Discussion / Re: Yet another ''thank you'' thread.

To introduce myself there is neither interesting nor exciting.
I can’t contribute anything unfamiliar.
I know the original XCOM series - I've played it (Terror from the Deep) - I loved it.
I still play it – and sill love it.
Since then, I always hope for a worthy successor.
I had some fun with UFO: Aftershock and UFO: Extraterrestrial isn’t bad exept much too less maps in the game.
Currently my hopes are on Xenonauts. Looks promising.
I have discovered UFO Alien Invasion long time before on the Internet but the UI of the tactical screen never fits my bill.
Out of desperation I have now nevertheless downloaded UFO Alien Invasion now and I am ... - shocked and thrilled!
So many great, great ideas!
I am excited about what can be achieved when committed, capable people are jointly committed to a project!
Not so good, don’t like so much on the game:
UFO Alien Invasion isn't finished.
It’s already playable. So it can only get better in the future!
The UI in the tactical screen - I find too cumbersome.
One has to drive his eyes always on the screen from left to right from top to bottom, left corner - go right corner.
This also means that the mouse routes can also be very long which becomes with time a bit tiring.
I would prefer the UI concentrated at a single point / packed so that with one, or with a few glances, I can immediately analyze the situation with the displayed data.
The AI is not the best and you can’t destroy the environment.
For me the only serious flaws.
Still, I would imagine, well, I wish it to myselfs, that UFO Alien Invasion will become more interesting, challenging, fun and playable than most, perhaps than all other successor to the legendary XCOM.
Go for it!
Best wishes and thanks to all for your efforts.
