Contra
- Steam activation / Attachment bit annoying
- Start of the game a little more difficult
- Little resources at the start, quickly jump from financial donors, even with great effort
- Game control sometimes arbitrarily :) .. but can be to get a grip by 1 / 2-1H Time.
- Unfortunately, in the battle mode limits of 6 soldiers, which is tricky now and then (as aliens usually the upper hand).
Who turn-based strategy prefers frantic real-time strategy games, will be thrilled! Finally a sequel that does not disappoint!
Incidentally, XCOM is noisy PC Games Online the new strategy reference and scored 92%!
For delivery time, I can only say 12:10. Publication day and I had my game already on 11/10. on the table and was able to get started thus.
For me, there's an old XCOM fanatics (I also played as alternative Ufo Extrarestrials or played something like that) absolute 5 star for the absolutely excellent continuation of the genre.
Maybe a new version or addon comes this time a little more quickly and does not last as long again :)
