I don't think I tried. All I care about is being able to get that agile supersoldier on OUR side.
Also the whole "they want our genetics for boobs" thing would probably work if they weren't so heavy on cloning soldiers in tanks, since from a technical standpoint mammaries can make for quite the advantage in the childcare department, enabling a mother to naturally feed her child without puking half-digested food down their gobs. Again, however, they probably have artificial food nipples on the starship for when the younger clones work up a big grunty thirst, making tits and moms irrelevant to their civilization, as bonkers as that may sound.
That took longer than I expected, honestly.

You'll have to wait until the actual remake of Terror From the Deep for your true calling.

whenever any form of lizard people come in whether it be in TES or XCOM or whatever, [I]somebody [/I]throws a fit that the women have tits like they have some kind of proper anatomy fetish
like you're shooting fireballs and lasers and shit calm down
Things I'm hoping for but am realistically understanding it probably won't happen:
- Squadmates have actual character development/personalities.
- Recruit Alien, Mercenary or other squadmates (since this is a more "underground" XCOM)

I wonder if EXALT will show up at all in XCOM 2? Raiding their old caches and recruiting former agents and informants could be cool.

Don't see this happening apart from perhaps unique squaddies like the french chick and chinese guy. How are you going to have character development on a randomized character?

I'd love it, especially since their funding seemed to come more from corporations and other civilians rather than governments thus making them more likely to survive the occupation than XCOM. I'd really like to team up with them, since they obviously didn't want the aliens to win either.

After everyone loving the Viper you know Firaxis is gonna make it recruitable in some way or another.

The problem I'd have with the former is that we'd have several characters with the exact same development (and it'd be annoying to have the character killed near the end of a story) and a lot of the characters might have great stats but total-dick personalities that you just can't like.
Also, They're hardened soldiers. They don't just 'have personalities'. That's what military training is for.
Maybe characteristics is a better word? Smug, surly, arrogant and cocky. Stuff like that.

Most Turn based strategy games do personalities pretty well. Silent Storm series, Jagged Alliance etc etc. "He is flat like beaver who could not judge wind"
Plus I imagine these guys more as guerillas and less as mindless supersoldiers.

Wait, so are we gonna be attacked by a Thin-man Duke Nukem?
We're likely still going to see Thin Men, just not in the way we currently know them.

XCOM gonna be XCOM. Had 3 80% shots fail in a row last i played, because RNG hates people
I'm really excited for the character creation. Hopefully they'll have advanced options for those people who really like customization.

Well they've already confirmed the increased armor customization (head, torso, right arm, left arm and legs) plus that you can switch nationality on your dudes etc.

The Vikings are our only hope.
So everyone's getting hype about the vipers long and prehensile tongue, so I thought i'd remind you all.
In the PC gamer article they say that tongue is more than just for show, it works like a frogs tongue that will drag your squaddies out of cover.
You thought thin men were bad before? Now they can legitimately get rid of all your cover... and then do a backflip headshot 10 damage crit on the only medic.

At least I can pray to that Denmark wont be overlooked this time.

I kinda wanna see someone make a medieval/fantasy/dungeon crawling mod out of this next Xcom.
Complete with needlessly sexy snake women.
