“[h1] This game, honestly? it's dead in the water. which is a huge shame cos i just want to 'do my part'[/h1] The handful of times i've had a full, competent team on ARC have been the absolute best of what this game has…”
“Variety of classes and tactics with building mechanics. One person can do many things to bring victory for the team. I like the game, could maybe use bit more content.”
“Did you ever want to be a soldier in Starship Troopers fighting against Bugs? 'Cuz that's what the game is. And it does it very well.”

“very basic game but that's all you need great with friends can have a lot of stupid fun with I would say 100% worth the money”
“Really good team based horde shooter hampered by a few borderline problems. Get on sale and have a good time. Objectives are entirely team-driven (16 players), making for a unique experience in the modern gaming…”

“I've really enjoyed this game so far. It runs decently on my pc and I haven't experienced lag to the extent people are talking about, just some jitter here and there, nowhere near constant and not much of an issue. The…”

“This game is a blast despite being a grind. You jump into a match and 40 minutes are gone just like that! Its a great game to take your mind of the world and just kill bugs. You see the iconic armory from the movies,…”

“It's just a buggy mess, low fps, rubber band issues, extreme lag. Plus it is mostly dead now, if you're lucky you might get a match but be prepared to wait 10+mins for a 15mins match to be booted back to main menu when…”
“Tough sell... I like the movie a lot, and this looked interesting. But in reality, this game feels like an early-access game. It's simply unpolished and has bugs (No pun intended) -The single player mode, albeit…”

“Bought it after release. It's been through some rough patches but it's getting better and better. I think the dev team is quite small and it takes time for them to "smash the bugs" and improve the game. It's a fun game. There are several gamemodes, although I think the most…”
— a player, Steam review · 767 hrs played“True to the movie, fun classes, maps and missions. The sheer magnitude of bugs is an experience in itself. My favorite part is building a smart base and watching how my teammates utilize it, or watching how it holds up after a massive breach. Highly recommend for Starship…”
— a player, Steam review · 219 hrs played“This game is beyond buggy and unintuitive. There is no point in teamplay, XP is based off of kills and almost nothing else. Medic/Engineer get practically 0 XP compared to every other class. The grenade launcher is the best weapon in this game. Completely outclasses the rest of…”
