*Spoilers* Alien Eggs

[Endless]

How the hell did so many get on the station? I thought a queen needed to be present to pump them out. I figured initially when I saw them, they were carried there by the crew of that ship that visited the derelict.

Later on you find a TON of eggs. I know a facehugger creates an alien that shares the DNA of whatever host it's insisde. But soldier xeno's can't create eggs, only secrete the ♥♥♥♥ they need to create a hive.

In Alien 1 from the interviews you will learn that the alien takes people on one at a time for a reason. The alien makes a nest glues them to the wall and lays a larvae next to them.

This larvae consumes the host causing them to liquify and change to a melted apearance as the larvae grows into an egg. You see the crew being consumed and the eggs growing in the extended version of Alien which is on the Bluray version.

Ridley and Giger origianly wanted an alien queen in the story but kept it out to stay on budget. James Cameron for the sequil got acces to all sketches and scripts and chose to write the queen back in.


Add spoiler to your title as it will ruin the story for those new to the game.

One of the devs said there was a queen somewhere deep in the hive, they just didn't want to show her because the player might feel obligated for there to be some sort of confrontation.

First one that burst out could of been a queen. Or a queen came later, from the old fashioned way of making eggs.

From http://www.avpgalaxy.net/website/interviews/interview-alien-isolation-writers-will-porter-dion-lay/2/ :

"AvPGalaxy – Was there any point in which the Alien Queen actually made a presence in the story of the game and how would that have played out?

Will Porter – No, she was always as previously described – there but unseen, for fear that the player would expect a battle. I think that, ultimately, we made the right choice. There were many meetings in which we discussed having vague hints at her presence but, to borrow a Dan Abnett phrase, it was too ‘on the nose’. She’s down there somewhere, in amongst the cacophony, but Ripley was lucky enough not to bump into her."
