huh what I was saying about AI and adaptation. Cannot see through the smoke and the guys coming into the face unspotted making overwatch useless.

You know this game reminds me of a game called Incubation, which came out some years after the original X:Com.

Huh. We can hire these guys from Anu... seems going to have smashing time.....

(pun intended)

I think there's a great game here but I'm actually struggling to get into it for some reason. I quite like the premise and I want to explore that and progress further, but I think it's just too grindy and boring doing so.

On cdkeys currently for £23, seems like a decent price for xcom fans.

Couldn't resist at £23. Should just have finished up the shadow of war dlcs in time ( finished the main story last week). Normally don't pre-order or by new.

Seen it streamed for a few hours quite a while ago, but didn't want to expose myself to too much, since I have been planning on getting it.

CDkeys have cancelled. Saying Epic games are not providing keys to 3rd party providers. They have provided a £4.99 discount voucher to say sorry though.

Its due at some stage on the MS gamepass, so I guess its a wait for that then

I read earlier that it goes on Epic Store tonight at 7 and MS gamepad very shortly after.

Panos · 3 Dec 2019 at 17:15

2h to go, before download

varkanoid · 3 Dec 2019 at 17:50

Aye annoying CD Keys have cancelled and refunded as Epic are selling exclusively through their store.

Unseul · 3 Dec 2019 at 18:11

Will keep an eye on game pass. I guess I can use the £4.99 on cdkeys to buy gamepass.

Looks interesting this one. I'll stick it on the list for when it comes to steam. List seems to he a growing one now

Panos · 3 Dec 2019 at 19:15

If someone has issue to download, make sure you download the game and not the 5 DLC content link

the latter isn't released yet....

Anyone know if it supports 21:9 Ultrawide displays ?

cheers mate !

So seeing as there's 3 months ultimate game pass for £1 currently on offer from microsfot, I've just signed up for that so as to not miss it. Hopefully won't be too long before phoenix point comes out. In the meantime, I'm sure I can find something else to do!

Radox-0 · 3 Dec 2019 at 21:21

Looks like they are waiting for MS to certify the game pass version, within the next week apparently: https://twitter.com/Phoenix_Point/status/1201827570582458368

Hopefully in time for the weekend!
