The Thargoid discussion thread now with extra Thargoids !!!

[Ydiss]

Ask them if they want to pay me to kill something.

If they refuse, find out who wants to pay me to kill them.

 

[Poseidal]

Sell the footage/story to the highest bidder among the major powers / new networks, then get interviewed on Celebrity Pets.

 

[Vingtetun]

I will be asking them what in blazes that Unknown Artifact is and whether they've ever met a Space Texan.

 

[CMDR MAIN SEQUENCE]

I'd say hey Mr Thargoid, I think you dropped something...

I imagine it would be along the lines of this old game intro

Jokes aside, I'd spam the screenshot button and risk death to bring proof of them and claim eternal glory.

That is still a brilliant (character models aside!) intro, still one of my all time favourites and still looks ace after all this time, what is it ? 16 years ?

 

[Patrick_68000]

No I do not want to become as him

 

[Rubbernuke]

Or be like Keffer from Babylon 5....his obsession got him killed filming 'them'.

And that Free space into still is Amazing. I also love the intro to the second game, despite it being less Shivan and more brooding.

Do some NPCs glow red when they die?

 

[kile]

I'd probably ask the ship crew to bring me my brown pants...

 

[Ian Skippy]

I'd just point them towards Imperial space and whish them a pleasant day.

 

[catanonia]

Change to red alert, but that would mean changing the light bulb

 

[barneby]

ask questions on forum about what others would do in my position?

 

[CYB34]

There are Thargoids in the world???!!!111
FML back to playing EVE.

 

[Ulysses_W]

It's a pity that there's no in game facility to report such a finding to 'the authorities'.

 

[Nicodemus]

I'd run, then run a bit more.. and a bit more.. put as many innocent people between me and them.. and still feel like....

 

[knowles2]

Take a screenshot and get the hell out of there. Be happy that I might have been the first to achieve something in this game. I wouldn't spoil it for anyone else, discovering something for the first time without being spoiled is always better, so I wouldn't spoil it for anyone else.

 

[Munial]

I for one hope they employ some kind of stream jamming, screencap blocking tech so that all we have are crazy tales from wide eyed explorers without a shred of documentary evidence...

 

[Time Streamer]

Yep. 17 actually.

 

[Ian Phillips]

Not thargoids but still....

Probably wet myself then run away as fast as possible.

 

[CMDR Beltane]

Well uhm.... make a Selfie?
