I'm considering expanding it with movie characters too but I need some suggestions. Guess 80's action stars would a good place to draw from. Pluss WWE with Hulk Hogan as there seems to be hair made with him in mind. I think you can choose/tick which people a current campaign can use from your custom pool. | ||

Legend is designed to be easier than Impossible in the sense that it should be winnable without having to basically break game mechanics. But the devs have also been tweaking it to be more difficult than the preview build showed. | ||

I don't know about commander. Some preload news should drop today (3 days before release), but can't assure anything, so cross fingers, specially those waiting for the GMG codes :D How is each difficulty different than the others, do enemies get flat stats boosts and you have more of a handicap in higher levels like in EU? | ||

Supposedly Commander is the the new Classic (and harder than Classic, too). I think that enemies get stat buffs on higher difficulties (definitely more hp/armor) and there are more enemies as well. | ||

I believe in Legendary, buildings take longer to build and research as well. Also, more enemies I'd imagine and more health. | ||

But to begin with you should expect more enemies per mission/pod, and higher health, and obviously higher requirements for tech/build stuff. | ||

So pretty much just turned enemies into bullet sponges and handicapping the player. The good ol' civilization difficulty approach. *edit enemies don't get more health in civilization as difficulty goes up the enemy AI just start with more techs, a worker and settler and player is more gimped in every single way, is what I meant. | ||

As opposed to what? writing an AI that is actually more intelligent to the point where he beats good human players is incredibly difficult. So you have to give the aliens bonuses (hp and aim) and on the highest difficulty that is not enough for the challenge your only course is handicapping players. Sorry but your games don't come with Deep Blue software. | ||

The problems that i had seen is that at the preview and review builds, many enemies are very predictable completely pidgeonholed into roles and same use of skills over and over (pectoid's zombis...). Having more health and aim, actually is not a bad thing either. | ||
