I'm so hyped for this game. After nearly 20 years, I finally beat the original X-com last year. It was epic. Everything I've read about this game has only confirmed for me that this will be a worthy successor to the original. I've played lots of tribute games, remakes, fan makes, etc for UFO: Enemy Unknown. All of them were disappointing in some way or another. No destructible enviroments in this one, bad squad management in that one. So far, this one sounds perfect. Except for no base invasions. That's the only thing I wish they had kept that I know they removed.


What is the over under on base invasion DLC you think? 


I don't think its going to happen.  The way the base is laid out is like a 2D cutaway.  Antfarm, they call it.  It was designed to be a "safe haven" from the get go.  They'd have to completely alter the way bases are laid out in order for base invasions to be put in.

But honestly, it isn't a big deal.  Of the 100s of games of original X-com I played, I can remember a base invasion only 2 or 3 times.  It doesn't come up that often; and the game is usually lost long before a base invasion will take you out.


It could work wity the current base layout. And they could have it so you had to defend the entrance to the base, so you would have a big battle to defend the entrance against waves of enemies, thjey could sdo a lot of diffent things with the concept.
