Thank you all, made my year
« on: July 25, 2009, 12:43:50 am »
Hello all,
and as the title says, Thank you.
I'm an UFO: EU addict of old and was slowly slippong into a deep depression as that wonderful game became more and more dated and nearly unusable (at least for a tech-whore like myself),
that is until one very kindly person over at Taleworlds pointed me this way.

I just want to say that I think you guys have done a fantastic job on this, really captures the feel of the original and looks great to boot.
I look forward to following your progress from now on.
Again, thank you for reviving one of the greatest game ideas and keeping it close to the genesis, excellent job.

Glad to hear you like the game!

Be warned though that the devs are not trying to resurrect X-com. Your "keeping it close to the genesis" comment alarms me somewhat.

That aside, welcome to the community!

Don't forget to try other open source games like X-Force too (http://www.xforce-online.de/). It's German, but they're trying to translate it to English, and they are mostly there. There are a lot of newer UFO: EU type games here and there, it has captured the heart of so many. :)

Fear not, by 'close' I just mean it has the same appeal, I certainly don't think you should religeously stick too the original.
I was just pleased to see that some of the same 'feel' was present.

As for M&B, I'm a long time addict, 0.751 when I first got it. And Expanded Gameplay is easily one of the greatest mods, EGII was epic and EGIII looks to be heading the same way. I love the fact that characters can be so short lived.

I'm the same name over there as here.
