UPDATE:
After some hours I find out a solution to avoid keyboard issues - and the game is much much better now.

Good points:
Online play: it is fun - it is pure random people you play with, however you can deduce their skill based on their ranks. Higher the chance to win game on harder levels - better their rank.
Or best - play the game with your friends with voice chat. That is this game build for! That is enormous fun - on harder levels you will get ton of fun, interesting and sometimes freaking scary situations - atmosphere is real - like from real Alien universe.
Great graphics, the devs knows the Alien universe, puns everywhere.
One of the best Alien coop games - finaly after AvsP. Good choice of classes each class is playing differently.

Bad points:
Too few missions (even for this price range) - and prescripted alien spawn - this game deserves random spawn mechanism or random prescripted mechanism. This would affect replayability in a great way! (Now after few games alien spawn will be predictable)
Also the not moving mouth of NPCs is kind of weird in modern game.



Old review:
Game is good if you play it solo (single player) - although there are only few missions, game is intened to play online.

Following was fixed for me by playing in fullscreen (the keyboard works all the time after I switch windowed to fullscreen):

However there it ends horribly.
More than 70% of time you lose controls in online game - meaning - you cant use abilities, heal yourself (or others) - pickup/use items - and mainly - restore ammo. The keyboard (mouse) just wont respond.
I dont know what is causing it but it ends in disaster - and of course you will loose the mission.
Happens to me countles time that I eneded at the final battle just with pistol (has unlimited ammo) and having a medpack I could not use to heal anyone..

Take this as warning - do not buy it for online gaming until this will be solved (but I think it never be).

Thanks @Assassin will check it out, I do have US international KB set, but will try to rebind keys (I actually tried it to rebind it to my mouse 5th and 4th buttons - but no help)
