has this been topped yet in the ten year it's been out at cerebral tactical gameplay?

I hate the xcom action economy so jagged alliance was always better

Tried playing this recently. IMO turn-based gameplay doesn't work with this kind of cover-based positional tactics. Enemies don't shoot while you're moving because it's not their turn, so basically you can just walk around in plain sight right in front of a guy with a gun at no risk. Cover becomes meaningless because in my turn I just walk around the cover and shoot you. So it becomes a gay little game about counting squares instead of a game about tactical positioning.

it's shit because it replaces your attack

Also the probabilities are dumb, a trained shooter should have like 95% chance of hitting a guy right in front of him, instead they make it 70%. All the hit probabilities are pushed too far towards 50% when they should instead be pushed closer to 0% or 100%

Probabilities in xcom literally don't matter. Wether you hit or not is already decided before you shoot. It is lazy as fuck.

what you're saying only matters if you savescum. It's functionally identical to rolling after you click attack in normal play

Aliens Dark Descent, play it

Yes the RNG is seeded, as with most game that rely on a bunch of RNG rolls.
And like the other anon, it still only matters if you're savescumming.
You're still rolling for whatever percentage you're rolling. The result is just known ahead of time since it's seeded
