Illfonics Twitter Question: The Excavation Secrets Analysis

Maybe.

Not quite…tooth that being the incisors are pointing downward on that cat…and their eye sockets on those cats are closer to the nasal.
And defninitely the nasal bone passage way of that cat is much more wider vertically.

Applause though…thank you for your inquiry.

But really since none of these are intact i’m convinced they were all taken out by a third party at this point. Whether the primitives and the preds were working together to not die is a big question IMO especially since everything was buried together at each site.

The human skulls still has the spine attached, which could mean that they were trophies for the Predators, but why bury Predator skulls next to them? Unless it’s a bigger Predator who collected human trophies, Yautja-Predator trophies and random beast trophies?
But why here!? At this shitty location to the north. xD

What’s the name of the objective to unlock the door to the building where the predator body is inside?
EDIT: Nvm, it just popped up now, i never got it until now, it’s called DISCOVERY.

Concerning the Predator body, what happened to it?
Judging by the green blood on the wall, surgical cover and floor it seems as if there has been some kind of explosion, as if a Xenomorph chestburster has come out of the body. The hacksaw next to the Predator’s head has no blood on the blade, which means it either has not been used or has been cleaned. Something tells me that the surgeon was about to dissect the Predator body when the chestburster came out from it, but still, there’s no sign of a chestburster in the room and there is no visible signs of an escape route, unless the door was open when this happened.

So, will we be seeing Xenomorphs in the future? Or was this only a false alarm?

They say its an autopsy, and as you can see, they’ve already removed some organs. That’s not really chestburster splatter, more like trying to get this done quickly before Voodoo shows up and kills everyone.

Have you seen how ribs are broken during dissection after they saw through the chest? Not a chestburster making a neat little square. Just human scientists trying to get past a giant alien ribcage.

Who said that it was an autopsy? I don’t remember what Zeus and the objective said when i did this.
I think this could have been one of two events.

  • Autopsy, but where are the missing organs and why is the hacksaw and the pair of scissors not bloody then, why bother cleaning the tools if they would have been in a hurry?

  • Chestburster.
    You mention that there is not typical splatter caused by a chestburster, but what is typical then?

Cinematic engineer working on the mission was also in a hurry xd. Safe to say the organs are long gone, probably going to end up in someone’s eternal youth serum.

And lol @ zeus just blowing up the rest of the body

In Predators they (super Predators) just left the Crucified Predator’s head and another skull can be seen just on the ground. Given the state of the camp it’s possible they just don’t care about clean up since they left a lot of bodies laying around.

Well, the organs were taken, obviously. Otherwise they would be there, chestburster or not. As to the tools, considering how rushed the map is, it was something overlooked. I mean, two thirds of the missions are word for word repeats of other missions, and they didn’t even finish with the body itself. But if you think that’s intentional, then the next question of, do you know how many tools are involved in an autopsy? They brought the hacksaw incase the bone saw wasn’t enough, and since they were in a hurry, they didn’t bag what they didn’t use.

As to it not being a chestburster, not enough actual splatter, way too big of a hole.

Am I the only seeing a giant wishbone and t-rex skull in there with it all or are we all just worried about humans and yuatja?

Or eaten.

I don’t know how many tools are used in an autopsy, but i guess it’s more than 2(pair of scissors and a hack saw).

How do we know that they were in a hurry? Could they have predicted that the Fireteam would infiltrate this very moment?
I don’t think anyone would try hurry up an autopsy of an alien lifeform which you never have managed to lay your hands on before. It would be of more importance to bring the body to a proper lab with proper pathologists and not archaeologists who doesn’t know anything of dissecting a body.

Another thing to discuss is how they found the body? Did they kill it? Or was it found dead somewhere.

Fuckin eh! Yeah, the current lore has been about blood being the prize possession.
There may be some interesting things about organs too. And since evidence was pointing to an early native jungle tribe in the excavation with pots (pots being something Egyptians would place organs into) there might be a ritual they were performing on organs.
Eating them might give them powers to be healed among other things.

Maybe Stargazer was taking out organs and eating them?

I ment eaten by chestburster. But yeah, why not, District 9 movie, right? :D

I agree about the chestburster alien. There isnt alot of detail in this room in terms of what happned, so a chestburster would have obvious signs …like hole size and blood trails leading out through to somewhere.
No evidence here that concludes this.

Just because the hacksaw and scissors are clean doesnt mean to conclude that they didnt use it. We dont knw if blood would just slide off of metal surfaces because it could.
Its intentional for us to see that they were going to use it. I think that would be all.
Most of the onsite tools were there to setup the buildings so I dont think they intended on finding this body to autopsy. I think this isn’t even a proper medical room too. A blue tarp on the floor might indicate that is was impromptu and fresh.

Hole is way too big for a chestbuster, come on now.

For the record there is a comic already on this rich guy who’s paying good money to eat predators. Organs/blood etc have value. Even the serum arnie is given
