There's not enough hours in the week to keep up! Ayjona Well-Known Member Sep 8, 2009 3,295 21 38 Freelance journalist and writer, amateur musician Stockholm, Sweden #3 Ayjona, Nov 12, 2014 I was starting to think this day would not come. I've held off playing the original because I didn't like the idea of a reduced experience as compared to what is available on the PC. Well, no more holding! I wonder, though, if this is the complete experience, if Enemy Within completely supersedes Enemy Unknown on iOS (the PC expansions plugs into to the normal campaign, simply enrichening any regular playthrough with EXALT, Meld, mechs, etc). And if so, what 2K removed to squeeze it all into one package (since they could not fit Enemy Within into the original app as IAP).

Crabman Well-Known Member May 24, 2013 863 0 16 Berlin #5 Crabman, Nov 12, 2014 hell yes! Although i bought the X360 version just 3 weeks ago cause i thought EW will never make it to iOS.Dang. Anyway,i'll happily buy it a second time IF they didn't slaughter it too much to fit on tablets. Twenty One Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2012 288 0 0 Oil & Gas Engineer Oklahoma City, USA #6 Twenty One, Nov 12, 2014 Excellent surprise! W.T.F?!!! Anyway, I'll take it! Thanks, Doc! I'm assuming it will have multiplayer so lets hook it up! Anyone else interested feel free to add me on GameCenter: (Twenty-One) scape211 Well-Known Member Jun 20, 2012 318 3 18 Graphic Designer #7 scape211, Nov 12, 2014 Im starting to wonder if they found a way around this. I've played plenty of games that need to download additional content on the launch screen. This may be the case or they found a way to trim it down. In either case, I'm super pumped to get my new iphone 6 and play this game. Nothing holds up quite as well as this strategy game on my mobile device IMO. C.Hannum Well-Known Member Feb 13, 2011 2,512 0 36 New York State #8 C.Hannum, Nov 12, 2014 ^This Would have had no problem paying for the expansion as DLC but understand the business perspective of making it a new app for awareness sake BUT what exactly has been altered/removed/improved over the game we already purchased and played the bejesus out of. Edmilan Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2011 1,519 0 36 Philippines #9 Edmilan, Nov 12, 2014 Gotcha man! Time to beat each other's asses again.... now with my japanese speaking mech in red lol! Can't wait! heringer Well-Known Member Oct 2, 2011 807 0 0 #10 heringer, Nov 12, 2014 Is this a new campaign? What does it add to the original game? Edmilan Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2011 1,519 0 36 Philippines #11 Edmilan, Nov 12, 2014 Same campaign to save the world but made DRASTICALLY different with a ton of new stuff in the MECs and gene mods like super jump, new aliens, a new enemy faction (Exalt), and new maps like a farm with a barn grenadedodger Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2010 653 0 0 Manchester, UK #12 grenadedodger, Nov 12, 2014 Childish but I lolled! # Definitely getting this, will be up for some multiplayer too. Enemy Unknown is still probably the best game I've ever had on a phone. Edmilan Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2011 1,519 0 36 Philippines #13 Edmilan, Nov 12, 2014 Yep I'm giddy and excited like the child "within" lol. I'll try to familiarize myself with the new stuff first before getting into multiplayer and kick everyone's behinds...or well get mine kicked too djiwai Well-Known Member Dec 8, 2010 132 0 0 #14 djiwai, Nov 12, 2014 wow. I wished very hard for this. I'm sure the app size will be close to 2bg compressed, wich means it'll be HUGE when installed. original XCOM is 1.63bg, given that apparently the app size limit set by apple is 2bg, I wonder how well they dubbed down enemy within. I hope there's a decent number of new maps including emblematic ones such as the shipyard or the skyscraper's roof, and as it's enemy within I'm 100% sure there will be the headquarter defense map... I hope we can now costumize armors color... I hope it will not be ios8 only... mid83 Well-Known Member May 28, 2014 126 0 16 #15 mid83, Nov 12, 2014 So how is this version compared to the PC? I have Enemy Unknown on my Steam backlog (which at this point I imagine I wouldn't get to until 2015). Just curious how this version holds up vs the PC. For those that have played both, do you have a version that you prefer? ednan Well-Known Member May 27, 2012 664 0 0 Lawyer Somewhere http://www.twitter.com/ednanf #16 ednan, Nov 12, 2014 Last edited: Nov 12, 2014 PC will be always way better. The iOS version is cool for what it is, but the game looks and feels so MUCH better on Mac/PC. The Mac version is +20GB just for reference Edmilan Well-Known Member Dec 2, 2011 1,519 0 36 Philippines #17 Edmilan, Nov 12, 2014 I hope they optimized it for Metal Twenty One Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2012 288 0 0 Oil & Gas Engineer Oklahoma City, USA #18 Twenty One, Nov 12, 2014 Awesome pew pew laser shots fired.... Man, talk about Sci-Fi gaming overload this week! We get two fantastic strategy games in the forms of Battle World Kronos and XCOM........Then there is another newly released little title called Halo you may have heard about as well. Oh, and Assassins Creed is actually Sci-Fi also. "wake me when you need me...." In the meantime I've got work to do with Master Chief!
