Feb 6, 2016If you can try this game out before buying it. Very glad I was able to do so before wasting money on this. Maybe with the future DLC and GOTY edition I will change my mind, till then im sad i wasted 4 hours on it.

Feb 14, 201620 hours and I can confirm that this game is a pile of cheating junk, but it looks pretty and has nice character generation. So it depends what turns you on.

Mar 7, 2016Game is good, except of timers in almost every mission. TBS with timers, really, Firaxis? No way. The game is nearly unplayable because of this. No fun at all.

Feb 19, 2016This game has been improved from the first chapter but still lacks the re-playability and the freedom of the original xcom. I think it could be a good game for a single campaign but it will become boring very soon. Again very scripted (probability to hit sometimes aren't real). However I would buy this for 20 usd at most. Waiting for Xenonauts 2 ;)

Feb 13, 2016The game could be okay (say 5 or 6 out of 10) if it wasn't for the unacceptable performance and the many crashes and freezes, especially in the later game. Really annoying, the whole experience.

Mar 4, 2016one of the worst performing games i have ever owned my PC exceeds the requirements however i can't run this above medium to low settings,constant crashes, animations not playing properly,texture problems audio stuttering all kills what could have been a great game

Feb 9, 2016This game is pretty much the same game as XCOM1 with worse performance, a turn limit, bad balance, and fewer things to actually do such as build space ships. It feels like a bad mod of the original.

Apr 28, 2016This is a very boring and repetitive game. I see it more as a remake of the first game due to the lack of new features or gameplay elements. It is plagued with even more bugs than the first one and at the end of the day it's a just a mediocre strategy game...

Feb 12, 2016I love this game, but it has unresolved technical issues. The biggest problem for me was the random loss of ALL my saved games. Paid good money for a game I won't play until someone tells me this is fixed.
I really enjoyed the earlier games, and was disappointed this one is unplayable. -

Feb 19, 2016Currently broken. Do not buy.
Performance issues.
Gameplay bugs.
Crashes.
Is actually really light on content, certainly not worth full price.
Pre-order exclusive DLC currently not available.
The game is ok, it's not very good, but it's not horrible, but every single aspect outside of the core design is lacking horribly. -

Feb 17, 2017I spent more time trying to firgure out how to get my fps to run smoother than playing the game, i dont understand why this game runs so badly. The enemies in this game has all the luck and in my first mission 3 of my men died. Im just gonner wait until they patch it or somehthing.

Jan 29, 2017i spent more time reloading saves files than playing the game, unfair enemies that had all the odds in their favor, you dont need skill on this game its just a coin flip that punish you hard every time that you lost

Feb 5, 2016Was hoping for a good game, but the line of sight problems, chance on hit standing next to a unit, and oh my god the just retarded math involved in the game is just mind-boggling so bad...its like nobody ever played the game...I just can't recommend it. I can't believe someone called this fun and signed off on it.

Feb 7, 2016I thought that I hate FALLOUT 4 but I was wrong ..... this game **** Developers themselves played it?BUGS BUGS BUGS....... I have to give a bad rating.

Sep 13, 2017A more than a year after release, few DLCs is out. Game still crushes after tuttorial. No word from firaxis or 2K. Nice job! It seems like 2K policy - to ignore all, even critical bugs in their products.
-
Feb 6, 2016Not bad. i played XCOM1 near 500 hours so its a big chance in playstyle.
BUT i lreally like it so far.
The thing i like the most is the difficulty getting ripped on Normal on the first missions is just great :) Cant wait for the next try ( i always only play Ironman)
My only request to the DEVs is:
PLS DONT make it easier!!! -

Feb 14, 2016Stopped playing already at the tutorial. Computer turn time is so long as well as game stopping to "think" after each player action for so long, that I am wondering if I suppose to have all time in the world or what exactly should I be doing during the game inactivity? Stupid it is.

Apr 22, 2016Firaxis managed to improve upon the already great Enemy Unknown in almost every way, with the exception of multiplayer. Unfortunately, the shockingly bad performance prevents XCOM 2 from reaching the status of a true masterpiece.
-
Apr 10, 2016It is a tactical experience without peer, better even than its predecessors. It is draining and agonizing, but in a good way. The high difficulty may turn off some gamers, but it’s worth every second.
-
Apr 6, 2016XCOM 2 is a gem. There is more story in the game, and the ending does not feel as abrupt as it did in the first game.
