Land Rover cost
« on: September 15, 2024, 09:41:25 pm »
Even if I  understand the utility of a Land Rover for the game and that balancing and realism is not the main focus of the game
Purchase Cost   $150000
Rental Cost   $25000

the rental cost is 10000 more than an Osprey or a AH6 and 19000 more than an Helicopter (this one is very cheap).
The purchase cost is debatable too 1.5 the price of an helicopter and more expensive than a AH6

The Hybrids must have infiltrated the world's car rental companies to leech money from XCOM

Of course X-Com is heavily subsidized, it's not like they actually get 4 Ospreys per million.

The Land Rover just isn't very well supported by the Council.

A car rental hybrid mission could be fun, with many car explosions like in a Michael Bay movie.
If you succeed the Land rover price and rental price could go down.

I have nothing against adding more hybrid missions. I feel that we don't have enough.

But it would have to give you something substantial, and I'm not sure what.

We can already have defecting Hybrids as chauffeurs... :)

Maybe aircars would be interesting, but it's kinda stretched, and their usefulness would also be disputable.

If the Air Car can be used in Undercover missions as a faster, land rover it can be useful.
And if it can have weapons to defend itself on the way I will love to have one
