UFO: Extraterrestrials Gold reviews and comments

Translated by
Microsoft from Russian
I'm not a freak fanatic. Just a long time ago I love the universe of games of the series "X-Com". And just recently, my audience and I decided to arrange a "Marathon" on all, in general, all the games that have ever been released under the banner "X-Com/UFO". Pros and cons, strengths and weaknesses, elements that bring joy or depression-all this and much more You will learn from my review (not review) Letspei, in which I did not hurry to express My feeling from the next part of this Virtual World. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwUZbN68VFQ

Anyone who knows the X-Com series (Hits from 1990) and is a Fan should take a closer look at this Game. It comes very close to the Classic, has a good Implementation in Graphics, Sound and Story. The Base must also be expanded in order to get a Chance to push back the Enemy. You can get a lot new about Research and Development (Weapons, Defenses, new Interceptors and vans and much more) There are various Enemies with special Wrecks. Leaders must be captured to interrogate them. Unfortunately, the Steam version is only in English. Unfortunately, the German Version is not available as a gold edition. The Gold Edition includes great new Gear. Recommendation!

So I can only say I'm a Fan of the strategic UFO games. And that's from the first Hour when the first X-Com came from The Microprose. Played through all these Parts of that time (X-Com Enemy Unknown, X-Com Terror from the Deep, X-Com Apocalypse, X-Com Interceptor and also the Shooter X-Com Enforcer). After that, it got pretty quiet around the Series. In Between came the UFO afterseries, which, while good as a Bridge, was not exactly outstanding due to the Real-time Tactics. Then came the Surprise Hit UFO Extraterestials IN 2007. At that time, maybe still available today, it was available as a DVD version in the Store. Modifications (small and large) did the Rest at that time (One still does today: Grayfien's UNI mod), from the Already very great game, which in terms of playing Style is very reminiscent of the original X-Com games of that time, to tease Out the last Bit. The Developers of this Game saw this Potential and, together with the first major Model developer BMan, made an improved Version of the Original. This has been available here for a long Time and, as mentioned in the Description, incorporates some nice new Toys. However, this New Edition has a small Flaw: It can only be purchased in English. For someone waiting for the second Part or looking to buy, the UFO Extraterestials Gold Edition, with its Extensions, is just right. Because it is a little Warm-up exercise on what AWAITS us in UFO 2 Extraterestials, which represents the Prehistory of UFO Extraterestials/UFO Extraterestials Gold. Hence my Recommendation: Buy and Play Through!
