If you dont like it dont buy it.
If they don't want us to air our opinions then they should stop advertising to us. They've been talking about appealing to the die-hards since the game was announced. Well, the die-hards are responding. Why try to appeal to such a group if you're not expecting only the harshest of criticism?

QuoteGame developers put themselves and their art out to the public after investing countles hours to create something tangable
They're not starving artists. They're making a product, any game developer who gets into the business to get away from business is going to crash.

Quoteunlike most of the computer chair critics on this forum that sound like sniveling little brats who feel their opinions are some kind of a contribution to their pathetic little lives. Really you should ask yourselves have you ever done much more than eat twinkies and watch porn?
Quote- Be Nice & Respecful. Be nice to other members. While a forum is for debating issues, just plain insulting people will not be tolerated.

If the opinions of others inflames you so much, then you should refrain from joining the discussion.

Naturally, we'll have disagreements about the game just like we did with AVP 2010. People will like it and people wont. Try to be civil with your debates here, guys.

Did I ever say they were starving artists? And no your opinions dont inflame me at all, Im just telling you that in my opinion they make this community sound silly, petty and kind of nerdy especially since the game is not even out yet. 8)

Your comments seem to infer that without our approval Gearbox will reap nothing in return for their graft.

Then please refrain from calling the lives of other members "pathetic". And yup, we're nerdy - it's a science-fiction fan site.

Welcome to the internet.

I'm all for voicing one's opinion and such but there are far more constructive ways to go about it than coming across as condescending and bitter because some people are pretty vocal about how this game has come along development wise.

Nerdy? Heh what did you expect from a Sci-Fi fan site?

I mean twinkies and porn? Did you really just join up to try and annoy people?

No, but you never know. People have called their kids worse and more obvious things  :P

Hey,

Quoteunlike most of the computer chair critics on this forum that sound like sniveling little brats who feel their opinions are some kind of a contribution to their pathetic little lives. Really you should ask yourselves have you ever done much more than eat twinkies and watch porn?

Actually I used to be a mapper on Lithtech & UDK and I can certify that Gearbox probably looks nice on the paper with their environment but their MP maps so far are just some random FPS map inspired by Aliens. Nothing quite exceptionnal but I admit that it makes me proud now of knowing that I can do better than they do yeah. You'll also learn that a lot of members in this community are doing something else than eating twinkies (though, I'm not sure that we all stopped porn  :P)

Don't be mad because I already think that this game is halfway from a disaster (still better than an almost full disaster SEGA sold us with AVP2010).

Keep also in mind that Gearbox strategy to sell the game as an authentic Aliens experience is probably and even likely to be a direct order from FOX/SEGA. They have a product to sell you.

Also I'm quite disappointed as it has been pointed out that the game is on LV-426.
Earlier screenshort and artwork implied some outter colonies on an asteroid. Would have been quite kickass to have a variety of place instead of sticking with three main locations as the Sulaco, Hadley's Hope & the Derelict. Though nothing is quite sure and there's still possibly some unannounced location, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Question about Team DM - I thought I heard the guy say that one round you play as Marine then you play as Alien. Is there no way to stay as Marine or Alien the entire time or do they make you switch sides between rounds? I'm really only interested in playing as marine so that would suck.

Le Celticant

Ya know, games are more and more stupid.
There used to be a time, not so long ago, when you could change class/species inside the game.
Funnily, it disappeared somwhere recently like it's a feature too hard to implant.

You referring to the old Jace Hall footage right? Things change all the time when it comes to game development as I'm sure you are well aware, plus wasn't the old 2008 stuff scrapped and the game we have now only began serious development in late 2010/early 2011?

Not making excuses for Gearbox, I'm sure they had their reasons but yeah I do agree with you, would have been great to visit other locations other than LV-426. But I'll reserve judgement until next week.

There was concept art of cities and stuff that looked great, and looked like it could really expand on the series. Likely we won't see any of it. The game's much more straightforward - an open world game with colonies and such would have been great.

The alien animation doesnt look very good.

Neither do the marines faces as well.  :P

When the ship crash landed into the hangar?

That looked terrible :/ ...jeesus.

Old saying. "Those that can't do crticize."  ::)
