So are xeno random events turned off or something? I could of sworn it happened more often before.. Or it at least, you know.. Happened

You can always get your big game on and meta it.  If the gateway is targeting the abandoned research base you can go there.. find the live face hugger and take your mask off and get infected.. then come back to the station and explode thus starting the xeno infection lol

Pretty sure that's against the rules.

Also, only four peeps on? Really? Come on guys, we need more peeps.

[Lyeos]

Pretty sure that's against the rules.

Nope.

Edit: Rather, go through in a fire suit, it rips the mask off and shoves an egg down your throat.
You don't know in-game that chestbursters are a thing yet, so you can rush back to the station to try to get help for your ruptured lungs. 

Or just die there and Xeno it up before going back through the gateway, so you're grown and have face huggers already. Either way you have to deal with the trigger-happy "Alium-Murder-It!" crew.

Hm.. Is there a specific job for the gateway? Like miner or something?

Think it's some of the heads (Captain, RD), don't think scientists can.
I usually just break in.

E: Anyone can activate the Gateway, just not everyone can open the door and windoor.
See the above solution.

Its the heads, although there is a fancy button to open the thing.

Also, the random event is still in, and wandering in specifically to grab a friendly alien friend and get fun alien worm-babbies would, nine times out of ten, probably get you banned. Depends on what you do with it/how you react/whatever.

Also, I am rather certain that friendly alien friends still spawn randomly on the asteroid, so...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Never seemed to have been a problem before, for myself or the others that have been around longer and done it for longer than me. Though I don't think any of us rush straight for the alium, instead looking around and stealing everything that isn't bolted down collecting things for study.

Plus the gateway is kind of a crapshoot anyways with what you'll get.

I once managed - as traitor, no less - to actually pick up and pocket one of the Super Happy Hug Aliens before it deployed. I ended up using it on myself, I think, then endlessly and pointlessly badgering Objective, who got aliumed, not to fuck it up as I thought he was a pubbie as I didn't recall the char.

What are good IC reasons for going through the gateway? I'm not even 100% sure what it's even for.

Is the captain being a condom? If yes, toss him through the gateway. If no, do it anyway, Ian is better.

I like to use it as an alternate to the death penalty.
