Aliens: Fireteam Elite

The game is okay if you pick it up on sale. It was fun enough to play through the missions once with my son. I think my biggest complaint is that the guns just don't feel like they have any weight to them.

Perfect game for Aliens fans, just mindless violence, shooting Xenos as a Marine with iconic guns like in the movie

plain and simple, no. this was a let down. theres a 360 game that did something similar but had a way better story and combat that felt great. idk the name as its been like a decade lol but it was i think a 5v1 or 5v2 of marines vs aliens and DAMN that was fire. i had no clue what i was doing 90% of the time but it felt amazing story - hardly a thing besides the usual mission ♥♥♥♥ with list of objectives. just throws you straight into it without a clue on who you are, why you are there, what your really doing all this for. just felt like the intro was lost. even if you know some lore stuff on the aliens, i was still lost wondering if i skipped something at some point. OBJs - was expecting something different but its the usual same linear stuff on all chapters with a little twist. run here, hold here, get this, door locked, hold here, find code, open door and repeat till you finish the level. all while trying to camp ammo crate to keep on surviving as you didnt have much ammo or ammo felt like you were shooting a nerf gun. wtf do they give the marines for ammo?? progression - felt okay. weapons had little upgrades that make then ever so slightly better most of the time. attachme…

Well.. I can't give it a negative review... the game itself is playable for sure but it lacks variety in level design. Levels consist of corridors, followed by an encounter room with xenos or synths, another corridor, encounter.. rinse and repeat. I bet using different guns makes unique builds possible but I only played with max level medic and phalanx. I did like phalanx's shield quite a bit. You could tank synth shots and those pesky little exploding crawlers like a boss. Against basic alien grunts and elites it felt a bit lackluster. They could pounce you or use acid spit ect. making it useless. The campaign itself has some lore you could get from intel but otherwise there wasn't a story. All the characters were nameless marines with no real personality. They could have been perked with quirky personalities, like from Aliens movie, Predator ect. I'll give it a mixed review in the end. Action itself is quite fun but monotonic missions and otherwise boring campaign really brings it down.

great game, very fun

I feel it's a good game for Aliens fans but is probably okay for non fans
