I got an innovative idea too.

Now, with regenerative ammo.

Well, if you abstract it logically, that was used in the first Mass Effect.

Also, Battlefield 1943.

Congrats.

Anyway, Borderland uses that too,with end game weapons.

Or infinite ammo (ie. Laser weapons in XCom UFO Enemy Unknown) still challenging though.

I want a game that has Fort Zombie like gameplay, only better.

Defend Base
Choosing to save certain people with abilities (doctor, engineer, blablabla)
Scavenging

Change zombies to aliens and we're good to go.

Soon, every game will be FPS... its the future hahahaha

Whatever happen to Starcraft: Ghost? lolz

SC:Ghost was cancelled.

Don't say cancelled.

Console gamers get sad.

It's delayed indefinitely.

Sorry,it's actually delayed infinitely. That was the official statement.

Duke Nukem Forever's good friend.

Looks like I gotta rely on this:

UFO: Alien Invasion for my turn-based strategy need.

All aboard the hate train

RTS=/=FPS

Ah no wonder the superb discount in steam few months ago.

I am jumping on the love train, welcoming the new x-com.

yea!! i could not be happier

another title bastardized for console entertainment.

oh, my. they should just rape all titles from pre-2k era, ending this muthafacking thing once and for all.

QFT.

We were discussing that yesterday with Kianweic and I find it just does not make much sense to bring back Xcom as a FPS really.

You have 2 cases of gamers today:

- Those who are old enough (or play old games for fun) who know Xcom. Almost all of them would know Xcom for one of the first 3.
This group will be pissed off because they have been praying for a "Xcom-reloaded" with today's graphics and improvements

- Those who don't know about Xcom or maybe through the latest 2 which are considered "meh" at best.
For those to have "Xcom" will bring absolutely nothing as a marketing push, they just don't care about it.

So basically I just don't see why they bring back Xcom franchise for a fps that may have some tactical or other X-com-life controls in it.

I will check the game out but I really smell failure.

I do think a X-com life game with todays tech could have been pretty good AND successful. Look for example how many tactical RPG there are on consoles, they are not doing so bad at all even today.

hey, a bit too early to judge, perhaps?
maybe this X-Com will be a FPS strategy game?

gimme a while let me pitch in my imagination skills.

/me goes off to write ...

If they retain the base-building/management aspect, I'd say its close enough.

The thing about X-Com wasn't just the tactical combat, it was also the other stuff that made it stand out.

I am ok if it were something like Battlezone, Uprising and Hostile Waters.

Some elements of strategy plus action.

But I really do want a XCom reloaded as Gormaz mentioned.

With the all research, manufacturing and juggling your finances while fighting aliens at air / ground.

they should come out with balls and all to say that, this is a spin-off

something like x-com : interceptor.

but for this to be a true sequel, they should have just sell the name to beth. they are better in raping.

lets imagine now!
here's my idea for the new X-Com:

- you play the role of a commander for the X-Com project
- manage base building, operations, in first person view!
- can walk around in your own base, talk to men, etc, in first person view!
- see scientists dissecting dead aliens, in first person view!
- see scientist interrogating alive aliens, in first person view!
- see soldiers talking to one another, in first person view!
- check radar to see pilot engaging aliens, in first person view!
- lead your soldiers to ufo crash site, in first person view!

ok maybe i am asking for too much.
