May 27, 201313 yr Does anyone knows if Firaxis will do something more with XCOM ? I've returned to it after cheap Slingshot DLC on Steam and found that the game is still full of annoying things like that stupid teleporting - magical viewing system or aliens switching position on load.
May 28, 201313 yr What as in more DLC or more patching? The teleporting issue isn't as bad as it was (well, I don't think so) but it seems to be something fundamental with the game mechanics to me. Always going to be a problem. As for DLC - I get the impression that'll be more of an expansion rather than just more DLC.
May 28, 201313 yr Both I guess. Well the teleporting isn't that much of a problem - but when you load a game and aliens moved somewhere else that is a problem. Once on a battleship I've made a save/load and guess what - got Sectopod in a place where technically he was in my view sight but I had to move to spot him.
May 29, 201313 yr I find the bugs in it are more critical when playing ironman - you can't just back and reload. A really shame as ironman is clearly the mode in which the game should be played
May 30, 201313 yr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6U-i65cLzc :: The iOS version is reportedly to be released in the Summer as described in this brief article at Polygon.
May 31, 201313 yr We are no doubting about the sequel - but will they support this game further or just leave for the sequel.

June 8, 201312 yr I hope the design is less oriented towards touch devices and consoles, and more oriented for PC.
June 9, 201312 yr @Zombie: You really should consider finding a little room in your collection for these lovelies one day... He needs a bigger house for that I have plenty of room, bring 'em on! Cash on the other hand, is short. And let's face it, Jake isn't selling anytime soon. - Zombie

December 24, 201312 yr Well I've got to say - the Enemy Within add-on sure do increase the difficulty rating very much. Today I've finished I think the most dangerous mission in all x-com games I think.... although we can argue either this or any terror missions / colony attack / artifact sites in TFTD are even more dangerous. Also the new maps are also good - no more fighting UFOs only in woodlands.
December 24, 201312 yr All missions can be finished It's only matter of how many save slots will you make

March 4, 201412 yr https://downloads.2kgames.com/xcom/sites/enemyunknown/img2/complete_FOB.jpg :: 2K Games has announced that XCOM: Enemy Unknown - The Complete Edition is now available.
March 4, 201412 yr Now they call it complete edition but soon we will hear about Definite Edition for XO and PS4
March 5, 201412 yr Wasn't the just recently released EW meant to be a complete collection of sorts? Now there's more? I think I'll skip buying EW then and wait for the Honest-To-Goodness-This-Is-The-Final-"Complete"-Complete Edition. - NKF
March 5, 201412 yr NKF - the EW is not standalone so you need to buy XCOM:EU. So usually if something has big additional contents they release "Complete Edition". My post was a little joke reference to the Tomb Raider: Definite Edition made specially for PS4 and Xbox One - which adds "new" features for the console versions which were already included in the PC version (except better textures and redesigned Lara model).
