Post by: Darkness on Dec 10, 2009, 01:18:32 PM

MCV have confirmed details of the European editions of Aliens vs. Predator. The game will launch in Europe on Friday, February 19th and there will be three editions. Standard, Survivor and Hunter. The Survivor Edition comes in a steel case and features a code for downloadable multiplayer maps, which will be available post-launch. The Hunter Edition will also contain the maps, as well as a posable facehugger model, a Weyland Yutani sleeve badge and a 3D lenticular postcard. No details on prices as of yet.

Oh wow, my favorite parts of that preview..."During the tutorial you're taught how to use your massive tail to knock out the overhead lights" (WOOT best part of AvP 1 was knocking out the lights! lol) "you can create a distraction by mimicking a human voice, calling one soldier away from the other" (that's just awesome and much overdo)...and of course "Expect to see the game released on February 16"

Wow! Epic. I want that Hunter Edition.   :D    Will they be releasing these editions (or anything like 'em) in the US? No specific launch date for the US yet, either, huh? I'm chomping at the bit here. Need info! *drools*   ;)

My bad. Didn't know Gamespot mentions a February 16th US release date in their preview. lol Now... what about those editions!   ;D

Can you also buy Survivor or Hunter edition in store? Or is it only available at pre-ordering?

Post by: R Lar on Dec 11, 2009, 08:22:23 AM
Looks great! Hopefully It comes to North America.   Too bad they're not as rich as like Infinity Ward or something, then maybe they would package a motion tracker like Modern Warfare 2 packaged NV Goggles, lol.  Also like somebody else said... if the normal edition doesnt get extra maps, will multiplayer be chaos?

Post by: TommyKing5 on Dec 11, 2009, 09:28:19 AM
I don't really like the hunter edition much, survivor is good. Well, the only reason why I don't like the hunter is that i have to import it, because I live in Australia...    :(

It looks as if I'll avoid getting the survivor edition, damn facehugger in the box will creep me out.  Good deals, however.
Title: Re: AvP European Editions Announced [Updated #2]
Post by: Shardik on Dec 11, 2009, 04:59:44 PM
Thats pretty brutal that they are releasing a standard addition that will not contain the mutiplayer levels that the other editions have. Because this usually fragments gameplay, most hardcores are likely goin to buy the editions with the extra mutliplayer levels, god knows i will likely do so. But there will probably be a fairly large majority who will not and thus this retail gimic will fragment the gamers who play this game to a certain degree.

Post by: juano on Dec 11, 2009, 05:06:45 PM
im for sure gonna get the hunter pack, kinda bumbed out though, you dont get to start out as a face hugger, is that some kind of joke? i can only hope that it is indeed a joke!

Post by: Gort Pred on Dec 11, 2009, 06:18:23 PM
Nice a Wayland badge, cause everyone wants to be known for working for the people who are responsible for killing Ripley's crew lol  but seriously I want the survivor edition

Is that hunter pack only for 360?!! i was intended to get the pc version but that would suck if its just 360 :(
Title: Re: AvP European Editions Announced [Updated #2]
Post by: Ferazel on Dec 12, 2009, 03:31:54 AM
Yeah, ditto on the call for PC versions. I'm going to get a DirectX11 card for this game. I want my facehugger to sit on my monitor while I eat people's faces!

"a code for downloadable multiplayer maps, which will be available post-launch." So all who buy the standard edition are f%@*ed?"  And people who have the multiplayer maps will have less people to play with.

I reckon it will be released here in oz, just with some alterations because we usually get censored versions of good games anyways.

Post by: Akarou on Dec 13, 2009, 12:48:13 AM
My bet is that the game will cost about £55 - £60 here in the UK for the Hunter edition. Anything more than £60 for it and I'll just buy survivor edition as I'm only after the maps and the facehugger!

To all Aussies!!! IGN has posted an article about how the classification board has now opened a discussion board relating to an R18+ classification for Australia, you can read about the for and against and either support or not support. Everyone must do this so we can enjoy R rated games too!!!
Title: Re: AvP European Editions Announced [Updated #2]
Post by: Hicks_0998 on Dec 14, 2009, 11:47:22 PM
Yeah mate i cited 10 different sources as to why we need the rating and sent it to the email addy provided so hope we get the support we need for it.  And remember: if you dont vote for it, youre going to hell when you die.

guys on channel 7 "sunrise" ran a story about the R18+ rating, possibly for the new ban to AvP.  Finally it is getting national attention!!    ;D  
Title: Re: AvP European Editions Announced [Updated #2]
Post by: TommyKing5 on Dec 16, 2009, 12:59:39 PM
So what do we actually have to do? Write a report to why there should be a R18+ rating and send it off?
