David is known for his flowery, overly-extravagant language, and he probably just means Daniels will be the new "doner" for test subjects (taking her eggs). Also Ridley said he's totally ignoring the later films and only building up to the original, which means no queens/hives.
Another thing Ridley said is he wants to gradually re-introduce Giger's aesthetic, and Giger didn't make the queen or had any input in anything related to Aliens/hives/queens. Giger's idea on how the eggs were made was by a large, globular machine attached to a wall, no central Trex-triceratops-termite. But I would love to see Giger's concept be re-introduced into the series, since personally I feel queens/hiveminds/etc are heavily overdone nowadays, almost every single space-based franchise has one, whereas Giger's idea was truly unnerving and much more efficient, and actually felt well, alien. It also seems like something a synthetic would decide to make-a machine that produces the products, much like how David himself was made.
Also its just best to take all bonus material with a grain of salt, as the Prometheus bluray mentioned the derelict on Lv-426andTyrell corp from Blade Runner. The bonus material is almost always just fan service and should not be assumed as canon unless an actual movie refers to it.
I understand your point, but there is another factor involved. For all we know, Fox could have forced Ridley into a corner. Something like "Either have a Queen in your next film or we are never going to greenlight another Alien film from you. We'll finish these prequals without you. Maybe give the last one to the guy who was supposed to make an Alien 5."
However, your explanation doesn't make much sense when you consider the fact that he doesn't say that Shaw was his Queen. Since it's pretty obvious that Shaw was the "doner" for the first eggs, why would he say that Shaw was supposed to be his Queen, but ended up not being it?
I take anything with a grain of salt unless confirmed by the person in charge, which in this case would be either Fox or Ridley, though I question the latter's state of mind at the moment.

It seems they gave Ridley total creative control over the series, and the guy who wanted to make the Aliens sequel said his film is pretty much dead, and he showed 0 interest in the prequels. Not to mention officially Ridley said the next movie will more than likely be more focused around engineers finding out what David did to Paradise, then hunting him down in revenge.
Also keep in mind how crazy David is and how sophisticated and god-like David sees himself as. Of course he's not gonna call Daniels "my egg doner" or "my lab rat", so instead he uses the term "my queen," even though the 2 first ones are much more accurate. He's like a serial killer, so he's gonna use more serial killer-esque language. Also its possible he did once call Shaw "his queen", but like in their time before she died. I guess Shaw died before David was able to conduct all his experiments/she would not let him use her anymore. Apparently a novel is coming out that will detail their "adventures" before Covenant but after Prometheus, so we'll have to see then.
But once again, I'm not considering any bluray-exclusive material as canon/foretelling what will happen next, since scripts always change and of course FOX needs a reason to convince you to buy the disk instead of watching it online, so they include fan service to make you want to buy it, even if the fan service isn't canon. Not to mention the addition of little fan winks like that brews up speculation, thus bring in more clicks, views, etc.
I would say that a queen wouldnt be unlikely. As seen in this offical artwork for Alien Covenant, and used literally everywhere for it, there is something very reminiscent of a queens crest. And I think if a Queen was to appear in the Prequels, I think ridley could execute it rather well.
I don't see a queen in that mess, the shape in the upper-middle ish area which I'm guessing you're referring to looks more like the one mural from Prometheus. Though you can notice what looks like the arms and legs of Big Chap almost emerging from the walls, not one of the fleshier protomorphs, but the OG alien, ribbing, bolts and all, which is a more interesting addition and may actually hold some water, but its probably just there because well, look at it, its super striking and awesome.
Though more than likely its just there to keep up with the classical gods/heaven/hell look. So it less about foretelling the future of the series, more just to create a really cool and striking image based off this, which is called "Gates of Hell"
To change the topic, since I'm done of queen arguing, why not a spoiler to increase the hype?
The first and third pics are old, the 3 Alien-themed suits (other than the white one) will use the darker metal in the middle pic. Also the far-left "Space Oddity" suit will probably only be rare dungeon loot, so if you want it, get huntin'!
And before you ask, yes I plan on eventually making a model for all the armours in the mod (the marine armour is currently being textured), as well as some all-new armours too, such as the Alien 3 "Dog Catcher" suit, though it will probably be called "Enviro Suit." This Enviro Suit will probably be the one to give you immunity to all huggers, possible including trilobites as well, but spores will still be able to infect you.
Enviro Suit sounds cool. Will any of the vehicles from Aliens/Prometheus/Covenant be added? Like the Drop Ship, and the Dune Buggy thing from Prometheus, ETC.
Someone was working on the Dropship, though I'm not sure if its been finished, or even really worked on still
As for the buggy thing, tbh it has never really crossed my mind. Maybe once I finish this wave of new models/textures, I'll take it into consideration
When, is the Covenant Uptade will be out?, and Mob's for it will be maded will be it out for September ;p And I Love your Mod So much, keep going and maybe you will become Great moder etc ;p

We have no ETAs for anything, but the port to 1.10.2 should be out soon. Its a smaller update as it only contains 1 new feature-new Lv-426 spikes+a new block they're made from, and a totally re-worked shaped blocks system.
After that's out, work can begin on the Covenant update. However I can say the Covenant will also be merged with an Isolation-themed update as well, so it may take longer, but we will get more content in the end. We haven't even started on coding the Isolated Coven updated(though I have made nearly all the assets I plan to finish off for this update), but I'm guessing by Halloween.
Side note, it would be better if you joined AvP's Discord if you want the most recent information, on top of spoilers and such
fun fac: y wha playing whit this mod and taumic horizon "addon for thaumcraft" and using the instilled loyality work on xenomorph and on facehugger but if you puch the facehugger it latch on you XD (also it good to have pet ;p)
This is a suggestion. I'm not sure where it's supposed to go so I'm doing it here.
So after playing this mod for a long bit of its development, I must say I enjoy it. However, it is a little more one sided toward aliens and marines. There are only two predator types (I guess two marine types too but they have more active blocks like the medbay). I suggest there be more predator types. Hear me out, this isn't exactly out there. I'm basing it off of the different tech that they hunt with, eg. plasma caster, combi stick, smart disc. This idea comes from the old rts avp game (Alien vs Predator: Extinction).
Essentially there would be a few types of base predator that fight with different weapons. A brawler = melee blades, Hunter = plasma caster, spear master = combi stick, disk thrower = smart disc or shuriken. And finally have a boss type named Clan Leader that has two attacks; a close range and a distance, such as blades and plasma caster or some other ranged attack (maybe a net that locks the player in place for a few seconds).
I know the aliens are cool but the predators deserve some love too. The ones we have are great, just lack the variety of the aliens.

More preds are planned for sure. However, AvP: Extinction is not canon so nothing from it will be added. Instead we have some TBA canon types such as the tracker and falconer, among others, that are waiting to be added.
Also I think the humans themselves are pretty left out. They have the marine mob, which itself spawns rarely, and the combat synth, which doesn't spawn at all. In addition, other than the guns, they don't have many specific items, not counting the machines, since half of them can't be created yet.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT AND POLL
AliensVsPredator for Minecraft 1.10.2 is completed and ready for release. Please vote in the poll below to determine the release date.
I think the marines are being removed. Considering almost anything that spawns in the marines ends up in them messing up. Also, does anyone have a link for the discord?
I can understand them being removed temporarily to fix it, but not removed permanently.
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
I just took the Minecraft Noob test! Check out what I scored. Think you can beat me?!
To take the test, check out https://minecraftnoobtest.com/test.php
