The alt xeno sprites feel too different from what greenos are, even in aliens lore genetically altered xenos don’t look too dissimilar to regular xenos if at all. Although I think slight variations to the current sprites would be cool.
You could also just do away with a friendly hive entirely and make a Rogue xenomorph instead. Or maybe add it as a separate research goal.
I hate to break it to you, but xenomorph can look quite diffrent in lore.
But i agree that we shouldnt use the alt sprites for greenos.
I feel you Steelpoint, but this aint the way to see those badass sprites more in game. I think they would be much better suited for XvX events.
(also fyi, the alt srpites are a bit buggy. So they need to be looked over.)
