Hi,

Could you please add a bit more reasonable category that allows you to use manual saving and any difficulty you want?

Sure. Which difficulty? which rules?(only if using OpenXcom).

Well, I would like to run the game on original version, on lowest difficulty (to save the most time), probably using either wmware with DOS or Steam version. I'll have to see first how the cycles are set in Steam version running on Dosbox.

One is up for you. Looking forward to the playthrough!

Thanks. It might take a few months before I do any runs, though :(

No worries, man. It's all about having fun!

...when I read all that strange stuff in rules I never heard I thought, maybe its another game...but no (UFO - EnemyUnknown) . used to click on ufo.exe or ufo.bat and it run perfectly in good old times. The App was called "MS DoS" .No Windows coz it sucked - all the games wouldnt run ;) --..jesus Im old..¤sigh¤

Whatever ...this looks like what I heavily played too along time ago ;) of course not for youtube My aim was "Ending Mission on earliest possible in game day/hour" ( +actually being able to make it through that long End Mission as well with whats left.. and these Superhuman Sectiod Base vs 6 Soldiers without armor. fights can get really tricky and long :D)

Which comes "earliest" at Superhuman naturally (as you need some alien commanders from huge ships) but Tactics were tough like hell cause grinding forbid buying stuff for my soldiers and so on, nobody being allowed to die, so short on weapons you had to search for usable stuff around to finish a mission (Saveing and Loading Nightmare to get a perfect run OK - but perfect runs need sacrifices^^)

• Whatever, i had fun doing over and over again ..not sure what my final best in game time was <90 days or something. But at least 24 h playing in several sessions, nothing you want taken on video and even rewatch I guess - but I MIGHT still find some Pictureproof which i took for myself to remember my actual best attempt ;)

Question is - someone else joining in such runs at all maybe.? ...does it get a Cat?

• then I might be motivated to go for a search in the Abyss of defect old Hardware to find out exactly...or even go for a new ..mhmm. ^

PS: Glad to see the Speedrun WR is far beyond at 6-7months was a bit afraid for a moment^^ but I guess its trying to do least missions necessary ..totally different strategy - gonna take a closer look .. :)
