This game was challenging. I ended up re-selling it because I couldn’t progress through a particular level on normal. I don’t game like addicts do, but I know how to work a controller. Be prepared to be frustrated.
The story is sparse. It’s not an RPG. But it is a cool tactical unit battle game. You give instructions to your crew and do a lot of setting up turrets and traps for anticipated horde invasions. There are a few jump moments. I didn’t see much on cutscenes. Weapons are upgradable.
All in all a decent game for Aliens fans. There isn’t another shooter out there’s in this franchise on a modern console IIRC. You have Descent which is like XCOM, and Isolation which is a game of dread , survival, and hiding. So this game is fun if you want to shoot up Aliens and it does that pretty well.
The monsters you face aren’t repetitive and they aren’t all the same either. You face harder challenges as you go along.
I would play this knowing that I’m going to have to go to YouTube for some tips, so as not to quit out of frustration. I couldn’t believe normal mode was so hard.

This game is intense! It really gets the blood pumping during the hold-out scenarios. Aliens: Fireteam Elite is basically an Aliens-branded version of Outriders. There doesn't seem to be much involving the RPG aspect, which is a good thing, so the players can just focus on the action without having to worry too much about weapon upgrades and such.
Playing solo, I had a tough time because the xenomorphs move really fast. It takes a while to get used to quick aiming and landing your shots. Sometimes it does feel like the game throws way too many xenos at you (especially on hold-out scenarios) and some of the bigger xeno types are very hard to put down. But the more you play, especially with friends, the better your choices and tactics become, and you learn what works and what doesn't.
There's enough to keep you busy for now, but the developer has promised more DLC to come. Hopefully that means more levels and campaigns to play through. Also, the AI director seems to change up the playthroughs each time by changing certain paths you take and putting different xenos in different areas. That keeps things fresh and makes you stay on your toes while adding to the replay factor.
For the price, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is worth it. There's always people who won't like it, and that's fine, but it's wrong to trash it and ruin the experience for others.

This game is awesome and reminds you of the 2nd movie Aliens with lots of action and survival, the game takes place 23yrs after Alien 3 but before Alien Resurrection. Your part of a 3 man colonial marine team (you create your playable character to your liking) You can play with 2 cpu synthetic robot characters or 2 online players for the missions. The gameplay experience is much more immersive when playing with online players, there’s more than 10+ types of Aliens you’ll encounter (spitter, drones, soldiers etc..). There’s 4 campaigns with 4 missions per campaign, once you first beat the game the harder levels will unlock which if you play it’s recommended you play them with online players instead of the synthetic robot characters. The action is non-stop because there’ll be Aliens coming out of the wood works from everywhere on every mission, your constantly on your guard and you have to watch your health meter like a hawk or it’s game over especially on higher difficulty levels. There’s five classes you can play as (demolisher, gunner, recon, doc and technician), find the one that fits your play style best. Communication is KEY to survive when playing with online players…………And yes, the Alien Queen is in the game. If your a fan of the Alien movies you won’t be disappointed with this game, also all future DLC will be free if not mistaken.

I really like Aliens, so much that I would give it 5 stars. There are a few reasons why I am not giving it 5 stars.
First, the campaign is mad short, each campaign has only 3 sections each. You blow by it pretty fast, and post content is trying to beat it on harder difficulty plus horde mode.
Second, they're customizable weapons but it is not deep enough to really get into it. The same said for the class too, it is just not deep enough to care. Just beat the chapters and gain extra abilities.
Overall the story is solid to enjoy, even more so if you're a fan. The lore and trying to collect the index info can be fun, killing Xenomorphs are a ton of fun but it can eventually wear thin after awhile.

I had a ball with this game. I didn't find it tedious at all and the options were a big reason. It's a keeper as I know I will want to play through it again, using different the many options available. It's not perfect at all with little things like characters that you talk to that don't move their lips. After getting use to it, it didn't bother me much. Good game for the price.

Do you like the Aliens franchise? Do you like fun? Then you’ll more than likely love this game. Aliens games have always been hit or miss with me, but this was definitely one of the good ones. Recommended.

Deal of the day purchase for me. Graphics are good, but there is not a lot of instruction for game play, you have to figure out a lot of it on your own or with outside source help. Missions can take 30 minutes or more, and there is no saving inside a mission, you either win or fail and have to repeat.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
