Has anyone checked Starship Troopers: Terran Command out?   If so, what are your thoughts?  I've wanted a game like this ever since all the StarCraft mods / levels were created. I even created a couple at one point.

It looks interesting. I'm thinking about picking it up.  It also does not have Steam Deck support at this time.

Thoughts? Comments?  Post it up!

Never heard of this game before. I'm not really an RTS type of player but this looks intriguing. I have placed it on my wishlist and when it goes down in price I might pick it up. Starship Troopers is one of my favorite movies.

@CreepinDeth yeah... it looks very interesting.  I wish it had support for Steam Deck.  However,  I'm not sure how they would work out all the buttons.   I'm waiting on the price as well... but I might be tempted to pick up at the current price.

@Grindspine you should check this out.

@BLUEVOODU  - I present to you ProtonDB! This game is rated as Platinum so should run nicely on the deck (with the exception of some cutscenes.) You might have to edit some things as well to get it to run at first.

Starship Troopers: Terran Command ProtonDB Rating

As for controls, you'll definitely be using the trackpads and triggers for mouse inputs but since it's Steam, you can always alter it to your preference.

In regards to the cutscenes, looks like if you install Proton-GE then you should have everything working. I've never installed it myself but a lot of people have. It sucks that Valve can't ship their SteamOS with proprietary codecs for a lot of these videos but I get it. They're abiding by the GNU licenses.

@CreepinDeth  Thank you for the ProtonDB link.  Checking it out.    There were reports at later levels with breaking bugs... but updates appeared to fix it.

I will definitely check this out.  I want to play this game lol... especially on the Steam Deck!  ;D
