Good for you...glad you tried it, now select new game and save in slots 8-9 (so as not to disturb your present game much) and try it with untrained unarmored underequipped soldiers, oh and on a high difficulty level like 4 Genius or 5 Superhuman (5 is very tough,if you want to see how tough advance to the first terror mission on both levels (start new game click 1 day will take a few seconds dont bother equiping buying researching etc you just wanna see something) ..dont even play it...just go to the site and end turn ...on level 4 you will hear the aliens shoot and kill a couple civilians mebbe toss a gernade even hear some missed shots, on level 5 you will hear a succesion of 4-6 shots immediatly followed by a scream of a civilian dying...they dont miss often, honestly just try that its actually quite funny to hear its like OMG!!!.... its a very good way to quickly gauge the difference between the 2 settings )
Ok you say mebbe cause of positioning then save before you land and land a couple times at each site to see....it doesnt change on level 5 they kill 4-6 immediatly with one shot each..and not bang auuugh wai waitwait..no its bang-aaaaa-bang-aaaa-bangf-aaa 6 dead with 2-3 seconds.
Yesterday I played it on an Island ( lukky landing there i like the Island ones) there was 7 civvies, I let Aliens take the first turn as it increases the chances of them usuing up thier tv's and not having opportunity fire on me when exiting my craft..result 6 of the 7 civvies dead.
I played it out losing a couple guys to a gernade but the most insulting part of the whole mission was...i couldnt find the last alien on an island....sigh i searched everywhere except 1 place....in one of the tunnels beneath the island, it was blocked by the last civilian...yup he was hiding the last alien...i tried knocking him out with the tazer but it killed him sigh....and there was the Deep One hiding behind him
