ALIENS: DARK DESCENT Full Gameplay Walkthrough / No Commentary 【FULL GAME】4K 60FPS Ultra HD

Also when he opened the gate to enter the reactor, he transitioned to his marines picking up 4 sentry guns that were sitting there and then just running in, because he must have seen how it goes when you stay back. That's what I'm here for. To see whether opening this gate makes you walk in and close the door behind you and lock your sentry guns outside. :/

[@digiornopizza1918]

One of the features I’d like to see better is the aliens. What made them terrifying wasn’t simply their speed and power but, how they could come from anywhere. It doesn’t seem as difficult when they rush straight from a corridor and down a hall. I don’t think it needs to happen all the time but, some of the aliens would pop out and capture civilians but, during the gameplay they would walk around like normal characters. Even activating the doors and walking through them. It’s a small detail but, it’s something that bothered me with the enemies. Maybe on harder difficulty I’d see it more or it would be more difficult with bigger hordes of enemies.

[@MUSIC3787]

[@brandonpoole1670]

Such a cool game. Yeah, it’s a little rough around the edges but solid at its core. Stays tense about 90% of the time. Just completed a run on Nightmare after finishing on Medium. Once you learn the mechanics, it’s not so hard. I was still learning stuff all the way up to the end of my 2nd run. Mainly, becoming efficient at utilizing the sniper. Another thing that dawned on me was how to make the infrared goggles work in your favor. On that mission when the power goes out and your motion-trackers don’t work, keep the flashlight on and just walk around. Much, much easier to detect and avoid confrontations. Even works behind closed doors/walls.

No way I could last hours listening to that. Other than that, I found the graphic design very interesting going from the isometric to full third-person for some instances and then back to the isometric for movement and such.
