The Thargoids are more violent then us (with proof)

[Rainbro]

Other examples of communication could be they how honk and flash red at you if they find you carrying their stuff after a cargo scan. They then attack if you don't return it, but if you do they let you go. I wonder what the message could be.

Unfortunately the militaries and Aegis could never figure it out, so they had no choice but to launch massacre operations in Thargoid space in response and to continue harvesting the sweet sweet space oil. If only the Thargoids had sent a comms message and a large bag of credits to outbid the war profiteers.

Maybe they just want their stuff back...
But, like you say, that human greed gets them every time.

One could argue that sending a doomsday virus to wipe out an entire species is pretty violent.

I heard this argument before, but i simply can't understand it. Was HIP 22460 home world of Thargoids? Was majority of Thargoid population living on Hip 22460?
How were we supose to wipe out entire species, by activating Super Weapon in Hip 22460?

Was there a hiden Stargate on that planet that connected to all Thargoid world?

Iirc, it was supposed to interact with the surface site and then be communicated through all the other ones, while also removing the threat from the system itself but that didn't happen.
Not sure where i read that though.

@Magichp was about the Mycoid virus

You really have to go back and study the lore before making the claims you made in this topic

So a computer virus? Like in Independence day - you can see where your argument is falling apart. Seems like you don't know your self.
From the video it was only in hip 22460 and no where else.

"Although devastatingly effective at the time, the Thargoids are believed to have developed an immunity to mycoid since their initial exposure to it, making the use of mycoid in the Second Thargoid War highly unlikely." - clearly you are the one who needs to read the lore. This is not even relevant to this war at all.

 

[Star Wanderer]

Your species still caused it, and there were rumours henson ordered it but it's just another example that your species destroys wherever it goes. And ofc, history is written by the victor, after all.
As for the disappearing ships, you may have done exactly the same thing you always do.
It is just in your nature and you will never be able to get past that as you have not changed in thousands of years and still fight amongst yourselves.

By fighting among our selves we become stronger and improve our technology. We hone our combat skills and become better pilots. We take part in major conflicts and develop strategies for massive battles. So when the Goids come we will be ready!

No, a wave.
I can't find any evidence for it so disregard for now. I might have thought it may have done something like that but no evidence
From what i did read, weapon in thargoid site(proteus wave), guardian stuff draws thargoids, wave goes off.
They thought it would be enough to clear the core systems.
Went back to 22nd july galnet.

In the video: " I am picking up an energy surge ... Thargoids markers, but amplified past anything i've seen ". So it was never possible to go beyond 1 system.

Those among Humanity who fear the worst (that the Thargoids are out to destroy Humanity) seem to discount the countless non-fatal interactions with humanity's ships. If Thargoid goodies were surrendered, ships were not destroyed.
Also, if presuming the worst, why then haven't the Thargoids simply dropped into Sol, unleashed some devastating deed there, and casually jumped away? They're presumed to be intelligent. Do we really think they don't know about Sol? That they can't follow our movements and gain an understanding of what systems are significant? 'Congregation' or 'concentration' is a simple enough metric and concept. You needn't have an understanding of much else if you're just looking to wipe out big portions of a civilization. Go where the big numbers are, deliver your unforgettable message...

It seems to me that the instances of attacks against humans are not in space that wasn't first Thargoid-occupied (or Thargoid historical) and later inhabited by humanity, or attempted to be inhabited, harvested, mutilated. Those identifications have been made by Humanity. Remember, we can't (or won't) hear any messages they might be sending.
They have not, in any significant way, expanded attacks into 'our space.' Who's got patience? This makes it look more like Humanity is the annoying insect, being almost carefully swept away from the hands that we're annoying, rather than being killed outright.

Communication? I'm not convinced that we have tried honestly as a civilization. Sure, there are groups who are trying - while being harshly ridiculed by a not-insignificant portion of our civilization.

I've not really been on one side or the other of this humanity / Thargoid epic. But, looking at it, one has to wonder if we're being honest and objective, or if we're being short-sighted, narrow-minded, and not really trying to break out of our well-known tendency to exhibit those traits.

I hope you are but many have adopted the same policy throughout human history and where are their empires now?

 

[angusmadmac1]

So imagine a hive mind you infect one and all will become affected . They needed access to the Thargoid internet or at least that what salvation wanted . Again it was to end the threat of the Thargoids . Same happened with the virus infect one they bring it back to others.
So now you have angry Thargoids who in the past left humans alone , now wanting vengeance .
Humans poking a hornet's nest with a short stick .
Now humans crying because the hornets are attacking them .
Humans revel in war , destruction and suffering they don't look back to history and see the mistakes and learn from them . They continue with the sharp pointy stick and still cry when they still get stung .. What next? 100 humans with sharp pointy sticks in the hope that some won't get stung .
Wake the sleeping giant at humanities risk but don't come the ole , they started it , we will finish it, we woz only following orders . Old story told so many times and failed so many times . With so many graves of innocents and not so .
Good luck in your fight .

They did attacked Sol:

We dont know how the protheus wave Was intended to work exactly. Salvation did not told us. What he told us so far, was that the protheus wave should have wiped out the Thargoids. Just watch his speech in the Video cutscene. We had a discussion about xenozide before (GalNet reported).

Again... learn the lore. Embarassing. Every one knows that this was the nine martyr bombing by the NMLA. The Thargoids had no part in this.

 

[Northpin]

Ofc it's not relevant to the current war, but it's relevant to your thread title.
Or have you forgot how you titled your thread?

The Thargoids are more violent then us (with proof)

So no, they're not since they were not trying to wipe our entire species like we attempted with the mycoid virus - which makes us the most violent ones (they're just defending their territories and the barnacle forests)

And you mentioning the Sol attacks (the Nine Martyrs) has nothing to do with the Thargoids, but again to human violence
Learn the lore!

 

[angusmadmac1]

They did attacked Sol:
View attachment 317861

No, that was the NMLA
I quote "
Explosions have struck starports across the Alliance, Empire and Federation in a coordinated bombing attack by the NMLA.

The capital systems of all three superpowers – Achenar, Alioth and Sol – have been targeted by the terrorists, as well as six other high-population systems. Precise casualty numbers are unavailable, but several hundred thousand people have been killed with many more injured.

There are urgent calls for independent pilots to rescue survivors and support repair operations at all nine locations:

• Dawes Hub in the Achenar system
• Donaldson in the Alioth system
• Dublin Citadel in the Gateway system
• Hahn Gateway in the Nanomam system
• Ito Orbital in the Rhea system
• Lave Station in the Lave system
• Li Qing Jao in the Sol system
• Parkinson Dock in the Eotienses system
• Shajn Market in the Kamadhenu system

The explosive damage to each station is consistent with corrosive enzyme weapons previously used by the NMLA. This has triggered automated systems designed to respond to Thargoid assaults.

The Alliance Defence Force, Federal Navy and Imperial Navy are on full alert."
So no Thargoids haven't attacked Sol

In my Sol example there is a difference between what was told and what really happen. So as you can see, there was no xenocide. Just a typical propaganda.

See my post above , typical propaganda on the human side. Who gave the Thargoid missiles oh hang on it was humans why ??? I wonder .
Shock horror thargoids attacked Sol , I will do my bit and kill thargoids .
Sirius and the corporation's are pushing your buttons and you are acting like a good soldier . Just following orders . I'm told they are the enemy so they must be , I mean those in charge would never lie to me ??
