Hey, adreal here again & no I'm not dead yet, sorry. Anyway, would anyone play an Aliens vs Predator mmofps (where you could choose to be a human, alien, or predator)? I think it'd be fun. I'd like to be a face-hugger, running 30 mph down darkened hallways and hiding in corners, waiting for the lone marine on a mission through an infested colony *insert rest of babbling*. It'd be a cool idea though.. something like Planet Side where you have to gain ranks to get points to distribute so you can progress from a hatchling alien to a Praetorian or a Queen. Of course it'd be different with humans where you could train in hacking or heavy weapons, heavier armor, or driving one of those armored vehicles that was featured in "Aliens".

How would you differeniate classes for Predators? I thought they were all generally the same "I see your body heat so I kill you." kinda thing.
And Aliens, how would you do the different forms? Face Hugger, Stand Stalker, Queen Mother?

since the majority prefers medieval type of mmorpgs
I don't know. Planet Side is quite addictive for the first time around. I think an AVP mmoFPS (not RPG) would certainly have its fanbase.

*shrug* There could be a way if someone has enough ingenuity. I'm not going to try to answer on the subject since I never much liked playing the predator...

I don't know - just to throw an idea at you though: You could start out as a "hatchling" alien and then use some sort of points to train in a specific type of alien. If you were a praetorian then each time you respawned you would be a baby alien and then quickly grow (molt or shed skin) into a praetorian again. Those who chose to be face huggers would hatch from eggs that player-character Queens would lay inside or outside of major hive points. These would be similar to the AMS's in PS except it would be like 1 egg for each respawning face hugger or something like that. but... maybe these FH (for short) could incubate predators and marines and then those incubated individuals would be (for practical purposes) dead and would be a spawning point for hatchling aliens that would grow into their preferred class (drone, praetorian, runner, jumper, queen, etc.)

Well for this when you play a Pred...your view would be different.....you would see in a view thats always like infa red or night vision.....adn humans and stuff would have to hide and jump out...
or you could even have areas that covers the body for like 10 min.....and it makes you harder to see....that sounds like a cool idea..but it would be hard.....
