Isn't their spore bullshit like 1000x deadlier than Facehuggers? How are they an "inferior organism" to the true xenomorphic?

Stop putting more thought into the movie than the director and writers.

Who said they’re an inferior organism? Quote the exact line.

if they had worn their helmets, the spores wouldn't have been able to infect them. In contrast, the facehuggers have been shown to be able to break through helmets.

it's a bit too volatile. If David had happened to be human he would have been BTFO by the spores just like the others did.
The egg system is much better and more manageable. It's like a timebomb. just put an egg on a ship and wait a couple weeks and everyone is dead.

They didn't seem very strong. Like if it doesn't catch you unaware and bite your head off they're really easy to shoot to death. The proper xeno is a tank.

Logic is racist and sexist

Then why did the woman washing her face just stand there and not reach for her gun?

even better question is why Ridley Scott showed the same shot of her decapitated head in the water three times

/thread

Actually all the spore shit including the way the xenos bust out of the hosts is lifted straight from an early unused script for Alien 3 (written by the scifi novelist William Gibson) so in a way they are more advanced form of the xenomorph, or more precisely ware supposed to be.

It was inconsistent. In the field, they're pumping bullets into them left and right with seemingly no effect. Then later Captain Spaghetti kills one with a couple rounds.

>unused scripts

Literally no different than fanfic. Hicks and Newt were alive in a few of those scripts. That doesn't mean they're still alive in the Xenoverse.

What he's saying is that it's clear that they borrowed an idea from an older unused script, and that idea involved this new species being a superior form of the xenomorph. The rest of the unused script may be uncanon but it seems like this species is.

Nope. Borrowed ideas don't bring the context with them. Alien "borrows" stuff from the original O'Bannan story, that doesn't mean there's an ancient pyramid on that moon full of xeno eggs.

Frankly, I'd bet money Scott never even read those unused drafts.

Prometheus and Covenant are two fucking mistakes who would never had to be made.

the real kino was supposed to be ALIEN ENGINEERS but Scott wanted a trilogy who make no sense.

I was just pointing out the reason for the inconsistency, I wasnt implying that anything is canon.

>that doesn't mean there's an ancient pyramid on that moon full of xeno eggs.

Pretty sure Prometheus implies Engineers had previous contact with Earth and the Christ allegory in the mural heavily implies some form of very close contact with humanity. The moon pyramid could still be something that exists, we just don't know about it...yet.

>it’s more effective because it effects androids
That’s dumb

This is precisely why it's technically a superior form. You can now use Xenos to wipe out native species of a planet, send down androids to start building the infrastructure, and then put humans on the planet once the androids have made it livable and the aliens have disappeared. The "Alien Queen" form of the Xenos with the eggs are more of a "total war"/"scroched earth" sort of tactic.

The real ultimate weapon is landing the spacecraft and initiating rolling mode.

Ur a fucking retard

They seemed much more virile, but probably not effective at everything else. David seemed more interested in creating something more complex and deadlier in the long run.
Also keep in mind (if you're so inclined) that Ridley's version of the xeno uses a different canon ruleset than Cameron's.

>How are they an "inferior organism" to the true xenomorphic?
Because the xenomorphs were spoopy in a really good movie that spawned one of the most unnecessary franchises in the history of cinema, and it would be too much of a risk to just make a weird movie about a gay android with a genocidal bent.

It doesn't imply anything. It flat-out says humans were created by the Engineers.

In the original story, there are no eggs or anything on the ship, they find them in the pyramid and the ship with the engineers is sending a warning.

neither forms affect androids though
Doesn't the egg form still require DNA from it's host?

David wasn't satisfied because he wanted an -exact- solution that also adhered to his views of beauty and utility. He was fascinated by the neomorph but it was nothing more than a random accident.

>dem white xenobois ain't got nuffin un dem real street niggamorphs
- me

This. Once again one of the biggest flaws of Prometheus and Covenant was the blatant lacking of helmets. I get they both state in the movies the air is breathable, but I doubt any explorative team ever would take off their helmets on a foreign planet

>How is a spore based system inferior to a seed
Theres nothing stated that makes it considered inferior. A real life comparison could be made to the development of plants, which early on were spore based but gymnosperms and angiosperms later found that seeds were also effective reproductive methods. But the development of seeds in some plants didn't kill off spore based plants, they still exist.

But nothing happened as a result of that in Prometheus

In Prometheus, it's well understood it was fucking stupid. In fact, the crew says don't take off your helmets. It's no more dumb than bringing the hugger on board in Alien.

Covenant, though, was flat out retardation.

Why not just use some androids to wipe out the natives? Androids in the alien universe built solely for fighting should be absolute monsters.

At least Prometheus tried to explain away the studio-mandated lack of helmets.

In Covenant they didn’t even bother talking about they just ran straight off the ship in military fatigues.

You know what would really mess a planet up?

If they dropped in 12 foot tall alien gfs for everybody and then the planet went extinct in one generation because nobody would want to touch their own species's roasties anymore

Haha imagine how scary that would be if that happened

Facehugger system is a more guaranteed way for reproduction. Facehuggers unlike spores are alive and can seek out hosts themselves if something nears. Spore system needed more than just something coming near, it had to directly disturb the spore pod, then had to stay close by for the spores to slowly float into a host or had to directly inhale the spores like a retard, both of which are less guaranteed to happen. Spore based system was also more detrimental to the host, infected individuals showed extreme symptoms not long after initial contact like fever, dizziness, vomiting, etc. Putting your host in a vulnerable state like that so quickly isn't good hurts the ability to spread, and other organisms will likely avoid contact with the host (if not retarded). Facehugger system was less intrusive to the host's health up until the chestburster is developed, Kane showed almost no symptoms aside from feeling very hungry until maybe 1 minute before the chestburster did its thing. That insemination period allows for the host to bring the organism closer to other prey and away from possible sources of competition.

Needs big boobs

if you're going to ''''edit'''' your shit post like the faggot you are, at least include some paragraphs in your wall of text next time

Boobs can be nice, but big thighs and hips are better

Why not both?

I only cared about it all being greentext and the post quote fucked, sorry bud. Also

Seriously where the fuck are they taking this franchise? the movie starts and ends at the same point, nothing advances

How would the sex even work though

Can confirm Hicks and Newt are not on the roster of eithet Xenoverse or Xenoverse 2.
