    Help identify this FPS

    Recently someone mentioned Brink to me and it reminded me somewhat of another FPS game I saw awhile ago, maybe in early or mid 2010 in a short video of gameplay, so I imagine it's already out or is coming out. I cannot for the life of me remember the name of this game though, and searching has led to so many dead ends I think someone else may be able to identify it based on the description below.

    Basically, the gameplay was FPS, the players had a variety of futuristic guns. The object seemed to be that many players were fighting to collect resources and aliens were swarming this pod that was collecting the resources from the ground. There may have been jetpacks or something similar. A pod-like thing fell from the sky (from orbit or something maybe?) and it was collecting something, and once the players had defended it from the aliens it closed back up and shot back off into space.

    I want to say the art style was very reminiscent of Borderlands, with that cell-shaded sort of cartoony feel. The alien enemies even looked like the Borderland aliens, they had many legs and such.


    Please let someone know what this is, it's bothering me now that I can't find it but I clearly remember the video.

    i'm going to say it was halo since halo invented fps.

    Spoiler: show
    googling alien fps popped up the most logical option being Prey.
