A question about the single mother in Egg missions

[Rock&StoneTorture]

Okay, she moans whenever we take one of her children. Wonder if we ever gonna see her? In some kind of season boss fight? I also want a lootbug boss too. I want to bathe in minerals when we kill her.

I was thinking it'd be cool as a unique deep dive boss with the first 2 stages building up diving deep into a nest with unique objectives for it.

I know it wont happen that way though if a queen was added and many wont like it locked behind deep dive too.

The way it looks like they want to do seasons, it seems possible that it could happen. Dunno if it's likely, though.

I never considered it to be a single creature wailing when an egg was dug free; I assumed it was all glyphids, in some horrible hive-mind, crying out together

Considering the layers in the ''scream'' sound, and the fact that it comes from everywhere and even shakes the screen. I am pretty sure this is the case.
All the glyphids in the area get angry, and shout at the same time.

1) There are green eggs planted everywhere.
2) There are eggs that have swarmers in them on some maps.
3) Dreadnoughts fling eggsacks.

That means there are at least two different variants of Glyphid Queens, which are at least Dreadnought class.

(And assuming green eggs are Dreadnought eggs, and only few of them reach viability.)

That's horrifying to consider. An adult Dread. There's a reason that management makes us kill them when they are just babies

This will be season 2's subject I am sure.

Not convinced that the eggs are glyphid at all. They're just called alien eggs, aren't they? We can FIND glyphid eggs in biozone/fungus. Dreads are cocoons becoming something worse, so they were probably praets or oppressors before.

The egg screams are unique, iirc. It angering glyphids doesn't mean a whole lot, because a LOT of things anger the glyphids-- hacking pod; PE platform entry; doretta and other machines; the presence of dwarves... The scream audible from where we dig it and shakes the screen, so it's not a stretch to say that it can agitate the glyphids in the area as well.

It could be some kind of mactera mother, but I think it's something big that we haven't seen.

It sounds more like a single massive creature, which is then followed by local glyphids. The first, main scream would be very loud, and is visibly enough to shake the area. It's more likely that the glyphids are agitated by that, isn't it?

I really hope they do something with it. Something big and menacing

Monosodium glutamate (MSG), also known as sodium glutamate, is the sodium salt of glutamic acid. MSG is found naturally in some foods including tomatoes and cheese. MSG is used in cooking as a flavor enhancer with an umami taste that intensifies the meaty, savory flavor of food, as naturally occurring glutamate does in foods such as stews and meat soups.

That's basically already in the game as the hoarder.

I understand this, and sometimes I wish I didn't.
