What Alien Invasion needs in order to replace XCOM1 as the best game
Fistleaf:
Ok, fair enough.
I don't think I will be posting in this forum anymore. It is very tiring to have to self-censor myself for every single sentence so that I would not unknowingly anger the admin.
Destructavator:
Yeah, well, I'm sorry you came to this forum at a bad time and got caught up in this - This thread and a few others sure did become quite a mess...
*sigh*
Whether you stay or go is your choice - I personally don't have any hard feelings against you, Fistleaf, but if you decide to go, then farewell, and I hope you enjoy 2.3 when it finally comes out.
misiek:
For people who are disappointed that ufo: ai isn't and won't be enhanced version of x-com - maybe those projects will interest you:
http://nefurii.my-place.us/ - this is freeware remake of original ufo: enemy uknown using data from original game. For now author works on multiplayer (you can play as aliens or as x-com), but later he plans to implement single player (on both sides).
https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=User:Seb76 - this is extender which modifies original executable and adds some new features and fixes many bugs.
Maybe instead of trying to change ufo:ai into x-com remake you could somehow help those two projects.
And also - let authors of ufo:ai accomplish their own vision - they deserve it, because they spend so much time working on this project. And remember that it's their free time, which could be spent on watching tv, playing games, sports, family etc. Please appreciate it.
Also - this is open source project, so if you want to make an x-com remake you are free to gather your team and fork this project.

thanks, that was more or less exactly what i was trying to say.
some newcomer comes from a different context and says something, and there will be a long heated argument about it that will make no one happy, and will also kill the discussion.
as for me, i would like to discuss this topic in the more general sense (maybe not in this particular thread the way it has become, though).
like what are the attractive sides of an ufo game what's done nicely and what's annoying, and also maybe there would be something that could be applied to ufo-ai.
there seems to be very little or none of this kind of threads in offtopic section.
if offtopic is the right place for this, maybe moving such threads there, especially if started by newcomers, would be a nice solution in the future, and would stimulate more such discussion in offtopic?
