Bishops Legs

[Xenomrph]

Personally I think it's a cool nod, and in my mind having Bishop's legs somewhere in the hangar bay makes sense. We didn't see them go out the airlock so I'm totally willing to accept they're sitting there, waiting for someone to find them. That and just finding a pair of (android) blood-soaked legs would just be creepy and add to the atmosphere.

I agree this is something we can overlook Mr. xeno. HH and the AP being still there..., that's another story, but well off topic ok.

The highly viscous nature of Bishop's internal fluids created much more friction than a less-viscous substance, thus increasing the severed legs' resistance to the vacuum of open space within the flight deck.  The remains did move, but the rate of their movement wasn't fast enough to exceed the necessary distance for ejection into deep space in the time that the airlock was open.

They also did a Super Mario style jump over the airlock too.

I always assumed they were his legs but looking closer it does look more like upper torso

It looks like it's a promotional photo, it's not like they can't move the legs somewhere else for the actual game. For a promo photo it's fine - it's got the airlock, the dropship, recognizable background material, and Bishop's legs. Rather than people spazzing out over their placement in the photo I think it would be more prudent to see how it's handled in the actual game and then start complaining.

Chill guys it`s just a game. And if vacume of space didn`t sucked out Ripley, I say the legs are clearly safe too.

You know what? No. I will not chill. Not even if you blast me with a freeze-ray will I chill. No.

His legs should be space debris.

No. Complain now. Get things fixed. Then the game is without said flaws and that much more enjoyable. KK?

I get the feeling it was placed there so it was less out of the way for the demonstration. Hopefully you will have to go searching closer to the rear of the dropship or somewhere in the hangar to find it. If other parties were on the Sulaco before the marines there is a chance that someone or something moved it to that location. Who knows.

Its my fault, i moved the legs. Sorry!

I will put them back when I am done.

I can understand that, bringing those sorts of things to GBX's attention means they might get addressed. I'm just saying that outright condemning the game as violently as some people have isn't exactly the solution. Point out problems, sure, just don't be a frothing sperglord stereotype about it.

There are ways of expressing your thoughts and opinions without hate.

Sorry sbout bishop's legs. My cat clawed him up.

[Chris!(($$))!]

Bishop was cut in half right next to the drop ship, the legs could have easily gotten caught up next to the dropship's landing gear.

[Xenomrph]

The queen also visibly threw his legs (and upper half) across the room when she pulled him in half, so with the turbulence of the open airlock they could have ended up pretty much anywhere.

Here's a refresher (in reverse, all I could find on youtube) for those who need a reminder:

This seems quite possible.

And completely unlike what we see in the photo.
