You just prick people at random with a pin, the ones who bleed are human, the ones who transform into giant monsters and try to kill you are aliens.

Are you sure that's conclusive enough
Throw them into a well, the ones that drown are human, the ones that ooze back out and absorb you are aliens.
Put them on a scale against a duck, that's conclusive enough
I was thinking more of using the flamethrower generously.
The screaming ones are civilians.
honestly im not going to save any civs in ADVENT cities, let the treacherous bastards burn with the rest of the ayys
Haven't been keeping up with announcements very closely. Have we seen/heard any hints of SHIV's returning, or does it seem like they're being completely replaced by the flying things?
Faceless are probably taller because they are less dense on their original form than in their human form.
1st time facing EXALT and I'm already pissed because of being rushed and outnumbered at the same time.
EXALT have always seemed like pushovers compared to the aliens. They lose control of the situation fairly easily.
I say we ask them who the savior of mankind is. Those who don't say the God Emperor of Mankind shall be burned as heretics
I managed to kinetic strike a Cyberdisc, I wish there was a special animation for that like some of the other enemies.

Return to base and see a group of MECs just tossing a cyberdisk back and forth.
So I just did my first crashed terror ship assault. Fuck you hyperwave, you could have told me there was a sectopod.

Don't be afraid to use explosives against them
you don't really loose anything important by blowing them up
and kill heavies first since they like to employ the same strategy on you

So it turns out Assault Carriers are worth a whopping 99 elerium and 121 alloys...
:why:
Wonder what alien wrecks are going to be replaced with for Xcom 2 (if anything).
Anyone tried the mobile version of Xcom?
[QUOTE=Spectre1406;48743423]Anyone tried the mobile version of Xcom?[/QUOTE]
EU version played at like 20fps with grphics bugs on my Samsung Galaxy S Tab 10.1
OpenXCOM version works fine though.

I have the android version of XCOM EW on my OnePlus One.
It's almost identical to the PC version other than a few removed cinematics like the ones you see during alien autopsies.
I didn't test FPS, but the game chugs a little in the base view, although its still very playable. The missions themselves run fine.
Control is also surprisingly manageable despite no mouse.
For what is cost, which is a fraction of the price of the full PC game, it's perfectly fine.

Fulton all the enemy Sectoids and send them into your R&D.

Maybe that's how the cleanup crew extracts all those damn corpses and alloys.
I thought you only take so much you can load into the skyranger which is the excuse for why you only get few rifles worth of alien alloys when you down a bloody battleship.

I doubt it's the soldiers that do the item recovery.

[QUOTE]The world, has abandoned us. We fight alone against an incidious enemy, an enemy, who would destroy Humanity!
Who would have Humanity, Crumble from within.
But we are strong enough to fight the ADVENT. We are strong enough, to prevail.
You asked for freedom, we have given it. you asked for victory, it is within our grasp. Do not ask us to surrender to our enemies. we will not!
ADVENT fanatics would enslave our sons, and experiment on our daughters. I, Central Officer Bradford, am patriarch of XCOM, I dedicate myself, to protecting the lives, of our precious children.
Death. Despair. Desolation. Chaos. This is what ADVENT would bring to earth and it's citizens.
Our soldiers fight, for the glory of Humanity. Our workers labour for the glory of Humanity. Our children sing! for the glory of Humanity...
Fight! Fight, I say! Do not tell me that we cannot, we must! we must crush ADVENT!
We canot tolerate these traitors in our midst! The lies of traitors weaken Humanity!
Destroy the traitors! Destroy their lies! Destroy! ADVENT![/QUOTE]
what does everyone think of this? i might touch it up some more, maybe replace some more words.

That's sounding pretty Shadowrun.

And not trusting anyone, the liberal use of explosives, lots of destruction...
