Starship Troopers review by PeaceKeeper [Posted on 2004-05-14] This is the best squad-based game EVER!!!!!!! It is in your face, bug-killing FUN!! Use tactical manuvers to carry out missions. But always, ALWAYS be cautious because you never know when an acid-spitter (Tanker Bug) might find you! From shooting bugs to nuking bugholes this game will keep you on the the edge of your seat wanting MORE!!!!! What do you do when you see bugs? Here's an idea, KILL THEM!!! KILL THEM ALL!!!!
Ohh Yeah AWESOME [Posted on 2004-05-20] This is ine heck of an awesome game. Do your self a favor, BUY IT!!!!!!!
Locked UP! [Posted on 2008-01-07] I've owned this game since 2001. But with my latest computer, I can't get it to load and play. No support. No information sites available. There is a line in the start up that you must delete to get it to play. Unfotunately, I forgot what, so now I can't get it to run on my current comp. If anyone out there knows, I'd appreciate the help. The game is good, but no deviation. But as I get better, I run the ops with fewer men and make it harder.
BEST STARSHIP TROOPERS GAME EVA!!! [Posted on 2008-07-07] I first played this game when i was 9 or 10 and I LOVED IT!!!!
If you are Smart and like the StarShip Troopers Movies Buy BOTH the First Person Shooter and Real Time Stratigy Games
It Rocks I DONT CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS
Highly recommanded to Fans of Starship Troopers Series [Posted on 2008-09-20] From "X-Com, Enemies Unknown" to "Starship Troopers", I'm keeping an eye on Microprose's games.
Excellence of this game:
All 3D models and landscapes;
Extended human armoury & tech-edge, e.g. hi-tech reinforced armour suits, plasma weapons;
Extended Arachnids species (compare to the first movie);
360-degree-rotating camera;
Various battlefield positions across galaxy;
etc...and I'm impressed the game can be performed on Win XP properly, for its aged release date(A.D. 2000).
Drawback:
Poorly detailed 3D model;
No in-action-safe;
No detailed in-action-reminder for primary objective and optional objective;
No database of all elements present in game(weapons, starships, planets, bases & outposts, history & events, enemies);
You have vehicle-escort mission, but no vehicles(especially tanks or choppers)for your squad, so your men go anywhere on feet(except they have jump-jet-pack mounted armour suits), which prolong missions badly;
No real-action movies or CG films throughout the entire gameplay(except a short and single opening), even no ending movie when finished the game;
Soldiers cannot exchange armaments & equipments with each other during actions, so you unable to optimize the force when resource is limited;
Some elements in the game are generally excrescent, e.g. those psycho-specialists;
etc...
Conclusion:
If you're addicted to Starship Troopers Series, I strongly recommand it to you, purchase(or acquire this game via other methods)immediately! If you're NOT familiar to the series, go to the novels, movies & animations first, then get the game!
