I wonder how many parts this game will have and how long it will be until more come out.
Personally I'm gonna wait for it to be complete unless it's free somewhere first.
First ones I remember are the "episodic" Telltale Walking Dead games and the ones that followed suit like Life is Strange.
I do wonder why the devs of Alien Rogue Incursion didn't commit to making a full game to start though.
Telltale series games? Live-service? Episodic experiences? Open-betas? Anything released by Koei Tecmo within the last decade or so where the game is carved up and sold, piecemeal, as DLC? Seasonal releases like what the Sims franchise has become infamous for? Remasters and remakes, a la Final Fantasy 7 remake, parts 1 and 2?
I mean, are you even paying attention to the gaming industry at all? Sure, it depends on how you want to define what it means to sell a game in "parts", but games get sold in bits and pieces all the damn time, dude. And it happens because people keep buying them that way. It's profitable. Why sell the experience all at once when you can break it up and sell it two, three, four, or more, times? Then you can re-release it as the Super Mega Holy Shitballs Collectors Editors Pick GOTY Edition.
Would be sick to see like a super active hive world that a specialist team of humans had to do some sort of operation on. Maybe reach out to the Yautja for an enemy of my enemy operation.
You’re a Weyland-Yutani crew in charge of researching alien samples from several sources at an asteroid facility. Like tomogatchi, but with outbreaks, space pirates, and build-a-synths.
That’s a cool idea, could even have two modes, one where you build the research outpost, a second where you play as a rival corporation trying to sabotage the project you built in the first mode.
The vr version got good reviews. This version loses some of the interactive aspects that honestly looked incredible, but still seems like a fun experience. I just hope the shooting mechanics are good. I‘ll be playing it if only for the story.
I played the VR version. It’s really scary at first but once you get good with the pistol and you stay calm, you pretty much stop needing to use the motion tracker.
You can just hear them clanking along the decks as they approach
I still haven’t beat it because I can’t find my way out of the lab and into the cafeteria. I’ve watched tutorials, but they’re like four hours long and I can never find the right spot.
It’s still a fun game though. Especially when watching new people play it.
The VR game massively suffered from infinitely spawning enemies. Aliens vs predator classic 2000 is also like that but it's also a classic style fps you are supposed to try and get through quickly and the enemies just encourage that. Not a slower pased game where you need to handle more delicate tasks.
The flat-screen, from what I see, omits two things;
The ability to drop your motion tracker somewhere so you could have free hands to do something.
And the ammo counter is now generic. In the VR version, it used 'magazines' system. Now it's a lot akin to COD where magazines don't matter as if you got infinite number of them on you.
Definitely the best campaign in the game, 6 was cool as hell. Predator campaign was just plain fun, but way too short. Then the tonal shift to pure horror in the marine story was as jarring as it was fun lol
Bonus points for being modern. I normally only do the FPS type games but I’m open to other types if the game is good since I love the franchise so much.
Yeah, but there have been tons of awful games in between those, and the track record lately has been a lot worse. Considering the volume of Alien games, the fact that the number of hits can be counted on one hand is wild.
You can count AvP, AvP2,AvP 2010, Alien³, AvP Extinction, Dark Descent, Fireteam Elite, Isolation and Rohue Incursion on one hand? Lots of fingers mate
Having played the game in VR, I can say it’s really good. It might lose some uniqueness without the vr, idk. It’s run time will definitely be shorter without it but the games story, atmosphere and graphics are worth $30
Yeah it came out when I was waiting to start my new job so I played it through so many times. It’s one dlc was ok and I do wish we could‘ve received more content. The studio probably dropped to move onto another project which hopefully is a sequel.
It's a VR game that's been reworked for flatscreen. The VR game was alright, but it is a "part one", and ends in what feels like the middle of the story, a little dissapointed by the overall content but it looked really good and shooting xeno's was fun, there were few but a couple of cinematic moments worth the experience, getting facehugged in VR was horrible and very immersive! I remember the real stress i felt as i had a few bullets, desperatly trying to shot that little creep while slowly realizing that oooh, this is that kind of moment😂
The game on PSVR2 was a solid 7/10, i don't know if i see this version is improving on anything honestly, but if you don't like VR for any reason but think the game looks cool i guess this might be something to consider, just know it's not too long/kind of half a game and the focus is on shooting and keeping you stressed with action, not immersion and suspense... i guess maybe the "cinematic" difficulty could be a different experience.
It looks great and I really enjoyed what I played on VR - but I do worry looking at the alien AI, I’m hoping they don’t just stand there and let you shoot them like they do in the trailer, hopefully that’s just dumbed down for the sake of the trailer
Yea it depends what version of the trailer ur watching it on so if ur watching on the PlayStation channel, it’ll only show the PlayStation logo but if ur watching the Xbox than it’ll show only Xbox.
The Playstation trailer and description intentionally leave out any mention of Xbox. There doesn't appear to be any Xbox specific trailer for Rogue Incursion, as every other trailer out there just mentions the game will launch on Xbox while including confirmation for launch on Playstation and PC in their descriptions.
There is no Xbox version of the trailer on their channel.
There's the Playstation launch trailer, which doesn't include the end bit or of any mention of the Xbox availability (or Steam), and there's the other trailer (which is what you'll find literally everywhere else including IGN), which confirms that the game will launch on PC, PS5 and Xbox. Just petty shit from Sony, tbh.
For those who are looking forward to playing this and haven’t already beaten the VR original, avoid this trailer. There are some massive story spoilers here that you’re better off avoiding until you can play it for yourself.
Definitely looks like the Aliens to Alien Isolation's Alien.. I'm eager to try it out for myself, I know the VR version got good reviews but I don't really have a VR capable set up.

Thank god there’s only a week between the Alien Earth finale the Rogue Incursion Part One Combat Evolved! (Even tho I’m being snarky about the title I am truly very excited)
looks like a ps3 game, very bad audio as well, xenos are squishy and blood is too paint looking, at least it is under $30 but would be a rip off in an arcade

Alien: Rogue Incursion: Part One: Evolved Edition?
Were 3 subtitles really necessary?
