Starship Troopers known for its 1997 American Science Fiction Action Film is finally here with its new fletched video game!
So, what is Starship Troopers: Extermination about? The game begins with an introductory tutorial about base building. At first, seeing the base building and creating walls seemed like just another base-building game. However, jumping into multiplayer action blew me away! The player will join an online match with up to 16 people divided into 4 squads to face a horde of Bugs. Dozens, and I mean Dozens of Bugs will come at you tearing your team and base apart. It gets hectic when multiple bugs appear. Even killing the bugs can be a problem with their bodies creating walls to block you. The bugs can even use their dead companions to climb! However, seeing your team blast and eradicate the bugs just gives you a rush to keep going and succeed! This is a shooter you and some friends can find fun.
Let’s take a look at what else Starship Troopers: Extermination has to offer.
Pros:
- Choose your play-style
- Select a squad that fits your play style (Burn, Snipe, Explode, Destroy them all)
- Decide what equipment and abilities you want to bring to the battle

Cons:
- Performance
- Times where the game has Lag (Makes sense due to numerous bugs)
- Connectivity Issues (Matches crashed and have to search for another Match)
- Can be a bit Buggy
- Shooting Experience
- ADS Firing has some odd recoil. Players can adjust but it feels Odd.
