Wow...
Nobody saw this?! It's out and free!
It will be a fun 4-person coop blaster, I thought!
Look me up! "proxops-pete" ;)
May not get on every night but still... game server is bit tied up... free games do that to people and servers... LOL

HOLY CRAP THIS GAME IS AWESOME!
Played last night with Kama, pointless and Lost and Found.
Fun game. I can;t wait till more stuff is released for it.
Yep, game is a lot of fun! I took some screenshots last night but forgot to post them. :X
Played a little bit of SP yesterday just to get the controls and such down. Pretty fun; this seems like the game that the Alien Shooter series (and the other "Shooter" games by that same company) wishes it was.
Its fun. I can't believe its free.
Bit of a discussion going on in the steam sales thread.
Really cool they release the game for free though. I like it alright. The things that annoy me are the limited vision (maybe they should attach flashlights to all guns) and friendly fire is really hard to avoid since your playing with 3 other people in a small space. Will definitely be playing more though :)
Also there's an Alien Swarm hat in TF2 now =o
You get the hat for gaining the Hat Trick achievement. :DQuote:

That looks super fun. Thanks for the heads up guys!
Any word on how to access the game editor? I can't find it.
In Steam go to Library -> Tools and you'll find the SDK in there.Quote:

Awesomeness.
Tile generator for the game.
I am so going to recreate the first mission of Space Hulk...
Good stuff I'm checking it out now!
good game tonight people. Nice to see some new people introduced to the infectors. MUHAHAHAHHAHAHA
That electrical armor is a god send against those things
Taggart you got off the second I started playing it :( Played some offline just to get a feel I like it! Looking forward to some co-op!

It is the underscore that works. Steam sure is is strange with names sometimesQuote:

Play Alien Swarm in first person.
Also some potentially helpful console commands
