    Game does too much hand-holding and there's almost no base-building involved. The game walks you through everything so building structures is almost never up to you. I was expecting something like Starcraft with base building and tactical decision making, but so much of the game just tells you to go from point a to point b and your army design and structure placement, etc. is barely up toGame does too much hand-holding and there's almost no base-building involved. The game walks you through everything so building structures is almost never up to you. I was expecting something like Starcraft with base building and tactical decision making, but so much of the game just tells you to go from point a to point b and your army design and structure placement, etc. is barely up to you at all. Graphics are good, but that's about the only pro of the game. I was pretty disappointed with the game overall.

    Spoke with game devs on one of the messageboards to make sure Epic online services was not included in the game and while they said presently it's not, they wouldn't rule out the possibility that it could eventually make it into the game, so this was a pretty big con for me. Ultimately I borrowed a friend's copy of the game to check it out as I would not recommend ever buying a game where the developers won't confirm / promise EOS (Epic Online Services) will stay out of the game permanently as some developers recently have been adding EOS into games retroactively, causing problems for owners of the game.

    Overall game rating: 4/10 - not recommended.    … Expand

    The quality of fan service is simply breathtaking, so it’s a must for any fan of the cult classic movie. Still, as a game, Terran Command offers nothing new. Even less, in fact: there’s no multiplayer, map editor or even a skirmish mode, so once you’re done – you’re done. [Issue#260, p.54]

    A strategy equivalent of a summer blockbuster, wiped from your memory as soon as the credits start rolling. It’s not as intense as Verhoeven’s movie, not as varied or expensive as other games in this genre, a simplified Company of Heroes, if you will.

    Starship Troopers - Terran Command Terran Command is impressively faithful to its classic '90s sci-fi source material and a solid space adventure in its own right.
