From the single trailer shown, the game appears to be putting an emphasis on player choice, but the SLG Game reviews's development is still quite underway, and Triangle Strategy is currently a working title. As the game is currently slated for a 2022 release, they're plenty of time to speculate on what the game can have in store for play

A great, well, support class. Smoke grenades and extra medkit uses help the Support Class keep the other soldiers in their squad alive for longer. They get a lot of great utility to buff allies and debuff enem

The XCom games are famous for their engaging squad-based combat. The games have always featured a large collection of alien types – each with an ability that players must keep in mind if they want all of their soldiers to make it back to base in one piece. Some of these aliens can fly, some are advanced robotic killing machines, some are basically living tanks, but the deadliest of them have psionic abilities that are frustrating at best – and absolutely devastating at worst. These are the most difficult alien types a player can expect when playing the X-Com titles; minus the unique types like the Uber Ethereal or Warlo

XCOM 2's Ironman runs can provide a very rewarding experience despite these drawbacks. Having permanent consequences gives more weight to each decision and rewards good strategy. Properly managing the XCOM headquarters, identifying what missions are most valuable, and learning to move carefully while dealing with mission timers are all crucial skills players will need to master to succeed in Ironman runs, especially at higher difficult

These robotic horrors can mean death to entire squad if the player is not careful. Cyberdiscs have very strong armor and a lot of hit points; this is made worse for the player by the presence of drones that can repair Cyberdiscs. Their main cannon will usually kill a soldier without heavy armor. Cyberdiscs can also lob grenades across the battlefield; which means seeking cover isn’t as effective against them. Lastly, don’t get too close or a Cyberdisc will use their "Death Blossom" attack that does severe damage in a 360°

Moreover, its inclusion of wacky B-Film cutscenes makes Red Alert all the more entertaining experience. As such, gamers looking for an alternate setting for an RTS that's still relatable, Red Alert might do the job for t

Each of these factions has its own theme, storyline, and motivations. They also have unique buildings and gameplay options . In fact, one might say all of them have a proper "claim" to the planet. However, it's up to players to help them secure

The Heavy Floater does not have the toughest armor, or a particularly high damage potential, but its special abilities more than make up for those deficiencies. The most exasperating ability is that Floaters can launch themselves to any location in the battle zone. This is annoying when a Heavy Floater is near death then launches out of range. They can also bombard an area, which usually negates the cover the player’s soldiers are hiding behind. Lastly, when they are airborne, a Heavy Floater can evade incoming fire; which lowers the accuracy of the player’s soldiers by

We've already seen from playable Triangle Strategy demo that the choices that player is forced to make aren't always going to be black and white, and that there will be pros and cons to the choices they make. Maintaining this approach over the course of the game will be key, as it can lead to a much more hollow experience with telegraphed outcomes that are much easier for the player to anticip

These are the leaders of the Sectoid soldiers, and besides having higher base stats they also have devastating psionic attacks. Sectoid Commanders have four psionic abilities: Mind Control, Mindfray, Greater Mind Merge, and Psi Panic. The Mind control is especially nefarious, as it gives the Sectoid Commander complete control of a soldier in the player’s squad for three turns. Most mind controlled soldiers do not survive the mission. The Mind Merge gives all Sectoids in battle decent bonuses to Will (morale), health, and critical hit chance. The worst aspect is it is very difficult to distinguish commanders from normal Secto

Players want to avoid trading shots with enemies as much as possible. Any shot the enemy takes could be the one in a hundred that critically hits and downs a valuable soldier. When leveling up soldiers, picking options that increase lethality will often yield better results than defensive opti

Engineers and Scientists are the most valuable rewards players can get in XCOM 2 and should be prioritized over any other. After unlocking the Black Market, it is important to check every month whether any can be purchased. These purchases cost Intel, which makes it a valuable resource in XCOM 2 . Scientists dramatically increase the speed of any research. Engineers are key to upgrade and maintain almost everything at HQ. Players should also aim to have at least one Engineer clearing debris for more rooms at all ti
