To say that Aliens: Colonial Marines soured the industry's perspective of the Alien franchise is an understatement. Alien: Isolation helped redeem this to some degree, but when a co-op shooter based on Alien was announced, the general consensus online was that it would be a disappointment. Even friends who saw me playing Aliens: Fireteam Elite through Steam messaged me under the assumption that the game was bad.
Fireteam is able to sit comfortably amidst its sibling titles by managing to still carve its own path in the story. It doesn’t tell the tale of an all-out war with the Xenomorphs, nor does it tell a story of a single isolated incident against an indomitable foe. In Aliens: Fireteam Elite, the Xenomorphs already won. The Colonial Marines are now on damage control, trying to reach out to ravaged settlements in the hope of extracting just one survivor. And that's where you come in.
