Aliens: Colonial Marines is a first person shooter that supports 4 player coop gameplay. This game world is larger than the earlier AVP. Colonial Marines is more oriented towards eliminating aliens which are abundant. Weapons are a basic assault gun and pistol. The gameplay and artwork are based on the Aliens film. The game was developed with the Unreal 3 engine. The game assets have been criticized for low resolution textures and weak lighting. The PC version is considered to be more polished. The game sold well on the PS3 and Xbox 360. I played this on my Dell XPS 9570 with GTX 1050 Ti Max Q graphics. At 4K UHD the game's limitations are very apparent.
A janky but groundbreaking contender for 2003's Game Of The Year, except it came out a decade after that. Ignoring when it was released and taking it at current value, I still don't think I recommend it; even at steep discount. I'll start with the good points: there's some interesting direction in the art style that did catch my eye - the colour palette and occasional washed-out nature of the environs felt faithful to the 1986 movie Aliens, and the almost-obnoxious glare effect caused lighting is an intentional choice that fits the atmosphere. It feels somewhere between watching it through the helmet cams they wore, or viewing the world through a grimy visor that needs a good wash only slightly less than you do. With regards to the weapons: I'm always happy to hear an M41A pulse rifle sound and am not disappointed there, and I feel like the really terrible accuracy and swaying sight picture feels like someone scared ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ in combat against an enemy they previously could never comprehend. However. At some point in development the studio pushed so hard for a co-op focus that it detracts from the single player experience. When you die, you have to wait an inordinately long time to respawn, staring at a grey filter over a third person camera looking at your dead body. It shows in the menus and the weird levelling/progression systems; like you're being punished for playing this in the 2020s on a computer rather than on an og xbox and a couch with some buddies. The story feels rushed, the starting characters have never encountered xenomorphs but quickly get up to date with lifecycle and biology. There's some moments of character development but little enough that they feel like 2-dimensional pastiches of Gears Of War. Everything happens so quickly, a constant rush and each major plot point/twist doesn't have enough attention devoted to make it feel meaningful and it's all over relatively quickly. I do love that Lance Henriksen and Michael Biehn could reprise their roles but their efforts are tainted by shocking audio mixing for voices.
Difficile d'apprécié ce jeu quand on a déjà joué à Alien vs Predator, il est meilleur en tout. Je comprend mieux la mauvaise note qu'il a reçu à l'époque car le jeu à beaucoup de défauts pour un jeu sortie en 2012. L'histoire est vraiment basique et très peu intéressante dès le début, graphiquement le jeu est vraiment moyen mais le pire.. ça reste l'ia qui est vraiment mauvaise.. Car l'ia du jeu se résume à attaquer en vague sans aucune stratégie. Les comportements des Aliens qui ne ressemble pas aux Aliens des films. Aucune attaque depuis les murs, les plafonds. Non ils vont juste venir et se mettre debout et foncer vers vous comme une horde de zombies. Et je sais pas comment est gérer le niveau de difficulté mais j'ai beau être dans le mode normal en quelques coups j'ai déjà plus de vie... Faut vraiment être un grand fan de l'univers pour finir ce jeu je pense. Car il n'est vraiment pas plaisant à jouer.
Age has not done this game any favours its just as bad as I remember. If your looking for a Alien related blast form the past I would recoment Aliens VS Predator 2010 over this it nails what this game fails to do.
I've got to say I enjoyed this game a lot, my friend recommended it to me when it was on discount. It's pretty fun when playing with friends, and I guess playing solo is also good. Overall just a solid game.
If your willing to get the Stasis Interrupted (Campaign Expansion) & Bug Hunt (Horde Mode) DLC's alongside the TemplarGFX Overhaul Mod, it turns ALIENS: CM into at best a 5/10 game into a solid 7/10. Wait for a sale, do this and you'll have a fun ALIENS experience. Highly recommend doing coop if possible.
I cant even play it bruh it keep kicking me out
Siempre he oído malas cosas de este juego pero la verdad es que es bastante entretenido
The game is fun especially in Co-Op. But the problem is this game is so unbelievably buggy that it's really not playable. Even with the overhaul mod that's supposed to fix things almost every level had some sort of game breaking bug that caused us to have to restart the checkpoint or even the entire game. We were on level 9 and beat the entire mission and while watching the cutscene it just randomly cut off and sent us back to the previous check point. Well we got the achievement for beating the level so we figured we could just go back to the lobby and start the next mission... Nope. Had to beat the mission all over again and we just did not have the willpower to do that so at that point we just decided to drop the game. This game really is fun for what it is just a cool little co-op alien shooter but the bugs really just make it way more of a hassle than it's worth which is a shame because I was really looking forward to beating this game.
No hay gente para jugar online, una lastima, lo mismo pasa con el aliens vs predator, el juego ademas de la historia, trae variedad de modos, por ejemplo versus, aguantando oleadas y demas. me pueden agregar para el MULTIPLAYER.
