Visuals are top form, love how Gears this looks.
Those XCOM mods make me burn for this:
You know, it just occurred to me that both of Firaxis' main game series have serious competition now. Civilization is being taken on by Aplitude/Sega's Humankind and XCOM is being taken on by Gears Tactics.
I hope both games are worthy competitors, not that Firaxis ever needs a kick in the butt.
Gratz!I guess I can reveal I'm working on this game :) all the comments here and elsewhere are making my day
I always wanted a "Halo Tactics" and a Gears of War RTS but it was the opposite.
You mean "Halo Laser Squad?" I've pitched something similar several times based on linear and ballistic sandbox weapons so that you use isometrics for height and splash damage calculations as well as line of sight. Still turn based, but with a metagame of saving power ups to use as amplifier/defenders per turn (bubble shield, turrets, active camo etc). Oh and a very rigid hurry up clock to make it feel more tense and pressured.
One of my first ever jobs as an adult was taking screenshots of Laser Squad on the Amstrad CPC464 (and actually typing and debugging entire user-submitted BASIC games). I loved that game.

I was actually kinda worried when we hadn't heard anything on it in a while but that was VERY encouraging!
Thanks <3Yeah congrats to Sean Noonan and 0xBADC0FFEE , the game looks fantastic.
Think its kinda cool really.I figured it'd be coming to console. Tactical strategy games can be done on controller, pretty easy.
I find it really weird that the Gears series has the super console-controller focused mainline games, and now the super PC-mouse focused tactics game (games?).
In a way, I suppose it is.
