thoughts?

Well this was a very old build and only TWO playable multilplayer levels, I didn't get the chance to play as the Alien either. However it felt very stiff, It was very much developed with consoles in mind and the PC as an after thought. FOV was very bad with most of the screen taken up by the gun, mouse movement also felt slow.

You could increase the mouse sensitivity but it still didn't feel right, Just ended up getting frustrated with it. Graphics wise, not bad actually certainly better than the previous Alien game we played. As for the level we played, too tight and closed in, most likely to keep players attacking/dieing because it was a gaming event but it was way too one sided.

I feel when the game is out a lot of people Just like when Farcry 3 came out will complain, especially as it's more developed towards console gamers. Could be wrong! It also depends how they work on the game after release, for some Farcry 3 is a good game at least now it is

It certainly wasn't a BAD looking game

p.s No they didn't know what controls did just as what happened with Farcry 3 at the event, first thing you saw when you sat down was an Xbox 360 controller and the mouse to one side

Mentioned about this at the Rezzed event some time ago!

Expect patches and more patches

I don't know, a lot of people said the same about Far Cry 3 when it was first released. Being shoddy, most of these feelings changed down the line

Apparently people are already playing the full game and its crap.

To be expected though, it's an Alien franchise game.

It was very much console in mind with a lack of after thought

I spoke to some of the guys at Rezzed - tight fov, bad mouse movements, poor textures and they didn't even know what keys were mapped to what options.

:mad:

So much potential ruined, you would think they would listen to the players before the game released!

To those that pre-ordered should've listened to me from the rezzed event

The devs didn't give a **** then!

Of cause it is

Neil79 · 13 Feb 2013 at 02:03

Enjoying it so far, although it can be annoying how the game scripts the aliens to attack me right next to another marine
