@@Maryondo I've been traumatized many a time by stepping on her tail. Fortunatly, it was not the tail that got me. She somehow phased through the door.
It would had been cool that after a while, the Alien would tear that door apart, even as far as cutting itself a bit to let the acid melt part of it. Then if one returns to the door, the damage to it would be seen.
If they'd thought of people doing that, I still would've thought it was an unintentional exploit and owuld have officially shit my pants. Maybe one day they'll remake the game
I can't believe it, and I'm 100% serious, but that motion detector beep just activated my fight or flight response. Any horror game that gives you real, tangible PTSD is certifiably the GOAT.
In case anyone is playing this for the first time - be aware that the alien can hear your motion tracker........ And yes, they really did put that in the game.
@@ghillieassassin8419 There is no noise / sound detection on PC. Efforts to enable it however have been in the works for a while. Sound / noise detection is a console exclusive feature which is enabled at s tarting of a campaign and which the player is given option to disable.

Realisticlaly speaking wouldnt the flamethrower be able to kill it through the door? There are gaps. Also crouch walking doesnt make you stealthier IRL, it actually makes louder noises because you are shuffling your feet while crouched.
@CFox.7 Well the alien respawns when you enter a new area that requires a loading screen and in some missions there's scripted events that cause the alien to teleport to a certain area. I was able to run all over the place without being worried about the alien for a while though, it was fun!

My question is, does the alien stay trapped in there for the rest of the game, or does it just respawn another place when you get far away from that point?
She will stay there until either you use an elavator/tram that requires a loading screen (Because it respawns the alien) or until you reach a scripted event because it also respawns the alien.
Good job! Now if only you can do that for the many other Xenomorphs that are still down there in Engineering below the reactor, on top of destroying those facehugger eggs. Lol! 😆😆😆

@@googleyoflolz9930not exactly, they’re extremely strong, but in Resurrection it is abundantly clear they can be contained physically. They couldn’t actually break the containment glass they were held behind either. They got out by killing one of their own and using its blood to melt the floor. Their blood oxidizes rather quickly and makes their blood inert very fast in low quantities. You would have to have a significant enough pool of it to make an “exit” big enough for them to fit through, hence why they outright killed one instead of just making themselves bleed a little bit
@@googleyoflolz9930not exactly, they’re extremely strong and larger specimens can force their way through doors eventually, as has been shown before, but in Resurrection it is abundantly clear they can be contained physically.

You would have to have a significant enough pool of it to make an “exit” big enough for them to fit through, hence why they outright killed one instead of just making themselves bleed a little bit. Why if this was something done in reality, it would probably take a while for it to figure out that it might have a chance at break the door with the holes in it. Pretty much just punching between them until or perhaps smearing some of its blood around the connections between the holes and essentially making a circle hole for it, though it would take time and I’m sure the people would’ve tried to deal with it rather then letting it escape… now this doesn’t help with the entire hive also being s thing… but this guy would’ve been contained for awhile
@@DS-wl5pkNot canon. Scott has retconned anything after Alien and before Prometheus. I know a lot of people love Aliens, 3, and Resurrection but they never happened so to speak. That being said we have never seen a Xenomorph be pushed to the full limit of its' strength or reflexes. Given the biomechanical nature of it that Scott has confirmed (which is partly why the other movies were retconned) I would guess given time it'd be able to get through a barrier like this. And even if it couldn't it's intelligent enough to realize a few self made small cuts are worth it to get out.
@@JP-xg6bv well that’s great because everything I said about how the blood works was established in Alien. Alien 3 and resurrection just showcased more of what they could do with it. Remember, in alien the single drop burned through 4 decks. It would probably accidentally get out with its blood trying to brute force it and cutting itself. There’s nothing that implies it still wouldn’t get out via its blood Or brute force. They are strong enough to easily drag people up to high places like shown in alien, with almost zero effort. That implies an insane amount of strength. Think of the big cats that drag prey into trees. Even they struggle a bit to even get a good grip, of course they make it seem effortless, but the way it took Brett up made him seem weightless There also isn’t really anything not lore friendly in Aliens so I don’t see why you couldn’t actually use it as a reference as to what to realistically expect from an alien. I know it’s easy to say “but mah retcon” but those movies were made with a specific context and idea. Unless they plan on greatly changing how classic Xenia work, I think it’s more then safe to use it as a reference. The only thing that may change is anything involving the queen and the intelligence she seems to have. They may remove the queen all together, which I would hate but it makes the most sense if anything did “need to go” in order to change how the xenon work without changing too much of the lore.
Oh he's pissed at you. Listen to those screams! :P I thought he was gonna kill you at least twice. Gotta be careful getting too close when trapping the alien. He can transmute through that gate. LUL Don't ask how I know.
@@googleyoflolz9930 Yeah. I've seen this done mostly for extra aliens mods. Congregation, Smoke Isolation and Kitty Isolation & Kitty's Nightmare. The latter two mods where the alien runs moment it spawns and teleports into you if it's behind your back. Smoke and Kitty's Nightmare has up to 5 aliens making trapping the aliens very tricky.
@@googleyoflolz9930 Quite a bit can be done using Matt Filer's OpenCAGE program. He's just posted a video link with proof concept custom doors. He's said it will soon go to staging branch of the program. Custom doors are required to support scratch built world changes b/c the game uses dynamic loading zones and doors are the zonelinks / boundaries.
@@googleyoflolz9930 don't need any source code. Not for most things; There's a modding tool called OpenCAGE which gives access to the game scripting engine called CATHODE. CATHODE is a custom built Creative Assembly scripting engine. A (genius) developer named Matt Filer has created OpenCAGE to edit the CATHODE scripts. At thie point we can add extra aliens, add items to inventory, skip levels, and even reskin the alien as Thomas The Tank Engine. That mod was released last year for Halloween to NexusMods. Matt also released a program to randomize the order of levels in the game and two other modders extensively debugged the mod so as to minimize problems with playing the levels out or order (for example they had to respawn the npc civilians at the end of mission 11 if mission 10 was not already played or the game would crash b/c their state is recorded and there was a conflict. This mod though is quite hard because you can theoretically go to missions later in the game without resources or weapons. It does however make the game interesting as no two random ordered playthroughs would be the same. His tool can also edit the behavior tree and add new branches. It can edit characters, weapon paramters, blueprints, and lastly can edit the alien's sensing parameters such as leashing, sound / sight sensitivity and locomotion (running speed). Matt Filer is on GitHub if you're interested.
It's not even a problem at all. You don't even notice until the fifth playthrough .-. Now, it WAS a problem in, say, Security Breach. You noticed the first time in happened in that game.
It does not actually teleport unless it's behind you and you're in an animation such as cutting a panel or using a junction lever. Otherwise, the teleporting is limited to a few places where it upvents audibly for a scripted event. These events are in Medical Mission 5. If you get far enough back to Khulman when you have the keycard, the alien must be ready to kill him thus it despawns to be present for that event. Mission 6. Right before the scripted ending the alien will despawn to be present for that. Mission 7 the animation where the alien grabs one of the NPCs will despawn the alien to be there. In Mission 17 there's a scripted jump scare. If you get far enough along the hallway it will be desapwned again to be present for that event. Any other teleportations are not actually. The alien can go backstage and then move right fast to another vent to drop from, but it's not technically teleportation. If however you're in an animation to use a door button, cut a panel, use a junction lever while the alien is behind you and you're unable to exit in time it will appear to teleport because time game time gets compressed when the alien is behind the player and it doesn't need to be rendered for it's movement. In Kitty Isolation which is a mod this latter effect is made 1000% stronger by the alien always running vs merely stomping about. It will always kill the player if it's behind you. But that is highly modified to create that very effect.
@americandissident9062 It doesn't have a time limit. It respawns after a loading screen or a scripted event (E.g. the xenomorph crawling put of the vents in the medbay.)
That's why I don't like games since I became old enough, everything is so scripted and predictable. In a real life alien would not run into a wall like that, and such door would probably not stop him to begin with.
That's the exact reason I hate talking to AI. But also, sometimes to enjoy a good book you have to let go of it's flaws. That same logic can be applied to most things.
@@googleyoflolz9930 I can let go in movies or books, but not in games, because it's interactive experience, especially things like invisible walls or inability to jump somewhere, duck under a table where you see enough space, especially if such mechanic was used in that game before but in other spot, or climbing certain trees/walls but not others.
@@JamesSmith-ix5jd I get it, really. it's hard to keep playin when your expectations haven't been met. That's the problem I have with a LOT of games. Fortunatly for me, this is my third playthrough and on the first playthrough you never really notice these things. Every other playthrough usually is just goofing around. But you do you, sometimes it just isn't your thing.
Unfortunately the alien mechanic in this game is not very good, it always teleport close to you. I remember when I played it on a few occasions I thought like oh come on, that’s clearly a script and cheat.
This has been known about for years. Probably all big fans have done this especially since at that point of the game you likely have an excess of flares. Unless playing on nightmare where they may be needed to take on the working joes. They are more of a danger than the alien since although you can take 2 hits unlike 1 with the alien, there are more of them.
If you do not agro the Working Joes such as shooting them direct or indirect, or using a flashbang, EMP, or noisemaker near them they are not actually hostile in this mission; they follow the same function as the warehouse Joe in Mission 7 where he's not hostile unless you "do something illegal". The best part of using this trick is if a Working Joe gets trapped WITH the alien. Then you hear the Joe casually asking "what are you?" as the alien is screaming over n over. as the warehouse Joe in Mission 7 where he's "not hostile unless you do something illegal".
Bionicle is such a cool series.

@@googleyoflolz9930not exactly, they’re extremely strong, but in Resurrection it is abundantly clear they can be contained physically. They couldn’t actually break the containment glass they were held behind either.
They got out by killing one of their own and using its blood to melt the floor. Their blood oxidizes rather quickly and makes their blood inert very fast in low quantities. You would have to have a significant enough pool of it to make an “exit” big enough for them to fit through, hence why they outright killed one instead of just making themselves bleed a little bit
@@googleyoflolz9930not exactly, they’re extremely strong and larger specimens can force their way through doors eventually, as has been shown before, but in Resurrection it is abundantly clear they can be contained physically. They couldn’t actually break the containment glass they were held behind either. You just enough of and the right materials.

Why if this was something done in reality, it would probably take a while for it to figure out that it might have a chance at break the door with the holes in it. Pretty much just punching between them until or perhaps smearing some of its blood around the connections between the holes and essentially making a circle hole for it, though it would take time and I’m sure the people would’ve tried to deal with it rather then letting it escape… now this doesn’t help with the entire hive also being s thing… but this guy would’ve been contained for awhile
@@DS-wl5pkNot canon. Scott has retconned anything after Alien and before Prometheus. I know a lot of people love Aliens, 3, and Resurrection but they never happened so to speak.
That being said we have never seen a Xenomorph be pushed to the full limit of its' strength or reflexes. Given the biomechanical nature of it that Scott has confirmed (which is partly why the other movies were retconned) I would guess given time it'd be able to get through a barrier like this. And even if it couldn't it's intelligent enough to realize a few self made small cuts are worth it to get out.
@@JP-xg6bv well that’s great because everything I said about how the blood works was established in Alien. Alien 3 and resurrection just showcased more of what they could do with it.
Remember, in alien the single drop burned through 4 decks. It would probably accidentally get out with its blood trying to brute force it and cutting itself. There’s nothing that implies it still wouldn’t get out via its blood
Or brute force. They are strong enough to easily drag people up to high places like shown in alien, with almost zero effort. That implies an insane amount of strength.
Think of the big cats that drag prey into trees. Even they struggle a bit to even get a good grip, of course they make it seem effortless, but the way it took Brett up made him seem weightless
There also isn’t really anything not lore friendly in Aliens so I don’t see why you couldn’t actually use it as a reference as to what to realistically expect from an alien.
I know it’s easy to say “but mah retcon” but those movies were made with a specific context and idea. Unless they plan on greatly changing how classic Xenia work, I think it’s more then safe to use it as a reference.
The only thing that may change is anything involving the queen and the intelligence she seems to have. They may remove the queen all together, which I would hate but it makes the most sense if anything did “need to go” in order to change how the xenon work without changing too much of the lore.
Genius, I guess the rest of the game was fairly easy
I wish
How many of us tried this after watching this video 😂😂😂
Hahaha damn he’s mad
No way in hell do I have e the nerve to try that.
Neither do I! Atleast, not after doing this destoryed my nerves :D
So game over? You can explore in peace now?
Unfortunatly, no. There are more on the ship.
thats an isolate alien... so you just won?
Unfortunatly, there's more than one on the ship
Well done!
Noice
ce troll ^^
Good job 😆❤️👍👍
But can you burn it?
Yes
Oh he's pissed at you. Listen to those screams! :P
I thought he was gonna kill you at least twice. Gotta be careful getting too close when trapping the alien.
He can transmute through that gate. LUL Don't ask how I know.
Oh, I know... this vid is my second attempt haha...
@@googleyoflolz9930 Yeah. I've seen this done mostly for extra aliens mods. Congregation, Smoke Isolation and Kitty Isolation & Kitty's Nightmare. The latter two mods where the alien runs moment it spawns and teleports into you if it's behind your back. Smoke and Kitty's Nightmare has up to 5 aliens making trapping the aliens very tricky.
@ghramsey1681 It's comments like this that make me wonder exactly how much I can break/troll the game without using source code.
@@googleyoflolz9930 Quite a bit can be done using Matt Filer's OpenCAGE program.
He's just posted a video link with proof concept custom doors. He's said it will soon go to staging branch of the program. Custom doors are required to support scratch built world changes b/c the game uses dynamic loading zones and doors are the zonelinks / boundaries.
@@googleyoflolz9930 don't need any source code. Not for most things;
There's a modding tool called OpenCAGE which gives access to the game scripting engine called CATHODE. CATHODE is a custom built Creative Assembly scripting engine.
A (genius) developer named Matt Filer has created OpenCAGE to edit the CATHODE scripts. At thie point we can add extra aliens, add items to inventory, skip levels, and even reskin the alien as Thomas The Tank Engine. That mod was released last year for Halloween to NexusMods.
Matt also released a program to randomize the order of levels in the game and two other modders extensively debugged the mod so as to minimize problems with playing the levels out or order (for example they had to respawn the npc civilians at the end of mission 11 if mission 10 was not already played or the game would crash b/c their state is recorded and there was a conflict. This mod though is quite hard because you can theoretically go to missions later in the game without resources or weapons. It does however make the game interesting as no two random ordered playthroughs would be the same.
His tool can also edit the behavior tree and add new branches. It can edit characters, weapon paramters, blueprints, and lastly can edit the alien's sensing parameters such as leashing, sound / sight sensitivity and locomotion (running speed).
Matt Filer is on GitHub if you're interested.
THIS ISN'T OVER HOOMAN, DO YOU HEAR ME???
Xenomorph is part cat confirmed
Couldn't you just kill it after you trap it?
The game has no mechanic to "kill" the alien.
Taking all of it's healthpoints away makes it despawn and it goes backstage
only to spawn elsewhere.
The problem with this game is the alien teleports.
It's not even a problem at all. You don't even notice until the fifth playthrough .-.
Now, it WAS a problem in, say, Security Breach. You noticed the first time in happened in that game.
It does not actually teleport unless it's behind you and you're in an animation such as cutting a panel or using a junction lever. Otherwise, the teleporting is limited to a few places where it upvents audibly for a scripted event.
These events are in Medical Mission 5. If you get far enough back to Khulman when you have the keycard, the alien must be ready to kill him thus it despawns to be present for that event.
Mission 6. Right before the scripted ending the alien will despawn to be present for that.
Mission 7 the animation where the alien grabs one of the NPCs will despawn the alien to be there.
In Mission 17 there's a scripted jump scare. If you get far enough along the hallway it will be desapwned again to be present for that event.
Any other teleportations are not actually. The alien can go backstage and then move right fast to another vent to drop from, but it's not technically teleportation.
If however you're in an animation to use a door button, cut a panel, use a junction lever while the alien is behind you and you're unable to exit in time it will appear to teleport because time game time gets compressed when the alien is behind the player and it doesn't need to be rendered for it's movement. In Kitty Isolation which is a mod this latter effect is made 1000% stronger by the alien always running vs merely stomping about. It will always kill the player if it's behind you. But that is highly modified to create that very effect.
Cool then you can just walk through the rest of the game 😎
I wish :,)
@@googleyoflolz9930What happens? The alien just respawns and respawns somewhere else after a certain time?
@americandissident9062 It doesn't have a time limit. It respawns after a loading screen or a scripted event (E.g. the xenomorph crawling put of the vents in the medbay.)
That's why I don't like games since I became old enough, everything is so scripted and predictable.
In a real life alien would not run into a wall like that, and such door would probably not stop him to begin with.
That's the exact reason I hate talking to AI. But also, sometimes to enjoy a good book you have to let go of it's flaws. That same logic can be applied to most things.
@@googleyoflolz9930 I can let go in movies or books, but not in games, because it's interactive experience, especially things like invisible walls or inability to jump somewhere, duck under a table where you see enough space, especially if such mechanic was used in that game before but in other spot, or climbing certain trees/walls but not others.
@@JamesSmith-ix5jd I get it, really. it's hard to keep playin when your expectations haven't been met. That's the problem I have with a LOT of games. Fortunatly for me, this is my third playthrough and on the first playthrough you never really notice these things. Every other playthrough usually is just goofing around.
But you do you, sometimes it just isn't your thing.
kinda easy ngl... baby game for babies
Rage bait is not allowed but thanks for the views
@@googleyoflolz9930 dab on the haters
@@hoagie911 indeed
Unfortunately the alien mechanic in this game is not very good, it always teleport close to you. I remember when I played it on a few occasions I thought like oh come on, that’s clearly a script and cheat.
How can you say this? The alien was geniously made, who cares if they throw in a scripted event for a jumpscare? It sure scared me.
This has been known about for years. Probably all big fans have done this especially since at that point of the game you likely have an excess of flares. Unless playing on nightmare where they may be needed to take on the working joes. They are more of a danger than the alien since although you can take 2 hits unlike 1 with the alien, there are more of them.
Wow thanks, grateful you felt the need to point that out. I guess I can't have fun then.
Yes, I was on nightmare mode, asshole.
Not by me, fuckface, I enjoyed the video.
If you do not agro the Working Joes such as shooting them direct or indirect, or using a flashbang, EMP, or noisemaker near them they are not actually hostile in this mission; they follow the same function as the warehouse Joe in Mission 7 where he's not hostile unless you "do something illegal".
The best part of using this trick is if a Working Joe gets trapped WITH the alien.
Then you hear the Joe casually asking "what are you?" as the alien is screaming over n over.
as the warehouse Joe in Mission 7 where he's "not hostile unless you do something illegal".
What a thing to say.
