The idea is to let you participate in chaotic, fast-paced skirmishes against an overwhelming number of enemies, all with a distinct cinematic flavour. The movie's memorable Whiskey Outpost siege is one scene that has certainly inspired a mission in the upcoming game: this has you defending the walls first from waves of smaller bugs and later from huge, flame-spitting behemoths.
With variety being the spice of life, the developers are also working on a number of solo infiltration-style missions with a stealthier feel. You'll have to contend with around 20 varieties ofbug throughout the game, ranging from the basic Warrior infantry to Blaster Bugs and the hulking, beetle-esque Tankers.
Each species will sport its own Al and behaviour: some will rely on sheer weight of numbers to get the job done others will take to the skies a small number will be able to unleash sniper style attacks and heavy artillery. Luckily you'll have access to a seriously deadly arsenal. Details on the available hardware are still somewhat sketchy, although you can expect several variants of the Morita assault rifle, a shotgun and praise be!
Dropships are on hand to ferry you and the other troopers around, but with Strangelite concentrating on perfecting the ground-based action, you won't get the chance to jump behind the controls. Your Al comrades cannot be controlled, acting instead in much the same way as the friendly units from Call Of Duty.
As a member of the elite, it will fall to you to handle the most powerful, advanced weaponry and undertake the bulk of the nasty jobs. A cooperative multiplayer mode is also planned, allowing you to enlist a few mates before embarking on a post-pub bug hunt. Visually, Starship Troopers is shaping up nicely. Seeing plus spiky arachnids swarming towards you is impressive in itself, but the engine will also incorporate ragdoll physics and normal mapping to give everything a polished sheen.
If work progresses on schedule, the game should make its way into the shops some time in the autumn. In the meantime, watch this space for more info, and never trust Psi-Ops!
Creepy Crawlies - we've all had our troubles with them in the past. Whether it's a family picnic spoiled by a wasp sting to Uncle Andy's nether regions, ants invading the fridge or the sheer panic that results from hearing the whine of a mosquito hovering past your ear, bugs have a habit of making life a tad inconvenient.

FzN -1 point. I had no real issue with main game but thought id update with the patches. Unfortunately they do not do anything. They extract to temp folder, then delete themselves. Not sure if this is because i didnt install the game to default directory? They seem to be in some sort of bespoke archive file, where the new assets would be extracted to the right folder.
