leaning shooter".
That's mainly because the crew in the first film weren't remotely equipped to deal with them.
Agreed. We've been in a weird pocket ever since the whole BR fad really took off, I feel. Of course COVID didn't really help any of that either.
Yuuuup. For whatever reason a lot of people pictured them as unstoppable killing machines, and they're not. With the right firepower of course, haha.
Ya this is actually weirdly surprising. I was guessing low 40's at most(which is where the actual curve for suggesting it is there). So thats good if it keeps them going so they can fix and patch everything. Content patches would be great as well.Can’t say I’m at all shocked of the scores it has received nor am I let down:
Aliens: Fireteam Elite Reviews

I'm 49 fyi. What we probably should agree on is that this breaks down to semantics. IMO, "cooperative third-person survival shooter" does not give me the impression it's a "arcade
We can agree to disagree. Cheers!
Hahah thats just one thing but you can ignore it. Just don't concentrate on it.
No need to study evolution of video games. I've played almost every system since the original PONG. In the end, like I said it's semantics.
We're bumping heads over differing opinions. I've said all I have to say here and yes, no hard feelings at all. I'm going to buy the game as
I'm a die-hard ALIEN(S) fan.
Really? I've actually seen more 8.0s than anything. It's just all up to the viewer/readers preference and who gets their views and clicks.
A lot of those were YouTube reviews with a fairly large following though. Half of the outlets on Opencritic and Metacritic I've never heard of, lmao. Like the ONE person that anchored the score by giving it a 3.5. There's always one, it's why I don't care for those platforms.
The same people who herald industry reviews as the 'end all be all' seem to forget that IGN gave Cyberpunk a 9.9 btw.
Huh?
Cool! Fantastic movieI would rather watch Alien 1979 than playing Iso 2 and I am not even a fan of this movie.
Just because it isn't Alien Isolation 2 doesn't mean it's trash.
I'm more basing it off reviews being pretty mediocre thus far. It's sitting at a 70-72 across consoles on Metacritic, and it's dropping. If it was a great game, I'd be all for it. I'm always for more Alien media. As far as I can tell though, we're losing out.Just because it isn't Alien Isolation 2 doesn't mean it's trash.
Alien had a great game, Aliens deserves something decent (or at least better than) Colonial Marines.
Though I still hope Isolation 2 could still happen someday.
Well, for a first time indie/AA dev handling a huge IP with a AA budget, I personally think they're fairing pretty well. The Metacritic score was anchored by ONE extremely low rating, everything else sits at 70-80 for the most part. I've personally seen more 8/10 or 80s than anything. Which means average/slightly above average. I just wish people would stop giving Metacritic and Opencritic so much praise, half the outlets no one has even heard of and they don't even know how reputable they are. They just see numbers and colors and immediately let it affect their personal opinion.
I'm unfortunately still waiting for mine.
Got wiped on the last bit of the third mission of the first campaign.
Maybe I shouldn't have activated the "spawns more xenos" challenge card...
That was one thing I noticed in videos that I'm not a big fan of, the whole "mouse UI" thing. It's a minor gripe, but man, it's never changed. I can't remember a title that did it in a way where it felt "good" or even fitting. It always felt off or floaty to me. I'll never understand it, lol.
Especially when the game has little fiddly buttons to press like this one. It's just terrible.
Nice. Game won points with me.
Nice!
And there's nothing wrong with that! Hell, its retail price is the cost of a single meal at some places for my gf & I, and that's something that doesn't last forever!
hype is dead.
