Game Description:
XCOM 2 is the sequel to XCOM: Enemy Unknown, the 2012 award-winning strategy game of the year.
Earth has changed. Twenty years have passed since world leaders offered an unconditional surrender to alien forces. XCOM, the planet’s last line of defense, was left decimated and scattered. Now, in XCOM 2, the aliens rule Earth, building shining cities that promise a brilliant future for humanity on the surface, while concealing a sinister agenda and eliminating all who dissent from their new order.
Only those who live at the edges of the world have a margin of freedom. Here, a force gathers once again to stand up for humanity. Always on the run, and facing impossible odds, the remnant XCOM forces must find a way to ignite a global resistance, and eliminate the alien threat once and for all.
XCOM ON THE RUN: Take command of the Avenger, an alien supply craft converted to XCOM’s mobile headquarters. New open-ended gameplay lets you decide where to guide your strike team, how to grow popular support, and when to combat enemy counter-operations.
RECRUIT RESISTANCE FIGHTERS: Five soldier classes, each with its own skill tree, let you create specific soldiers for your tactical plan.
TACTICAL GUERRILLA COMBAT: New gameplay systems offer more tactical flexibility in combat. Use concealment to ambush enemy patrols. Loot enemies for precious gear and artifacts. Rescue VIPs and save fallen comrades by carrying them to the extraction point.
A NEW BREED OF ENEMY: A diverse cast of enemies from powerful new alien species to the ADVENT, enforcers of the alien regime, offer a distinct tactical challenge.
RESEARCH, DEVELOP AND UPGRADE: Configure and build rooms on the Avenger to give XCOM new capabilities on the battlefield. Use your Scientists and Engineers to research, develop and upgrade weapons and armor to fit your preferred tactics.
EACH MISSION IS A UNIQUE CHALLENGE: Go on missions around the world, from wildlands to the heart of the alien-controlled megacities, to the depths of alien installations. There are virtually infinite combinations of maps, missions and goals.
CREATE CUSTOM MODS: Community-focused tools allow you to create your own campaign, tactical gameplay, aliens, classes, strategy game features, and share within the Steam Workshop.
ENGAGE IN HEAD-TO-HEAD MULTIPLAYER: Mix-and-match squads of humans and aliens and battle head-to-head on randomly-generated maps.

The game had an awkward late night release so this one's a bit short. Longer episodes coming very soon! It's going to be a busy weekend.

13:39 Right. Overwatch had been the sensible thing to do but as you had said you are like an actor following the director´s orders. Yes, the haking could have been done better as in DEUS EX. HUMAN REVOLUTION, I love that design.

[@madsstergaard3518]

please name a guy Cubey😊 thx if you do😊 you coose thr class😊

[@Maric18]

Hmm i like the premise of this game. It is kind of critical of what is happening in politics^^ Without any information about misdeeds of the aliens (except for minor ones like having killed humans that attacked them) and with having information about them sharing parts of their superior technology, would you or would you not oppose ADVENT (which additionally ended war and hunger)? I would probably want to study the alien technology while staying as independent as possible, preferring freedom over security and independence over technology. ((And yes i know this sounds like the kind of statement every edgy dude on the internet makes, but for I reject the notion of smartphones because of the inherent loss of privacy which is not worth the benefits and i also use neither apple, nor microsoft, nor google created operating systems. (my youtube/g+ account does have a lot of information about me but that is as anonymized as i can get it)))

[@CussionTR]

Cussion applying for XCOM. No class preference.

[@1989darrenw]

I would love to be a ranger Darren weaver
