Research laser weapons before better armor, as you need to be able to take out the stronger aliens as they show up. Better armor will not help you against Chysalids if you are still using bullet guns when they show up.

What up TC yeah the switch is a good system for strategy games with Civ 6, Into the Breach, Valkyria Chronicles, Banner Saga, Disgaea, and Mario XCOM(Kingdom Battle) off the top of my head. Portable systems and turn based strategy games are a great combo, especially when you can also put the games on your TV and play Civ with joycons while lounging on the couch.

And you can also play Fire Emblem Warriors since you'll know the characters.

Civ6 runs better on my PC than civ5 does

Yeah it's better optimized and less CPU/GPU intensive than 5. That's why I thought it would be released on current gen systems last year. That fact that it hasn't is very telling and why I figure it'll be a launch title for the next gen systems.

And please tell us more about how much CPU power is needed to process all the other civ's moves during the end turns. I'm not a programmer, but since you are please educate us on how this all works.

Really? My PC is around 4-5 years old and it'll run Civ 6 just fine. Even if it was just the lowest settings I'm sure a PS4 and XB1 would be able to handle it.

That PC has a better CPU than the current gen systems, that's their weakest point. And if they had to turn everything to lowest settings just to get the game to run on current gen systems and it still chugged during the late game end turns they would get a lot of **** from everybody.

Better for 2K to wait until the next gen and release it again at full price again to make even more money off the game, which by 2020-2021 will be complete on PC and only really selling copies during sales.

The Switch version is a port of the IOS version, which would seem kinda lame if it was released on current gen consoles.

The PS4 and Xbone don't have enough CPU power to run the PC version, so 2K is waiting for the next gen to release Civ 6 on consoles. I expect it to be a launch title for them when they are released.

As for me Civ 6 and Katamari Remastered are the system sellers I have been waiting for and I will buy a Switch to play them.

I didn't play the game again with wotc but in the base game flashbangs are hella useful from early to mid-game. Flash a Sectoid to drop their mind control or flash a Muton to drop their accuracy when they have a good angle on your soldiers.

Armor mod and a nade on your aggressive melee/shotgun soldiers and a scope on your snipers.

And always prioritize and kill the biggest threats first. One dead Berserker is better than a wounded Muton and a wounded Sectoid.

Also get a bike for cardio, **** running as that is rough on your knees, hips, and ankles.

That country is not unified in any way, shape, or form as there's lots of different people and history on that subcontinent. It's nothing like North America where there's only a few dominant languages and cultures.

Yeah there are still some other languages and cultures around here but English and Spanish will get you anywhere in NA, but it's not like that India. And English is the unifying language around much of India just like much of NA for the same reasons, the Britishers with their guns.

But they are still a very different place and the eating cows thing is for the Hindus only iirc so the Muslims and Christians there wont give a **** about that. Their Muslim minority is about the population of the USA iirc.

It's not really that they don't have anybody, it's that they have a very poor chance of winning the presidency. This is the same party that couldn't beat W back in 2004, and are the reason that Trump is the president right now.

The last time a sitting president didn't get reelected was 1992, and that was because Ross Perot split up the repubs, plus we'll most likely be in a huge war with Iran in 2020 so Trump's chances look really good right now. Of course many things will happen between now and the election so all we can do right now is speculate.
