First off, I'm sorry for the crass first post title. Probably poor form. You know what else is poor form? Photoshopping a country out of the geoscape. Perhaps you think the Philippines is so poor nobody from there or who's family is from there will play your game. I generally always put my third base there- first covers europe from north africa, second sits in central america, the third covers SEA from the PH. It's really obvious I'm playing a game and not commanding an elite military force when our satellite maps are missing an entire goddamn country. What irks me most is since you're using a satellite map its clear somebody made the decision to just remove us, like a whole country of people isn't important. We run this fucking planet, filipinos do. Good luck shipping anything anywhere without hiring filipino seamen. Even THE FIRST XCOM managed to have the Philippines in there. They didn't model the islands accurately; naturally, why would you bother with all those vertices for something like that? That wasn't a big deal. This is! Perhaps the coverage of southeast asia is too valuable, or perhaps its a pain programming in collision detection for a bunch of tiny little islands- but if thats the case you need to suck it up. Japan works. Sri lanka works. I'm actually offended. I know its silly, but this is terrible. I was going to preorder as sooooon as I could afford it. I'm actually not so sure anymore. I don't feel like giving you any of my money. I'm sure I won't be the last one to angrily post if the game goes gold like this. Oh, also, windowed mode doesn't work, and the checkmark for "show explanatory tooltips" in the new game menu doesn't show; I think you can toggle the setting properly its just a display bug. Great game, also. Much more excited for this than the upcoming xcom lite. edit: lol I was so mad when I was making this account I mistyped my account name. Should be "scrubshine". See, its a big deal.

like the title says, will there be adjustment to the world map? I love x-com and played it when a lot when I was growing up the Philippines and I even completed a terror mission at my home city Manila! It would be cool if this archipelago could make it into the game
