I hate Xcom 2, timed missions ruin the whole experiance of the game, you cant play tactically because you have to rush the objective and lose half your squad, so they never level up and eventually become shaken and lose will, you can gain this will back by winning a mission without them taking damage, good luck with that. add to this you have to fight overpowered units right away when in earlier Xcom 1 it took a good few missions before they appeared, now you have mind control units surrounded by other units with 6 bars of health, and your first gun only does 3-4 damage or 4-5. so you have to focus fire and rush out of cover and shoot because of how little cover there is in this game, unless you want to find cover behind a car which can blow up after a few shots.

The game sets up like your meant to be this bad ass team of resistance fighters that ambush the enemy, but its the enemy that does the ambushing here, you get the drop on them but most hits miss so its absolutely useless. you will never get enough supplies for all the good stuff because you will be spending it all on new recruits since they cost more than twice as much this time.

If you finished Xcom 1 on normal difficulty don't bother playing Xcom 2 unless you finished the first game on the highest difficulty, this game is for those people. they centred the game around most of the player base losing Xcom 1 but made Xcom 2 twice as difficult and frustrating. Make Sense?

I only paid like £5 or something for this but I still feel ripped off because it wasted my time as I did not enjoy it like I did the first one.

Constant Crashes, not worth playing on PC, you would get a better experience buying a second hand PS3 and playing it on that with the worse graphics.

This game is horrible, AI is too good, it never makes mistakes, no point in having damage on because you will just be in last place. There was no point adding controller support because obviously this game will only work well with steering wheel, which must give you super powers because sometimes the AI can overtake me in the same car as me when I'm going top speed.

The game still feels like its in early access. very barren and boring.

This game is fun to begin with, but unless you want to mess around with all the guns, gets boring fast as you play the same missions over and over in the same place to get the best men or weopons. It's even more repetative than Ubisoft Titles in my opinion. just the worst Metal Gear game I have ever played other than maybe Peace Walker which I could accept its faults for being on a old Handheld device.

Interesting Game, If a little short, Its like a Platformer but it keeps you on the edge with the stamina bar, aswell as surviving Bandits ofc, cant have a post-apocaliptic story without them =)

Fantastic............ It has a choice system that in my opinion beats the mass effect franchise, but dont be fooled its a puzzle game not a action game, and it has a good story.

although you should play this for the choice system before the puzzles.........

If you like post apocalyptic games with monsters and atmosphere, and don't mind corridor shooters to open world, you should try this. But just make sure you have Russian subtitles unless you dont mind bad voice acting......
