Title: Things that i want the X-COM games could be
Post by: REDACTED_KUN on July 05, 2016, 02:23:15 am
Hi. I'm here to explain some other stuff. I have interesting things to tell you guys about.

Here's a thing: I would liked to play some XCOM games (Well all i need is probably a desktop for EU2012/EW2013, The Bureau and XCOM2-2016) again.

But... I would be interested of playing it to be first person/third person army based tactical shooter like C&C Renegade or Saints Row games instead of Strategy.

I know that Julian Gollop created those games. I saw that he's working on Phoenix Point.

Here's what i want old and new X-COM games to be.

1: Keep the Geoscape view for base building and other stuff. (Very fitting for viewing the entire world)

2: First person/third person Interceptor dogfighting against UFOs. (Similar to old Interceptor style)

3: Make it to where it's first person/third person tactical shooter in battlescape missions. (That can be particularly interesting as far as i can tell.

4: Have power-ups for health, armor, stamina and more. (Especially strength power-ups, speed power ups, energy power-ups, etc.)

5: Destroy-able buildings and objects. (It can be fine)

6: I pretty sure it can 3D instead of 2D. (Like possibly models of everything X-COM).

7 *NEW*: Drive-able vehicles, cars and objects. (That will be fun)

And i think that's it for now on. *shrugs*

I never dared to dream this day would come ...
We might have a potential fan of xcom:enforcer here ;)

Well way to go, R1dO. I definitely could tell. I'm not really going to install X-COM Enforcer on my Alienware laptop because of my blacklist/whitelist for games on there.

The laptop i'm using costs a lot of money for me to use at some point (Because of blue screens of death).

I think that the point is. Here's what i want UFO:EU/X-COM:UD, TFTD and APOC should be.

1: Let the geoscape and base building part be strategy first. (That's very important)

2: Then let the battlescape (For UFO Missions, Terror Missions, Cydonia, etc.) be first person/third person tactical shooter like C&C Renegade or Saints Row Games.

That's the difference.

X-COM/Rainbow Six hybrid? I can't believe nobody ever did that.

Plan ops, then execute on fps with soldiers.

That what the X-COM Alliance was supposed to be.  Well, that's what the articles at the time had said.
