For you, what is the new thargoid variant ?

I'm just curious to know, how worth will it be chewing tiny bits from this new ship for the war effort? Will we clear alert systems even faster? Will they start wearing diapers?
 
As ED is basically a shoot-em-up with the depth of an episode of Bod
I loved Bod...but now I've had the damn Bod theme tune going round in my head for the last 30mins!!! :D
Doomer program:

10 A="New Elite Feature"
20 B="Is there a way to Spread Doom?"
30 IF A+B THEN "Spread DOOM"; GOTO 40
40 DOOM RESPONSE $ "BAD GAME DESIGN";"GAME IS DEAD";"FRONTIER BAD";"PLAY STAR CITIZEN INSTEAD";"GNASH TEETH";"ETC"
50 RANDOMIZE DOOM RESPONSE$
60 PRINT DOOM RESPONSE$
Lines 10-30 are irrelevant in your code. Lines 40-60 will always get executed regardless of the outcome of the IF statement in line 30. You've basically over complicated your code.
A more realistic and simpler code snippet would be:

10 PRINT "New Feature Announced"
20 DOOM RESPONSE $ "BAD GAME DESIGN";"GAME IS DEAD";"FRONTIER BAD";"PLAY STAR CITIZEN INSTEAD";"GNASH TEETH";"ETC"
30 RANDOMIZE DOOM RESPONSE$
40 PRINT DOOM RESPONSE$

She has established contact, they may see that as an opportunity or a threat. That's good enough to begin with IMO. Then there is the thought that Seo Jin-ae may find a way to bend the Thargoids to her own will and become their leader and use the Thargoids to exact revenge and/or establish her own Thargoid empire, or they could lead her to believe any of those things..
Keep in mind that I just brought it up as a theory, not given fact. We don’t know for sure if it was the Testament, the Thargoids or something else that blew up the merc(s). Or if Seo has any active control over her connection, as opposed to the Thargoids passively being aware and monitoring her through it.

And the Thargoid queens are sentient. The codex states as much. So I doubt they’d just submit to whatever Seo wills.

Think of the Stone of Orthanc in LOTR. It may be possible for the Thargoids to feed Seo Jin-ae what they want her to see, or vice versa.. Though I agree, the possibilities depend on what the connection actually permits.
 
Oh okay, I see what you're talking about, you're talking about The Yamiks video? Now that you say it it's true that it would probably be the Glaive.
no i dont even like yamiks . you can legit google the alpha script files i can even send them to you if you want them .or you can just read what the game writes in to the ram

That, and the Thargoids would have to be consciously aware of it, plus need to realize she isn’t a Thargoid. Neither of which we know.

Though it seems to be a concern for her, based on some of the things she said in that conversation with Tanner, about how many of her thoughts are actually still her own. (One of a few aspects I’ve mirrored in my own RP, sometimes without knowing of or realizing the similarities until I was recalled of them, but I don’t think that’s a particularly unique aspect for a human with a connection to a non-human hivemind, and it’s not exactly part of the canon anyway so let’s not make that part of the conversation.)

Okay fairly freaky getting interdicted and then boarded by the thargoids. o_O
(super neat that they use lua, didn't know that)
@Planewalker
Can we call it a "doom zoomy"?
Haha that might be it. 😅

If i had a dollar for everything that appeared in game files that never made it into the game.... I'd probably have about $50, but the point still stands...
