Since the CCO wants to keep the predators earth based...why not the killers?

Huh?

The Killers were a tribe of Bad Bloods in the Comic Series “Predator: Prey to the Heavens” who later appeared in the culmination of multiple storylines “AvP: Three World War” as the main antagonists.

I think if Samarai Predator comes with Red & Black colorations (which he probably will let’s all be honest), we can pull of a AvP Killer Yautja off pretty well.

Thanks for filling me in. What’s CCO tho? Earth based? Also that predator looks badass!

I believe they meant Creative Officer/Director, I forget. Basically they mentioned during the latest interview with AVPGalaxy that they would like the game’s scope in terms of locations stay on Earth. Or grounded ideas. Stuff like Bad Bloods or other stuff going into Yautja Affairs seems to be out of their scope for the moment. Doesn’t mean we’ll never see that though.

Lame but prevents them from having to rig creature models and such for hostile planets. Time for stargazer forever

I wouldn’t exactly have a problem with that as all the Stargazer stuff has been heavily implied to be the focus of this game’s “story” which is more of implied story and lore.

Didnt the bad blood comic take place on earth tho?

It did, but I think they want to focus on say Human conflicts such as O.W.L.F vs Stargazer. Not any Predator focused story (not game mode) if that makes any sense. They’d like for others to pick up on stuff they left off, such as the Egyptian style Female Pred that beat Dutch. They even said that they’d like to see even stuff like fanfiction or other stuff by the fans. I personally think she’s connected to Nightstorm and he could possibly return even after all he’s been through. Yautja have lived beyond a 1000 years before consistently.

That’s a bummer to hear but that’s not to say they can’t/won’t add a lot of cool other stuff.

Yea they look very alike am I wrong lmao

He wasn’t saying “keep it earth-bound” in the sense of the location so much (although that definitely skews things that way). It was more that he didn’t want to wade into the mass of speculation and disagreement that would be required to start exploring the predator culture beyond their interactions with humans, which tend to be very simple.

Basically, focus on them while they’re on safari, rather than their day jobs, marital issues, and tax situation. Very wise, AFAIC. That said, introducing a location like the game preserve from Predators wouldn’t really require exploring predator culture any more deeply than the scenarios already present in the game.

CCO stands for Chief Creative Officer. I live in corporate America as a senior graphic designer.

When and where did CCO state they planned to keep the game Earthbound, just out of curiosity?

… stay on earth, well, very well … how about the Assassin Pred, (movie 2010) … he would have come to earth :)
… as far as I’m concerned, the puppies can stay in the shuttle;)

Nope he didn’t explicitly state he wanted to keep them on Earth but yes in not so many words. He won’t be exploring too much of alien worlds because for a game it opens up a massive can of worms which not he alone or his team can do. STuff like that requires teams of writers with piles upon piles of script.
They will keep it fairly light much like the first film. Set in the jungle with relatively light profile characters. Stated mostly keeping on explaining the Stargazer stuff.

This was all in the podcast over at AVPGalaxy if you follow that nerdy stuff. Not me, i’m nacho man!
