I am a hardcore Alien fan. This should be absolutely amazing if done right, and I do have my hopes up.

looks awesome, also hope they do it right....

The latest AvP was a let down, if they can get this right it would be awesome.

I agree, last one was a let down. This does look very promising tho

It does look very promising so far. I am very impressed. For instance, look at how perfectly they captured the alien. Looks like a proper alien, something I personally don't feel that I've really seen in the games so far.

Time to necro my own thread, because a new trailer has been released with 11min of gameplay. Looks fucking awesome imo

I watched the new 11 min gameplay footage... Amazing! Gonna watch Aliens again just before playing this

 

[Maplassie]

Well it is being developed by Gearbox, so it will be a good game

Down in front!

Looks freakin awesome! Hope it makes up for AvP.

LOoKs quite cool, hope its better then the previous game.

Time to necro my own thread (again).

New Singleplayer and Multiplayer trailers/vids:

SP:

 

[Gimaru]

MP:

My opinions about it: SP one looks good, but multiplayer can do with some work. Firstly, the aliens in MP are invulnerable when doing a death blow for some reason, and I know people have been complaining about that in AvP (2010). Secondly, the Pulse Rifle sound is very annoying (starts high pitched about every time you start firing) and if that's going to be in release I really hope the game is going to be moddable. Then, the Smartgun muzzle flash looks like it's been done in MS Paint.

New (well, semi) trailer for the multiplayer mode called Escape.

 

[Graal]

I just hope the xenos control well. They sucked in AvP 2010.

I'm more worried at the moment about whether this mode is going to be available with bot xenos, instead of players. Would be f'ing awesome to play this in a L4D mode.

 

[Graal]

Yeah, that's a concern I haven't really thought about but that's pretty big. It's often easier to get 4 players together for a game than getting 8 players together, and worse, having nobody drop out before the game is over.

I think this will make or break multiplayer for me tbh, I'm very picky with mp modes. But other than that, the game looks to be awesome.

However, I do absolutely hate the running animation for the aliens. Galloping/hopping, wtf? Really not authentic. Can be seen in the vid below:
