The Facehugger

You better be a 25+ year old woman and not another sexually "repressed" teenager male.

Resistance: Fall of Man did a thing where you shake the sixaxis controller to shake whatever it was off you. I think that's a good way to do it on console, but fatties don't want to shake their arms.

Also face huggers should essentially black out the screen when attached.

I think a system like the hands in Blood is a pretty good idea. They will obscure the screen and drain your health, you have to mash the action button to throw them off

If you make the protagonist wear a helmet then the gameplay could be making the screen dark and having time to shake it off before it breaks said helmet and you die from it or oxygen lost. You could also have the helmet have HP so if you aren't careful and looking out for them then they'll slowly chip away.

3 is so bad, lmao

Okay I have like 3 ideas for how to do the facehugger mechanic in a game.

1) After being facehugged you revive at your last checkpoint, but you have to deal with more 15% more enemies, 50% would be the max. You can reset this counter by finding an item or by dying more than 7 times.

2) You get facehugged, revive at the last checkpoint but you have a time limit before you die. You have to find an item which deparasites you. You cannot finish the level while being parasited. Speedrunners are going to cry.

3) You have to find the chestburster that popped out of you and kill it. If you don't kill it in time then you have to fight an elite mob. You cannot finish the level.

even 3 fans know this isn't correct

Did you actively try to come up with the worst ideas imaginable?

Just do Dark Souls mechanics. Except it spawns a Xenomorph instead of a bloodstain. ezpz.

Are you actively trying to shun me for being an imaginative fa/tg/uy and not a jealous faggot like you?

You're right but zoomers who masturbate to halo wont see it. Probably don't even know the assembly cut exists or that Goldenthals score is one of the best of the decade. Baboons.
Resurrection for ps1 handled it in a cool way, half baked but cool.

true

you wish cameron babby. go wank on your happy family story lol

Trust me, we know the assembly cut exists.

It's sad how every game doesn't do the chestburster scene. Resurrection gives you that time limit before you die, but there's no way to stop it before the chestburster pops up and runs away.

1 and 3 aren't great but 2 could work. Don't know if you even need to wake up at the last checkpoint.

The problem is that face huggers are instakill things where you can't fight back once they attach. Imo, you can remove the insta kill mechanic, but you still need to punish the player for letting them get caught off-guard. Easy way to do that is make the player struggle or suffer after they've removed one.

Maybe make it make it like a visual things auditory thing so you cant see or hear well for a while. Severity could increase depending on how long the face hugger was attached. Could have a medicine mechanic, but think you'd have to make its a scarce item. Maybe with to pop once every now and then, but frequent face hugger experiences you can't fight off.
Could also just make it so you can fight one off, but if you get attached to again in a certain period of time, it's instant kill.

They definitely need to make it visually interesting. Alien isolation's wasn't interesting at all imo. I love the graphicness of Alien Trilogy's face huggers, but that isn't realistic.

I love 3 user, but it's actually a nasty movie that got butchered by fox

It's like some kind of shitty MMORPG-design ideas. How do you "hunt down your own chestburster" when you are already fucking dead? lmao

What ps1 game is this?

A blackout and timeskip chestburster scene would definitely make face huggers more interesting

Kek. It actually reminds me of Heart of Darkness.

Facehugger rpg. The more you level up the tougher faces you can hug. Gaining abilities such as beard defense negation and overcoming strong manjaws.

Why, yes, I am the final boss of your game, how did you know?

>face huggers should essentially black out the screen
I think it would be better if your helmet has lights or an UI and you get to see the hugger insides.

Attached: laughs.jpg (600x603, 40K)

You could probably do this without a helmet. Have a struggle where the surrounding light can reflect off the arms and parts of the underside of the face hugger as you try (and fail) to pull it away.

Would need to be QTE.. Facehuggers are fucking lame anyway. They're too tryhard.

>dude spider jumping on your face so scary
Alien isolation was just fine without them.

Hey anyone remember playing AVP 2010 and ACM 2013? did the enemies just freeze or you became invincible while they waited around for you to finish your facehugger animation?

Make it jump at you in a way that you can reasonably stop it but not really easy to do so. If you fuck it up, Cover screen effect, mash mini game. If you do it to some arbitrary limit you get it off with little to no damage to health and a decent window to kill it before it can come back at you. If it's not, you still break it off but it like bleeds or something and you take a significant amount of damage from the burning because you like have to rip it open or some shit. It's the only way I can see it really maintaining a source friendly way around them in a game without just getting rid of shit

Duke nukem 3D had those facehugger thinhgos that you somehow kicked off your own face

If you get facehugged, you need to get Prometheus'd. Find a medbay, make sure the space is alium-free, and then initiate the abortio-- I mean, ''cescarian'' procedure.
You'll be informed of the timelimit because it ocassionally moves around, making you cough up shit. A slight benefit would be that xeno's are less likely to slap your shit because they sense that one of them is growing inside you.

SS13 is the answer to pretty much all of your questions
the facehuggers lay an egg inside you that hatches after a while unleas surgically removed
Don't play SS13 we're full

An item would be easier and cheaper to add than an entire room.
>Yo level designer did you add at least 1-3 med bay rooms in this level?
>Uhhhh yeaah sure.

You want to make getting facehugged a slight nuissance instead of it having the weight of the death sentence that it is. Not cool.

No, come play AvP2 modded, we have a tiny but dedicated community.

how the fuck are facehuggers a threat
just wear a helmet

We need more games where you can ally with the disgusting insect aliens instead of the high tech grey aliens.

I asked the same thing 40 years ago about Alien

Hey, I just realized its joints look like skulls.

>Female voice: Please help us! We were on our way to a bikini competition and our engine overheated!
Hey remember back in horror movies when the alien actually showcased superior intelligence by mimicking and pretending to be a human?
The original ending scene for Alien had this. Ripley lost and the Alien used her dead body or some shit to mimic her voice.

Heh neat. Do you think the original alien skull would have looked cooler or cheesier? Depends on the design?

This is probably more in line with how Giger and Ridley had planned the creature to be in potential future sequels and even during initial filming before Cameron, in his infinite wisdom, decided to frame them as retarded insects with a queen bee on top of the chain.
Giger even tried to iterate upon the xeno design for A3, but by then the studio was already content with Cameron's pleb concepts and threw a wrench in that shit.

And maybe you can see from the bottom screen and if you pick up any health pack then you can get it off of you with no damage, but ahaha good luck playing with 80% of your vision obscured.
Playing with a facehugger on your head on would be funny.

You know what sucks about The Alien in video games? All he cares about is to kill you. Even The Thing had more personality by being a shapeshifter who pretends to be everyone.

I mean every human criminal is more interesting by first fucking around with you and even refusing to kill you.
Imagine trying to escape from the alien hive like 59 times only for your sociopathic alien rapist to drag you down there every single time till it breaks down crying
>I killed your legs
>I killed your cybernetic legs
>I killed your alien leg implants
>And you still find a way to run out of the hive like a little bitch.

I mean there was a comic book where we literally had terrorist alien kidnapper who tried to use humans for experiments.
And kidnappping has been used numerous times in cartoons because it's horror funny.
And there have been tons of immature sociopathic villains in media which kidnap you and try to force you to join their side.

A villain that wants nothing more but to kill you is pretty boring.

That nigga runs like a cat or a rabbit.

All 3 just don't bother with the blackout, enemy clearing and checkpoint reset. All 3 at different levels.

But if the only way to remove it take too much time, people will just reset anyway. So this has to be scripted to always happen or be with auto-save.

>How do we translate the facehugger into video games?
we dont, it can only be used as a insta death mechanic, or
simply do The Thing, and have people wake up and walk around on a ship if they do get facehugged till they get sick and explode, a management of crew game

Perhaps. You could also introduce facemasks or helmets which would serve as a one-time use item of protection against a succesful attack. I'm really not about making the life of the player more miserable.

You freeze in 2010, but you're still vulnerable to damage. So some alien could be tonguing your anus while a facehugger is trying to facefuck you

They melt through the helmet with some acid juices

I have zero interest in the alien franchise but facehuggers impregnating women is the hottest shit ever

My sister, but she's a fat cow with an unbearable personality.

dude imagine if xenomorphs were sexy bimbos wouldn't that be cool haha

How come there isnt an antag that is secret cyborgs from NT that are trying to get a xenoqueen onto the station crew expendable?

Maybe their victory condition would just be to get a live queen on station and have it survive till the end of the round, and the aliens could sense who was the robot

Did you not see the first movie?

>implying

What if getting facehugged sent you through an annoyingly tedious dream sequence/nightmare full of blurry drunk effects, buildings without roofs, crying babies, sexy moans and bosses which show no sign of dying?

I'm of course talking about Max Payne.

>he doesn't know

Play AvP on PC.
Use the chest that let's you play as anything. Choose the Facehugger. Rinse around the map instakilling Marines by jumping their face. Respawning cheat. Repeat.

Good times.

In Space Beast Terror Fright (A game I can recommend btw) facehuggers jump on your face and deal damage every few ticks, you have to aim and shoot them

#2 literally was a mechanic in the alien resurrection game for ps1. You had to find a portable surgery kit which would remove the chestburster or you would die after a set amount of time.

Has anyone else noticed that there's been a lot of subtle advertising for the Alien franchise recently? I'm seeing it everywhere. Is a new movie coming out or something?

Attached: 1551261627059.jpg (914x1249, 266K)

You don't. They're fodder and that's how it was intended.

I would love to see a game push the species into new areas though. Have a game where you only play as aliens. There are a few very large maps (a colony, a star base maybe, etc) and you plan out a hive. Where will your queen be? Do you have drones near airlocks to ambush marines but risk instant death or get a stat boost being near warm and damp areas? Then you send out facehuggers and have to be careful early on until you get a sizable force. As soon as you draw attention a timer starts on a marine response.

But nah. We'll get piss poor shooters and an occasional horror game forever.

Oh yeah in AvP2 they actually let you play as a chestburster who eats his way through the flesh and runs away.
Sadly you can't facehug anyone you want and you don't evolve into a full blown alien whenever you want and you don't play with anything but a drone.

Yeah but that shit only gave you an unrealistic 20s instead of 5-20 minutes like it should be.

Well du it's an insta kill. You're incapacitated and I'm pretty sure if you try to remove embryo you die anyway because of how it imbeds itself into your systems.

Dick Kickem did it just fine

would you eat a facehugger?

Attached: hot pot restuarant snakes.webm (360x636, 2.89M)

This presumably breaks Alien lore but make it like the infection mechanic in Pathologic. Once you have a facehugger in you, you're fucked, it's in there, the only way to survive is some kind of drug or tonic that delays the chestburster (keeps it asleep or whatever). You have to buy yourself enough time to find a medical bay that can extract it safely.

can you actually move and eat his brain or something?

Avp 2010 handled it ok. If it jumps on you 3 times you die. The first 2 times you fling it off and have a chance to shoot it. I wish that game had a better campaign.
