A 4x game is a bit more than I was thinking, although I can see how it would end up like that. This seems wildly complicated and involved, but a 4x game that could somehow integrate the Xenonauts / X-Com tactical combat would be pretty cool. It's probably too ambitious to wish for such a game and if it existed, few would have time to play it....

Hi All, I haven't even started playing this game. It's downloading now. I have been watching it for awhile. In the meantime, I have been playing Enemy Within (after Enemy Unknown). This is a stripped game from the original Xcom, but Enemy Within is especially enjoyable. I am expecting this game to be even better with many more options and even greater immersion. All that said, I would like to see new Xcom games based on a counter invasion. Why couldn't Xenonauts 2-3 be games where we take the fight to the aliens? This would allow for even more innovation, some "exploring" of the place they came from etc. I could even see see a strategy game where you build up your bases to launch a counter-attack, all based on our own advances along with the alien tech. Of course, I would not want to change the tactical play.... What do you guys think? Regardless, I am getting ready to fire up the game and have some fun.
