I doult industrials would use meetles. They would have tro feed the larve fruit and hug them every so often, and we all know industrials don't want to waste time doing that. ;)

If industrialists designed the technology behind Slig pants, I don't think developing a way to ride Mugs would be much of a challenge.

I would have thought the Vykkers invented slig pants, i'm not that sure thought...

I bet I know how they'd do it, too. They'd hook up a harness, both imbedded in the Mug's body and on the outside, with extra mechanics (joints, hydrolics) attached to the wings, with a cockpit in the center for Sligs. They'd most likely force the Mug to fly against its will (making for a good plotline as well).

IDEA FART LOLZ

You know, I'm surprised how many people said they want to see Abe in the next game...Don't people realize that Abe's major part of the story is overwith? We need a new character, and a complete revamp of the story, especially with stuff like Munch's Oddysee, Stranger's Wrath, and the threat/promise of Fangus...I feel like Oddworld should start over, while still getting back to what made both Abe games the masterpieces that they were...

abe is THE quintology hero... we haven't done with him any soon ;)

That's good to hear by my standers :D

If Abe leaves, I reckon he should actually DIE ie a FMV with his death. So maybe Abe starts an adventure with Squeek or some other and along the way Abe dies. Fleshing out the turncoat Slig idea:

Slig born, has strange power of electric shocks with his hand (default ammo)
Slig escapes from birthing complex, meets Abe.
Slig and Abe want to end Skillya's maltreatment of the Sligs, have to find way to stop Skillya's domination.
Ends on spaceship, Abe captured and executed.
Slig blows spaceship and finds is next Slig queen

ABE IS SO COOL HE NEEDS MORE TALKIN IN THE GAME MOVIES

No he doesn't, his character is supposed to be meek and somewhat dim witted. More talking would break that boundary of character.

Oh yeah I forgot the Slig frees Fleeches and watches them devour his enemies...might make the game MA rated though

Mabey I'm a bit dim witted but when was this?

I'm not sure that's accurate, why would sligs capture them in the first place?

Why doesn't the slig just shoot it's enemies? that would be easier

Or maby nthe slig can get grenades! Now that would be cool. They should of gave sligs grenades in MO. Sort of like the grenades flying sligs had in AE.

That would make sligs easy to run away from, which would totally destroy the need for sneaking

It would still be cool though

They should bring back Flying Sligs though. They were cool. And if Flying Sligs had guns it would have made any game impossible

Edit: The player slig would obviously not have an unlimited-ammo gun silly, that's why I suggested shocks

Ok, now i get you

The fleech thing was just a thought as to what he could save to fit the general "saving things" scheme involved in the quintology.

Ahh... now i get you even more... but the fleeches try to kill people and are evil...

I HATE fleeches! They're almost impossible to get past. But on the other hand, it would be cool to posses a fleech.

Glukinator fleech control would be a major part of the game the Slig would have to not let the fleeches near Abe

But the fleech fleech would eat the slig

Haven't you ever played AE? Fleeches don't eat sligs... only everything else

A fleech never went near a slig in AE. Sligs and fleeches weren't even in the same levels. So we don't know if that would ever happen.

Wrong.

When were they in the same level?

You can't shoot fleeches, I tried to once the bullets just fly right over them. I can't remember what happened after that, I think tghe Slig became lunch.

If you want the level, then I think it was in the Mudomo Vaults.

It is in one of the vaults, don't know which one thought and it's the final test i think, it's when the slig has to shoot the slogs without going near abe, i found it hard the first time.

And Magic9mushroom i have played AE and the fleeches eat abe because he has more meat on him than the slig...probably...

I think Fleeches would attack the closest thing as long as it was edible, ergo Sligs aren't edible
