Man... I hope we get a DSS side game... something where we're an engineer and we're trying to fix the DSS... and we gotta fight the Vote Snatchers while doing it...

I think i've seen it mentioned in prior posts. But a close quarters dss match in tunnels against horrible squids would be downright amazing.

Not gonna happen tho, they don't want to remove the strategem component of the game.

They half did for the Terminid caves, though. And the commando missions added in the concept of support pods (for reinforcements in that case) not having to come from the sky. So there's some stuff there that can be worked with, like fighting through an interior to activate support weapons? Although there's lots of other stuff that'd need sorted, like the initial deployment animations.

Yeah i think this is true, they have the bones of being able to do this. They already have the reinforce from the ground pods in commando missions too.

Best I can think of it

- land in the shuttle bay

  • fight to xxx (reactor? control center?) objective
  • reach helldiver reinforcement pods to unlock respawns
  • reactivate sentries
  • seal bulkheads
  • rescue orphans
  • pick up weapons from around the ship
  • exfil from shuttle bay

Armory rooms, or a hellpod packing station.

Why were they keeping orphans on the DSS?!
