If there happens to be any other Aliens fans lurking around the EiRR forums, then here's a touch of good and bad news. The good news is that they've released an extremely good cinematic trailer (Apparently based off the in game assets, so hopefully, this means they've fixed a few things people have been up in arms about...)

The bad news? Delayed until Fall, but hopefully that turns out to be a silver lining in that they do it right.

Lets hope Gearbox don't pull a DNF on us with this one, as I'm looking forward to this more than I ever did DNF tbh.

I sure hope they wont fail with this one.

Plus I SERIOUSLY HOPE IT HAS TEAM WORK IN IT

even if its with NPC. It is BORING to run the hallways alone and you're supposed to be a Marine. Hell yeah.

[Demon767]

ever heard of "America, fuck yeah!"

i dont think they are going to have team work in it XD

Which is why avp was so terrible, i hope they learn from that. (yes i do realize this one is strictly in the aliens uni)

preds 1-3

marines 5-10

aliens 1000's

I want a pure co-op campaign , gearbox did do brothers in arms and borderlands

[Demon767]

What they need to fix from AVP is-


Slower gameplay in aim for a more horror game - less run and gun - having a aim reticle that largens as you run, so it promotes walking for extremely increased accuracy

Better player animation + better internet player animation (you know, no glitching animation)

Space station maps? or ground station maps? you know, the Marine campaign in AVP, lots of maps involving that, or similar to the trailer for colonial marines. Darker areas, more use of the flashlight OH and flashlight physics.

Weaker aliens then from avp, so there is the ability for an increased amount of aliens attacking, swarms, maybe something similar to Left4dead, where at certian points, or at random, a massive swarm attacks, so marines are back to back defending position, maybe in a tunnel and all that jazz.

maybe if there was coop play, aliens have 3 AI alieans under there command, so they tell them to attack aswell, so intead of 8 marines vs 8 aliens, its 8 marines vs 24 aliens.

anyways...

The campaign will be fully co-op enabled as far as I'm aware.

Gearbox have a fairly good track record until they trashed Duke Nukem Forever tbh. So as long as that was a one time cock up, A:CM should be in fairly competent hands.

Should be.

lol i wish demon was in charge of it right now

also what was up with the pred spear change i mean wtf?

AvP 2 was so badass with the melee

[Demon767]

[Spartan_Marine88]

yep i am seeing them all and waiting impatiently

[Sachaztan]

I accidently my pants.

Been waiting on this game since forever, like really forever. (When was this first announced, 2008 or something?)
It sounds like co-op is going to be potentially epic, hope they don't fuck it up. Or were they actually stupid enough to scrap co-op? Jesus, that'd be a stupid move.

Co-op will be two player only.... cos of the console tards..... =(

Where did you hear this? I've been trawling the A:CM gearbox forums for a while and haven't stumbled upon such info.

Been waiting for A:CM since the scrapped PS2 version tbh.

[roflmao]

At first I was like "Awww yeah!" (no meme intended).

But then I saw the gameplay trailers and they just looked like generic FPS 10,000.

Meh. Not too hyped.

I think your out of date.

Alot of the co-op games on console follow the 2 players splitscreen, 4 players online

[Scotzmen]

I don't like it when the uses seasons to tell you the release date. Becuase its summer here, and its fall next, if i remember my seasons correctly from primary school.

[Spartan_Marine88]

Well its winter in the area that controls business

Sorry, it was just a rage post about console ports ruining my gaming experience potential.

BF3 has 2p Coop.  Not that its a big thing, but I just hope it doesnt happen to this, because 4p Coop is exactly what would be awesome sauce for a fire-squad vs aliens.

[Scotzmen]

lol this is were it gets annoying!
