Overall I would highly recommend checking this game out it is after all, completely free. Other than the ability to heal, the medic has no real special abilities and is unable to wield the more powerful weapons. It feels as if the medic was forced into the game to provide a fourth class and healing for teammates. Needless to say I came back for more, however I still feel it could have been extended.īoring Medic Syndrome: The medic class is somewhat underwhelming. After completing the game through once I was less than halfay through unlocking the weapons. Shorter Than Portal: While the campaign was good, it was too short. Mini-guns, flame throwing sentry guns and tesla rifles are just a taste of what you can expect. Unlocks, Unlocks, Unlocks! The variety of unlocks in this game is spectacular considering the short length of the campaign.
This is a great finishing touch to make battles that little bit more personal. In the audio options menu, the player is able to choose what song is played from their own music files. For example, players have the ability to carry deployable sentry guns, so if there is a known ambush ahead up to four sentries could be deployed and players could then lure the swarm towards a kill zone.Ĭustom Battle Music: During intense battles, bullet-time is activated for a short period and intense music is played. Each class has its own unique weapons and skills, with a total of 40 weapons to unlock throughout the game.Ĭontrol of Mission: Although a linear game, a lot of freedom is given to the players on how you can progress through a level. Each player can choose from four different classes Special Weapons, Medic, Officer or Tech Support.
Set against the backdrop of a destroyed human colony, four marines must fight their way through waves of aliens to destroy alien bio-mass, swarm eggs and attempt to make contact with any survivors.
