Bug-hunts and xenocide Anonymous 02/28/18 (Wed) 10:03:56 ec5c98 No.14407663

Watching Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars at the moment, and it's inspired me to go on a bug hunt and kill xenos.

What are good games that let me hunt bugs? Except for Bug Hunt on the Atari XE, that was a classic and I already played it to death back in the day.

I assume you know about Earth Defense Force?

Rimworld has bugs in the base game that spawn in caves which can get out of control if left alone.

There are also various mods that add bugs and even has a Starship Troopers mod. Pics related.

Earth Defense Force, of course.

Factorio has a ton of bugs just waiting to be nuked.

There's a Starship Troopers video game, and it's pretty OK

It certainly nailed that bug-feel.

Looks alright. Not sure I can convince my friends to play that with me though. Is it good solo?

>>14407669

I knew about it but forgot it was released on PC a while back. How's the multiplayer on PC?

>>14407683

Rimworld looks good, but I'm wary as fuck of early access shit. Is there enough there, and is it stable enough, to justify a purchase?

>>14407704

Played it back in the day, I'm looking for more modern stuff.. There was an N64 game, like Turok, that was pretty much Starship Troopers. That was good fun. Can't remember the name of it though.

Works fine if you can find players. But the single player is just as fun.

Thanks anon. Next time it's on sale I'll go on a gifting spree and see if I can put together a ragtag team of shanty singing saviours.

Rimworld is releasing into 1.0 soon and is supposedly "base feature complete" according to ludeon at that point, it has some flaws but if you are afraid of EA you shouldn't be waiting more than three months for a full release.

its great for just wasting an entire week away when you have nothing better to do.

Deep Rock Galactic

But early access.

Helldivers can't really be played solo and if you don't have friends to play with then you will need to play with random people which really sucks due to how much co-operation the game requires.

Earth Defence Force can be played solo, but it is a lot better when played in online multiplayer. Earth Defence Force is still fun to play with random people though, which is a huge plus side if you don't have friends to play with.

Alien Swarm is pretty cool and free

Thanks anon. I'll probably skip Helldivers then, and try and get some friends in to EDF.

>>14407901

Played that a bit, never really clicked with me though. Not sure why.

Infested Planet scratches that itch.

Though it really is mostly a glorified flash game.

Hooktube embed. Click on thumbnail to play.

The point of Factorio is basically purging the xenos.

Armorines! That was the name of the game I was thinking of. I went and looked at some footage and jesus, it's not a all how I remembered it.

>>14407749

I really like the look of that. But yeah, Early Access. Ugh. Still, the low-poly aesthetic, the fully destructible environments, the different co-op abilities, it all looks pretty good. Hopefully it turns out to be as good as it looks.

Not really. The game got some goodwill over the dev bandwagoning GG and later latching on Dwarf Fortress memes but in the end it's really shit without mods. And still nothing special with them.
