XCOM:EU+plus all DLC for less than 17 bucks is a steal.
don't buy it, it's a broken piece of shit with bugs around every corner
Have they fixed the bug where the game takes complete control away from the player and you can't save or do anything until you force close it?
[QUOTE=JerryK;41606114]don't buy it, it's a broken piece of shit with bugs around every corner[/QUOTE] Right, don't buy one of last year's best games because you might run into a bug or two.

[QUOTE=JerryK;41607441]haha, might run into a bug or two you WILL run into many bugs over and over again and some of them will even be game breaking [/QUOTE] What bugs? Other than the killcam glitching occasionally I haven't had any issues in 16.2 hours.

But it's still the best damn strategy series ever.
Isn't the game like 30gb incl. the patches or something?
13 GB total including both DLC packs.

game freezing up on "alien activity" and forcing you to CTRL ALT DEL to close because it won't let you save, which then forces you to re-do part of your mission game freezing up on the world map after a mission, which again forces you to close the game and re-do part of your mission characters shooting through walls random frame rate drops (although very rarely) graphical clipping issues game freezing up at the end of the muton/beserker's turn and causing you to close out and re-do part of your mission vehicle explosions not registering correctly, had a few times where an alien was using a car as cover and the car blew up but it didn't take any damage this is off the top of my head, all bugs that i encountered more than once also, not a bug, but it's complete bullshit how aliens get a free move once you unveil them, if i manage to move on them then i should get the tactical advantage and be able to engage them while they're out in the open

I experienced about half of those bugs my first time through but I still thought it was a great game.
well sure the gameplay is great, the progression feels good, and the art style is pretty awesome doesn't make it any less frustrating to play when you encounter all those bugs

I never said it was a bad game, it just caused me to start over several times.

You make it sound like the game killed your entire family.
