Which would you rather be? #1

[lunchboxx]

I would rather be the alien, because of the simplicity of their existence....
or the predator because of their unique culture centered around rite of passage....
or the alien because of their amazing physical abilities and biological perfection....
or the predator because of their kickass equipment and weapons....

CLEAN UP ON ISLE 12!!!!     

but on-topic:

i would go for the predator. they are alot like the samurai, who i love, because of the way of the warrior, and their code of ethics, and honor system.

so yeah, pred all the way.

aliens are like a bunch of bees..................and i hate bees, i'm allergic.

Wrong.

[Predboy]

Predators simply because they'll kick the alien's ass.

Gotta love how everyone else has had, so far, the sense not to mention who would win in a fight during this thread.

[Celtic_Hunter]

well 1vs1 an predator wins vs an alien.Harder on predalien.But predators arent really scared by one alien whats bad is that aliens in SP even in MP usually dont have chances vs plasma and in SP not even in meele.Well 1v1 a predator will win.But aliens tend too come in numbers but they fail sometimes i beated many times 3 aliens in multiplayer with good strafing and meele.A disc and rest 2 with combi.It aint that hard.I bet on pred

We're not talking in-game; we're talking in-fluff, or in-universe.

It's a really touchy topic here and it can get really heated. We shouldn't really touch it.

[Celtic_Hunter]

The humans lol they alkways win and preds and xenos die .But i bet a team off well skilled preds can kill a hive

I have my own thoughts on the matter but now is not the time nor the place. See my quote above.

Wrong.

how am i wrong?

alien = bee = bug

alien hive = bee hive

alien colony = bee colony

alien queen = queen bee

etc
etc

and tbh, i never was good with the aliens game wise. and i rally am allergic.

You didn't prove anything. Throwing around a bunch of comparisons is not a basis for evidence.

Given how independent Aliens can be, not to mention the traits we've seen in individual Aliens unrelated to their hosts, they qualify as insects about as much as Predators do.

[DoomRulz]

They don't live the same way. Aliens (as depicted by Cameron) are slaves to the Hive. They don't go out and hunt like a Predator does. They only take prey (it seems, anyway) if it's close by, and easily obtained. But they won't go across planets seeking new hosts.

[MadassAlex]

None of what's in your post has much foundation, though.

1. Their relationship to the Hive isn't very clear. Whether they're instinctually bound to its servitude or not, Aliens show a powerful capacity to work alone anyway. In fact, every film but ALIENS basically shows that they work more effectively alone than in groups.

2. Of course they don't hunt like a Predator does. What a Predator does is sport; what an Alien does is survival. This means that they hunt based upon economy of energy, unlike the Predator's hunting habits which are superfluous when taking survival into account.

That said, bees don't hunt. They collect nectar.

Aliens collect hosts.

[lunchboxx]

i was not proving anything at all, i know all about the alien stuff, i'm just compairing them to bees alot like vasquez did in aliens. i am just not a alien fan, plain and simple.

and i really am allergic to bees. 

[Oooodz]

I'd go Predator. Out of all those vision modes theres gotta be at least one that see's through womens clothes
