masterpiece of an aliens game. its a dam shame the game never got any DLC2 found this helpful
I have never played a game like this. What an immersive experience. I am blown away... and scared2 found this helpful
It is a fun game, but the timer in the end is really annoying and take the fun out of finishing the game.2 found this helpful
game is so full of bugs that will lock you from completing side objectives and paired with the brutal saving system makes it a slog to complete not to mention the BS where aliens will spawn in on a vent just as your guys pass by for a instant detection is disheartening and alot of levels tend to just be unfair BS that require you to throw away everything the game teaches you about stealth and just rush objectives before max patrol size is reached ie the multitude of maps that are narrow winding corridors where your sniper can not be put into play(not that it is easy to get them to work since you cant really command individual squad members) to eliminate the aliens or cultist that are rushing to your area unfun and unnecessarily punishing2 found this helpful
Just the most contrived garbage useless game written by people who have no clue how actual soldiers act! Every Marine has a major defect, and are chickens afraid of their own shadow. You have jack for equipment, and the "upgrades" are almost completely useless. Another we are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who can't program so you have to abuse our garbage AI while we handcap you to make up for the fact we suck as game design! I wouldn't recommend if they paid you!
its a great game. its got a few rough spots and small bugs but an overall complete and solid experience.
