I don't know why everyone is getting picky over the healing animation

Well no one is really up in arms about it. It is just something to talk about.

I never said up in arms, I said picky.

Yeah but if I don't say that SOMEONE is going to burst in here and complain about people complaining and how everyone hates the game.

You see why I just usually let people come to the wrong conclusions? :P

I think that this is basically what they're trying to model in-game for the medical spray. I'm fine with the concept, I just think the animation could have been done a bit better.

As of right now I am thinking of a REALLY obnoxious way of warning people that just because I point something out, have a minor complaint, or am exploring a concept within the game... That I am not saying the game is terrible, not worthwhile, or bad in any sense.

What I am currently thinking of is a large banner that I will put before all my posts with a "!!!WARNING!!!" and all that.

Either that or I will do a full review of everything I know of Xcom so far. So if (or rather... When) anyone says "You hate the game" again I can just slap them and link them my review.

Oh man, I want to get this so bad but I'm glad I didn't buy this on impulse last week.  I'm now one paycheck away from being homeless!!   I might have to go back to pimping my ass on the streets for some X-Com.

I always really wanted to be good at the original x-com but I sucked so horribly at it - I didn't care though, it was fun.  This one seems more "friendly" at least.  Look forward to seeing everyones thoughts after release.

Stem-Gel first aid spray. Patent pending.

On another note.......longest 5 days of my life. I have a million things to do to free up the rest of October but I can't seem to focus on them. I've had 2 XCOM dreams which is odd because I'm not a teenager. Sid Meier owns my ass.

Hahahah, I've been thinking about posting that - except you American people get this stuff way early. I mean, can you even imagine what it's going to be like for the rest of the world? Knowing the Americans are just playing away gleefully and we still have TWO MOAR DAYS TO GO?


Also Postal83, that sounds like it really sucks man :( Best of luck :(

It sounds as if you are a bit jealous of our freedoms, I know for a fact that a troupe of eagles descended from the heavens and dropped the exact amount needed to purchase this game. I guess being the greatest nation to exist or will ever exist has a few benefits. You will have to be contect with your earl grey, limes, and bad dental health.

I'm quite sure bad teeth and horrible food are the main "english" stereotypes.
Brits are also known for being ponces or whatever it is spelled.

That's because you have a way of saying things that tells everyone that you're complaining, even when to you it doesn't mean you're complaining.

So if you say "medicine gun! medicine gun!" or "big dumb speis mareens!" well it sure looks like you're making fun of it.

See, this is a valid complaint about your posts, since it's a style issue instead of a substance issue. Like your complaints about how armor looks.

Trying to actually understand what you mean to say vs. the actual words you say is a LOT of work and gets people frustrated.
