Yes, they are shown in the light blue non armour uniform. and not in that ever armour you have put them in now!

The troopers are not shown the their current armour, only basic dress, is that intended or not?

If you go into the Armoury screen and change the load-out on a soldier, it will ask if you wish to over write, and when you click Yes, nothing happens, so you have to use the esc button, or the game remains frozen!

Soldiers tend to ditch unreliable weapons, as they don't wont to be in that situation were you pull the trigger, and all you hear is "Click, Click," Soldiers are trained to go through their AI's when a weapon stops working, but if the weapon falls outside there training expectations, you find another one quick!! When your life is on the line, you want certainty, and if that means double tapping the enemy, then that how it is.

We wait with baited breath!!

The graphics are not right, but if you press the small tab at the bottom of each aircraft, you can purchase them, as normal.

If you select the money, Yes that works!

With these purple men running around it might be a problem, when you have developed armour with the same colourization, careful you don't shoot your own men.

I have also encountered this problem.

On completing a recruitment mission you are given a choice of scientists, engineers or the money, so far after selecting the first two options, no recruitment has taken place, as no increase in the staffing level are shown in any of the screens.

Since V7 the drop ship can carry 10 personal, but on some of the missions you still get the old 8 personal capacity, with the last two stuck and can not move. This is to be fixed in V8, so we are told.

With the use of percentages on shooting you can either a small move and shot, move, or shot, as most cover is more than a half move apart. So part of the squad can move and the others provide cover or over watch fire!

I would prefer not to do air combat, and only do Auto resolve every fight. I can't see why there could not be missile sites doted around the globe, with radar, and then advance to engage in ground combat, with the downed UFO.

So is that to mean, that the people who write this game, are just going to give the players what they deem fit, just like some countries procurement system, and not develop better euipment. The back pack and utility belts, are also of value.

Armies don't issue weapons that have less than optimal performance to their troops, as it would be a dereliction of duty, to those in their care. I can't help but think, that this is a design failure, as an a temp to cover a whole. May need to go back and redesign this one!! Also the Laser weapon with their Walmart Batteries don't help This game needs to be fun, as well as challenging, and be able to be set at different levels of difficulty, if not this may be the end of the line.

If the game has been written, with new weapons, like the Plasma, and Lasers, in that they lose their magazine holding capacity, within the ground combat, will there be a research project, to stabilize and or increase the magazine holding capacity of such weapons.

Who would go into combat with a weapon that had a problem with its magazine, as you might as well pick up rock to throw. This just do's not feel right, if I were in this outfit, I would dump that weapon, and sharpen a stick!

The ammunition that is supplied for the Plasma rifle, seems to disappear without firing the weapon, and you have to take a lot more ammo and reload in battle.

I have just enter my first Cruiser in V7.4 and the lifts or teleport-er is still not working!!

Yes, You land and the mission ends before you even get out of the chopper.

I have all ways started in Europe, then the USA, followed by Australia

I hope that this is not going to be the final iteration of the main base as it has no improvements over the X1 bases, and it is so limited in design scope. Can we please come up with a better layout.

I have check alien officer, while in ground combat and have seen in the inventory that they have energy blades, but when you return the the base and check the stores they are not there?

By the time you get close to the alien raid or terror site, they either vanish or as the ground combat begins, the game is completed?

I have not see any civilians either!
