<div class="IPBDescription">what alien to replace gorg</div> yay all my kharaa are all aliens now except that little pig called gorg, lets brainstorm of what could make a good gorg replacement
Why dont you just create a completly new alien species? The facefugger wouldnt look right as a builder... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

nah I go with daph's hiveling idea, it's logical and could be customised to suite the rest of the pack. Face hugger could work but spider would look better for george <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
wouldnt that be a little small though? <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->
The real problem is that unless someone can animate decently we have to stick with something that will fit the gorge animations. Now I <i>might</i> be able to get a face hugger to look ok but it would be a big pain in the **obscenity**. Can someone send me the facehugger model and I can see what I can do.
just gotta make the arachnid alil fatter, and its small, so im pretty sure itll do! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

so i have make a little pic of an maybe working A|ien gorge.
i know this is a gorge with alien head and alien tail and the spikes who aliens have on their back and tail.
But i thunk it would be cool, and a symply answer. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Darkbolt , the same idea, at the same time <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
i help ya <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
The thing is that having an alien be fat just doesn't look right in any of the concept sketches I've done. Hopefully I can jerry-rig the facehugger to look good.
Originally when I was going to do the model for the gorge, I was going to make it a "Hiveling" which would essentially just be a regular alien body (a little fatter to fit the gorge's hitboxes) with a smaller alien queen head.
Also, Facehuggers are a bad idea to replace the gorge. My points are below:
x. Facehuggers are supposed to be incredibly quick. The gorge is the slowest unit in the game. x. It's be impossible to fit the facehugger in the gorge's hitboxes without completeing distorting it. x. Facehuggers would have to be completely re-animated.
An alternate alien that I always thought would suit the Gorge is the small bug from Starship Troopers. They are the ones who carry the Brain Bug in the film.
I think I have a design that will work, it will take quite a bit of modelling and prolly take me a while but its solid and will fit everything. Someone e-mail me the queen model from avp2 and I can begin splicing models and skinning and all sorts of unholy rituals. REPEAT SOMEONE SEND ME THE QUEEN ALIEN MODEL FROM AVP2 I will work tirelessly until the pack is complete.(Except for the fact that I will still sleep late, hey you can't expect me to stop being lazy now can you?)

i thnk the facehugger is better for the skulk.
that will work.
