  1. The "new" X-Com is an utterly and disrespectful abomination that insults the X-Com name and drags it's X-Com "one of the best games EVER" awesomeness into the FPS mud that has taken over the game industry.

    Just for that i hope that 2K Marin go bankrupt soon and that the guy/s that had the "brilliant" idea of making an FPS X-Com die an horrible death.

    That is all

    ^^THIS^^

    This is one of those games that if forced to play, you would not be able to stay awake for more than 2 minutes. The new Xcom -fps is one large steaming pile of .......... They need shooting for this.

  2. Since the original UFO/X-com series there have been dozens of remake of one form or another, a few were allright-ish but most were bloody awful.

    I guess to keep those bits that made the originals great, and add those things that the originals lacked, is a very fine balancing act, and I would imagine a hell of a lot of work. But if it can be nailed down then there will be a lot of very happy gamers out there.

  3. They've already been removed for Build V8 I'm afraid. At the Expo people seemed to think they were loading screens and would spend ten minutes looking at them in puzzlement until I gently urged them to click the mouse...

    I was one of these people. I just sat there waiting for something to happen. :o

  4. Hi fellow squishy things.

    I originate from Manchester UK. I am new to Xenonauts but a lifelong addict of ufo/xcom games. I think I must have tried every clone of its type, but for one reason or another they all fell flat at one point or another.

    I am putting a lot of hope into Xenonauts, that this will finally be the one to bring the game into the 21 century and as such would like to wish Chris and his team a shed full of luck. :)

  5. Huge X-COM fan here. Glad to see this project in the works and I have to say the graphics are impressive. I love the cold war style of graphics, it is something fresh and original. Look forward to seeing the final product!

    I am finding the graphics give me that ufo feeling that we all love and remember. Only 2 things I have seen that don't seem quite right and they are...

    The shots don't seem to fly at the right angles.

    The aliens look to much like hoodies wearing tracksuit bottoms. :) Saying that, maybe aliens really do look like hoodies wearing tracksuit bottoms.
