blondandy:
You can't save in combat.

I agree with mattn.

IMO: if you know you can save and load all the time, it encourages cheatiness and takes some of the fear away.

Baron Crass:
I agree with that as well. I know too many people who had the patience to just go through move after move, turn after turn, every time they were in a combat situation in the Xcom games. It makes you use your beain a little more if there are consequences.

ancient_scars:
I understand the argument about not having a save function during combat, but (and it's a big but, no pun intended) if we play on a large map that takes an hour to complete it's a major turn-off if your computer decides to crash or there is a power black-out.

After all, if you don't want to save during combat just don't use the function.  :wink:

Baron Crass:
Hmmm...having been lucky enough so far to avoid that, I really hadn't considered it. Maybe some sort of 'limited' saves ability would be implementable or something? Or even just some kind of autosave feature, though that's probably a colossal pain in the ass to implement.
