I've seen mentions of this on the subreddit, didn't see specifics regarding platform though.Anyone having issues getting into a game at all, since this morning it just says Error game full?
Okay thanks for the response.I've seen mentions of this on the subreddit, didn't see specifics regarding platform though.
Second campaign is what I was looking forward to the most and after finishing the first mission of that it's been great so far. Love what they've done with the planetside environments. Also the soundtrack is simply fantastic!
I was thinking the default difficulty would be a breeze but even that is providing to be a bit of a challenge every now and then. Don't even want to know what the game will be like on Nightmare with team damage enabled. Oof.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite not only has the authentic visual and sound effects from the series, but it also comes loaded with some great Aliens easter eggs to find. There are even cool little nods to other films and even games from the Alien universe, too. Here's what we found!
Spoilers below!
From the famous Aliens power loader to David's flute in Prometheus and a ship from Alien: Covenant, Aliens: Fireteam Elite comes with tons of easter eggs and references to the Aliens series. There are even some brilliant emotes like Bishop's knife trick and references to some of Corporal Hicks' famous quotes.
I think their servers have been slammed. The devs are looking into it thoughGame isn't that bad, although I can't get into a game. I Don't hate going solo.
Have the same exact issue. Could only play offline with bots.Anyone having issues getting into a game at all, since this morning it just says Error game full?
Try changing the difficulty mode. I've managed to get in on a couple of games this way.Anyone having issues getting into a game at all, since this morning it just says Error game full?

Yeah, the matchmaking has been clogged. The devs were looking into it. Explains why some pools may be more accessible than others.Try changing the difficulty mode. I've managed to get in on a couple of games this way.
I hate these type of games and I’m more into Alien than Aliens but it looks like the devs love the franchise and I like that aspect of it. To buy or not to buy?
If you're not into these type of games I wouldn't buy it anytime soon. Especially if you know these type of games aren't for you. Unless you have money burning a hole in your pocket and you wanna support the devs, haha.I hate these type of games and I’m more into Alien than Aliens but it looks like the devs love the franchise and I like that aspect of it.

It's a shame they couldn't incorporate a director-like AI to mix it up every time. I mean, it's understandable why they couldn't cause development cost and budget and all. It would've been great to see though!I'm actually enjoying this game more than I thought I would. You definitely need to use your abilities and work as a team to get through some sections and the game is fairly difficult from the get go.
I was on 3 teams that got wiped out at the end of Chapter 1 mission 3. I finally got on a team that worked together to take down the drones that wiped out the previous groups and was finally able to get out. I think the mission structure is kinda weird in this section though since the escape route is behind you and you can easily not notice the objective change in the middle of fending off the crazy xeno horde.
I will say that I'm already kinda noticing the replayability will suffer since there is only one way each mission plays out. Each section spawns the same number of Xenos from the same spawn points. (Although I think difficulty changes the number of xenos spawning.)
I think I will wait for a decent sale and will buy it then. The Alien fan in me wants to check it out.If you're not into these type of games I wouldn't buy it anytime soon.

This game needs a FREE mode like ZombiU... where there's a 3 coop controlling the marines... and the 4th player controls where the Aliens spawn.
I wish there was a campaign versus mode like L4D 1/2.This game needs a FREE mode like ZombiU... where there's a 3 coop controlling the marines... and the 4th player controls where the Aliens spawn.
You could place Alien spawn points for the smaller ones and take direct control of the strongers.There is one issue with it. How to make gameplay enjoyable for the player who has a control over Aliens spawns in arcadey shooter.

Mmm hmm. I'm happy for it all around. The overall reception has been pretty positive and that's great! Especially for a first project, let alone a AA budget one. Not sure how they got so lucky with such a big IP on their first go, but hey, happy for them nonetheless. Well, and the IP, haha.game is currently at 84% positive reviews on steam. People seems to like it.
Aliens fan so the game is scratching that itch!
James Horner Classic Score is the only way to play with it as the bgm!
Covenant was just a terrible, terrible movie. Ridley Scott needs to never make another aliens movie. I don't think I've ever been as disappointed in a movie as I was coventant. Prometheus had it's problems, but the story it was telling was amazing. Covenant just shat all over it and turned it into even more dumb people doing dumb things + hastily throwing away all the good from prometheus + focusing on the single worst character the franchise has ever had.Still bitter after Covenant. They need to finish strong on the 3rd prequel, if it ever gets made. Like all the nods in this game.

Pretty sure the sequel to Covenant got shelved along with the franchise because of how bad it was.
Yeah I’m not sure if Ridley and his son thought they would have 3-4 more movies to make in this series, but the writing was just shite. Prometheus was probably overwritten, so it’s just a bummer that Covenant was such a weak response. Prometheus is a fine sci-fi film and put some nice conceptual and original meat in the franchise (that was needed I think), but then pissed most of it away.Covenant was just a terrible, terrible movie.

Your enthusiasm for this game, mixed with my nostalgia for the franchise, convinced me to give it a go. I got it cheap from Gamersgate, and since I'm locked down, I thought it would be fun.Mmm hmm.

Played another 2 missions today and yeh I'm loving it. There has never been a better representation of a marines vs aliens showdown in games than this. The sounds and visuals are just phenomenal. Sucks that matchmaking is broken because it's quite hard with just AI.
