Offtopic / OpenXcom Terror from the Deep --- How far along is it?

« on: September 14, 2016, 05:54:43 pm »

OpenXcom is awesome so I'm quite curious how far along is it? Could I play it from start to finish without running into a brick wall or should I wait a year or so? (No poblem w the latter; I understand mods take a long time to make.)

Also, do I need to install TftD from Steam first?

Open Feedback / Flood of Terror Missions. Is this normal?

« on: August 16, 2016, 08:13:40 pm »

I was hoping the devs preserved the normal "Beginner" pacing of the game but nope. The first five skirmishes I had were all Terror Missions. Now the first of the snakemen and psychic sectoids have made their appearance and my operatives are all still in coveralls.

While people are obsessing over Pokemons, I'm here lamenting over the dearth of Elerium-115 in my latest X-COM run.

In the original X-Com, I always had 1-3 skirmishes involving a downed UFO before a terror mission. Five in a row with no downed UFOs is just frustrating. There's no Elerium to be had hence no armor research is possible.

Is this normal in OpenXCom? If so, how do I set the game to be more like the original X-Com?
