I rather wait for it go under $10 or when I have nothing much to play.

I think that would take longer than it going on sale below USD10.

Doubt so, indie games prices tend to drop fairly quickly.

I am not going to play it now anyway, so i can wait.

just to add http://www.ionisingsoftware.co.uk/isomer/

description for tl;dr:
Isomer is an alphafunded isometric strategy game inspired by classic XCOM games, Dwarf Fortress and many other survival titles

very Alpha but if you're not afraid of how it looks, then it maybe something to look forward to.

Portent is actually quite difficult. You need to be either very lucky or memorise the sequence of the enemies appearing.

One of the weakness of these story based maps are, the enemy appearance is scripted so if you had killed all the enemies on screen, you can camp there as long as you like before more spawn. You can use those down time to reload and overwatch while someone scouts in front.

Still, nothing beats that special one off mission with some really well implemented horror elements.

I still want another XCOM expansion. Firaxis please? The last quarter of the game still sucks.

Is there a multiplayer co-op in EW?

Wonder if I could skip Portent? I'm not prepared at all for this mission, no carapace armor, lacking higher level soldiers, etc.

No multiplayer coop. This is a single player game for the most part with a poor tacked on multiplayer.

You can skip Portent by failing or you ignore Council's plead for the mission. However, this is not a one off mission as it leads to a few missions as you progress through.

Ahh thanks!

Losing a few countries alrwsdy, I think I'll have to restart again... As I didn't really plan my buildings properly, launching satellites, uplinks and I don't have enough engineers all the time! So yeah, probably gonna lose more countries soon..

Btw as for research project, which should I prioritise? I straight away went for carapace armor lol. What about that stun gun to capture alien's alive? What does that lead to actually?

You are bound to lose some countries. You wont be able to keep all of them

As for research, I think it is better to leave it up to you. More fun to be honest as you need to live with your mistakes.
