Mustafuck]

Hey Ash, you replied to every single topic?, dude you rock

[Chris!(($$))!]

I am surprised I did not see this before. Nice idea Mustafuck. Haven't seen you here in a LONG time.

Lulz. 'Tis The Pred Killer now...

...Ash is still fine as always though.

[Chris!(($$))!]

Update:

-Droid skills section regarding the pheromone aura.
-Added the alien vision system.
-Runner: Added one more ability to make the runner more consistent with Its own introduction section.

Keep the ideas flowing.

I think It,s already good enough and more than completed, so I won,t be adding anything more unless others can come up with something interesting to add.

One thing this mode would obviously need is an atmosphere ala doom3, specially when the gigerplayer has molted the map atmosphere into pure pitch black, and the aliens being as enormous as they are too. I mean, I never had avp2 graphics and gameplay wise in mind when I came up with this idea (that would be ridiculously pathetic indeed), but something very similar to doom3 graphics.

I,ve been thinking on a tech-com noobmarine available for the choice instead of the sergeant (just like aliens can have a runner or 1 more warrior instead, It,s not recommended by any means, but they can go that, so marines could choose between a sergeant or a tech-com as well) plenty of new abilities such as placing sentry torrets and more, but I,m afraid that would imply camping, and I,m afraid I don,t like that just one bit.

Either way, I,d appreciate if you made a sticky "your ideas thread" where the people can post their own ones instead of doing your own thread for your idea. Chris and I got ours, so we could stick them in that new thread as a start while others come with their own, so that you can delete the our individual topics, and have that special topic for everyone,s ideas.

[Chris!(($$))!]

Yah. That could definitely be useful. If we had a thread like that where everyone could have one big post to build up all their ideas for the game. And maybe after a while we could show it to Gearbox.

Long day-off for me boys. I feel inspiration overtaking me (my wife is out with her parents the whole fucking day, and people, this really helps trust me). I have had lots of new ideas in mind for the alternative MP mode for a while, and I think It's time for me to try and add them. I'm still trying to make them fit in the old idea since one of them, specially this one has forced me to completely redesign the way the marine team work along..., I'm talking about the new weapon specialist marine unit, that will be an alternative leader to the all mighty and always an example of leadership to his "kids" marine sergeant, who BTW is also getting some new abilities that will make of him and his unquestionable leadership a force to be reckoned with, inspiring his "kids" even more. Also, expect a lot of new and cool content for each alien unit that will definitely boost their appealing. Expect the giger-alien to be even more "Giger" (xD) and the always vicious and extremely dangerous alien warrior to be even more deadly than before. Important changes might be applied to the praetorian leader plus new abilities. Same goes to the alien runner.

I hope to finish this "idea 2.0" and post It as whole this very day, although I'm not sure wheter I'll be able to do It or not due to some little problems I have found when trying to add them, plus the ones that still need to be completely made since they are still far from completion.

I hope this new content doesn't dissapoint you and is ready to be posted for your reading pleasure today or tomorrow maximum.
