Aliens: Fireteam Elite Reviews
Overall I found Aliens Fireteam Elite to be a pleasurable experience with only a few hiccups. The graphics are on point, the audio keeps very well planned to keep with the theme and feel over the series.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is probably what I deserve for getting my hopes up. But just like my plans for Summer of 2020, my hopes have been taken from me and ejected into the cold vacuum of space.
Mowing down the last Xenomorphs in a swarm using the Smartgun and barely making it out alive to the nearby extraction point.
Playing in a squad is the experience in terms of actual playability, and on that front it’s fun to be in the midst of a distinct 1986 cinematic Aliens vibe for a time. Sharing in the look and feel, pointing out the similarities, the inconsistencies, and questioning some of the questionable logic. In the end the impressive, but static, visuals and sound design do a lot to put you into the universe. But, at best Aliens: Fireteam Elite is what you play in the arcade before jumping into the cinema proper.
A multiplayer action fest that takes a vastly different approach than Alien: Isolation.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a hugely entertaining co-op shooter, only brought down by the formulaic structure of its missions and the odd rough edge. Developer Cold Iron Studios is promising more free content in the future, however, and has the chance to turn the game into something rather special. With more horde maps, marine classes and perhaps a mission tweak here and there, we could imagine returning to Aliens: Fireteam Elite time and time again, long into the future. Right now though, while some team-based third-person shooter fans will have plenty of fun with it, it’s only really a must for Alien fans.
If you're a fan of the Movies, especially the best one of all, Aliens, then this game is a triumph in letting you live out your jovial colonial marine fantasy and bug hunt with two pals. The game is genuinely engaging if too short for its own good, but then again perhaps you could say that it doesn't outstay its welcome in being a short and sweet romp through the 12 Xenomorph filled environments. It's an absolute blast!
Aliens: Fireteam Elite - Pathogen does make improvements upon previous levels and delivers a familiar yet enjoyable Aliens experience, albeit maybe a bit too familiar. Whilst not without untapped potential, this is certain to be a worthwhile investment if you found yourself wanting more from Aliens: Fireteam Elite.
Pathogen brings a brisk new quest among new species of intruders, but it's without any major surprises, just cosmetic additions. The campaign holds up, but it does not surpass the quality of the missions from the original game.

The game provides a great mix-up of Xenomorph and Working Joe types but leaves you feeling overwhelmed at times making strategy and setup crucial depending on the difficulty. I do wish there was more healing aside from holding 1 health pack since your team setup may not consist of any support class. It does seem like levels are stuffed with endless ammo but little to no recovery. Other than those few issues the game is a fantastic entry to the Alien Franchise and fans or coop shooters or Alien alone will love the game.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is the co-op game that every fan of the franchise will want to play. The setting and the confrontation against the Aliens make it a very enjoyable experience for fans of the work of Ridley Scott.

Very basic and formulaic co-op shooter which is too similar to what it tries to copy. Not the worst Aliens game, but not the best either.

Use your money to have a barbecue instead of buying this game and you will have made a more sensible decision.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite Shines when it comes to enjoyable gameplay. Gunplay is so enjoyable, upgrade system is advanced, different classes make high replay value and various enemy types make fighting away from being repetitive. If you want a good co-op game in the world of Aliens, Play Aliens: Fireteam Elite. You don't regret!

Aliens: Fireteam Elite does no favors to the franchise's reputation in video games. It's a mostly functional, but very repetitive and bland shooter that may only grab the interest of the most hardcore Xeno enthusiasts.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite manages to deliver good cooperative gameplay and it reasonably explores the immense Alien universe. Even so, it has technical problems, lack of immersion and, above all, repetition without much reward.

Adrenaline hunt with Giger's monsters and three players in cooperation offers cool experience in Alien universe.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite mostly delivers the goods with a super solid squad-based shooter set in the Aliens universe. There's plenty to enjoy here, lots of fun nods to the movies, tons of lore, impressive attention to environmental detail and slick Xeno-slaying action that's enhanced immensely by taking the fight to the alien hordes with a couple of friends. It may be a little repetitive, there aren't nearly enough surprises and the campaign fizzles out towards its end but, grab some buddies, get your headsets on and crank up the difficulty and there's hours of properly intense, team-based action to get stuck into with this one.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a good game, although you have to give it a chance to find out. It is also worth having a companion to play, although you can play alone. And although shooting is not very satisfying, and the sound design has problems, it can be a way to spend many pleasant hours.

liens: Fireteam has a lot to offer while also cutting a few corners. I think that the 40-dollar price tag will make people a little less hesitant to jump in and try the game. It may not be the most visually striking game but it in no way looks bad. Initially, it looked like the game was going to have a lot of the same environments and enemies and that opens up a decent amount after you get out of the first missions. The game world expands and starts to incorporate lore and enemies from all of the movies. There are even some new enemy variants that have not been seen before. Aliens: Fireteam Elite is being released at the right time.
