The most important aspect of surviving Ironman is undoubtedly pod management. Ideally, players should aim to pull one pod at a time. One of the best ways to lose a squad is to have the last member advance, reveal a pod, and have the enemies take a full round of actions before players can react. To avoid being at the mercy of enemies in XCOM 2, it is important to use blue movement when advancing, and dash only when it is certain that no pods will be inconveniently revea


Some armors, like the Spider armor, will give soldiers the ability to use a hook to reach high places near them. This action is free, which often means soldiers can use it to cover great distances.

Being mobile in XCOM 2 is crucial, and having a free move can quickly turn the tide of com

However, just like in Enemy Unknown, Sharpshooters in XCOM 2 are built with a singular purpose: kill everything on your screen. Snipers get this done with high-damage sniper rifles that are deadly accurate, and their inherent Squadsight ability means you can often do this without putting them in danger. Not only are they deadly, but you can put them in places where they're almost always unable to be kil


Why You Should Play It: Tom Clancy’s The Division has experienced some soaring highs and crushing lows since its launch, but either way it’s hard to discredit the hype surrounding the game. Exploring evacuated New York City and collecting loot was an instant appeal to the game, and the promise of a deep endgame experience kept us grinding away.

Its combat is as relentless and fast-paced as fans have come to expect, and this helps it stand out amongst a number of other shooting titles. Combat may become a little tedious after long stretches of play, the load times are a little lengthy, multiplayer is a smudge unbalanced, and SnapMap is a so-so addition, but the adrenaline-fueled gameplay and the ample replayability featured within the campaign makes this a standout entry in the FPS genre – let alone a worthwhile resurrection of DOO

Soldiers will often have downtime as they recover from wounds or mental trauma, or when they are sent on dispatch missions.
