Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! News

The Federation is Deploying a Bug-Blasting Patch for Our Demo

[h3]We’ll keep fighting, and we’ll win! [/h3][p][/p][p]Today FedDev is releasing a patch to cover some of the issues you’ve been facing on the front lines of Zegema Beach. We’re proud to have seen so many of you deploying in our immersive training simulation, with the Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! Demo available NOW on Steam.[/p][p][/p][p]But no battle plan survives first contact with the Arachnid enemy! Our teams have been doing their part to make these bugs a thing of the past. We have some fixes deploying to Zegema Beach right now, including:[/p]

[p]AI Troopers will make more effort to stand behind you, reducing (but not eliminating) the risk of friendly fire[/p]
[p]AI Troopers will now focus their fire (where possible) on any enemy which you are fighting at or taunting[/p]
[p]AI Troopers included in your squad will also follow you more closely (while in follow mode), meaning they are better able to provide support[/p]
[p]The Q key can now be rebound in settings and is not hard locked to Weapon Swap[/p]
[p]AZERTY keyboard layouts are now working as intended (Troopers who previously launched with AZERTY will need to delete the config folder*)[/p]
[p]Loading screen text now reads correctly when loading shaders (players previously thought it may have crashed)[/p]
[p]The software will now open in Full Screen - Windowed as standard (reducing resolution issues for new Troopers)[/p]

[p][/p][p]The Federation thanks every Trooper for doing your part in our immersive training simulation. If you’re thinking of starting on the path to Citizenship there’s no time to lose - sign up now with the mighty Mobile Infantry in Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War![/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Would you like to know more?[/h2][p][/p][h3]Wishlist and Play the Demo NOW on Steam[dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/h3][p]And don’t forget to follow official platforms, including our Federal developers, Auroch Digital and Dotemu. They’re doing their part. Are you? [/p]

I played the new demo for the upcoming Starship Troopers boomer shooter and accidentally wiped out 6 of my own guys when I bounced a grenade off someone's head

I sometimes have trouble keeping track of all the different Starship Troopers games out there, but the upcoming Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War stands out for a couple reasons. One, it's being made by Auroch Digital, developer of the very excellent Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, and two, there's now a demo on Steam so you can get into the bug hunt action (and take your first step toward citizenship) for free, right now...

New Starship Troopers FPS transforms Helldivers 2 into a '90s boomer shooter, and you can play a demo right now

Helldivers 2 was a fantastic surprise that elevated the bug-blasting genre to new heights. I loved Arrowhead's top-down original, but its escalation into a full-scale 3D shooter absolutely blew me away, keeping everything that made the first special. With that said, what I've seen of Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War makes a similarly strong first impression. Its more stylized, retro boomer-shooter aesthetics feel like I've been teleported to a world where Helldivers 2 came out in the late '90s, but at a level of scale and spectacle that would have been impossible at the time.
