No, no death. there's alot of upset x-com fans out there, in fact they are going ape shit over the deal. They have polls asking the Devs to put their brains back in and patch it to include perma death and the game isent even out yet, LOL.

I can understand that. In XCom, you had to be careful not to lose your best soldiers since they kicked alien ass (experience). This alone would make for some very intensive fights where your guys were surrounded.

If your soldiers cant die, then there is no fun in the game.

Hopefully, you'll be able to mod the game itself, or beable to click some "Ironman" mode, inwhich your soldiers can die. In my eyes, immortal soldiers are a game killer, and reason enought not to buy the game. :/

I remember playing fallout tactics, and getting so mad cause of one of my critters that died. I'd just quit, and leave the game alone for a day, then try the next day from scratch. It feelt so good when you managed to complete mission in which you had tried atleast 2-3 times, without any losses. Smile.


Then again regarding this game, I'll have to re-evalue the "immortal soldier" part, after I've seen the "medical healing" aspect of the game, seeing as soldiers are 'sposed to lose alot of their skills when they're hospitalised. Maybe they've got a card up their sleve, I really do hope so...

I don't see this death thing as a gameplay breaker.
I mean, if your soldiers get incapacitated, they need to stay in the hospital for an ammount of time equal to the wounds he has. So, less health, more time in the hospital for him.
Besides, if a soldier you didn't want to die actually did die in XCOM, you'll restart the mission, cause of no reload game while in tactical.
With this feature, and with the reaload in tactical(i think), at least you'll not be so f2/f3 prone everytime your soldiers get shot bad.

I for one won't use the load game while in combat, so this incapacitate feature is welcomed.

Can't buy it anywhere but Moscow and the post is terrible there.
It's just not fair where the Russians get to play it before us, there should be a law against it.

Tried it for 1 hour or so.

I realize it's a very short period and so i'd try again tomorrow.

To make it very brief i'm not impressed and if it were anything except ufo it would have been uninstalled by now.

Im waiting for those positive reviews of the game..

suprise me.

otherwise i might come back a few posts later just to tell you:
"i told you"

About the rumor i read here that soldiers can't die. Thats really an interesting improvement in the game. Sure solves the save/load/save/load issue. Rolling Eyes

Oh wait.. there was no issue there. whatever, its a feature so be happy for it instead of complaining.
