Now that the game has been released and the bulk of what remains seems largely focused on tweaks to the balance, optimization and general polishing, I want to go let my inner fanboy out and start a discussion on the idea of a single player story mode dlc using the same engine etc.

I know I know, the game has just been released, but I can't help but wonder what is next from UWE and want to say I'd pay for a dlc that enhances the story and fleshes the world you guys have created.

    i honestly think a true single player experience is out of the question, there's so much involved with the scripting of things. Getting some basic AI for say, aliens that can be used in a side co-op style mode seems more doable. We already sort of see it in the hallucinations with fades able to blink for example.

    A tutorial campaign based on or around the "Six days in Sanjii" story would be a fantastic thing to experience.

    What if there was a.. multiplayer campaign? If that makes any sense. Instead of ordinary single player campaign missions. It would be a 6v6 linear story line. Something with a story. No dialog or anything, just a bit of backstory before you actually attempt the "mission".
    You'd have to complete each mission, in order, to be able to advance to the next level. Marines could start on one side or this linear story line with like, landing on a space station. Aliens would start at the other end of this story line with the hive waking them up and "OMG THE MAIN WHATEVERTHEHELL IS UNDER ATTACK."

    Marines main objective through the storyline would be to clear out this station, the alien objective would be to force the marines off from the station.

    I don't know, the idea could probably use some refining. :p

    Otherwise there's always modding ;)
