I wonder if Obsidian Conflict will take the jump to the Alien Swarm engine.
It is a branch of the portal 2 engine apparently.

Well, I've played it with some people, and it's pretty good, you gain XP and unlock weapons and it requires teamwork. you have 8 characters, 2 for each class, there is only one female character, it has some voice commands, and it uses some source sounds and props and textures here and there.

The camera angles and shooting can take a few minutes to get used to, but it's alright overall.

You of all should enjoy it seeing as its gameplay mechanics are similar to SmashTV.
'I would probably smarten up before you meet Violet'.
'She has zero tolerance for idiots'.

I enjoy it because it's a nice multiplayer that is generally very private. Just kinda like a chill out type of game to play with friends.
