First xeno to spawn, obligation to potential future xenos?

[Aurx]

In the event an alien spawns, either by facehugger from mining, adminbus, or some other cause, is the first alien to spawn obligated in any way to the potential future aliens that it could spawn?

For example, could the alien attempt "friendly" contact with the captain via alien whisper, knowing full well that it'd likely get shot to death without being listened to?
Could the alien say "fuck it this round doesn't need xenos" and go hunter to live fast and die hard?
Could the alien say "I just want to autism on the derelict, time to spam walls and never lay eggs"?

They should be able to do whatever they want.
Of course if an admins spawns an alien and tells him to do what Aliens do you're expected to y'know set up a colony and all of that because the admin spawned you in for a reason and it's probably in your best interested to do what he says but if you get randomly spawned in? Fair game for all.

If the Alien is just randomly selected with no admin intervention, I think that player has free will to go about however they want. They want to re-enact the first aliens movie? Go ahead, that would actually be interesting.

However, as noted above, a admin spawned alien has an obligation to infect and spread the hive.

I still think a alternative game mode that spawned a special Hunter Alien would be an interesting alternative to 50 Aliens versus some unlucky crew members, or one Durand versus some unlucky aliens. So you can keep the normal Alien mode for when a lot of people are dead and the round is getting stale.

I agree with everyone. Its their choice on how they evolve. However be prepared for some mad players in deadchat if you go anything other than Drone/Queen.

I agree with everyone.

I...

Anyway, I think as has been said, if its random then up to you. If its admin selected, your normal expect to RP a xeno and actually try to setup a hive and spread and consume. Thats what and all they "know" to do. So RP it, it can be awesome when you have a full fledge hive going with a proper team.
