this game is like tactical strategy game? like red alert or total war right?

i'm really bad at this kind of game, my brain nearly explode when playing. even during tutorial. sweat.gif

very different from red alert.

for one, xcom is turn-based strategy game. there are also resource management elements in the game where u decide what research/production to be prioritise.

loved the original x-com series  smile.gif

like civilization? ok that's worse sweat.gif

normally u start off the game by looking at the structure of your base.

then u build ur base, hire soldiers, train soldiers, do researches, buy/manufacture weapons/equipments.
this is where u have to manage your resources and time because they all takes time to be completed or delivered.

while doing all that, you can speed up the game until an event occurred. be it ur research complete, soldier/equipment arrives, alien activity detected, or even some world news event.

if there's alien activity, you select your troops to be deployed for this mission. and they will travel there. upon reaching, the whole game shifts towards the tactical/strategy screen whereby now u will command your troops in a turn based environment. (a little bit like Fallout Tactics if you played that before. just that this one doesn't have real time mode)

they changed the turn base system a bit, it's no longer using action points (AP). for this u need to play the demo to understand. quite hard n lengthy to explain sweat.gif

Try to DL the demo or get the Legendary (too much D3 lately) UFO:EU or UFO:TFTD to try la. hard to say how it is.

Endgame for EU/TFTD is to attack the alien base.

It is a bit like Total War, except your battles are being fought in turn based. Just watch the video, thats the video that sold me the game.
Firaxis has been making a lot actual gameplay videos for the past few weeks.

okay, maybe I should try the demo then. but I already passed the $32 offer, so maybe next year, if the game suits me. hmm.gif

QUOTE(y3ivan @ Oct 4 2012, 02:54 PM)
is it that difficult to understand? nowonder they changed syndicated to FPS.

don't blame me, I'm really bad at management and strategy games. I can't even manage myself IRL. sweat.gif

if the game also include super fukken awesome armor and weapons like Hellgate London (seriously that's the only thing that I like about that game tongue.gif ), I might consider it at 50% instead of 75% whistling.gif

you can try GMG with the 25% coupon GMG25-EVFWS-4Z4ZN, but the coupon is going to expired soon (1100 UTC October 8th).
http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/my/en/pc/g...-enemy-unknown/

or you can buy from amazon for $45, use the coupon OCTOFUN1 for 25% discount, for $33.75. but coupon only valid once per customer.
