****Official Aliens vs Predator Thread****

Isn't Jamesdavid3 the guy who was going mental at console players recently, as we dared to have his precious AvP? I would take his comments with a pinch of salt to be honest!

I played the demo (PS3) earlier and wasn’t impressed – granted it decided to put me and a mate on a 1v1 and both were aliens, so it was a bit ****e, it’s quite a rubbish demo to try boosting sales imo too.

I think I’ll hold off from getting this at launch, if I can (:D), and wait for player reviews.
 
Played this tonight i thought it was pretty dire to begin with then me and my mate were the only 2 humans against 2 preds and 4 aliens. Stuck together in party chat and the aliens/predator one liners kept rolling as things tried to kill us.

I dare say single player will be the best part of this. Does anyone know if predaliens are gona be playable in multiplayer in the final release?
 
played the demo and i can't say I like it much the maps are textured very well the Brightness was maximum but was way to dark just like AVP2 film
As a marine i still get that same edge as I did when I played Alien Trilogy (PS1) and AVP on the PC

Alien I found hard to control and a struggle to kill predators

But as i love the films i shall get it for single player its probably just me but maybe one of those bad games of 2010 line up
 
Anyone know if you can play co op with multiple players? Like just you and your friends being marines?

Not so sure about the actual campaign but there is a multiplayer mode called survivor which is similar to survivor mode on LFD and horde mode on GOW. Bascially wave after wave of aliens untill the team are dead :P. Not sure if this mode can be played as 4 predators which would kick some a**.

I dare say single player will be the best part of this. Does anyone know if predaliens are gona be playable in multiplayer in the final release?

I was shocked to not see this skin on the line up in the demo tbh. Can only think that this is due to possible expansion in the future or DLC skin pack ?

Anything to back that up?

Its on the rebellion website explicitly saying its the same demo from E3. Im shocked though as you would think that releasing a demo which is so old would do anything but bolster sales, in fact quite the opposite. Its been a bad move by the developers but I do think the actuall full game will be a lot better. :)

I guess we'll just have to wait until it's released. If this is old code, which is how it appears then it could be a good game. The matchmaking has been terrible for me and others who play on the PSN but the game has been solid in my opinion. I'm still not sure on the quicktime event killing though.
 
Oh dear, there is a Gamer Informer review floating around in the form of a 'scan' on-line...

5.6/10 :(

I always was more a fan of AVP2 (Monolith Productions), looks like Rebellion couldn't make the mark on this one.

Oh, is that the GI review that didn't review the final game? :rolleyes:

IF you actually read the review, you'll see it's just a sad **** that gave the game all of 5 mins, moaning about stuff that actually doesn't matter.

I.e. He gets Motion Sickness using he Alien. HAHAHA! Loser!

Cant ****** wait!
haven't managed to connect to any games on the demo as yet for some reason:mad:
but hoping it will throw up similar moments as avp on the atari jaguar when i **** my pants as marines, fell backwards off my chair and lauched the controller up in the air!

my mates fell about laughing :D

on PS3 btw, will maybe try 360 and see if if i get any joy :confused:
 
Just had an excellent game as a marine and won the round. Got 25 kills and an amazing 8 kill streak, not bad for a marine! It's certainly possible to win with all races, I'm poo as the alien. Is there any way to lift someone up from the ceiling? Never managed to do it if you can.

OK Relax fella, it's only game review, I'll try it when it comes out but either way 5.3 is not good from GI, let's wait and see how the rest of the reviews pan out.

Its only a review but the entire review is just shocking! A lot of the negative aspects that he/she brought up are what fans of the series love. Such as the motion tracker. From what ive seen id give it an 8/10 nothing new on the franchise but its got a lot of cool ideas.
 
Tried to play yesterday and it just sat for AGES looking for other players. It eventually found 1 but I never got to actually play the game, great demo!
 
Im still frustrated with this. I so badly want to play the demo and give it a try before i purchase it but ive not been able to connect once yet not alone play the different races.
 
Have had a few more games now (on 360 usually 5-10 mins to get a game) and learned the controls and can say I will be buying it on day one.

This must be a very hard game for them to demo due to the nature of 3 control systems but once you've taken your time getting the 'perfect' kill is very rewarding. Plus im also optimistic as this is the E3 build that the full game will play and look better.

I think it was confirmed earlier in this thread it is E3 release. I just wish i could try it. Will try again tonight. :(
 
liking this the more i play and get used to the controls

me and a mate went on as a xbox live party, we went marines and there was two other marines in the game, we all had a unspoken understanding of marines stick together!
We stayed as a team and it was a GREAT game, gave me a taster of survivor mode and the other game types and i have to say, it was really really good!! Very excited for this now
 
Guys I'm new to my ps3 and playing online

I've just got the avp demo but when I try quick game I wait like 10 mins and Ive never got into a game. Is this normal?
