OMG I fell like I was run over by the hype train!
Even though they haven't realeased a ton of details, this game looks far better than I was expecting.
Full-out guerrilla warfare, stealth system, 3 Firaxis time units!, and MOD SUPPORT!!
Even if they screw it up, someone might fix it for them! Also, snake men and plasma swords seem to have made a reappearance. I'm honestly not too mad that XCOM is not the public figure that it was in Apocalypse but more of a desparate rebel group everybody else hates because that relations system was really botched and I always wanted to play "XCOM-Rogue", if I can safely call this that. I like the idea of the flying base because as long as it sticks to the outskirts of civilization and shifts around, it will be difficult to find, although I hope they improve management, even if they are unlikely to. I hope that name isn't official yet, but we'll have to wait and see.
Edit: Maybe the aliens don't want to shoot down a supply barge of brainwashed humans who keep them in control? Honestly, at this point I doubt the aliens are even that concerned about XCOM. The last game was the aliens trying to obtain humanity, and now that they have, I assume they intend to "harvest the fruits of their labor", so to speak. It's not like XCOM appears to have the resources to overthrow the aliens.
