Things that you don't want to see in A:CM

[OFP Marine]

I'm not opposed to bringing more life back from the original Aliens movie. Have data logs with some of the voices with the original cast characters (hicks starred in a red alert game, just rip off his audio!). Other cool things would be lockers with names from the Sulaco or coming across some of their gear like a piece of one of the colonial marine's armor (evidence that you ARE in the world of the movie). The first Halo game had a reference on a poster board in the main ship with a note that read "Lost cat, answers to the name of Jonesy", excellent reference to the movie.

Seeing how this is a thread about what I DON'T want to see, I suppose I should make a few mentions: I agree no more crazy looking aliens. I don't need to see the Kenner "panther" or "rhino" alien that I played with when I was like seven. And while I know it's a work of science FICTION, I'd like some realism. If there are four aliens clawing at me, I don't want to be able to escape. Anything that is large enough to support it's body weight with claws on metal could probably take me out at close range easily (as in the movies). We are humans, not Master Chiefs. I understand that new weapons will likely be in there, I just hope they don't have anything too out there.

Thanks for reading.

yeah mate I concur, nice wording there

What I don't want, well I have to agree with the "action figure" aliens for sure. Flying dropships wouldn't be good, granted they are nice, but Sulaco only had 2 aboard. And none of this "insta-heal" crap. If I'm injured, its going to take me some time to heal(or bandage myself up at least) could go quicker if a teammate is healing u.

Unrealistic wounds: If my bio-monitor is going crazy (heart rate up) and my health is below say 40%, there is no way I can sprint as fast a my squadmate who is full health, which requires the team to protect their injured men(or women).

Turkey shoots: I don't want to jump on a mounted weapon and start mowing down hundreds of aliens in a open field or cramped corrider. Granted sentry turrets did get this in Aliens but there were reasons for it. If they do this it has to be with limited ammunition and because I beleive that this is the only way these nightmares can get me and every shot has to count.

Zombies- 'nuff said.

Unable to injure aliens and fade-away bodies/damage-I want to be able to shoot these aliens and blow limbs off if i'm aiming off target. Let the game tell you in a not so suble way: shoot to kill u idiot. And if they are injured, do u really think thats going to stop them? And please don't fade the bodies away, especially after a lengthy battle. I want to see how many tried (and failed hopefully) Also there IS going to be acid and bullet holes and flame marks everywhere after a fight, LEAVE IT! adds character

Malfuntioning andriods- happened in the first movie, was fixed by the second. Don't You Dare.

well theres my "dont screw this up please" list from me.

I agree how ever I think a malfuntioning android could add some different type of play, imo

[Bigapps17]

I think a malfunctioning driod could be a QTE and would be pretty fun!

And please don't fade the bodies away, especially after a lengthy battle. I want to see how many tried (and failed hopefully) Also there IS going to be acid and bullet holes and flame marks everywhere after a fight, LEAVE IT! adds character

I didn't think of that! That's a good idea! Although they might have it cause if you kill an alien, then the acid would eat through the floor, so the body would fade away in a sense! lol

I only liked the first two movies, but as part of the story line for A:CM I wouldnt mind seeing the prison planet in the game...you are part of a rescue team investigating. Correct?. Although I think Alien3 ruined the story killing off Hicks and Newt. In my mind the series ended at Aliens.
I dont want to see anything from that last movie, although the timeline wouldnt allow for it anyhow.

How about being able to rescue the cacooned Marines from Aliens.Apone,Hudson,Wierzbowski,Deitrich,Burke. I know its far fetched, but I think it would be cool. Id like to see Marines being able to wield doors shut to slow the Aliens. major use of the trackers and shoulder lamps. I just finished Dead Space 2 and the ambiance,shadows and lighting were great. You needed the the flashlight on the end of your rifle to navigate in many areas. NO PREDATORS.

Love the Sulaco Idea.

i really dont want to see predators,or space jockies,but i want a vs multiplayer type like a game mode in avp 2 called extraction,where 12 or so marines have to get to the apc or dropship and bug out,i always thought that was fun,also,no human/aliens hybrid,that was dumb as fuck (pardon my french),please god no ridiculous wepaons like doom's bfg,and at least 1 driving mission,where you escape in the acp,and have a mission in the space jocky's ship,that would be cool,and lastly,no tureet sequences,that would be stupid,hope gearbox listens,oh yeah,please have strong language,its not the same without someone saying "fuck this!!!" when aliens attack
