This game itself can be very hard for a inexperienced player, no matter the difficulty. The fact that you must pay attention to your cities status (they aren’t being taken over) and your own can get annoying at times. Although this game has its glitches few as they are I would say that it is a very good game.
One good thing about it is that it has many different options for your agents the options of different weapons and armors (although you should use your own when you get into the alien world) makes this game very enjoyable.
as well as the options for your base set up and number of bases you have. The number of different aliens and the number that there can be on a mission can make this game difficult if you are new to it. If your agents are injured going on a mission will make it even more so.
The vehicles in the game are impressive and a large amount of them allows for different strategies to be used. Also it is very fun to attack after alien crafts and shoot them out of the sky, one strategy I used was to place 2 takes near every gateway, it did not kill the crafts, but it slowed them down enough for me to respond. Another thing that I loved about this game was the choices or weaponry and other modules that you could add to vehicles. Sometimes I felt overwhelmed by the different option in engines and missile jammers also mods for accuracy and storage space for aliens and equipment.
When it come to your agents picking the right ones matter if you keep getting new ones you will die, that caused a problem because most players are impatient. Never let your agents die if you must redo the mission 100 times but don’t let them die unless its right at the beginning, following that was hard when all my agents were injured. Although physic powers you can do some funny thing to some aliens, such as make them throw a boomerang at there feet with the timer set or make them throw there weapons away. That was always fun.
Over all this game was very well made even though its graphics could use a but of advancement. But I would recommend that they remake this game it was a big success in my eyes and would like to see more of its kind in the near future.
