If I remember correctly, they tried to communicate or surrender, but the formics and humans were outright incapable of communicating. In the end, it is revealed they communicate through biological ansible, the faster-than-light communications used by humanity. Which also, as another tragedy, means the tool for communicating with them was easily available right there at arm's reach the whole time and no one on either side ever realized it.

That is the dark forest of what things could be for a interstellar species

@@midgetydeath I see it as psychowarfare performed by the Queen against what she deemed another king-like figure. In books, they were incapable of understanding individualism hence the pit of misunderstanding - the Queen either didn't care or didn't want to understand that a loss of individual human has deeper impact than a loss of one of her units. IIRC the formics even attacked Earth so if they wanted to surrender so badly there could be several options none of which they ever tried to explore. The Queen never considered leaving her main planet, abandoning colonies near human border. She focused on the main character and attacked his mind, and she was nearly successful. The peace was either a fluke or wouldn't work. The only tragic thing for me is that no one explained it to Ender, he looked kinda sad but he should've felt rightfully victorious. He did a good job.

The realization that the Queens knew they were tactically out matched. Even if they were pacifist, they knew that they were going to be destroyed. So they created a queen cell and left it in a place only Ender would recognize. They could think to him, but he couldn't understand it in time...

@@williammcdowell3718 they were so pacifist they never even tried to stop attacking or, like, leaving the colonies near humans border, or learn sign language, naw. They just attacked who they deemed was the Queen of humans - the one commanding the fleet of units, just like their own. And they almost won.

@@queterian1526 They were trying to communicate in a nature that they thought humans communicated, and that was an incorrect assumption. In their culture, they way you announced yourself is by drones killing another drone. But the queen's never considered that each human is like a queen and not a drone. They would have never killed what they thought of as a conscience thinking being. Drone are not thinking beings in their culture, they made the mistake in thinking human culture was similar to theirs.

@@williammcdowell3718 encountering another species they never considered to first understand _our_ culture, they only started to change their ways when they got slapped back. Hence, they undestand only power, have primitive, animalistic motivations and the peace wouldn't work. They never even considered learning _our_ language, or try to invent other ways of communications, they had 50 years and did _nothing_ . Ender did a right thing and should be proud for that.

@@queterian1526 They did try to communicate. Something the movie didn't convey well, but they did try to communicate with Ender. They were trying to stop the conflict. They tried to communicate with Ender directly.

That part was kinda weak.

Or maybe they are in the brink of Defeat and out of missiles. so Doing a kamekaze attack seems to be an option.

That an Independence Day reference

Kamikaze reference

“HELLO BOYS! I’M BAAAAAAAAAACK!!!”

We will.... In the future

Go up to the Bremerton navy yard near Seattle and you will be impressed with what we can already do.

@@thegigglessniggles5072 Imagine what we could do after only a few decades of growth.

I really hope you have poor imagination if your idea of decades of growth is big scale space wars. That's the definition of waste in my opinion.

@@dariofacchini851 hopefully the future won’t have rude people…. Then we won’t need war and conflict, but here you are

I think it was explained in the film, the swarm seemed all random but there's was a pattern in that swarm, right in the dead center it was empty. The pilot knew this forehand and took cover in the cloud and got right into dead center and up, this was not pilot's first battle as well, Mazer Rackham(Pilot) and some of his crew mates survived the previous battle with Formics.

Uh nbbhbbgb

@@Tate525 no... he watched independence day

the pilot is Mazer rackham and he was pretty good but in the book i Think he didn't fly a fighter jet nor did this battle happen near earth but Earth

No.
