Are the servers fixed yet?
I just hope you guys didn't cheer along in that scene...
>liberalism
Fascism is more like an ant colony.
Where's the sus?
Nvm, I found it. It is on the left of the puke puddle.
To the left of the cum pile at the bottom left panel.
common stonetoss miss
rare stonetoss hit
SUSSY!!!!!
is the joke that liberals are gross bug people i dont get it
>It's a "psykers can barely do anything" setting
Boring
*psychics
Psyker is more Sci fi.
Remember when it was a part of Sci fi that humans would develop psychic abilities in the future?
I think the last thing to do that was Looper, and it was kind of weird there
>movie about American forever war militarism
Uh it’s actually about fascism and since we’re not doing a fascism we can feel like we heeded the lessons of history.
True but Rome had its own forever wars against the Gauls in the time of the empire
frick Cinemaphile
forced online-only live service with battlepass progression. Sony is their publisher and they cant even afford servers
the shooting is fine but have no idea why its being shilled
It's a double edged sword. On one side the movie is seeing more threads and being talked about. On the other side, the conversations are 90% political crap with "media illiteracy" being the hot new buzzword, so the actual movie itself doesn't get talked about.
I just want a ST thread that talks about the good shit and anons posting quotes or webms of action and the shower scene.
>zoomers on twitter find out starship troopers is a satire of nazi's/facists/imperialism
makes me feel old, think i watched rob ager's video about this 10 years ago.
I figured it out from watching the movie 25 years ago in middle school because it's fricking obvious.
Haven't played the game, how it relates to ST?
just has a similar "war propaganda" vibe, mostly. also space marines fighting giant bugs.
for some reason it brought all the "ACKSHYUALLY STARSHIP TROOPERS IS SUPPOSED TO BE SATIRE AND YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO ENJOY IT FOR ANY OTHER REASON" midwits out of the woodwork.
Astroturfed socmed horseshit. Frick off, shill.
Black person cope
I played the first one and this looks nothing like it.
Frick off, that was me by spamming the “pol/tards don’t understand satire” threads
>Reignites Starship Troopers discourse
>Just two vocal minorities screaming at each other that if you don't like the movie the way their respective bug hives dictate them to you are either a nazi or a bug
>Both too unintelligent to see irony of that
All Starship Troopers discussion has degraded to worse than when libtards themselves took the movie at face value in the 90s. Understanding what Verhoeven was doing with it somehow made them only worse.
This mf too dumb to figure out Benis Aries was a false flag
That’s just a fan theory born out of the modern lefts need to overanalyze and fit into boxes all the media they consooome. It could be a false flag but it isn’t a certainty in the film.
This, it's really annoying that people take their assumptions and try to hold them over other people as absolute truths. It's a fun thing to speculate about absolutely, but within the movie, how Klendatu are presented, and not from viewpoint of gay guy from How I Met Your Mother (who can tap into their minds and quite possibly control and not disclose communication with bugs), but from viewpoint of Rico, their only form of communication with people throughout the movie was this. I wouldn't fricking blame anyone watching Starship Troopers for the hell of stomping the bugs.
>/pol/cels need direct exposition to understand very basic and obvious plot points
Checks out
bullshit
you didn't know about that theory until you saw some guy talk about it on a youtube video essay and you know it
Bet you think leatherface didn’t kill anybody because you don’t directly see it huh? Cope more chud, intergalactic bug launched smart guided rocks are the only “theory” here
I didn’t say anything about /misc/. I don’t think there should be direct exposition about what’s going on because it would take away from the surreal feeling the movie has. You’re the ones trying to say what it is and isn’t.
this
Imagine falling for propaganda from a film that’s deliberately and overtly showing you how ridiculous that propaganda and the people pedalling it are
did you even watch the movie? you should, it's a good one
Poltard cope lmao
>All Starship Troopers discussion has degraded to worse than when libtards themselves took the movie at face value in the 90s
based rememberer of things. i too recall all the newspaper reviews not realizing that the movie was satirical and saying it was pro-fascism.
qrd on this? I dont have twitter
game comes out that has a similar vibe and aesthetic to the Starship Troopers movie that Paul Verhoeven made back in the 90s, people like the game, a bunch of them go "oh hey, it puts me in mind of Starship Troopers!", the usual idiots come out of the woodworking seething over people liking Starship Troopers because they think they're part of a secret club and are the only people who recognize what the movie was going for.
it's a third person shooter where you land on planets a shoot the shit out of bugs in the name of democracy and freedom
The latest fad being shilled across social media and fomo'ing the frick out of the usual npcs.
i think however unlike palworld, helldivers 2 is actually good
>a $40 game with premium battlepass and timed microtransactions that installs rootkit anticheat
>good
The aesthetics are nice but it has some of the worst things you could attach to your game.
ill take 40$ with cosmetic microtransactions over 70$ that isnt even fun, also rootkits are necessary part of the chinese indian world we live in. stupid to fret about that, if the company were using their rootkit to watch you jerk off it would be a fricking incident and everyone would know within a day
what's the need for anti cheat on a coop? I just wanna shoot bugs with my friends, I don't care what other players are doing
It’s called a debate not a discourse
is this why we're getting spammed with starship-trooper/misc/ threads.
>my headcanon is right!
>no my headcanon is right!
Real nice ~~*discourse*~~ you have here
PC bros ... meanwhile PS5 players have zero problems with logins.
lel @ pc gamers so desperate for good games
does ps5 have like 2 exclusive and one of them is a remake of a ps3 game
It has seven and is the only current console that has games that can't be played on PC.
name 8
lolno, tons of Switch games are exclusive. It is just funny that you buy a $2k PC and cant play 'good' games, meanwhile a $500 PS5 owners have no problem enjoying Helldivers 2
PC Master Race
>tfw eurotard
haven't experienced a single queue
The first game was insanely underrated, does everything have to be a fps or sandbox to get attention?
no, not thank you
Starship Troopers re-entering the public consciousness is always a groaner because I can't stand the overly vocal midwits who can only look at the movie from one strict angle.
Why are there so many starship troopers threads
a popular game came out that borrows from it aesthetically and any time that movie has historically entered the public consciousness, a bunch of people start arguing over whether or not it's okay to enjoy the movie or things inspired by it.
It's even weirder than that. It's more like whether it's okay to enjoy the movie or things inspired by it certain way that is different from one recently popular way that gained prominence in the internet and any other way is invalid.
it'd be like if suddenly a bunch of people on the internet started saying you can like Robocop but you can't enjoy the parts like where he shoots people.
Who is saying you can't enjoy it? Seems like people are more upset that it can be interpreted as anti-fascist
alternatively, it's like those libtards on twitter who say that kids who ask for stormtrooper toys for christmas are future fascists who should be put on a watchlist
like homie, cool things are cool, get over it.
Kek
No one is upset that it could be interpreted as anti-fascist, in fact, everyone knows that it was in fact Verhoeven's very intention. No one denies him literally spelling it out. However, he still painted picture of a functioning society, society that needs war to function and society that is good only for stomping bugs, of course, but still a functioning society. And claiming that propaganda is obvious is useless, because propaganda is only ever effective when it stands to offer something people can buy into, which is why Paul Verhoeven HAD to paint a picture of a functioning society that people can live in, even if it goes directly against his worldview. If he hadn't built a belivable propaganda that people could buy into then he would've failed at making the fricking movie.
And screeching everytime BUENOS AIRES WAS AN INSIDE JOB is pointless, it could be, the movie smartly very intentionally makes that clear. For example, why could it have been only an inside job? Why can't it be neither, why United Citizen Federation couldn't have mistaken (both maliciously and genuinely) an actual random meteor as an attack to use to it as an excuse to further propel their society? These different ideas and discussions about movie are never made and never furthered from infancy because right now bunch of people are just yelling at any other people for not beliving that Buenos Aires was an inside job, new points about the movie aren't being made, it's just people telling other people are wrong for liking things differently without discussing the movie.
Why are you seething so hard?
I am literally agreeing with you that movie is anti-fascist.
>It's more like whether it's okay to enjoy the movie or things inspired by it certain way that is different from one recently popular way that gained prominence in the internet and any other way is invalid.
Overcharged internet autism and politics brainrot are the problems. I don't see how I can't simultaneously enjoy killing bugs, think there's a good argument for the asteroid being a false flag, and say that Veerhoven could have done a better job at blending how great he made the Federation look against his criticism of it (which was his main intention of course)
unironically a good game
I know it was a satire but it really made facism look cool.
what a fresh and hot take we haven't seen here before
Warhammer 40k is the superior fashism satire.
It’s just a shitty ripoff of nemesis the warlock designed to sell toys. Starship troopers takes everything ridiculous about modern day politics and transports it into space
how is it fascist?
Leftards be like
>What if sucked a bunch of wieners to make fun of homos. Can you imagine how funny that would be? homosexuals get owned
A dutch coomer making half the internet lose their shit in autistic rage because of his little space bug movie will never not be hilarious
>At this weekend’s ComiCon in Toronto, Casper Van Dien and Dina Meyer (aka Rico and Dizzy) confirmed the long-standing legend that the cast refused to strip down unless their director did the same (albeit Verhoeven got to stay behind the camera while his clothes were off). A lot of people would prefer to face an entire hive of Arachnids before baring all on the big screen but, as the 20-year anniversary of the film approaches, Meyer and Van Dien remain unfazed by the experience of being nude among their co-stars. Seeing their director naked is another story.
> “It was probably about 100 people in the room,” recalled Meyer, “and Paul’s like ‘Before we start shooting we want you guys to get comfortable with the nudity.’ So he basically had us do a bit of a fashion show without the fashion. We were a little reluctant to disrobe, and Paul was like, ‘I don’t understand you Americans! What’s the big deal? Just do it, it’s fine, no problem!’”
>“And Dina,” interjected Van Dien, “says ‘Paul, if it’s no big deal why don’t you do it?’ And so he dropped his drawers and all of us were like ‘Augh, god! Dina! Why!?’ So thanks to Dina, we’ve all seen Paul Verhoeven’s… Verhoeven.”
Based
it's pozzed garbage with the bald sheboon greeter in your ship that you can't replace
frick you Cinemaphile
>movie about goverment using people as cannon fodder on some piece of shit planet a morbillion lightyears away where they get brutally torn apart by giant piece of shit bugs
>"yuo see... this is not satire about war because I like the costumes and I am gay for the actors...also i drew spacemarine as epic chad and got 500 likes on twitter for it... SJWS OWNED"
It's funny how the Swedish devs had to ham it up even more than the movie because of how most people found the government in Starship Troopers unironically a great idea.
And even in their overtly hammed up satire people are still finding it a good idea and unironically supporting it.
Leftists just can't help but BTFO themselves.
