    Altough it's an Alpha I have to say this game is terrible. Very repetitive, dead maps with nothing happening and running around chasing blue footprints for 3 minutes, attack monster he runs and rinse and repeat.

    Concept was a great idea but in practice it's terrible.

    Thought it was great

    Couldn't catch him no matter how hard we tried, eventually he tried to ambush us in a large building, essentially trapping himself, turned into a 10 minute battle

    Looking forward to playing some more

    Just out of interest, are you able to play with friends in the alpha, or are you stuck with randomers?

    2 games so far.


    God damn it takes forever to launch a game. So many menus and loading/waiting periods til you are dropped into the game.


    once inside confusing as hell, but a lot of fun. I sucked as the monster but did pretty good as the assault. It really needs the ability to look over the characters and set up preset perks/loadouts cause thats what eats up a lot of the menu/loading malarky leading into each match.

    might be easier in a party?

    Not great is it? Feels like a really expensive game of hide and seek. You spend the vast majority of the game just running around the jungle chasing someone and then they hide for long enough that they can finally come out and destroy you. Certainly nowhere near the level of Left for Dead on first impressions.

    I've been watching some streams of it this evening, it looks ok, but that's about as much as I can give it. Maybe it plays a lot better than it looks.

    Seems like there are a lot of delays for people trying to get into games too, doesn't bode well for it's ability to support its playerbase at launch.

    So you can't actually play this game with a party of 5. The monster has to be a random from a random queue. That's the end of this before it even starts.

    How and in what world is that ever a smart game decision. The hype for this game between myself and my friends was that we can play between ourselves as 5 taking turns as the monster but they won't let you.

    I am honestly lost for words at how utterly stupid a design decision this is.

    Jesus.. a surprising amount of hate for the game.

    I'm going to wait till I play it before saying much but I'm still looking forward to the game.

    I don't for a second believe this will be the way it works in the final version.

    It surely can't its such a weird decision. I know there's levels and XP in the game and they are probably worried about "boosting" but they would be alienating a very large portion of their potential playerbase by keeping it this way.

    Fair play for sharing the codes folks, I'm tempted...

    I suppose I could understand the "boosting" concerns but at the expense of playing with friends? Not the decision I'd have made and not one that's going to be easy to sell to people.

    for anyone who has x-com enemy unknown on steam, you get access to the alpha, no key required, the game should show up under your library on steam.

    really enjoying this game
    have to say, thought the idea at first was stupid,
    but its quite well balanced, if the monster player knows what hes doing

    I can understand some people saying you can kill the monster within the first 3 minutes, it happened to me a few times, but to be fair, its going to take abit longer then 1-2 days for everyone to have a shot at been it and knowing how the game works.

    First game I went into I was the monster. I died in 6 minutes, because I didnt have a clue what I was doing :L, next game I went into I was medic, we lost because I didnt know what I was doing.

    Now I know what I'm doing, and the past few games other people have as well, so its lasting longer and finding it more fun :D day one for me so far :)

    I got a couple of quick games in, did well with the assault class, didn't do so well with a Support.
