Can we just get OpenXcom working without bugs first?!   I'm really having withdrawal pangs. :o

Can't wait,,,,,,,, can't wait,,,,,,,, must defend Earth,,,,,,,,, must kill aliens,,,,,,,,team must be prepared,,,,,,,,,,,scientists and engineers must be ready,,,,,,,,,,,,,,must keep funding stream active,,,,,,,,,,,,need their tech to survive,,,,,,,,,,,,,GO GETTEM XCOM!!

Seriously, I get beautiful Skyrim for D&D like dungeon exploring and now XCOM is remade?  I feel so guilty!

I've been tracking this since I first heard about it a while ago, the only thing that is really bugging me is no base defense?  That was one of the best parts.  That's really irritating.  Maybe in the sequel or a mod or something but how you leave that out I don't know. :-\

Hello fellow addicts,

I'm Rob from the U.S. - Yes, I originally purchased and still have X-Com and TFTD floppies (you can guess my age now).  Yes, I've been hooked since those 3.5 diskettes were first installed.  It's so great how you jump with those death screams or watch in horror as that plasma blast drifts across the screen only to hit your best shooter right in the freaking head putting him down! :(  I don't know of any other game that ever got me jumpy like the X-Com series and Yes, conquering the bastard aliens on their home turf of <<caution - spoiler alert>> Mars made me smile for a month.  ;D  I still remember the gaming bliss that I had to go to a whole freaking other planet to ultimately smash the buggers.  God that was just great - AND I WAN'T TO DO IT AGAIN! :D

In RL, I'm one the currently despised gov't employees in the transportation regulation business.  I needed my weekends off to play X-Com!! What?!

I just found this project like yesterday and after trying Xcomutil and UFOloader to no avail, I am a happy customer.  Unfortunately I'm not a programmer, so the only way I'll help is by telling ya'll whats not working.  Hoping this really gets done the right way.

All the best.
