[Sean Mirrsen]

Snek34 confirmed canon, or at least high-caliber.

I'm also super excited about the easily modded gameplay-affecting weather effects. Soon you too can fight all of your battles in hellish storms of various and unnatural origin!

Snowstorm maps, for that Canadian feel of THE WORLD IS FUCKING ENDING

I wonder if Sectopods will be used as like, police-enforcers.

For the differing force requirements of police work, in the future sectopods will come in all sizes.  There will be super sectopods (as seen in LW), normal sectopods, mini sectopods (still larger than a human), and special model "shoulder sectopods" to advise ADVENT personal.

Shouldtopods also come with a miniature laser cannon and state-of-the-alien targeting systems to fend off those pesky little Terran mosquitoes.

I WANT A TINY ITTY BITTY SECTOPOD TO LOVE D:
maybe make it plush?

They should totally make plush Sectopods. And plush Vipers. Especially plush Vipers. Even plush Chryssalids could be popular.

...I WANT PLUSH CHRYSALIDS MORE THAN I WANT A CHILD. D:

[IronyOwl]

Is there any portion of ADVENT we don't want to snuggle? No wonder they had such an easy time taking over.

[KingofstarrySkies]

The human ones. COWARDS.
And I suppose Mutons. They were always kinda...gross. Cyberdisks, though, they'd make great plushbutts.
Can we also get Plush XCOM?

[Andres]

Bradford would make a great bobblehead.

[Graknorke]

Many children's shows have an episode where the protagonists shrink down to enter somebody's body. Might even be a trope.

How has nobody mentioned Inner Space by name yet?

[Andres]

Inner Space isn't as grimdark as Animorphs and is thus less popular amongst children.

[Dorsidwarf]

Bradford would make a great bobblehead.

Bradford Central is, in fact, a shared hallucination of the entire XCOM project, caused by motion sickness and jet fumes in the operatives, and paint fumes from the constantly-fresh-painted Control Center in the case of the Base staff.

'Exposure to holograms results in the lirrle known "Central Officer Syndrome", where the afflicted hear voices from nowhere od a middle-aged male...'

Hm... should I dash into that dark area?  *pokes bobblehead*

[Egan_BW]

I thought it was the commander that was a hallucination?

[Urist Imiknorris]

The "Commander" persona is an alternate identity of Central Officer Bradford, created as a response to Central Officer Bradford being his actual name.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

this seemed very relevant.

LIES! DO NOT SPEAK ILL OF THE GREAT COMMANDLY ONE!

[Furtuka]

Apparently this will be a thing?
