Damn US always got this and that, gonna make sure they burn in XCOM and save other continent instead

metacritic is sitting on an 88 score nao

Lol in this xcom, if you play in classic difficulty, you will need two boxes of lube.


Just now, I play 4 hours of xcom eu.
Quite nice.
Economics now more important now. you WILL RUN OUT OF CASH VERY FAST. If you are not, you are playing it in baby's mode.
NO more russian rookies with grenade tactics anymore. every soldier is important. add to the fact that soldiers cost moolah, you will run out of fresh bodies fast .
I play only until third month, almost lost France and Nigeria.
Important tip, manage every single credit like it's your real saving account. Make every purchase count. DO NOT BUY SURPLUS ARMOR/GUNS/FACILITY. You will regret fast fast.
Officer school is very very important. Buy only squad and hospital upgrade there.


These tips applicable only for classic mode.
Cause there's no way to lose in easy mode. The developers practically guarantee God mode for your last soldier every single battle.

Added on October 10, 2012, 2:16 amOh yeah, additional note:

DO NOT INVADE ALIEN BASE UNTIL YOU WANT TO END THE GAME ALREADY
Make sure all six are taichou level and above.
My squad kena rogol puas puas by the 3 3-crysallid patrols in that base.
Also f*** cryssalid , they are damn dangerous and fast.


Oh yeah if you don't like the squaddie upgrade from rookie, remember to save before you complete every mission.
rookie upgrade to different classes only happens once you are back in the base.

Thanks for spoiling the game. Did you use vpn to play the game or got it from torrent?

Hmmm......
Did not realize giving common gameplay tips are called spoiling the game.
But whatever

Until then, I will let my posts remain as they were.

like the old XCOM.. i think we can have multiple alien base and we can attack at anytime.. since the last mission is in Cydonia...
so in this XCOM the final mission will be this single Alien Base?

hmmm this.. i was hoping to drag the game as long as i could before going to the final base and go on the alien base raid run before the final misson, i guess that wouldnt be the case la for this time around...
no worry will play it and see..

thanks for the tips..

Cheesenium never played the original game before so he never knew about the part which you advise people not to do.

just put everything in spoiler. not everyone play the old X-COM you know.

need spoilers meh wtf

now i know what to do ._.

not exactly based on what I read in the internet.
but if you rushed into the base early in your gameplay with minimal firepower, armor and experienced troops,you will get raped in the base. Very very hard.

imagine going against crysallid in the original xcom with 14 troops with still beginning earth weapons.
now, imagine 6 troops going against 3 crysalllid appearing suddenly
imagine due to game mechanics, they get instant free one movement to get near your troops when you both meet.
remember you get only one action and one move per turn for each soldier.



in short,
prepare lots of lube

might need to get spare mouse and keyboard too, from the way u describe it hahaha...

If and only if we can maintain a +ve account balance.

some spoiled things I can ignore. but not for others.

ala just add spoiler tag je, not really hard meh?

this game is hard for me.... i feel dumb

play in baby mode (easy)
sure win no matter what you do.
aliens' AI also goes from IQ 120 to 10

xcom, why you slow slow come out?
