Xenoqueen Sighted question
Does this message mean a Xenomorph Queen is in the area? I receieved the alert going from Easy to Medium aggressiveness and so far I have never seen a queen walking around the area or have been able to aggro one while fighting waves and waves and onsloughts of the aliens.

Has anyone been able to actually witness one from a random spawn?

Your mistaking that alert, it's for a tier 2 xeno and will be a crusher first and then a praetorian for the second.

Queens are mini bosses and there is only a set amount in the game, some of which are optional.

There actually was an alert I got only one time saying "Xeno Queen Sighted", it was a few minutes after I killed the first queen. I didnt see any queen, but the message does exist

So it is an oversight by the developers then? The alert does say "Xenoqueen Sighted" and it sent well after I've already killed the queens on the first two maps while the aggressiveness level is rises.

I will confirm that the queen can spawn after ticking a notch on the aggressiveness meter (nightmare diff on dead hills first level). I had stressed marines and max aggro... I got a header: queen sighted in area, and watched like 50 drones pop out of two tunnels then parade around the map (and get stuck at a wall) Got party wiped, and tried to replicate, but am not able to (yet?). This might be a rare encounter or need other conditions to be met, I can't find any help about how this works, or chances of spawning, but damn if it ain't the best surprise yet in this game.

The game also says for me "Weld doors to createS a shelter" - the S should not be there at all, and I noticed some weird spelling issues in general (well it is a French studio), but I really hope there's some form of an update or even DLC/additional content coming soon. I love this game!
