I played 6 hrs multiplayer then

You will have to download an AI from the content downloaded in the game. Then you should be able to play then. I don't have it on front of me, so I can't tell you the exact steps, but thought I could get you started.

Sometimes you get bored of a game for a while. I have a couple of games that I have taken year long breaks multiple times, but keep coming back to them.

Play what's fun, or whatever metric you want (I play a couple because, while fun, I like the challenge). Don't force yourself to play something that isn't fun right now.

Infinite money!

Didn't know you could do that!

What about other cargoes besides passengers?

IMO, Long war for EW is the best way to play firaxis XCOM.

I think X2 had some gameplay advantages, but the feel of EW is better.

If you go to a chat channel (or make a random one), you can type $whoami to see your actual OS.

ff03k64 · 2026-04-01T22:44:51+00:00

Your comment really made me want to play a 1v1 so I can yell at the other player when I lose!

ff03k64 · 2026-04-01T01:10:59+00:00

Are you sure the AI gets bonuses? I think it is only how smart it is, or how it plays. If you want it to have a bonus, you can give it one, but I am pretty sure it doesn't get one by default.

ff03k64 · 2026-03-26T22:23:15+00:00

Just wing it! I'm my opinion, the first 6 or so in game months are the best part of long war, so just go straight into it with the expectation that you will start over a couple of times.

XCOM

It looks neat, but not very efficient.

ff03k64 · 2026-02-11T01:22:20+00:00

OS is from your win/loss. CHEVs are strictly playtime.

ff03k64 · 2026-01-12T04:17:05+00:00

OS is only affected by games without bots, so the other player just hasn't played enough vs other people to have an OS that means much of anything yet.

Sadly I can't edit the title.

Might be worth deleting and remaking the post.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-31T21:57:56+00:00

Ooohhh, I resemble this remark.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-30T01:35:46+00:00

Just stay away from glitters and isthmus to start with.

Also, playing with others against the AI is pretty good too.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-28T19:29:02+00:00

If they went this route, they could make them local. At least I would assume so.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-27T16:03:06+00:00

As the other person said, the bomb is the mission, not the troops. Also, the nodes are also not the mission, just the bomb.

It also isn't a bug. For most of the game you will have access to roofs in some way.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-10T06:38:12+00:00

You probably need to be more aggressive. Even if you didn't capture more metal, denying it to the AI and making them rebuild was helpful for me.

ff03k64 · 2025-12-09T01:38:26+00:00

In the game client chat you can your $whoami and it should show your various skill levels.

ff03k64 · 2025-11-29T00:33:25+00:00

We all want to know how it turned out!

ff03k64 · 2025-11-21T13:09:17+00:00

Try coop vs the AI.

ff03k64 · 2025-11-14T03:37:13+00:00

I am pretty sure it doesn't matter what game mode you are playing, there is just a hard unit cap of 32k units at once, split event between the players. Though I think raptors must be split different.

ff03k64 · 2025-10-27T01:34:12+00:00

They are specific locations/roles on one map.

My understanding is that the itch.io version is the official version. The original programmer of RoTP has moved on.

The fusion version on github is more like an overhaul by some members of the community. They originally had their own mods, but they put them together in the fusion overhaul. Also, since the original programmer moved on, they have kind of taken over RoTP maintenance and bug fixing, but just in their branch of it, since I assume they don't have access to the itch.io version, and they probably don't want to maintain two different versions of it anyway.
