    If ever there was a need for a reminder of Nem's power, this post is it.

    Don't mess.

    On topic: it'd be pretty cool to have some kinda special evolution deal, but I won't cry if there isn't one.

    All the ridiculous stuff sounds really fun. But I highly doubt it'll make it in, unless it's an occasional thing. Like say over Christmas all the Heavies are dressed in Santa suites, or maybe the Onos in Santa suit. Or maybe when it's one of the dev's birthdays everyone gets to wear party hats <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />.

    Sorry to sound all unhappy. But I was hoping for a serious post from at least a majority. Does nobody here truly care to think up something that might be representable? Or is it all just a big joke...

    Noone jokes where gorge rushes are involved. Especially to Benny Hill music.

    I loled by the mere thought of it.

    But seriously, there's only one Thing you could pull off: Different Textures, pretty much like the black vs green Armor

    Could always just throw blackish skins on the aliens aswell ?

    If anyone remembers the fade skin pack they'll know what I mean.

    check my thread on the issue of telling the aliens apart:

    I like the idea of the Aliens being colour tinted according to their position in the Alien league table. The highest scoring Aliens could be lighter in colour for example. That way you could see at a glance who are the good players and the worst. :-)

    I really think they should also give some diffrent texture for skulk P:



    But it would be way easier to say "I would like the special skin to be like.." when we don't even know if the skulk is already super cool with black carapace.. we only got that tiny glimpse from the teaser and we don't even know if that is the actual skulk or not! P:


    But if it isn't already, yeah, black carapace and maybe some other changes would be awesome! :3
  • KalabalanaKalabalana Join Date: 2003-11-14 Member: 22859Members
    it would be cool if there could be random changes in game, like some aliens are bigger/smaller, longer legs, larger tail, random scars, wrinkles, etc

    Yes but if you do such a thing to the Aliens, you have to offer something comparable for the Marines don't you?
  • VyshusVyshus Join Date: 2005-06-13 Member: 53826Members
    Can't believe nobody suggested this yet, but how about a custom hive sight color. Instead of the normal white, how about blue, green, purple, etc, etc...

    Obviously the color while you're under attack would still be red, but I think it would be a good way to show an alien who bought SE.

    Seems like the ideas in this thread keep getting more and more complicated. Stick with the awesome eye color idea and be done with it.

    How is changing the little circle thing for the hivesite on your alien complicated?

    what this do? why different color? etc pp.

    He has a Point there and it's irritating to some People.
    We have to see how Alieneyes act in the dark, but I think orange glowy like the Teaser-Onos for Standard and something mirroring a mad State (orange Veins on a Blood Red Eye?) would be a good Thing

    I should probably re-upload it now that they've increased the bitrate. Of course, even the original file I have isn't high quality.

    Go Faster stripes on Skulks, Lerks.

    Red ribbon for Gorge.

    White tie for Fade.

    Turn Signals on Onos.
