Alien Swarm thread.
>What is it?
A free top-down 8-player squad shooter with 4 classes. The original game by Valve was a flavor of the month 7 years ago, but a new version came out that finally added fucking mod workshop support.

The only thing I remember about this game is that it goes slow-mo at the climax of the level and it lets you plug in your own songs. Had lots of fun with boss levels while Unchained Melody was blaring on the background.
Bumpan 2 shill this Steam distributed freeware game.
bump haha.
Fucking love this game
Downloading now
Bump
Didn't know it was free. Definitely gonna check it.
Still does the music thing. You can upload it from the main menu without any file editing.
>When you get to the elevator and Collapsing kicks in
Its a pretty great evolution from the old version, i hope it stays alive for longer.

>Shilling
>Free game
Also I like both games. And one is free. Fite me.
it's a new game though and it came out two days ago, also it's FREE, supports workshop and has a bunch of new campaigns
Its free. Nobody has anything to gain by shilling it. Except for the community, which could probably use new map makers and just more players in general.
Helldivers isn't free and looks like a children's coloring book. Can I have one alien game that isn't full of faggoty colored lighting like it's marketed towards 5 year olds?
Helldivers isn't free and I got tired of it after a bit and refunded it.
Helldivers has
>more enemy variety
>better graphics
>more weapon and equipment variety
>vehicles
>better mechanics
>actual bossfights
Alien Swarm doesn't have shit over Helldivers.
Fuck off shill.
>Shilling for Helldivers
Lol
it's free retard and helldivers isn't
>shilling a free game
Do you have brain damage?
Played it with Sup Forums some a couple days ago right after release. Was fun. We should do it again some time.
>this game is better because it's FREE!!
Literally kill yourself you mongoloid shill.
>The original game by Valve was a flavor of the month 7 years ago
you dumb nigger. the original game was a UT2k3 MOD. GTFO Sup Forums you underaged faggot
Why are you so mad, is Helldivers' online dying? Acting like a retard isn't going to make anyone buy the game. Unless you're just shitposting, in which case you got some (you)s.
Jesus fucking Christ, the autism. I'll never fucking touch Helldivers now.
Yeah but no one plays that anymore, so who cares.
I'm not mad. Helldivers has a stable player base. Alien swarm's player base will decline to zero in about a month after people realize how shit it is.
and the ut2k4 version was way better than the steam version, it had 8 players and was way harder and more interesting
Yeah but why are you shitting up threads not related to Helldivers?
This one has 8 players.
Aren't you just shilling Helldivers though?
>hey kids stop breathing that stinking FREE air buy this oxygen tank it's WAY BETTER!
Kys helldivers shill.
The City 17 map is okay. Someone said there's an antlion guard, but I don't remember one. You so fight the Queen though so you need the autocannon.
is there actually a reason to play this or is it still the same shit 7 years ago
Helldivers is ok for 10 hours, probably less. It's way too repetitive, and gameplay is honestly pretty unsatisfying.
Same shit with like two new reskinned guns and a shitty ported enemy from half-life.
Helldivers has a shitty fucking patrol system that makes it super easy because you will never fight any actual enemies in objective mode.
from review
+new maps and modes. (and enemies)
+extra 4 player (8 player total, not for hardcore/onslaught)
+"not too noticeable" graphic improvement and optimization
+steam community workshop contents
+AI bot to help ya out
+rankings and challenges
has several new weapons, with more coming in the future
team deathmatch
achievements
more campaigns
Workshop support is going to be the important thing. There was a decent modding community for tho old version but for some reason valve made zero effort to allow modders to make use of the integrated modding features of steam. There were some pretty good custom campaigns out there.
Played it with some friends a few hours ago, was pretty good. Still feels mostly the same as the original, just tweaked and with some additions. Workshop support is a big deal though.
I was looking at some other games similar to this. Has anyone tried Red Solstice?
Its as fun as I remember, but the entire existance of the revamp is hinging on content creators noticing and caring enough to shit out tons of mission campaigns and the like.
Honestly no idea what they have planned for future content
Post your go to song for custom music
