thats understandable, i wish they made a not so long not so long war or something that kept the cool class stuff and squad leaders and increased squad size and changed diplomacy without lengthening the timescale so drastically

I too miss the firing lines of full auto laser-rifle fire and rockets taking out farmhouses.

Edit: Firaxis claims that while developing the new XCOM they accurately remade the old game in the new engine and then started stripping things away that the modern console gamer can't understand. Kinda wonder why they don't just release that dev build.

lack of fire mode selection really bugs me. like that wouldnt even be THAT hard to do

it's probably because they lie

yeah i seriously doubt they went through the trouble to put in poo poo like facing, light sources, etc and then took it out. like that would be completely stupid on every level

Ain't facing in the new Xcom or is there a new new Xcom I didn't play yet.

yeah i mean like theres no way they had it in, as per the assertion that they completely remade the original game, and then removed it
