The whole game has very 90's old school gameplay vibe to it the way the AI reacts.
Well, the movie was made in the mid-late 80's, so I guess they were going for authenticity.

Man, the Gearbox forums are a mess. If anyone even mentions that they like the game in any way they are assaulted by a barrage of trolls and flamers and called out as being a shill or a retard.
Some quality users they've got over there...
I think in this case, the users ardently defending the game would be the trolls, since the game appears to be fairly indefensible. The bulk of users trusted Gearbox to make a good game and they didn't get it, and so they are angry. You could argue that they are taking their lost $60-$100 (depending on region) too seriously, but not that they are trolls.
But if you have played the game, and liked the game, who cares? Claiming people are wrong because they have a personal opinion that they like the game is trolling man, no question.
The fact of the matter is, no matter how bad a game is there will be some people who like it. And that's fine...calling them out as being stupid for liking it is idiotic, that's my only point.
Give it some more time and you'll start seeing an equally-vicious attack from those who like the game, who will label everyone else as a shit troll and post "haters gonna hate" everywhere. When DmC came out, there was a huge backlash against the older fans as some kind of response to the criticism directed at the new game's direction (and not just over Dante's hair).

LOL, now people around the place are claiming it's not Gearbox who developed this, but it was outsourced.
Sega says otherwise: Gearbox is the developer.
Aliens: Colonial Marines...this generations Daikatana
I wonder what type of legal actions can be taken in this regard? I think people that purchased A:CM were entitled to the truth before buying it. Not that Gearbox has a stellar reputation, but look at Timegate's resume...ughhhhh

hopefully this massive fail will not mean the end of games set in the Aliens universe...that would be sad news and will cement Gearbox's name in the history books for all the wrong reasons...hopefully a developer with love of the source material and appreciation for the mythology can make a real Aliens game (Rocksteady anyone?)
Elements of games are outsourced all the time, happens with pretty much every big game.
None. There was no false advertising, no broken promises or anything like that. Simply saying that someone produced a game and it turns out that parts were done by someone else means nothing. Because they contracted out for that work means they were still in charge of it and responsible for it. THus, legally, they still produced it.
Poor quality products != lawsuit fodder.
I say get the old Vigil games guys now at Crytek on it.

so, basically the opposite of EA forums, where any criticism is assualted by a barrage of white knights and moderators with itchy trigger fingers, and called out as being a troll or flamer. not sure which is worse...

if the multiplayer is alright then i'm sold. I spent a good chunk of time on AvP even though critics and fans slammed it. It was just mindless fun. Looks like they're slamming this game too but whatever, the internet is full of haters these days and alot of noise usually from keyboard commando kids with nothing better to do than sit at home and complain.
Most gamers who follow the ins and outs of the gaming news and PR should know that Pitchford is arguably the most full-of-shit developer in the industry. You cannot take one word he says to be true.

Aaaaaaand it starts...
That is harsh.This game has been murdered on "Steam Community Hub" all day. There's a riot of people asking for refunds.
"Maybe Aliens: Colonial Marines would have been better as a musical?"

Also, this could be total BS, but would make sense if true:

That definitely sounds legit to me. All in all, it's still Gearbox's fuckup, period. I just hope the Aliens franchise isn't killed off for good on PC.
the AvP game from 2010 was pretty good and highly underrated...I just recently played it for the first time and was surprised...most importantly it got the atmosphere right...nailed the Alien and Predator movements...graphics were stunning in DX11...gameplay was average at best but the game nailed the feeling of playing as a Marine, Alien and Predator...I'm going to replay that game for my Alien fix and everyone else even remotely interested in Colonial Marines should do the same
I'd like to know how many people have played the later Brothers in Arms games for PC. The more I play of A:CM the more it shows that the technology and practices are stuck in the era of BIA.
