  • Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a budget shooter that spends every dollar exactly where it needs to be spent. The result is one of the better Aliens games ever released, and a surprisingly worthwhile coop shooter to boot. Some technical and design issues aside - this is a very solid pick up, especially at the price point. I recommend it.
    Thanks to Focus Home Interactive for the review code

      I suspect that's why Alien Isolation didn't sell as well as it should of. Too many people were, understandably, sceptical and unwilling to pay full price for what could of been another let down. IGN's infamous review certainly didn't help either (sorry, I had to get that in there. Still one of the worst reviews I've read).

      It's like the opposite of Back 4 Blood and dev's trying to do things differently, even though player base just wants basics done right. And not trying to sell season passes and other bullshit right out of the gate. If the game is good, eventually players will beg to pay for more content.

      Our game has a ton of de-compression on the backload so the stronger systems are able to load things in quicker than a lower-end machine.

      Yes! Nowadays everything needs to be a massive production, or it's indie. We need more AA games because this is what will really push _gaming_ forward, not just graphics and technology. Studios with enough talent to make close-to-AAA quality with a properly limited scope-they're free to create cutting-edge games while also taking risks and following their hearts where it matters. I remember playing Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice and really feeling the power of this.

    In some ways this game feels like it's from a different time, where you could just put out a simple, effective multiplayer title without being f2p, crazy microtransactions, or ambitions to takeover our lives as a live service.
    I am intrigued but I'd want to play with friends, and convincing my friends to buy a game to play multiplayer is hard, when there are so many f2p games or gamepass titles for us to play. It's a shame.

    I played this game with my friend a while back. I remember it being kinda jenky and unpolished. You could definitely see the areas where they had to cut corners due to budgetary constraints and I remember thinking "man I wish they had done that instead" or "if that had done this it would have been awesome". And dying right at the end of a mission and having to start over was immensely frustrating.
    That said, the game was what a game should be: FUN. Despite all its problems, the underlying gameplay loop was a lot of fun and made me want to keep playing or jump back in.
    I toyed around with classes but always came back to the heavy gunner, my friend almost always rocked the technician. His sentry turrets saved out butts many times while my smart gun racked up the alien body count.

      Yep. I was uncertain after seeing the general reception being mild, but saw "I recommend" and immediately thought "Alright, so I'll enjoy it."

      If you enjoy Left 4 Dead, or World War Z, then you'll definitely like this game. It's not a game that tries to reinvent the wheel, but what it does, it does very well, which is It's gunplay and Alien killing.

    This feels like a so much better review than IGN gave. I feel like I'm having a friend explain this game to me and why they enjoy it.

      The IGN review sucked ass. Didn't even mention half the stuff Skill-Up did. Thank God we have actual competent reviewers on TH-cam.

    Wow, ACG roasted this game. Interesting.

      Looking at the gameplay videos I'm more inclined to agree with ACG on this one. Watching gameplay without commentary shows the gunplay to have little weight or impact, and there is no question the set design is super uninspired and repetitive.

    Massively shocked seeing that title. I thought it was gonna be a total flop by the sheer concept. Good to see I was proven wrong!

    The game looks fun, except for those huge red kill markers.

    Very good to hear you recommend this game. Been itching for survival games since the Back for Blood beta. This should be a good time sink untill it releases
