How about a final boss fight between the last standing marine and the guy who designed Bishop (Bishop II) from the end of Alien3.  I've always wanted to snap his neck even though he already nearly lost his ear.

This guy was designer, not a warrior. Stupid idea.

Little tip, don't be rude to people for no reason. This isn't IMDB.

Yeah.  Looks like mommy still needs to teach baby some manners.

"Stupid idea" is a rude statement? Since when? I didn`t call him stupid so I see no point in beeing or not rude.

Srsly a boss fight would totally spoil the atmosphere of this game.  Not to mention the fact that in all likelyhood, even a queen Alien is not going to stand up to combined firepower from a handful of marines.  Especially if she's attached to an eggsack.  If I start seeing HP bars in this game, bad things are going to happen.

The fact that ppl would want linear level progression and boss fights reinforces my opinion that there are a whole shitload of A/P/AVP fans out there who should never, ever be listened to in terms of "what the fans want".

Instead of boss fights the game should just get traditionally harder as you go on.  Blowing Aliens out of airlocks in the absence of any weapon may be a cool idea.  A queen alien near the end of the game might be cool too (as long as there are no health bars involved).  Perhaps even a Metroid-esque ending where you have to blow up the final stage and return to your docking ship before the explosion would fit nicely somewhere too.

I kind of agree with not listening to "what fans want."  Because sometimes there are situations where fans (and not just of a the A/P/AvP universe) that don't know what they want until they get it.  Its like kids afraid of trying new foods.  You don't know what you like until you try it.  And sometimes it's all about the packaging that it comes it.  If the Newborn had been something cool, and not a creepy cancer monkey, I think people would have had no problem with it.  Just a possible example.

so in theory they shouldnt listen to the fans but they should listen to you?  :D

anyway i think once they meet a boss such as a queen (which i'm pretty sure she will be introduced in the game) i would want her to be with the drones so that other squad can beat the shit out of the drones while me( the character i'm controlling) and maybe one other marine trying to beat down the queen. there are millions of possibility which may or may not work.

eit: also if you look at game company like blizzard (one of the best pc game company) listens to the fans with the up comming starcraft 2. Thats how they keep changing the atmosphere, game engine, units and etc.

I'm sure they'll be A queen, if not a Jockey Queen or Jockey Aliens, with the CE mechanic in place these fights may be a little different than a generic "shoot the Alien, but now it takes longer cause it's a boss." You'll remember one of the BiA "bosses" was a Tiger tank MKIII. It was introduced properly and dispatched properly, with no break in the the story.
