Q&A with Rebellion

[Predboy]

Well here's mine. Hope it gets asked.

Will the jumping for the predator change?

Its annoying how you have to aim everywhere to jump. All my friends agreed on that too.

[Master]

Compareing Alien to tape worm is simplification and not adiquate at all. Tape worm just lives in hosts intestines. Not taking any of it's characteristics and not joining with it's blood system etc.                As i showned earlier there are losts of ideas to involve Newborn like creatures in game. And what's the big deal? You don't like it? Now you'd have the ability to shoot it and watchit die.

[predatorfandrc90]

agreed with master one question id like to know is if the predalien will be in the game will it be played off like in avpr or will it be played of like in the past avp games and if it is the avpr model will it eventually turn into a predqueen.

If they don't release a SDK, the game will die within a year.
Like FEAR 2 project Origin.
SDK is most important to keep the game community alive (new maps, mods, skins, etc.)
Without it... adios amigos!

If you already have their money in the back, no reason to care about community anything.

Odd..since they have stated they plan on releasing a lot of stuff like DLC and such...odd. Never seen a mention of a source development kit..but..who knows.

They have said there won't be no SDK, server files or anti-cheating mechanisms.
And as far as I know, both DLC's were just some new maps. 

Tey could throw in more weapons, modes, vehicles (if included) or types of enemies. Heck they could expand the single player. Its up to them what they want to do.

Of course, they can do what they want. But you can release DLC for only so long. Releasing an SDK means new content for years to come. I very much doubt they will release any DLC in 2011, 2010 if your lucky.
I just hope AvP 3 doesnt go down that road.

Hey duys,

My question is how long roughly will each campaign be? I mean if a player has a preferece for one character out of the three (alien, predator and marine) , will that player still get a decent amount of gameplay from that one campaign?

Well some games continue to get DLC support. If the game has a good install base then sure its going to get supported for years to come. Im surprised at how much Burnout PAradise has been supported since launch..its crazy.

you can do regular jumps. didnt look very high but it can be done.

Yeah, but it's stupid how you have to aim whenever you want to travel to long distances. I would like to jump very high without having to freakin aim with some kind of cursor.

[Corporal Lewis Hicks]

yeah thats true it cant be in the game for one because it was a freak accident that happened .and also there was only one of its kind and ripley killed that one anyway. so it wont be in avp well i dont think it will be?

Not only was it was a freak accident that happened, it was a freak incident that shouldn't have happened. Scientists had (presumably) Ripley's blood and I'll be damned if I know how they produced mutants they did. When you have a tapeworm it will NOT nest itself into your DNA and an alien emrio should be no different.

also another good point. so you are agreeing that it will not be in avp 3?

when an alien embryo is inplanted in a host it assimalats the host dna during gestation(hence the dog alien) the reason the queen in alien ressurection was more human was do to the cloning pocees on of its host(and its self) all weyland yutani or any one else would have to do to create a newborn  is clone a human host of a queen embryo(well the embryo is still inside)so it could be in avp3

you make a good point my friend but i just dont think it will be in avp3 coz the story has nothing to do with the humans trying to make a new born or some sort of mutant and it was just a one off freak incident that only happened because ripleys clone

I guess it would be best if we got both SDK and DLC. 
However if they had to choose between the two, SDK is a better decision in my opinion.
Then its either spending a month doing one DLC and be done with it, or spend that time making the SDK and after that members of the community will spend their time doing many months worth of work.

Will any characters from the Alien universe cameo in the game?

Ash, Bishop, Morse, Jones the Cat?

Vehicles would be awesome only for humans though, If they had a big enough map to put on the Dropship and APC that would be so awesome.
