Open Feedback / To field promote or not to field promote

« on: July 31, 2023, 06:26:07 am »

Hi all,

I've got the OXC setting "field promotions" turned on, meaning that only the soldiers that were in the battle can be promoted. Does anyone else have this turned on or is it not worth it? I like the feel of it personally.

Hi all thanks for the responses. I know it's been a while lol. Haven't played XCOM in long, but going to crack out some tonight so I'll put these tactics to good use. Thanks again all. All the best

Well I'm playing OpenXCom, I think that counts? The main problem seems to be that the Sectoids don't need LOS to be able to mind control half my squad in 1 turn.

Open Feedback / Second Sectoid base defence

« on: October 05, 2022, 04:58:04 am »

Hi all,

Second time around now in a playthrough (on Veteran difficulty), that I've had a complete wipe on a Sectoid base defence. Within two turns I might add. Only a month and some change into the game. My soldiers are immediately mind controlled and turned on each other, or they panic. I am relatively shit new at the game, having not completed it yet; but I always seem to hit a dead end with base defence, with Sectoids at least. I have had success with floaters mind you, they don't seem to be nearly as tough. Is it really down to RNG or am I missing something? All the best,
