Yep, satellites, workshops and engineers are the most important. Labs and scientists - the least.

Apparantly the patch helps out with this soft lock. Not that I've noticed it myself.
| Quote: | So satellites are the most important thing to start with right ?
Because I ran out of money almost every time whereas I finished all the research available so I wasn't able to build anything and lost 3 country very fast. |
Yes satellites calms a whole region (not just the country that gets it) down on its own I believe, plus brings in extra funds to allow you to build more stuff later on. I generally start after the intro mission by building a satellite and start planning a satellite link (which needs a workshop and a power generator). To allow for a workshop asap make sure to pick the +4 engineers option on your first choice out of 3 abduction missions.
Also make sure to make use of the grey market. Especially damaged UFO components are good early game income (plus I sell quite a few sectoid bodies).

I just beat the game. The ending was pretty lame, but it seems likely that there will be a DLC or sequel that continues the story.

@ Sin317 this is the "every turn hang issue" I talked about 
If you reload this tactical session you will encounter this bug certainly each time, reloading @ the base will reroll enemies and location and it will be OK.
Edit : Ok I saw you sort it out anotherway, what version are you playing ?
Edit2 : I told ya !  |
yeah it keeps locking now every turn, so no choice then to restart the whole thing from base. Sucks, i really kicked the aliens ass in that mission hehe. |
By locking you are referring to a situation when a ground grid disappears and you can't move the soldiers ? This happened to me twice and both times I was able to fix it by 'TAB'-ing to another soldier. |

I will just quote Atyesz here
| Atyesz wrote: | 1. Build sattelite uplinks (and all the other buildings of the same type, ex.: power gens, workshops) in a square formation. This way you get 2 bonuses for each of them.
2. Build sats in bulk
3. Engineers are much more precious than scientists. Research can go a bit slow, but its not a big deal, you need engineers for power, sats, sat uplinks, and to build anything that you researched
4. Launch sats just before the end of the month. Launching it reduced that zones panic by 2. If it was on the highest panic, you have 50% chance to reduce it by 1 more. This way you can reduce the numbers of countries leaving. On classic its rly hard to save them all, but its possible.
5. Dont start in SA, with only 2 sats you can get coverage and the bonus. Its not the best bonus, but with all the autopsies and interrogations becoming instant, you can save more than a month of research.
6. If you cover a whole part of the world (full NA or EU for example) they wont get their panic increased if you choose another location to do the abduction mission in. So its actually easier to lose some of the smaller countries in the first months and cover whole zones, than to spread out and have panic increase worldwide every time you do a mission where you have to choose a location. |

I got a feeling that when you start in one game session a new play with tutorial and then start a new game you have somehow lower difficulty. I have started a game with tutorial in classic then restarted to choose my own base and the tacitcal part was a walk in a park I lost one soldier in 30 missions. Now I created new game (after restarting the game) in classic and I'm getting my ass served.
Anyone noticed something similiar?

Glad I bought this. Had a couple of bugs but nothing major. Started off on normal and was doing great, then I started facing Muton Berserkers and Sectoid commanders and got my arse handed to me. If one more country leaves the project it's game over for me, though I didn't realise how important satellites were until a few missions ago. Really enjoying it though, probably as much as I did the original game though I'd like the missing stuff to be added such as base assaults and multiple bases.

Try to put one of them in the Psi-Armor and see if that helps.

Thanks, putting them in psi armor worked. I didn't even think of this and was just doing mission after mission trying to level them up even more.

It's so satisfying when you successfully mind control a Muton then use him as a suicide bomber by sending him into a group of enemies and dropping a grenade.

My install is hanging on xcomgame\movies\1080_CIN_TP10_deviceretreived_loc.bik when installing off the first dvd. Any ideas what could be causing this? I deleted the directory and reinstalled 5 times, same result. It just hangs indefinitely!
