As far as getting random players to join your own game, who knows? I’ve played a few dozen solo games to gather research samples for upgrades and I have never had a random player drop into my game. Once you’re with a team the game rolls right along. Finding a group can be a challenging, since most games on display are already full. There isn’t an in-game invite system, which is a little irritating, seeing as how there are SOS beacons which can give your game priority in the public lobby. If you see a buddy in a game you can simply choose your loadout, drop in, and blaze away. There are two lobbies available from your ship’s bridge, one for random games and one for friends. Players can drop into games at will, so long as there’s an open slot. Figure out who’s hosting then everyone can either meet up on board the ship or on the planet’s surface. Games are easily joined, but you have to join individually, so you’d best make sure everyone you’re playing with is already on each other’s friends list. I’ve experienced a few minor annoyances with the co-op system, but nothing rage-inducing (so long as the servers are cooperating). It really kills the flow of what should be a pick-up-and-play game. The end mission recap screen is painfully slow, displaying each player’s stats, rewards, and promotions individually. Kills don’t matter, which is nice because it keeps players focused on the mission instead of trying to go lone wolf on heavy targets. It’s pretty dope.Īt the end of the mission players will all earn equal rewards no matter how they performed, as scoring is based off of survival and completing objectives. Just replace bugs with cyborgs or psionic energy creatures two thirds of the time.
