Starship Troopers Extermination Review Cons:

• Any lag makes it really hard to play.
• The tutorial is just about basic controls and mechanics and doesn’t prepare you for the gameplay.
• Early gunplay is not great and feels loose.
• Had several crashes when changing graphic settings.
• The first few games are just pure chaos in a confusing way with little help or guidance offered.
• A lot of the time it feels like you are just following people.
• The menus are not great or responsive at the moment.
• You don’t get menu feedback like notifications of new u locks in Loadout slots.
• The a big learning curve for everything.
• No matter what I do, the game never runs well at all, no benchmark test doesn’t help.
• Has a lot more issues when playing with Steam big picture mode.
• Doesn’t feature any characters from the film in any capacity.
• You don’t have any customisation options just the Loadout.
• The building has a slight learning curve.
• Daunting menus and it’s not clear where to go or what to do, the modes could do with a description or even a text pop-up.
• Aiming down sights on many guns is not great as they take up way too much screen real estate.
