A call for help:
The release of 2.3 is a milestone, but it is not the end of the road. The UFO:AI team has many plans for the game's development. New features appearing on the horizon for 2.4 include special mission objectives like rescuing downed pilots and expansions to key maps. UFO:AI needs contributors of all kinds. In particular, artists are needed to produce content for the expanded feature set, develop new battlegrounds and bring older content in line with the rendering engine's enhancements. If you'd like to help, join our forums and check out our contribution section.

Looks very awesome! Was a big fan of the X-Com stuff though it is very hard to play those games nowadays.
because of system compatibility
Speaking of compatiability, will this work on Win7 64 bit?
Yes
Steam can run X-COM (which is super cool)
****** YES been waiting for an update for ages
Woha awesome job there !
Oh wow. It's all so shiny now I don't want to be able to destroy it! No wait, I don't give a crap about the graphics. It really is a shame. The game is otherwise great, but I just can't really enjoy it for long with such static environments.
Awesome, downloading right now!
Looks like an awsome update, I was not a real big fan of the x-com series until I played your game. Glad to see you are still working on it.
played this before, but the campaign ended abruptly, so this update hopefully will fix that :)
thats weird, i was just playing this and now i've seen this update, woop time to fire it back up
wait wait wait......im new to this mod this mod looks a lot like ufo afterlight series not the new one
Yes!! I played the last version to 100% completion; very excited for an update! When will we be able to play missions on alien planets?
Wow even on the easiest difficulty I am getting pwned. >.< Any advice? I think it would be funner if we could have some kind of first person aspect for battles but you have already integrated everything. Nice work though!
