I want it, but its cheaper to buy a physical base game and the dlc after than to buy the physical deluxe. Won't say the steel book isn't cool but I can't justify a spectacular mark up like that. Really the only thing I could get from the deluxe edition I can't get period is the ost.
After thinking it over I have cancelled my steam preorder and when I get my money back, I'll preorder it retail because 45 gigs is too much. I swear to fucking god if they make it a retail disc that's just a goddamn installer, I live near firaxis' office I can actually go complain to them directly.

Did you know that the average youtube commenter is a ADVENT puppet? Now you do.

[QUOTE=krakadict;49286921]"EXALT" bandana 3~ mins in [video=youtube;7-cSh3aPDPw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-cSh3aPDPw[/video][/QUOTE] Kinda late here but I hope they stuck with unlocking more cosmetic stuff through ranking soldiers up and stuff too like they mentioned way back. Don't get me wrong, there's a nice selection there, but headgear specifically seems slightly lacking. For example there's only one kind of combat helmet (albeit with three variations) and no beret to be seen.

[QUOTE=krakadict;49316189]did anyone catch that landed UFO in the new trailer? looks like[/QUOTE] I believe the strategy layer trailer already revealed that the UFOs still look like their EU/EW counterparts, but it's nice to see that we can still raid landed / crashed UFOs
[QUOTE=krakadict;49316189]did anyone catch that landed UFO in the new trailer? looks like[/QUOTE] Yep, noticed that back when the trailer came out. For some reason there would appear to be a mission where XCOM visits an Invasion era crashed UFO. (Which isn't the same as the ones we see ADVENT using now when it is sacking that town with MECs)

I wonder what the sectopod is going to be in this game. I think the only reason I survived against them was through disabling shots and smoke grenades combined with good positioning and the psychic shield
[IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/111996868/2015-2/Games/xcom/insert2.JPG[/IMG] Shit. FUCK. WHAT DO? I haven't seen one of these since I was ten or something. Will I need to do this with XCOM 2? I'm scared and confused by this archaic installation method
Someone send hlep to Scotty
scotty you have dug your own grave
I gave up Classic a month in, If Thin Men shoot at you, they hit you, if they hit you, they insta-kill you. Not my idea of fun.
Don't worry, you giving up is now lore-friendly.
Use full cover and smoke grenades and you have a 1 in 10 chance of the Thin Man not instantly 720 460 noscoping your xcom operative's mom, thereby instakilling him by proxy.
