I truly think we will see this as part of EDO. I suspect once the game is fully optimized and ported over to one of the console gens, FDev will announce something like this to jumpstart the community. After trying the foot combat in EDO, I think it could work and be quite fun and scary.

I just can't think of a better way to get the naysayers on board EDO than by announcing thargoid foot combat!

Me too. Thargoids and Guardians on foot would be AWESOME in a level we never saw.
I think they will launch it with console roadmap.

Very much this, Thargoids first person combat is pretty much certainly on hold until the game can be shoehorned in to the previous generation consoles, and given they seem incapable of shoehorning it onto high end PC's yet, maybe our children's children will get to play it.
 
This is a great concept and its actually accurate to the lore for how they are depicted in the books. Dont know how far or close this will be towards the final product but I have to give props to the artist for making this.
 
He made the scanner too.
Genius!HuAhUaHuAHuAhUa
It's an app from App Store :D

Cool pic.
In my mind I always saw Thargoids as more humanoid looking... thanks to Robert Holdstock, but then I was about 12 at the time.

Alex scanned the high walls for a hint of McGreavy's warehouse. As he did so he found himself standing behind two tall, violent-looking insect-forms, their bodies armoured in light grey, their facetted eyes swivelling to stare at him as they talked together, chelicerae clashing and clacking in their peculiar mode of communication.
Alex stepped away, heart beating, blood rushing to his head. Compound eyes, jointed limbs, head antennae, double cutting jaws . . .
Thargoids!
Here, on a space station!
Thargoids were deadly. Thargoid spacers had their fear-glands removed, and were considered to be the most effective and potent of humankind's enemies. The bounty for killing a Thargoid was huge, and for capturing and delivering the juvenile form, the Tharglet, to any Space Navy research centre, even greater.
What were they doing here?
The Thargoids chatted together and watched Alex coldly. Alex noticed that each had an appendage resting on its thoracic plate, where they holstered their hand-lasers.
'Back off,' a voice whispered, and Alex turned. McGreavy stood there blinking through his deformities. Alex had not grasped how short the man was; he only came up as far as Alex's chest.
'Thargoids . . .' he whispered.
'Bull💩,' McGreavy said, and dragged Alex away. 'They're Oresrians, and the one thing that can make an Oresrian deadly is being confused the way you've just confused them, with their deadly enemies the Thargoids. Check the thorax markings and the shape of the fourth joint on each hind leg before you jump to conclusions again . . .'
Alex followed McGreavy gratefully, away from the whispering insects.

Possibly, while on another part of the forum they will be discussing of the imminent (within 2±50 years) release of another game.
 
thargoids are not monsters. They're intelligent beings creating space ships and tools and flying between star systems for millions of years longer than we have.

Portraying them as star ship trooper aliens is a lazy cop-out. One that i hope Fdev doesn't resort to, and one in which they almost definitely will.

Agreed!
But, as in our world, there are animals, as in guardian lore.
That's the beauty... So many possibilities!

The aliens in starship troopers are also an intelligent species that builds living space ships to also fly between stars. Both species are comprised of a lower drone class and an intelligent upper class (queens). I understand you've never read the books and never will; but they are vicious and violent. They even kill off the elder members of their society when they become inconvenient. The thargon swarm interceptors use are living creatures. They litterly launch an entire colony of living creatures and purposefully slam them into an enemy ship and continue to do so until it's dead. Sorry to burst your bubble but the goids are savage, violent, do not respect life and are not the alien Buddhists monks who patiently meditate the mysteries of the universe atop barnacles for millions of years, as you seem to think they are.
