what do you guys think of a Queen Mother event?

Post by NeverLoseHope » 22 Sep 2018, 13:18

I think it would be interesting to have a queen mother event, you guys seem to know a lot from the comics so i think there would be mid difficulty implementing her into the game lol.
Well my idea for this is, this event will be rare, not too rare but it'll occur from time to time and when it does all players will be marines and as for the xenos will be AI.
all tier 1s are mature, tier 2s are elders and tier 3s are ancients but somewhat small in number because the queen mothers subordinates are suppose to be the toughest of any hive but not too tough for us to all get slaughtered at round start lmao.

Plot: Years after the events of USS Almayers encounter with the newly discovered alien species, the USCM station on a planet inhabited by numerous alien lifeforms, their goal is to clean the planet of these aliens and establish an colony, little do they know that the danger that they went face to face with years ago is nothing comparable to what their about to face now, the marines are tasked with dealing with hordes of aliens each getting slightly worse than the last, each horde they defeat they will have to advance in defense in order to get closer and closer to the Queen mothers hives, however this task will be difficult and sometimes impossible unless the marines are powerful enough to defeat the queen mothers elite guard (a ton of ancient tier 3s (Ravager, Praetorian mainly), i know something but not too much about the orbs the queen mother is rumored to reside in but i do know a few things about her telepathic abilities and her abilities to communicate with humans, she is obviously super strong too but i cant even imagine how she would be like in combat in the game XD.
What the queen can do to help her hordes in the fight against the marines: we all know the queens screech is open, but imagine a queen being able to stun marines with a screech from the other side of the map just sitting from her hive.. yeah, this will occur once a few times every horde and the admins should be the ones to trigger it, the queen mothers pheromones are also immensly powerful the admins can also decide which one she emits and it'll be considerably stronger than that of any ordinary queens.

if the marines fail to defend a horde they will be beaten back a line of defense that is recoverable but if they fail to defend against all hordes they will be beaten back to the outpost AKA their last line of defense AKA where they'll all die.
Yeah pretty much the goal is to defeat all of the hordes of the queen mother and keep advancing until you finally have to defeat her in her own hive which will be the toughest task of the event.

what do you guys think?

Xenos AI? Deadly in Close combat, becouse they don't have to aim, but a simple barricade will fuck them up.

They are actually very balanced. The difference is ya get marines who think they can rambo a xeno and when they die, they get all salty about it.Mizari 10/12/2018, Xeno mutators

Well, so like an ordinary round with players? In that case it can just be like this, two queens are active except one of those queens is the queen mother and she can not leave the hive she can only assist her daughter and her grand children. It's hard to explain lol
