XCOM Diaries - Unexpected Outcomes
« on: February 05, 2014, 05:10:48 am »
This is a preview of the new upcoming XCOM Diaries (Episode 1).

Clip Description:
"I've had XCom for about 20 years now, and never had such an unexpected loss. With the exception of loosing an entire skyranger with 14 rookies and squaddies to a terror missison, this is the most terrible of them all."

Thats awesome.  The beauty of any AI issues is that we tend to interpret whats its doing as rationale.  In this case, the sectopod literally walks away from combat, as if it knows that the human scrubs sent against it were pathetic, not a threat, and certainly not worth the elerium to kill.  Walked itself back to the battleship.

Thanks for posting that, including the frustration.  Loved it.
