This game is amazing! For a start the game is free, you can download it on steam and play it, and see for yourself what the game is like, very easily. Do not miss out - give it a go, you will not regret it! It is coop tactical squad shooter type of game. It is a modification of the original alien swarm that was released on steam in 2010. Reactive Drop has added support for 8 players, with is tons of fun, they have also added a bunch of new difficulty modes and challenge settings, and a host of new maps / campaigns. Also steam workshop is nicely integrated / supported. If you liked Alien Swarm, you will love Reactive Drop, since it is Alien Swarm with some added features and content you can choose to enjoy. As a coop online game its gameplay is very addictive, you can host games easily just a couple of clicks - create game - you are running a game anyone can join - or just your friends if you want. If you have an old computer or extreme low bandwidth internet connection it maybe laggy for 8 players. There are plenty of dedicated servers with appropriate bandwidth that will give you a smooth 8 player online game though. Most people will likely already have computers and internet connections that can host for 8 players fine via the game. Like any game where anyone can easily host a game for a more than a few players - and there are server side hordes of enemies - not every host in the game list will be low latency all the time...
