  1. I find the night mission quite funny..it's realistic that a mission into the dark were a bit..hazardous..but in the late 70's the nightvision googles were widely used..(i remember some special ops in Vietnam and the six days war,and the german used the first them for the first time at the end of ww2..)i feel realistic that a ultra elite organization like the xenonauts have some of them in their array...

    Doesn't this game take place in the mid 60s?

  2. You're not supposed to be able to effectively use the alien weapons. They mention this in the xenopedia entry for the alien pistol. You eventually research ways to manufacture plasma weapons that humans can accurately fire. This solves the pacing problem in original X-COM where you could get access to really effective plasma weapons in the first month or so of the game.

    Yes it would be more convenient to get really accurate plasma weapons right out of the gate, but it would also be convenient to have a "win mission" button. Neither ideas are good game design.
