Let’s get one thing straight...

The predator with a hole in his chest MOST LIKELY was not a victim of a chestburster. In my opinion, (and many others) this predator is being studied by Stargazer, because we all know that Stargazer has been studying predator technology and physiology. In the Dutch tapes, he says they have a predator captive. Stargazer has most likely taken the predator captive, killed him, performed an autopsy, studied his organs, and you are supposed to blow up the body so they can’t do anymore research. Arguments can be made that this IS a chestburster’s work though, that’s why I said MOST LIKELY it’s not an easter egg. I feel like if we were to see a chestburster easter egg, it would be on a dead predator who is NOT in a building, sort of like how you can find predator skulls in the new map.

I also say it’s not a chestburster easter egg because chestbursters leave holes similar to a tennis ball in size, not the size of the entire torso. Even Neomorphs don’t leave holes that big, and they are even larger than the average chestburster.

In fairness if it was a chestburster it would be a predalien and not a traditional xeno. We havent really gotten many great shots for the type of damage a predalien does on the way out. Tho its likely very similar.

good point

Do you count Mortal Kombat X as partially cannon?

Because if so, you can see how much damage a predalien chestburster does.

I dont know. I dont actually remember the predator canon from that. Can you give me a run down of it?

Edit

Lore not canon

I found BTS footage of how big the predalien chestburster is

looks about the size of a regular chestburster

and you can see the size of the hole it left

Only Neomorphs backbusters and the Deacon has showed the capability to destroy the entire torso while on birth. Xenomorph chestbusters duo to their smaller and slick size, has a much smaller destruction on birth.

It’s clearly an autopsy OP

So you’re saying there’s a chance…YEAH. I read ya

I love xenos

I want them in the game

But even I am not naive enough to think that is a chest burster wound

They make holes just big enough to get out

This Predators whole torso is open

With all his organs clearly missing

I’d face palm but would surely knock myself unconscious with this ridiculousness

Would be cool if it was a xeno, but its not. If they ever dropped a xeno easter egg, I’d hope it would be like it was in CoD ghosts, temples and ruins of predators and aliens locked in combat, maybe a statue you can reach if you do some silly jumps and grenade throws. Just something subtle but also an obvious nod

AVP and AVPR. Its normal sized. (At least in ratio)
