You guys should check out UFO: Alien Invasion. It's like TA Spring...for X-Com. Seriously! It's hard as all hell and not finished yet, but I still think it's quite cool...and free! Thats the best part!

I've seen that quite some time ago, though there wasn't anything finished then. Thanks anyway... 8)

The more I get into it, the cooler it is. I like the flame thrower the most, but the assult rifle is the most useful overall.

I'm 2 hours into the game and pretty much researched everything but some alien type because I'm too lazy to ram that baton up their ass. Maybe stun grens work so I don't have to get too close (and die).
I haven't tried all weapons yet but most of the burst or long range weapon are pretty useful. Uh yeah the plasma blaster rocks, it's basically a BFG9000!

Uh stupid question but are there any flying UFOs at all to shoot down? I'm playing with an older debug binary (available in the forums) because the exe supplied with RC6 just dies with some error message. Maybe I'm missing out on something... might just be that a lot of stuff isn't implemented yet.

It's twice as fun as UFO: Aftermath by the way even in the current state. :-)
Gotta love the looks of the Nano Armor. Looks like the Power Armor from Fallout 1.

I think UFO:AI (Alien Invasion), started out aimed at beeing comercial, from the first times i saw it, many time ago. It was quite surprising to see it available for "free" some time ago.
