Can't wait to play. XCOM is probably my favorite game. One thing I hope they've improved though; and I actually like XCOM 1 better in this area, the sameyness of every map. They use about 3-4 seeds for all the common maps and you see them over and over and over. The first xcom seems to have so much more variety of locations while every map I see in XCOM ii has the same colors and elements. Also a bunch of buildings that you can never move through without getting spotted instantly. I'd really like to see Firaxis finally fix the Multiplayer too! It has so much potential to be a serious Esport esp among the boardgamegeek population. Just being able to mod it better with match variables would be awesome!

This game offers perhaps more freedom to the player later on than any other game, you basically decide your difficulty level within the difficulty you chose to start with. Bring 5 psi ops and a reaper for absolute dominance, nothing can really touch you unless you mess things up severely. 1 Reaper and 5 snipers can also do the trick although its only a tiny bit trickier... or do like I do, bring lots of rangers and the templar because its fun to slash stuff and activate pods for the pain.

And you do take losses too or one of your best soldiers gets just taken by one of the chosen. Its also awesome that the chosen are actually hunting you directly. I guess whats so great is that first the tactical combat is great. You can think an eternity on a move and often times just revealing one more square can trigger 2 other pods. Which makes conceal and scouting in general so great in xcom 2.

She can also teleport out one of my teammates with Exchange if they get into trouble. And I rolled Sustain on her, so she’s basically immortal. It’s like having a playable boss character with me on missions. I feel bad for the aliens sometimes lol.

Hopefully the glitch with the final mission is fixed lol. One more thing, they also seemed to have incorporated some of the workshop mods that were really popular.

This is old but appreciate the attempt to analyze and add some critique to this one. There is a lot of people not too into tactical games that play or review this and say "its good" and there is the hardcore fanatics that will play anything tactical and are beyond looking at things objectively, then you also have the worthless games journalism industry that is completely unreliable, so you cant get much feedback on a more niche title on this despite so many online sources. Personally, I thought this expansion made the game a little too easy, it's doing a bit too much trying to be more like an rpg which doesnt really fit, while the original Xcom 2 was a lot more tight and compact (though by no means balanced or perfect.) It's also trying too hard to be accessible but unfortunately casual fans would find it way too hard even in it's current state. The Chosen threat is artificial for the most part, they dont even kill your units at ALL (only daze + gather info) which doesn't even make sense when you're at their doorstep in the actual boss fight. They appear impossible to kill but after a few turns will give you a freebie and in the end when you down one of them the reward is substantial, especially once you get one of their weapons the game basically ends because they are beyond broken (more like RPG boss rewards.) The lost would be threatening if they weren't free to kill and since ammo reloading is infinite there is no strategy here, they may as well not be in the game, just time padding and filler. It feels like a modder was directing this and while I agree it fits surprisingly well all things considered, I didn't find my WOTC playthrough as engaging as original Xcom 2 where the threat of being defeated was much more real. A chosen encounter in vanilla Xcom 2 would almost certainly lead to a wipe or at the very least you would have to persevere the attack and wait for them to leave/minimize the damage, in WOTC you pretty much always down them and as your compounded team power escalates you do so with greater ease. In vanilla Xcom 2 the lost would not give you a free turn on hit and would not be as easy to hit, but again they dumb it down and even add an entire mechanic removing any threat or purpose to the lost enemies. Im not even going to say anything for general balance like Reapers being able to move + snipe AND having the best hacking, essentially making the Sharpshooter class obsolete. It's just way too easy coming back to it, especially with experience of playing through Xcom2 and having to learn how to mitigate and minimize risk as well as proper tactics in that game, but at the same time still way too steep of a learning curve for someone playing for the first time especially if they are not big on turn-based or tactical games. And ultimately you cant even play it on Iron Man as intended due to so much RNG factors being added in and the new bugs that all the new stuff introduces without fixing too much of what was already broken.

If this is your first strategy game, you may get turned off if not playing on easiest difficulty. While it's not as complex as games like Warcraft, Dota, or Starcraft, Xcom is a brutal dungeon master that can screw up the best-laid plans. But that is what keeps me coming back to it. When I have a unit killed in battle, I scream, grit my teeth, show that killer who's boss, then start over again. Then when I hit the game winning desperate 15% shot from extream range, it is euphoric. It's almost the same attitude as Dark Souls; whenever you get a unit killed because the enemy hits a 30% shot with a 10% crit while you're behind heavy cover, all we say is "That's Xcom baby."

I've been holding back from much of the hype (and certainly buying it) as i'm currently into a longwar2 campaign. I've just got my shadow chamber upgraded with the I've invested several days i guess of gameplay into this campaign, have a bunch of lw2 compatable mod classes, inc necro's, rangers, technical, and some others and..... I really don't know if i should burn what i have and catapult myself in 'bruno style with the bungee cords and the office chair" or wait till a LW2woc (LW2 stir fry) version comes out.. help me people.

Bonding system from Fire Emblem xD Now that you mention it, it DOES work that way. Funny. I like it.

Maybe a dumb question but can you still use the chars you used in the original game or do you completely start over?
