Yes, there is much criticism of the game. I also read the tests.
What is wrong, the video is no longer in the prior art. But the levels are Lovingly up in detail by built which brings a lot of atmosphere with it!
The aliens are not very intelligent indeed, but the game looks absolutely when one evening plays in the dark! Whoever takes in daylight on the game harms only himself.
The Syncro is really woody .... but that we are more than accustomed to in Germany. It's a pity, but it is not unusual.
As for the story: Yes, it is, in fact, so that was it constructed into something where there was no story gaps. However, somehow you have to bring into the world LV-426 the setting yes! For me, that's ok. It complains, no one on the "story" of Modern Warfare 1-3.
The game is for me personally a clear 75%! I like the Alien series, have all the movies on the shelves and already seen umpteen times! Even Prometheus (which is very criticized by fans!) I find it very good. In this respect I am therefore absolutely delighted with this setting. The implementation fits perfectly for me.
As far as the CE, the figure is great and now has a place of honor in my Nerd showcase! The Goodies and DLC going absolutely fine!
The best get an idea itself. The game is not become the hit that I had hoped for an alien fan. But as bad as it is assessed at the moment, it is not far!
