Pred-alien Questions

Post by mizolo » 07 Feb 2018, 01:24

Well, knowing that there's pred aliens ... I kinda wanna know like ... in full detail what they do.


Pounce?
Spit?
Screech?
Stomp?
Charge?
Gas artillery?

they never happen because capturing a pred alive is next to impossible and/or more trouble than its worth most of the time

Ancient hunter+, as others said

They don't regen normally so they just use corpses for that, have incredible damage of something close to a rav, really fucking quick in both speed and pounce, and a shittons of health, but have no immunity to flames and explosives.

Although you have to ask yourself if its fun for the pred to be tackled for nearly half a hour just so he can become a predalien because aliens really wanted one.

Last time i saw a pred-alien the server shat itself and disconnected half the players on at the time, the pred-alien being one of them so it died. Half an hour of waiting well spent.
I play "Mudder Plantagenet" and that's it, no fancy quotes or anything.

Pred alien usually ends up being fun for the round, if and only if other preds are still alive. From what I've seen the marines AND the predators make a sorta gentlemen's agreement to hunt the beast down before it kills every living thing ever

Does the predalien age? Does it burst out as that cute lil sweet larva or does it show up as a predalien immediately?

I'm also curious about that abomination, i only got to saw one and it was fast as fuck

They surely worth the effort, as long as the same predator that bursted plays the role or a very experienced xeno player. Other than that, most of the times they'll go rambo and die. They're powerful true but not inmortal, concentrated fire kills anything and anyone.

they are as powerful as Ancient Ravagers, but more health less regen rate, but yeah ancient ravager is easier to get than chest bursting a predator.

Predaliens are the unholy bastard of ravagers and ancient hunters but somehow even worse. Thing is actually getting a predalien is as easy as trying to fall down a flight of stairs with grace, If they aren't immediately plasma castered into next week by the remaining predators they are able to pretty easily tear just about everything a new backside, Predators included.

Also the larva are cute and chubby lil' murderbeasts.

And that's why as a xeno if you manage to get an abomination, You guard the fuck out of it until you confirm preds are dead as fuck

Also, since tackle rework, You can lose a big number of sisters trying to keep the predo down, last time we managed to get a predalien we legit lost 1 ravager, like 3 t2s and lots of runners trying to keep the pred from escaping or killing itself

I think i know which predator you're talking about, was this predator running about without a mask and got ambushed by a Carrier? We lost atleast 3 runners, a ravager and a carrier at the very least.
