Let's hope that once we're able to interact when they're near, no moron tries to shoot them down. Then again, knowing us, yeap, that's what's going to happen.

The video I saw the poor sods ship was disabled. Similar to what happened to the experimentalist that honked the Unknown Probe.

Never mind shooting first, it might be we don't get the opportunity :/

You could shoot at it as it's leaving... if you can keep up.

The Developers said that initial first contact would determine their hostility towards us- yet to be seen if first contact meant the barnacles or something like this. Absolutely wild though. Super terrifying.

Feels like Thargoids...

Just a speculation, but I believe anyone wanting to have some interactions with Thargoid's best haul ass to Colonia.

I don't find it a coincidence now that I think about it, that Jacque's had a big ship 'failure' out there, that he was an integral part of the original lore, that FDev and crew have been hankering to get people to make the trek, and now this.

I have a feeling the players in Colonia are going to be really lucky (unlucky?) they stuck around. If the Alien's were going to be slowly introduced, it would make sense they start with the smaller colony first.

This... just... got... interesting.
