X-Com: Enemy Unknown
snalin:
Can you sell unused alien artifacts like you could in the old games? Then more aliens on maps could be a blessing in disguise. Otherwise, that looks brutal.
Have an assignment due by Friday, but I'm still going to play a ton of this.
ackblom12:
Yeah, you can sell artifacts and broken UFO parts are basically vendor trash. I'm not sure if it will be as much of a blessing as a problem seeing as how incredibly lethal combat is though.
I tried Classic mode a couple of times, the 2nd attempt ended up with me losing 3 squad members in one turn due to a panicy recruit who shot another squad member in the face after watching 2 more mates in full cover get their heads blown off.
Edit: Also, unless I've just been missing it, there's no way to sell off your old guns and armor now. The only way I can tell to get rid of them is by waiting for contracts from countries asking for equipment.
Also, Chrysallids still hold the coveted title of "Die in a Goddamn Fire".

Chrysallids have been known to give me nightmares...
That is one scary concept for an enemy.

The only thing that makes them any less scary is the same thing that made them less scary in the original... Plasma. And even that is just hoping you don't have a small bit of bad luck.
Also, here is the Rock, Paper, Shotgun Review.
The only things I really disagree with him on are concerning the item limit and lack of free aim. On one hand, I'd love Free Aim for taking out walls with my Heavies to free up line of sight for my other troops, on the other hand I much prefer unlimited ammo and not having to deal with the hassle of clips. I just can't help but Free Aim and more items would completely unbalance the game. The item limit also makes those max level Support units insanely precious.
