In Response To: Eternal Volunteers - Welcome To Middlesex (Adam Ashwell)

: One thing I'd suggest for this level would be seeing Bobs fight against the
: Pfhor, fighting a losing battle and getting massacred. Again I say this
: because it would create an appropriate atmosphere. Even if there's some
: logical reason that the Bobs are already dead (such as the Pfhor have
: already taken the station), I think often gameplay, smoothness, and
: atmosphere are more important than "making sense" at times.

Having taken control over a station(spaceport) doesn't neccessary mean that all enemies have been wiped out. I'd more think of it as the pfhor has gained access to the rooms where they can operate the spaceport. Unless, they have had control over the spaceport for a long time, then all humans would probably be dead.

I think having bob corpses, blood patterns, and body parts lying around the place would create much more atmosphere. If humans really have been massacred here, don't show that they are massacred, show that they have been massacred. (this is of course a shapes issue, without blood textures and corpse scenery it's not even possible)
