As a big fan of Within and Unknown on Xbox 360, I'm definitely bummed this is announced as a PC exclusive.
Oh, welp sucks for people who wanted to continue playing these on consoles.Further down in the article-
"And, later this week well go in-depth with Solomon and DeAngelis on the reasons behind the bold move to take XCOM from a multiplatform series to a PC exclusive..."
Doesn't sound like they're planning on a console release.
It's weird that this is a PC exclusive.
They made a version of the last one for mobile devices. You'd imagine they'd continue down that path.
More classes? Procedural generation and better mod support? A bold and simple "2" instead of a lame subtitle? Fantastic news.
I'm sad for console players, but this is the best use of a gif yet.
It looks so plastic-y that it looks like lego....
I thought the general consensus was that exclusives were good.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I totally don't see the XCOM aliens being ones that would set up a controlling government. They'd just want to fuck shit up.
I don't think it's weird. It's obviously not going to stay a PC exclusive. No one believes that. It'll be a PC exclusive when it is released in November. Probably indicative of Firaxis wanting to focus on a single platform first, and push the user generated content via Steam Workshop, etc. Once the game is completed and out there and getting polished, I'm sure they'll announce it for PS4/XB1, along with specific deals with the platform holders on how to handle the sharing of user generated content on their systems.
That screenshot looks fucking awful.
The super-clean art style makes more sense when you consider the game is mostly played from fifty feet overhead.It looks so plastic-y that it looks like lego....
Only when it's convenient for the person who says that.I thought the general consensus was that exclusives were good.

Important question: McCann?
It'll arrive on consoles in 2016.
Till then, I wait.

Not crazy at all. AFAIK, the Firaxis XCOM team has been vocal in their praise for Long War.

It still looks amazingly bland and awful regardless. Many with the same view look better. It looks like the Sims.The super-clean art style makes more sense when you consider the game is mostly played from fifty feet overhead.
Did you ever finish a campaign? The entire setup for EU was the mastermind aliens trying to find a species worthy of uplifting, they weren't trying to just slaughter people.
Granted, it's very likely with their defeat at the end of EU that whatever's in control in 2 might be a different faction.

That doesn't mean that it won't hit consoles later
