In terms of the engine and graphics, everything is great, but the gameplay just killed me to hell.
cons: let's go:
1) you spend almost the entire game running around with firearms, with a rich arsenal of aliens
2) walls and textures cannot be penetrated
3) almost the entire game you are exploring antlerless corpses, only at the end of the game that - interesting
4) without cheat codes, some missions cannot be skipped or completed, one robot spent 2 days tinkering with
5) it is impossible to play accurately in battle without getting wounded, soldiers are always in the hospital or tired
due to forget about your favorite team, as before you can’t play with your friends when everyone has their own character, or with your family, some set of random characters with unclear responsibilities, and from fifty, why do I need 40 eternally sick soldiers in the barracks, for missions and 3 -5 is enough
6) not only are the soldiers in the hospital also terribly one-pointed like a sniper and nothing else, you can’t put any weapon on anyone, which completely kills the entire added variety of items
7) the visibility is disgusting the same the sniper in the game is useless from the word absolutely, always close combat and smears with a pistol that does not damage
8) in a battle without cheat codes it is impossible to save all the civilians, half die immediately.
9) the enemy is practically motionless, you can safely swing a sword at everyone, especially since alien weapons are explored at the end of the game.
10) I don’t even know how to take an alien alive at the beginning of the game, it’s just stupidly sore with earthly weapons, the game itself is absolutely not suitable for the title of UFO, terrorists at a masquerade
11) with the addition it’s difficult to have some kind of homeless mode, and so meager resources
12) missions cannot be skipped, missed 2-3 and start over.
result - they reinvented the wheel, why? Gocom was an ideal game that steamers mutilated - it’s far from original, just throw on Gocom (original) graphics and an engine from xcom-2 and it would be a masterpiece.
developer stupidly over-fed old gamer lover of hardcore mode to pamper his ego
personally, I love characters in heavy armor with heavy weapons (heavy plasma) which you can’t reach at an easy level with firearms
