We need a Xenomorph Campaign
This is a message to the devs. Are there any plans to make a Xenos campaign in a future DLC?

If not, I strongly urge you to consider it. There are many like myself who would eagerly buy such a thing. I'm sure the game is good as is, but me personally I've no interest in playing as the Marines.

Playing as the Xenos would be an intuitive experience. Sure the objectives might be simpler (build nest, reproduce, eat, repeat), but that's the appeal. To take the role of an animal.

I actually keep thinking about this, and the game's mechanics do actually fit xenomorphs fairly well with perhaps the slight exception of the "squad" movement. Xenomorphs don't really move in a tight swarm, like that.

But i can see many similar upgrades working the same (increased stealth detection, the abiity to sense through walls at close range etc). And luring people into a room in which you've stashed some eggs (as if they were turrets), or dragging people you ambush away to get replacement morphs, could be a lot of fun.

And then add Predator for hunt there....

Absolutely this - focusing on the stealth early on to abduct victims and build your nest then swarm :) Would be cool!

Which would make it boring because that would get old fast. Being an alien in the Orginal AvP games was fun because you were not a swarm but an infiltrator running along walls and such to avoid overwhelming numbers of humans,

Says you, AVP Extinction was great fun and you got to play as the Aliens, Predators, and Marines.
I'm typing up an entire essay on the concept. Once it's finished I'm going to be posting it under Guides.
