shabowie Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 There is already much more to air to air combat in xenonauts than xcom. So far I think that aspect of the game is superior. Any others jump out at you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tass Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 The ability to assign Roles as a template to your soldiers, makes for a much more strategic element. A more sensible research tree structure Better movement , like jumping over a low fence. Thats just a quick three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skvid Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I hope that once the game enters beta there is going to be a load more obvious superior elements in the quality of gameplay in general. Right now though i cant say much other than what others said. Oh, the UI is superior to other xcom games, even the old UI in the current build.

Harmonica Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Map randomisation, map editing, skill points, inventory loadout, action points, the kitchen sink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 ... the kitchen sink. actually, there's a washroom sink in the medical facilities, so actually you're right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaCruise Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I just hope that shooting down UFO´s will be somewhat challenging but not a road block. After all its the ground combat that drives X-COM and not the air battles. A balance must be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I'm sure there have been plenty of posts (and from the devs) pretty much looking for exactly that. It's just a nice bonus that the air combat is so much better than any of the others. Bear in mind though, that a lot of folks really liked the interception part of the original so the game should cater for them to a degree too. Like you say it's a balance. A proportional thing. Something EU2012 hasn't really done for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorzahg Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I think the cover system in Xenonauts is superior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
