Finally X-Com was released - I was full of hope about that game, because I really enjoyed the original series of that game, even when I have to say I liked X-Com Apocalypse most. Whatever - Steam released the game and because the download has 12 Gigabyte (!!) it was very kind, that they allowed to pre-load the game before the official release date (without allowing to play it :-)). So that was a nice turn. And after all I ended up just starting up the game right 1 Minute after release - top - that's why I like steam. To the game: In my last review about the demo I mentioned many negative things but kept some hope that everything will be better in the final release. Short words: No - it isn't. Giving a First Statement I cannot understand how this game did get that much good reviews on different magazines - really I cannot understand it. Let's answer some questions: Is there an Inventory in X-COM Enemy Unknown?No - there is not - I am sure, that is because of making the game also for the Xbox and inventories like they were in X-Com are not handleable with a controller. You can equip one rifle, one pistol one suit (not suit parts only complete suit) and a nade (later 2 nades) .. so there are only 5 slots that's it .. it's crap So I cannot pick up enemy drops?Right, You cannot pick them up, they does not exist. Even worse, if you shoot an enemy, his stuff gets destroyed to pieces - funny .. but far far away from the original game But I can sneak in their UFO!?Ahm .. yes and no. Yes, you can enter their UFO after shooting it down with one (yes, only ONE!) fighter. But you cannot sneak in there, because you cannot sneak - you can only run .. no crouching etc - only running. So all you can do is run from cover to cover - far far away from original X-COM. But I can produce my own weapons?Yes - you can make an order for a weapon production - but there is no time, you get that weapon immediatly as soon as you have all needed resources. Not sure, if you can sell them, but I think not - there are some "quests" where you have to produce and deliver distinct parts .. remind me on stupid "let's make content by quests" Can I have multiple bases around the globe?No, you can't. There is only ONE base and that's it. Can my base being raided by aliens? | most popular at reiti.net: Robo Miner for Android Minesweeper: Unlimited! for Android Personal Blog of reiti.net advertisement: |
