Dumbed down and sometimes broken
So I played this quite some time ago and it's one of those titles that just gets worse as you play and start to see how poorly made it is. Here is my list of serious issues 1) Enemies don't actually move or do anything unless they're in an activated state. This has a few problems: - If you move slowly enough you can see aliens without activating them and just pick them off without them fighting back - Since the aliens don't actually do anything, any civilian you do not have eyes on has a chance of death every turn even if there are no aliens anywhere near them. They just commit suicide I guess? 2) Cover doesn't actually do anything unless you're right behind it. Bullets will fly through everything like they're not there, but take one step forward and all of a sudden you get lots of cover.....but only from that one object directly touching you. The difference would really be minor in reality but the game is all or nothing. This forces you to play a certain way and makes it so taking a more covered path is pointless because to the game you're in a wide open field, though visually it's a forest 3) The removal of time units and other things reduces your tactical options even further. I would write more about this but really this game is a hollow shell and I can't be bothered anymore. The music in new X-com is good though, so there is that. Anyone interested in games like this should be looking out for xenonauts 2. It's pretty much guaranteed to be far better for anyone who wants some depth and choice.
