Will there be actual nation-specific voiceactors? I mean, CIV5 had them.

We can only hope.

I imagine the Mechsuits are going to be like other classes, where they'll have advantages and disadvantages. So running an all-mech squad should be doable but probably sub-optimal, the same way running an all-heavy or all-assault squad would be.

In theory they could even be like Snipers, where running an all Mechsuit squad would actually be more difficult despite the class itself being incredibly powerful at high levels.

I can only hope that they would explain what the Ethereals were warning humans about. Maybe there would be a Mars mission? Giant ants? ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK ACK?

The article said mech users were a class, like the other four.

But there are actually 5 classes, since you could multiclass as a psionic (which still had it's own class skills and levels and everything!)

It would be awesome if it was one you could multiclass into in the same, or where you sacrifice your previous class to take the mech class (but keep using your same stats as the new base stat, maybe, so you could essentially "reset" your best soldiers to the "next level" or something)

[Mrhappyface]

Huh, they actually do have nation-specific voice actors! YAY!

You gotta copy the entire link, it doesn't right the rightmost bracket.

Apparently if you convert to mech, it'll lose all previous abilites.

[Mephansteras]

Oh! I like the stuff in that link!

There's an option to shut up Drs. Vahlen and Shen.

Hehe. Hell yeah.

There is a reason the url tags exist, dood.

UFOpeadia Article correct link

Apparently if you convert to mech, it'll lose all previous abilites.

Your troops might keep their will/hp/aim though, which would allow you to get some pretty buff soldiers if you were willing to sacrifice all their abilities.

I do wonder if a psi soldier will keep their psi abilities though (since it isn't really part of the class they are losing).

The mech suits are apparently cyborgs and you can splice your dudes with alium DNA. Good thing that you can shut up Shen, because he'd probably have a heart attack.

[Sirus]

Mech suits are cyborgs?! WHAT

I expected at least some sort of exosuit dealy. Firaxis, I am disappoint.

[Mrhappyface]

Weird, huh?

They become cyborgs, and those cyborgs get inside mech suits.

Mrhappyface: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

THAT'S NOT A MECH!

[Descan]

Not gonna lie, that's still pretty awesome.

Again... they become cyborgs and they get inside mech suits.
