Single player only?
Feel like this would've been a perfect fit for 4 player, possibly couch co-op

Yes. Multiplayer is a must

Yea, (local) co-op would've been great.

EDIT: ah, so not a twin-stick shooter

It's an RTS game.

Starship Troopers seems pretty cool. I played it and enjoyed it i was a beta tester. The really should make this co-op period. i mean why not have it where you can drop your team in. i have my squad and my team mate has there's and we work together to fight aliens. Seems straight to me. A lot of these games really are missing something. Like i noticed in Starship troopers your guys can level up. Cool but then thats it. Next game you have new people. That is a real let down. Why cant you keep your men. If you ever played panzer general. you can get ur men to 5 stars and up grade that unit to a stronger unit and makes them tougher. If you have men that survive all the time from almost being wiped out call them immortals give them a little higher armor buff. Something like that. it would really make you give a damn about the soldiers and not letting them die. I will probably get this because i tend to play single players games. But thats because most multiplayer games i do not want to play. But this seems like a game that would be a pretty awesome co-op game.........just saying

They did mention persistent campaign and character specialisations so I guess unit persistence is a thing. In general the game's description makes it sound a whole lot like XCOM which was *about* persistence so here's hoping.

I mean, didn't the last Aliens game have coop ? And it was actually pretty good coop ?

Isolation was SP and it came out great.

We don't know the gameplay entirety. It might be terrible for multiplayer, for all we know they tested it with it and it was abysmal and they dropped it.

The developers don't seem to have a forum presence though so I doubt we will ever know.

I'm glad it's single player only. I'm intrigued, actually, since we haven't had a game in this genre since Extinction. Would have preferred turn based, but I'll take what I can get.
2 player co-op at least

I'm not surprised given that their Aliens: Fireteam Elite game died pretty quickly due to lack of content
