I think that the APC, DROPSHIP, and SULACO should be driveable in the video game. Even if the plot is set in a different setting, their should still be vehicles and ships that the player can operate. Just imagine operating the SULACO in 3rd person. Maneuvering the massive armor clad battleship in space while fighting to keep the peace between colonial factions competing with WEYLAND YUTANI for frontier drilling rights.

Which view do you like best? 1st or 3rd person view? I think that a RPG like this should be in 3rd person like Gears or War or Resident Evil. Obsidian should be able to create some cool, moody,future industrial, and dramaticly mindblowing environments with the PS3 and Xbox360 technology. Which Aliens environment do you like best? LV-426, or FURY 161? The techno industrial corridors of LV-426 should be cool. Personally, I like the gothic setting of FURY 161. Its "a world where the sun burns cold as ice and the wind blows hot as fire". Exploring the endless miles of abandoned Weyland installation would be cool.

Also, Do you think there should be an Alien 5 Starring Ripley? I posted my plot idea on Avpgalaxy.net under the news articles comments for (New Alec Gillis Interview), page 2, username - evironfuels. Its titled: QUEEN let me know if you like it.

Whats the sulaco?

Whats the sulaco?

 

I believe it's the ship in Aliens.

Aye, it's the CMC frigate that gets them to LV426.

 

Space combat could be very cool, but might divert developer time away from more worthy subjects. Unless something could be cannibalised from elsewhere. Keep in mind, also, that any kind of military vessel will be insanely expensive for an individual to own.

tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

That APC is a must have. That thing was cool in Aliens.

Don't know if the game should feature space combat, but vehicles are a clear part of the franchise.

 

You've GOT to be able to run over Aliens with the colonial marine battle tank.

 

And no mech-loader exoskeletons will make me an unhappy camper, too.

I,d see rather normal to use the apc tank somewhen in game but..., the Sulaco..., man, you have lost your cool.

:ermm:

The APC was a tough vehicle in Aliens. All of the weapons it had on it, too bad its down fall was the drive train.

Hopefully it'll have Mass Effect-style areas where you can drive vehicles and blow up aliens. :ermm:

Hopefully vehicles with flamethrowers so you can have crispy aliens. :ermm:

Battlefield Aliens... I sort of like that (but then, I am a BF1942 fan) :lol:

At which point we absolutly need a character to say "KILL IT WITH FIRE!".

"Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

FIX IT WITH FIRE!

"dad my shoelaces are untied."

FIX IT WITH FIRE!

Let's make it a capital ship simulator. Planets? The colonists are all dead anyways. Just nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

I think Obs'll make this the game ending just for you.

I think the e-mag pulse would be more dangerous for the bugs than the blast and over-pressure.

I would love to be able to walk around inside of ships that's for sure. I'm not really interested in flying them but I wouldn't mind having that feature.

Yea, MASS EFFECT was a good game. I like how you could walk around inside the NORMANDY (Space ship) and travel to differrent colonies. I hope the Aliens game will have a deep exploration which will add to the depth and storyline. Traveling to LV-426, Fury161, Earth, Gateway station, and etc.... will be an excellent addition to the game. When I was driving the APC in Mass Effect It looked like one of Sid Meads concept drawings of the original Aliens APC.
