UFO aftershock
So, after I finished aftermath, I thought I'd give aftershock a go..
it's set about 50 years after aftermath, and assumes that the humans lost the war.
It's got a lot more to it, in that you now have to build base structures, for research, training, and manufacture.
There's several factions you meet, and interact with (crudely anwyay)
The problem is, it's BRUTALLY difficult. It really is. I restarted about 5 times, and the problem is that my people just keep on dying, every damn time. I've yet to reach a point where I don't lose someone on every damn mission
(in this game, people will bleed to death if they go down. Problem is, there just isn't time to save them (unless you want to drop your weapon in the middle of a firefight to help, which usually just leads to more casualties)
I imagine that once I get the hang of it all, it will rock, but I've given up for the time being.
ho hum
