Just want to update everyone that round 4 of the "Share & Tweet" prize promotion is now live and that we are just a few votes shy of hitting our next milestone of 250 signatures!  Thank you, AVPgalaxy, and everyone who else has helped to support the cause!  Please continue to help us get the word out and make one last stand for A:CM!


*Special thanks to Hemicrania for his continued campaign images*

I would like to congratulate the winner of Round 4 of the "Share & Tweet" prize promotion and wish good luck to all those who enter into Round 5, who can win a chance at seeing the new Star Trek movie, courtesy of our friend and petition partner, the founder of the xenomorphic coalition, Da Bearded Xeno!  And now that we're at the point where we can start reaching out to the gaming media, we can look to take things to the next level, and have the push for more Bug Hunt and/or the SDK become too large to ignore! 

By the way, for anyone who is unfamiliar with the Bug Hunt horde mode in A:CM and doesn't understand what we're fighting for, Da Bearded Xeno has just made a new video showcasing why we want more of this content, and if you're an Aliens fan, why we believe you want more as well, even if you do not have a copy of A:CM yet and are waiting for it (and its DLC) to be discounted to a low price before giving it, or at least Bug Hunt, a chance.  Please see the following video for a sample of what we have found to be the best part of the game and something that is worth fighting for:




In addition, I would like to congratulate everyone, especially the fine folks here at AVPgalaxy, for helping us reach the milestone of attaining 250+ signatures!   :o


*special thanks to our very talented friend, hemicrania, for his collection of campaign images*

P.S.:  Let's not forget to thank Demiurge Studios for their contributions to Bug Hunt, and let them know that there is a demand for more content!  Demiurge seems to be very active on Facebook and even replied to the following Bug Hunt comment...

"Robin S.:  more aliens colonial marines dlc please.bug hunt maps do the fan base proud

Demiurge:  Glad you like it! We worked very hard on authenticity, particularly on Tribute.
"

I signed a while back.
Bug hunt is where this game really shines though, I wouldn't be against them just turning the MP maps into bug hunt maps.
Escape but with a bunch of bot Aliens as opposed to 4 human controlled aliens would be great

Dark Bladed Hunter

while my ACM game save data was mysteriously deleted from my 360 and I sold my copy of the game. I'll be happy to buy the game again if they added more content. I would personally love to see more of Furry 161 and more xeno content but that's just me.

UPDATE:

Hello again, everyone!  I am very pleased to announce that the petition has just received a major breakthrough!  Earlier today, Demiurge Studios, the principal developer behind Bug Hunt, reached out to the petition and are very receptive to the cause!   :o

Here is the post in its entirety:

"Hey Everyone, This is Josh [Glavin]. I was the Lead Designer on the Bug Hunt project here at Demiurge Studios. Today is my birthday and finding this petition is one of the best birthday gifts ever.

We love Aliens we loved working on this project and we would love to make more!

Keep playing, keep getting signatures and who knows what might happen!"


This is major, major news, and I would like to congratulate Moosh, as well as everyone else who has supported the cause, and helped make this possible!  The A:CM community has gone on for what feels like months without being able to have any real contact with the developers, so this is indeed huge news and is something to both celebrate and be proud of!  Most of all, by Demiurge reaching out and being favorable to the petition, this means that there is indeed hope, so I hope it encourages everyone to keep pushing hard and continue getting the message out there!

Just wanted to say thank you, JokersWarPig, for signing the petition and helping us make one last stand for A:CM!  I'm glad you enjoy Bug Hunt as well, and I definitely agree that it'd be a great idea to get more Bug Hunt, even if they just use existing assets and convert the existing Escape or Movie Map Packs.  This should help lower the development time and costs for one last wave content and make it much more feasible to attain.  Thanks for the feedback and I believe you may have just inspired an idea for a new petition-related video!  ;)

Glad to hear that you'd be willing to revisit the game if we were to get one last wave of content, Dark Bladed Hunter!  One of the things that's always been on my mind concerns what you just mentioned - Bug Hunt on Fury 161.  I think it'd be just really, really something to see the movie map pack for Fury 161 be expanded on and converted for Bug Hunt.  A lot of potential to have just an awesome atmosphere here, and get a location that should be just as epic as the "Tribute" map for Hadley's Hope!

Fury would be perfect for bug hunt! or maybe the W-Y bio weapons complex in Nightmare Asylum. Off topic but I just wish that we had a playable xeno version of bug hunt but It'll never going to happen 

PRJ_since1990

Honestly, I would love it if they made a map dedicated to LV-426, Alien style, where players could start on the Nostomo where it touched down and make their way towards the derelict. The final stand could be made inside the derelict in the control room with the space jockey. Would also be cool if they wanted to add options like turning on or off different Xeno-types. So you could have all Lurkers :)

Your signature and support is very much appreciated, Dark Bladed Hunter!  Each and every signature matters as we continue to try and have A:CM be retired with one last wave of fan-friendly content.  Thanks again!  ;)

Hi there, PRJ_since1990, and thanks for all the support you've continued to show the cause.  I am glad to see more ideas surfacing on how Bug Hunt can be made even better!  I like your idea about combining multiple maps (Nostromo movie map pack, Tribute Bug Hunt map, Single Player derelict), and the idea about different options, like turning off xeno-types and mercs too of course.  I think it'd be awesome for Bug Hunt to have the option of being nothing but warriors, lurkers, etc. which all scale in damage/life according to the wave level!  Very nice suggestion and, yes, like Moosh said, please share your ideas and thoughts with Demiurge at their message board or, better yet, their Facebook!  I think they are going to be very pleased to see the fans reaching out to them and showing them that there is still a lot of demand for more Bug Hunt!

Just wanted to update everyone that we have a new video on the way that should be posted sometime very soon.  Since we have already demonstrated the Bug Hunt gameplay video, we will be doing something different, which will hopefully serve as another reason why more Bug Hunt should be a very, very worthwhile goal for the community.

I would also like to remind everyone that even if you don't have video capturing capabilities, or graphic skills, please know that you can still help the cause by not only signing and sharing the petition, but by helping us try and get Sega on board by sending them messages as often as you can about wanting more Bug Hunt.

I am sending Sega a message every day, using different forms of contact, to help them get the message because, remember, we have 2/3 parties (Demiurge & Gearbox) on board and they are the only hold up now. So, if you could, please take the few minutes to reach out to Sega and make your voice be heard. Perhaps the best way to get the message across is to keep on creating tickets with their support team below, who will hopefully share our concerns with those who have decision-making power within Sega. You can submit your tickets to Sega by using the following link...

https://help.sega.com/anonymous_requests/new

I will be sure to include the link to create tickets with Sega's customer support in my signature from now on, that way it can help the community better focus our efforts on the last holdout to getting more Bug Hunt.

UPDATE:
Hi there, everyone!  As I had mentioned, a new video for the petition has recently been released, which helps demonstrate the type of potential there is with one last wave of Bug Hunt DLC by Demiurge Studios. 

Bug Hunt Map Suggestions:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0wIcsaLYoQ#
In other news, aside from gaining support from the developers (Demiurge & Gearbox), Moosh also reached out to Al Matthews from the film and was able to get his blessing too! 



At this point, the last holdout to attaining one last wave of content for A:CM is Sega.  As publisher, Sega is the one who has the power to authorize Demiurge Studios to release one last wave of Bug Hunt DLC.  With that being said, please help us get Sega's attention by reaching them at all the different contact points in my signature, and letting them know that you want more Bug Hunt DLC from Demiurge Studios, which can help ensure that A:CM is retired on a high note with one last wave of fan-friendly, fan-requested content.

By contacting Sega, and alerting Moosh of your contributions, you can even be entered to win the next prize being offered in the sixth round of our "Share & Tweet" prize promotion! 

Anyway, thank you again for your time, your interest, and your help.  With all the progress we've made, NOW is most certainly the best time to step up and make one last stand for A:CM!

You got Al Matthews blessing?? I mean, a like isn't a signature on the petition, but that's great nonetheless!! What about Biehn? Paxton? Anyone else from the cast?

A nice gesture by Al (Apone) indeed!  While not a signature per se, by him approving the comment and allowing it to be displayed on his page, he certainly helps in own little way by sharing the petition link with the rest of his FB followers. 

Although I have to watch what I say to help preserve any future surprises, I can tell you that I have it on good authority from Moosh that she is in the process of reaching out to other actors from the film as well!  The next order of business is going to be reaching out to the gaming media, that way we try to reach all the casual fans who still support the game, or at least Bug Hunt.  Getting the support from any other actors along the way, however, will be a fun and interesting way to keep momentum going for sure!

I'd say I'm surprised but I'm more impressed. After getting a cast member to approve having females in multiplayer it turned out well and we got it in the end. Lets just hope bug hunt and the SDK gets the same result :)
