Will be released on July 19

This is why Steam is a huge f'ing pillar in PC gaming. Fuck yeah, Valve

[mr. nails]

this game is so effin fun :D

yeah, it's pretty damn cool. i've only gotten to play it for 30 mins though. too much homework atm and i only played it OFFLINE. :'( ?

lol, i didn't even complete the damned mission. i ran out of ammo and when that happened it went downhill. also, apparently you're supposed to weld the doors shut behind you. lol, i just kept going. when i have time i'll get to the bottom of this swarm of aliens. the fuckers!

ps. i dig the slow motion they kinda snuck in there. lol, made me giggle. nice touch.

You almost always need a guy in your party carrying an ammo crate, probably why you ran outta ammo.

I love being tech because you get to do the hack 'puzzles'
my loadout is the default sentry, the prototype rifle with stun nades, and then either a welder or the tesla coil sentry. You don't really need to weld doors shut but if you're in a room and you have to hack something where the tech is completely exposed, it would definitely make things easier.

Indeed a really nice game and the last three stages are impossible even on normal if you don't find a good team to keep up with you. =/
Now, is it going to be free forever?

[extremepilot]

It definitely will be free forever. Cant imagine them making it free and charging people money later

Any one of you have tried the game in the FPS mode?
