After a TFTD remake... I wanna see Lobstermen, Tasoth, Aquatoids, Gillmen, Deep Ones Calcinites, Tentacaults, and ofcourse the Heavies, Xarquid, Triscene and Hallucinoids. Maybe not so much Underwater Combat, but definately the characters and Story. the idea that XCOM defeated the Aliens only to find a group coming out of hibernation that are already here i thought was a Really great Concept.

Hey did 2K changed the game doesn't it? Cause now the bar with your actions is down instead of being in the upper left side, or is that a view option? Can someone respond cause I wanna know :D

Superior to evry preceding XCOM, and knockoffs. The publics game vids don't show off the squad dynamics. Someone should show a short clip, like setting up an overwatch killzone, an trooper moving in enemies line of sight, then out, in cover of killzone, enemies storm in, only to face the barrage of incumming fire. some assault run and gun in, dodging enemies overwatch, and fire flanking shots, then sniper fire to take out any survivors. That would show off the game play. Apocalipse remake pls?!

Just a question to all devs. Why release your game on different dates even on digital distro like steam. This can be one of the things that contribute to piracy. (I bought it on steam) I know that there are ways around it like VPNs to activate early but why add the extra layer to get to the product. Just a thought i mean i could be wrong and they actually have a reason for this.
