predalien question

ghola88, Undefined, 19 years ago

As we know predaliens come from predators. I was wondering can predaliens actually learn how to use pred tech if exposed to them and needs tech?
After all preds learned how to use tech too.

PS: Is sig ban over now???

Unknown, but good question. Could possibly hinder the growth process or final appearance of the drone.

Well, like i said, it's all down to personal preference, i for one would hate to see this and find it a complete joke, in fact, i think i'd give up on the whole franchise if they ever dared to include something like that.

What makes the aliens so meanacing is down to their originality, the minute you start putting objects like guns in their hands etc you're just turning them into stereotypical 'little green men from outer space' I'd rather sit down and watch a stand up comedy show than something as daft as that.

ya but like children they will learn how to use,munipulate and possibly( most scariest )
EVOLVE THEIR STRUCTURE TO ACCOMPLISH IT.

I was using it as an example purely.

I think it would look really stupid for an alien to start using weapons, it would detract from their primal instincts and i think would deter most hardcore fans from showing further interest in the franchise.

Their whole bodies in essence, are in fact weapons, aliens do posses a fair degree of intelligence but only on an extremely primal level. Like a child - it sticks its hand in fire - it learns quickly not to do this again.

lions are different from aliens aliens are more intelligent more evolved more built... for the kill. I think that if they want they could use a tool to help them break hardcore prey who wont give up.

i would like to see sponge bob in that.
But itll be kinda cool if apredalien suddenly catches a disc thrown at him and throws it back.

Sorry mate, i have to disagree, that's like a lion catching a spear and throwing it back at a human hunter, it's just not very plausable.

HHHmmm, can't say i agree at all with the content of the last two posts, i mean, would you really wish to see a drone holdin and using a gun? It would be border line ridiculous. Might as well throw sponge bob square pants a pred mask and give him a spear....

well a predalien could be forced to use them but i think it would quite a long time.
I infact, think aliens are quite intelligent.
They could do the the classic 'monkey see monkey do' like watch and learn, I mean look in alien ressurection and some other alien movies we see that after some time a xeno is exposed to a piece of tech it learns to use it, try it out, fool the enemy to think its stupid.
You never know maybe one day humans are surprised to see a drone snatch a gun from a marine a use it.

The only Possibility I can think of is maybe if a queen were inside a genius, then maybe some of the physical mathematical and logic abilites might be passed on. I.e the ability tro figure out that power goes to the lights, these cablers give the power, take out the cables they can't see, a lot quicker than your average queen might. I mean if you look at the queen from AvP, It seemed like she had been there for a long time, she she probably had a lot of time to think about how to escape.

but I doubt you'd see drones carrying guns lol
bu then again that alien abomination from Alien Rex, might've been able to hold and use a gun.
But so far as learning how to build and make weapons, the drones themselves are pretty much the queens ranged weapons, as facehugger's etc..
the species itself on a whole is pretty much a weapon....
Which might put a pro to the argument that they were created.

yes but could they still develop a way to learn like in alien res the alien pushed the button because he saw how the guy used it. So could predaliens figure how to example, a predalien catch a disc or shuriken thrown at him and throw it back or figure how to use a remote bomb dunno just askin.
bye for the night m8 se ya tommorow.

So for example someone is a born genius and an alien facehuggs him, will the alien become an alien genius???
Enaeling it to use tools.

yeah probably

hey dave i thought sig ban was over

No. The alien samples random strains of its host DNA and this helps the alien assatain features that will help it survive in it's new environment, c'mon guys, don't ask childish questions like that.

The sig ban is over.

See ya later Ghola.

I'm thinking that there probably would be a market for this sort of stuff within the comic word or the books in the AVP universe, but as far as it goes in the movies, i doubt you'd see anything like it, unless Anderson comes on board again.....

okay okay okay. Pred-Aliens are aliens. loyal to the hive. The only diffrce is they come from preds.
Like runners come from quadrapeds, and bipeds make them "warriors in aliens" type aliens.
They wouldnt be able to use pred tech. theyre just big drones.

Ahem, i must have fanta now!

daveberg, Undefined, 19 years ago

No the sig ban is not over. (All board related enquiries are in the official message board topic.

Predaliens are in effect - still aliens, they are a different breed of extra terrestrial than the predators, The have just sampled the DNA strain from the yuitja and in turn, this has altered the appearance of the xenomorphs. So i would say a big no, Predaliens cannot use pred tech.

However If the Queen learnt to manipulate the technology, wouldn't she be able to command her drones on how to use it to their advantage?
I mean if the can cut the power to a gigantic futuristic atmosphere processor (when I doubt we could) what's to say that the queen cannot learn and remember? maybe even genetically pass on to her descendants?
I mean even in one of the movie promo's it says, if they have any form of intelligence then it is completely alien (cannot remember which sorry)
