      I wish we got more DLC (and something deeper as well). I didn't get the last one because it was just a few levels and nothing special.....

        Well, we are supposed to get something "really awesome" according to Jake Solomon

          I know...Hoping it's pretty cool! Just want more of a reason to play through the game!

          I do trust in Jake Solomon though, in all his videos he seems 100% legit. Cool guy!

              Love how having 1 sniper with Squadsight, Double Tap, Plasma Sniper, and Archangel armor can decimate an entire team.

              Is Ghost armor worth equipping my soldiers with late game? I've been sticking with Titan armor because of the extra health. Not sure if its worth the health decrease with the addition of stealth. My assault guys are usually the first to run in rooms and they already have Lightning Reflexes which makes them avoid the first Overwatch shots.

                Uggh, I need to get this game again, especially if they are making more DLC for it.
                I'm still pissed mine broke to start with. It was/is such a good game.

                    It's safe to say...this is one of the all-time great games for this console generation.

                        Ghost armor is perfect for assault guys or anyone on your team dedicated to getting behind enemy lines. I use it on my main assault guy when I wanna do serious damage with a shotgun from in close or when I need to capture a specimen with the arc thrower.

                          Any news on the release date for the iOS version? I've got too many games to play on PS3 right now, but I'd love to go through this again on the iPad. Much more convenient.

                            Repurchased this yesterday. Only sold it the first time because I couldn't figure it out. I didn't understand the boxes/starting construction/placing satellites/excavations? When was I supposed to start the 2nd level. When/what to spend money and how much? Just couldn't figure it out and got frustrated. I didn't play the first one so this was a new exp for me.

                            Gonna give it a 2nd chance

                              I'm kinda in the same boat as you are man. I finally got some time to play this game today and I'm having a blast, even though I'm still in the tutorial ><
                              Great game so far =)

                                Anyone who enjoys these style games and are might be open to something a bit more involved needs to check out a game called Jagged Alliance 2 (and the 1.13 mod)

                                Best tactical squad based game around.
