ABOUT Aliens: Colonial Marines | Bug Hunt

"We're on an express elevator to hell! Going down!"

Greetings & welcome. Wanna join us? Info' below and the Request to Join button's your 1st friend.

That Steam group, since 2013 heartily dedicated to the Aliens™: Colonial Marines | Bug Hunt DLC,
is designed for worldwide folks having fun on that thrilling game mode signed by Demiurge Studios. That area's born with a pretty simple & cordial idea for the Bug Hunt players: enable them to reach others, share sweet information, make appointments, join & propose Bug Hunt events and more. Indeed, also looking for some peeps wishing to play Classic Multiplayer modes? See below.

2013-2022 rules, simple but firm. Please, have a cordial attitude and respect any member / partner.
No insult. No spam. No teamkilling. No politics. No religion. No fake. No Steam trade. No scamming.
No sexism. No racial abuse or any discrimination tolerated. No brainless A:CM troll. Any behaviour
of this kind, for any reason, will lead the authors to ban. Irrevocably. Thank you for your attention.
Recent or 1+ VAC, Ban Records, private, disrespectful profiles not accepted for check-in.

┌ Some cool ways ( links below ) to reach Bug Hunt & Classic Multiplayer mates here:
•• the Steam Group Chat ( blue button on your right here ) offering cool Text & Vocal options
•• the 7/7 Multiplayer USCM enroll list ( 7/7 updated / refreshed ) • Closed in December 2021
•• the Bug Hunt Co-op' Sessions ( 2013 to 2020 - Every Saturday ) • Closed in September 2020
•• the Player of the Week thread ( May 2013 to January 2020 ) • Closed in January 2020
•• the Forums Section ( six categories - check the right side - and all yours )
•• the Comments always useful here & there and in the Comments Section
└ Any grey area? We'll be glad to answer any of your questions.

A:CM's auto-matchmaking sucks, so Steam Add Requests ( to receive & to send ) are the Key ✓

Winter 2021 Edit | That's it, the 2021 elite game Fireteam is available. Sweet.
Always great to see a new "Alien(s)" game showing up. May you have much joy of it.
However, despite some closed or closing group sections, that Steam group
remains open so far, just'n case, for people simply wishing to play some
good old Bug Hunt, or even some Classic Multiplayer modes.

September 1, 2020 | Corps still open but Events closing

More than 7 years of great & intense Bug Hunting Sessions every saturday since 2013, sweet.
No worries, as mentioned in the Group Chat tuesday, that little Steam area above all dedicated to the Bug Hunt DLC is not closing. Sooner or later, obviously it will, but definitely not now and, against all odds, the Corps are kind of still nicely holding water and still kicking asses So, it's pretty simple: the ACM-BH | Co-op' Session 379 will be the last one, at least last one posted as an event. That being said, Bug Hunting here remains available 24/7, same for all Steam tools, most of you now know how to use them, and of course, most of you all now know how Steam works with the game and how the game works with Steam.

Why and now what? Enroll list & Group Chat still available

Simply because behind nicknames & avatars, there are IRL people, lives, and sometimes some sudden uncertainties, obligations and priorities. Worrisome when concerning beings we love. This doesn't mean stop playing Bug Hunt and leaving Steam but organizing such weekly events is unfortunately not possible any longer when tomorrow becomes too blurry.

Now What? Well, sweethearts, as most of you all you may know now, the Search function of the auto-matchmaking sucks as Hell since Day One, but God save Valve, Steam groups and the sweet Steam tools & options such as Group Chats, Add Requests, Friends aka Contacts activities, Comments, In-Game statuses, Invitations, Join Game buttons, etc... are the definitely the Keys to reach players and keep'n touch with them.

So, the ACM-BH Group Chat keeps running 24/7 and the 7/7 Multiplayer USCM enroll list is still available & updated every day for a while. Of course, the Discussions & Comments sections are still here and at your disposal as well. Feel free to remind to newcomers that only joining a group without paying attention to the content & activities and/or only adding someone and nothing else is useless and that full privates profiles definitely never help. We can't reach & add players we can't see. Games left behind by publishers, and developers need proactive & contributing people.

Reason why... simply GGs and thank you Folks

Indeed, thanks to all, but reason why we'd like to thank a nice bunch of people who are, or were, or always were (extremely) proactive, and directly or even indirectly but definitely helpful for these seven sweet years of Bug Hunt Co-op' events.

New Group Chat 2018: Text chat, vocal chat, all channels needed for Bug Hunt and Classic Multiplayer, way more ergonomic and playful options, attractive and really pleasant, nice folks.
Available via your Steam Client, your Web Browsers, and even your Mobile Devices.
Free Steam Mobile information here.

As you may know, we made stats about the interest in the TeamSpeak server. Stats are available and we made a decision about a necessary and obvious replacement, making sense. Necessary, obvious, and making sense, yes, but maybe not a definitive decision. Let's see how Valve will improve that new and great Group Chat, already promising but still in beta. In case (who knows) of disappointment later, if we decide to come back to TS (+ Discord maybe), we kept a backup of all your original "TS use" interest entries until November 2, 2018 here.

[] box interest stats | August 15, 2015 - November 2, 2018

= Number of entries ............................................................. 777 entries 100%
= Interested in the TS server / Used it ................................. 153 entries 19.69%
= Nope / Not interested in that server .................................. 196 entries 25.23%
= Never gave information (?) ............................................... 428 entries 55.08%

All-in-One | In a single place

With the new 2018 version of Valve's Group Chat (text & vocal channels available this time) that came out this summer, we all now got an All-in-One. Members, players (as in any Steam Group, not always the same), forums, enrolled people (Steam A:CM Multiplayer USCM 7/7 updated enroll list) really asking to reach others, comments section, announcements section, events section, and that new Group Chat V2018 offering many useful options way more ergonomic than before.
Promising, definitely. Feel free to check that Valve information here.

In other terms, no need to split everything & everyone, here & there. Undeniably, Steam A:CM players don't need this, they really don't, especially if we got everything we need in a single place and as you can see, stats are clear, the interest in TS is too weak since the beginning. We really wish to sincerely thank all people who gave us support (even sometimes via Tokens donations in 2015 & 2016 before the maintenance issues we met) but let's face it: the replacement is called Valve's Group Chat. TS and even Discord became here for now obsolete.
That being said, good news, the website is still in the works.

Thank you for your attention.
Have fun and play nice.
