Well i just think it should be cool if bob should have a mother, you know a queen, a huge badass alien, thats guarding the central hive or something. I know its not really possible to implemetn this in the game, but you could let the best alien be able to evolve one step further and become a queen ,and 2 be able 2 build errr i dunno, i was goping to say eggs, but this is a multiplayer game and i don't think players are going to be willing to wait for their turn to get born. Oh hell i dunno but it should be sweet if the aliens should have a boss, a super strong, big(?) alien, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD WE CAN'T LEAVE BOB AN ORPHAN, HE'S GOTTA HAVE A MOTHER! Oh yeah where do these aliens come from anyways, i mean how are they born?

    If we do a queen, we become way too much like Aliens™ and get the pants sued off of us (even though our aliens aren't insect-like)

    No clue about the alien backstory though. That hasn't come out yet.

    oh, i think i have to read the faq a bit more.
    oh well, you're right about the aliens part, but couldn't help wondering if it wouldn't be coll if there was a really huge alien, make it a king if you have 2, i just think it should be real fun, can you imagine a huge alien and all those marines cirkling around it firing with their puny machineguns while the king, elvis father of bob?, just squashes them.

    I handt thought about that. It would be cool to provide a final evolutionary form that was only obtainable by the leading scorer. A boss, as it were. His skills and inherently good class would make him one big meanie. Course, implementing a whole new class is a lotta work, so I wont be in tears if you don't. In a way, being the leading scorer is its own reward. Still, it might drive the aliens to extremely vicious. Everyone likes vicious aliens. Cept Marines . . . but they cant complain if bob tears out their vocal cords.

    And there's no way to make anything larger than what we have already. There is an engine maximum of three sizes only that you have to conform to.

    yeah i know , it wouldn't be fun anyways, cause the big one won't be able to go through doors, vents etc.
