But it happened to me twice in around 100 maps where i controlled something. But be happy that happened, otherwise you would have sacked the stun lancer into the chrysalis and corrupted your saves like i did lol. Had my first active all pods situation on a vip mission. Moved into cover 7 fields ahead ... 11 enemies on me. Luckily it was a street with not to much cover ... so they cuddled around 2 cars which engines were rather close together. Reached the evac before reinforcmenents even arrived. | ||

About meaningful choices, i do not know what people want when they say that to be honest, but XCOM is about optimal choices, something that in the hardest difficulty should be enforced. | ||

About meaningful choices, i do not know what people want when they say that to be honest, but XCOM is about optimal choices, something that in the hardest difficulty should be enforced. The longer research and build times certainly increase the build times and force optimized research and build paths. I'm just not sure that it's fun. I like the tougher aliens and higher number of pods. But I'd rather have some more flexibility in what I do. Also, it is taking me forever to level up my troops. I just got my first captain before the third retaliation mission (with wet work). That's kinda punishing and unfun. | ||

Yeah, it's mostly because they got together marathon mode + impossible and from there they did legendary. They should have had a non marathon legendary as a gap in between, but i think it should be easilly moddable through .inis if you wanted. Changing the character stats from legendary into commander and then increasing pod's size. I enjoy it more because it makes the game more difficult longer, but once i reach plasma, i stop playing and start a new playthrough to be honest.

Like, that should say something about the massive range the random roll has in the wounding equation. It's so dumb. | ||
