Oh great, the guys who ruined the new Civilization by completely dumbing it down now get a go at another one of my favorites?
Quote from the game: "Oh noze! I wished I hadn't already used my rocket..."
Seriously? Giving squads an inventory which you could use to, I don't know, use for extra ammo and equipment was too complicated their new target audience? Guess I shouldn't be surprised, as "You can game with an x-box controller on your pc!" was also used as a new and excellent feature for a friggin' strategy game...
The sniper apparently also 'used up' his headshot ability... How the hell does that happen? And the assault guy lost his ability to charge, 'cuz really, running and then hitting something is obviously something you can only do once every half an hour too.
Movement: No matter how far you move, it'll use up the action. So when he's trying to find LOS between his robot and the enemy, he's got to guess where to move... If he moves his robot 1 meter, he can't move it another meter, even though the same action can normally make it go up to 20 meters. No indicator to show where he would have LOS and because of the incredibly good engine of the game and you can't do it by hand because of the way the engine cuts out parts of the map to allow visibility to where you're moving... Really well worked out!
Looking great, thanks Firaxis and 2k!
