Goddamn I'm disappointed
>story and FMVs are REALLY bad
>gameplay is uninspired with repetitive objectives
>weapons are shit and feel like shit
>graphics are fucking inconsistent, devs couldn't decide if they wanted sprites or 3d models, pixelated or hires textures
>bug campaign is just a tedious and boring reuse of assets to pad out the game length
>YOU GET TO FIGHT LIKE 6 ENEMIES MAX AT ANY GIVEN TIME, IN A STARSHIP TROOPERS GAME
Fuck bros, when will we get a good Starship troopers fps, I was so hyped for this
>>
How did they fuck THIS up, it should have been the easiest recipe for a solid horde shooter ala serious sam
>>
>>735141287
didn't the boltgun devs make this?
>>
>>735141649
Yeah and that's why I had my hopes up. Now I just hope Boltgun 2 delivers.

The 2005 game is great

>>735141287
Just play Helldivers 2

HELL NO

>>735141901
You know what, fuck it, I'm downloading it because it has some good moments
Not a whole lot, but it's probably still the 2nd best game in the setting next to Terran command

>YOU GET TO FIGHT LIKE 6 ENEMIES MAX AT ANY GIVEN TIME
You're joking, no way that's true.

I wanted to make a thread about this game asking for /v/'s consensus but now I don't have to. I still want to try it because you faggots tend to exaggerate your issues all the time.
>>
>>735143156
yeah that's really bad.
good reviews say it's like DOOM but i guess they must mean one of the casualized new ones i haven't played
>>
>>735143510
congrats on the empty useless post that says nothing to nobody.
here's your (You), buy yourself something nice

If you were hyped for this you have no balls, this shit and Extermination are terrible for similar and different reasons.

A big part of them is the dogshit cluttered HUD filled with useless info and fucking hitmarkers when you're shooting at hordes and giant enemies.
>>
For me it's how everything is 2000's style 3D but the allied soldiers are RETROOOOOOO 2D sprites for some reason

You can look up a playthrough, I doubt I've seen more than 10 enemies at once though
I also forgot to mention the game lacks Basil's iconic music too, and any suitable replacement for it
>>735143510
>I still want to try it
By all means go ahead my nigra, it's in my interest to shill ST games and retro shooters so devs will make more, even though I can't recommend this one with good conscience
The demo is free, you can try that out for yourself
my only gripe with it is they chose the least Starship troopers esque level (a beachside vacation resort??) to demonstrate the game
They should have gone with a Klendathu or Planet P one
>>
>>735144059
>look up a playthrough of a game that released yesterday
great way to wade through endless swathes of prerelease promos from no-name vidya 'news' channels
>>
>>735143887
Of course I was hyped for it, they're based on some of my favorite movies (ST2 is great too) and the setting is perfect for a vidya adaptation
Should be impossible to fumble but they do it again and again
>>735144237
I can't be assed to make a webm today

first time?

>>735144282
ST being great doesn't mean the devs/publishers licensing the IP from Sony, aren't braindead cocksuckers.
>>
>>735143510
There is a demo that has exactly 1 level and the most I can say about it is that it is an fps shooter. It has a strange squad mechanic thing going on but the AI teammates are often brain dead, you can damage them by accident, and the guns often feel like they have slightly less ammo then they should have on top of a reload system. You get occasional drop pods filled with resupplies and a new gun every so often so the devs clearly realized they didn't give you enough ammo natively so you have to keep using the resupply pods if you want to not run dry, which definitely feels like it can happen quite often.

Enemies are bugs, they're not smart, only occasionally swarm, and the tankers are just bullet sponges that you don't get any appreciable way to kill them fast because the demo didn't have a heavy weapon, just some middling "call in" artillery and air strikes that largely missed their mark.

4/10 the demo didn't sell me on the game.

Chvdbros, our response?

my reply has (You) sarcasm and a silly gif.
i have contributed mirth.
>>
>>735144840
>i have contributed mirth.
your post has invoked sadness in me tho
>>
>>735143156
It's true, also what's even funnier is that 2005 ST FPS game has a far more accurate presentation of what the bug swarms are meant to be like in-universe.
>>
>>735143156
It's true. The game does try to act like there is more but the reality is those are 2D background sprites. The levels are also super barren where most of the time you will be running between objectives and seeing maybe 1 to 2 bugs.

They could have at least picked a cute girl for the fmv's.

I don't know why you had expectations. This franchise has never resulted in a good video game.
