Give us Xenos mode back.

I mean sure, why not. But at that point i have to wonder if it's worth the coding (range detection, visual indicator, make NPC huggers follow the queen ...) considering that a player honsetly wouldn't be able to perfom better than a NPC. At this point you can just stick to the queen and jump nearby targets. Considering that a queen usually does not move that much you could just have the stationary facehugger NPCs that also jumps intruders atomagicly. Also the facehuggers beeing linked to the Queen would be a obvious meta tell that if you see a facehugger, then there is a queen nearby.

 

The great part about PC facehuggers is that they can roam the station and create panic and generate new xenos while not giving up the position of the nest (ventcrawl), which is a critical advantage. But this freedom and versatility is also the main downsite of PC facehuggers, because it usually leads to meta gaming like searching the perfect target as ghost or go after someone because you hold a grudge.
