comment |
Starship Troopers is a 2005 video game based on Paul Verhoeven's (not-so) adaptation of Robert A. Heinlein's novel.Five years after the movie, the Arachnids have taken over the planet of Hesperus, and it's up to the player, Marauder 06, to help the Mobile Infantry retake the planet. Along the way players will fight against many castes of Arachnids, from both the movie and the TV series.Like Deus Ex: Invisible War, this is one of those games that gets picky about its hardware; it is designed to run on Windows XP and Windows XP only, though this can be solved using compatiblity mode. And then there's the video card compatibility issue. With some tweaks, this can be solved too, though this results with very, very severe Special Effect Failure in-game.Not to be confused with Starship Troopers Terran Ascendancy. Or with Starship Troopers Extermination, a 2023 First-Person Shooter which is highly evocative of this 2005 game, albeit with more of a large-scale multiplayer focus. |

comment |
Anyone Can Die: Like in the movie and the marines from the AvP games, expect your fellow MI troops to die very quickly. This however, is subverted in a few levels; a few troopers actually survive, but still, they don't help a lot. |

| | Starship Troopers (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae |
comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The railgun, the missile launcher, and the nuke launcher can kill most Arachnids in one shot, but their rate of fire is slow, and ammo for them is quiet rare. Also, the Morita carbine's secondary fire mode is useful at wiping out groups of Arachnids, and can even bring down a Royal with several shots, but eat up lots and lots of ammo, which is shared with other Morita variants. |

Boring, but Practical: Aiming down the Morita sniper's sights decreases its rate of fire, but makes it more powerful. It can bring down a baby plasma/tanker bug with 25-30 shots. |

And the Adventure Continues: The game ends in typical Starship Troopers fashion; a Fednet propaganda reminding the player that the war is far from over. Like the rest of the game's FMVs, it consists of Stock Footage and is pretty much a redub of the first film's ending. |

Nuke 'em/One-Hit Kill: The nuke launcher from the movie made an appearance, but rare ammo and ever bigger and harder battles meant it was often Too Awesome to Use. In Bait, the player is ordered to fire a non-portable version to wipe out a plasma battery. Its EMP blast ends up shutting down the base. |

Short-Range Shotgun |
| | Starship Troopers (Video Game) / int_bcf69f60 |
comment |
Short-Range Shotgun: Painfully played straight. Both the Morita's underslung shotgun and the heavy shotgun has piss-poor accuracy. The heavy shotgun's secondary fire mode is even less accurate, but can kill a Warrior or a Tiger in one shot. |

The Engineer: The Mech-Troopers. Each mission has at least one of them. In some of their appearances you have to protect them. The game's coop mode involves the players protecting him while recovering parts needed to repair the evac dropship. |
