LOL a video showing the early game near squad wipe would be excellent. "Private Johnson, you're the only survivor. congratulations, Captain."
early game MG spam to compensate for lack of laser weapons
And trying to find anyone strong enough to carry said MGs.
Early game is the EDF experience and late game is the 40k experience?
@@andrewa700 Lets just say expect casualties.
@@andrewa700 generally speaking expect your guys to get oneshot 70% of the time until you unlock armor made of alien material - and even then your guys can still get oneshot lol
Your foe is well equipped, well-trained, battle-hardened. He believes his gods are on his side. Let him believe what he will. We have the tanks on ours.
Nice
Who’s to say our troops don’t also serve as crusaders?
@@adorabomber123 For political reasons. Gotta get that extra funding. You think your laser bullets are FREE operator?
@@KoishiVibin Please, we have holy warriors of all names! Inquisitors, guardians, conquistadors, there’s no reason not to have a little bit more troop morale. Every bit of sanity counts!
We got the real God. Bet these losers aren't even made in theirs' image
By the God-Emperor, I absolutely love killing Xenos
Warhammer 1k
I do too.
@@offdeck8588 2K
It is actually 3k.
@@plutarchvonpluto6439 Xenonauts lore?
I think what I love the most about Xenonauts is that the vehicles are actually useful. In most other X-Com like games, the vehicles are just worse, un-upgradeable soldiers with slightly more armor. Here, though, they are forces of nature that can take tons of damage and dish it right back out, just as a vehicle should.
Except for the hunter car
@@robob4465 Yes and no. The thing has barely any armor, yes, but a laser cannon is a laser cannon, and it's two less soldiers getting shot at.
Hey! In original XCOM 1, the heavy weapons platform served real nice as alternative to feeding the warmachine 5-10 recruits... For approximately 8 missions.
@@ryguy9876 100.000$ laser cannon made of cardboard,taking up space for a rocketeer + shieldbearer which are more cost effective and arguably more practical due to their indoor use
@@robob4465 I didn't consider that. I mostly use the scout car for demolition work; it gets the xenos running scared and gets rid of their cover. I already have two shield bearers but maybe that will help me out. Thank you!
The best alien invasion game. Instead of cowering in fear or getting wiped out the military beats the shit out of the aliens.
I take it you've never watched DDRJake's "ballistics only" challenges.
You do destroy the aliens, or you get destroyed by them with your squad wiped out.
because it's not a cringe game
Xenonauts is one of these games where you go all the way from imperial guard cloging enemy with bodies to ultramarines in power armor and planes shooting black holes at UFO.
And yet at any point, reapers are a mence.
this is essentially all X-COM esque games in a nutshell. throw bodies at the enemy in the early game and then in the late game you're throwing the aliens bodies onto a giant pile in your store room because you have so many.
@@jacobely6826 start using alien bodies to fuel the fires of our industries!!!
I'm glad they changed Reapers for Xenonauts 2, now it's not a guaranteed kill anymore. Always bothered me, no matter how much armour and health you have, you're always guaranteed to die if it touches you.
@@kotzpennerLegacy of the Chryssalid. The OG ones still haunt many a veteran's nightmares.
1. throw bags of meat at problem
2. get new explody toys
3. unload the toys into the bad meatbags
Whoever survives, wins.
Where in the hell has this game been in my all my life.
sequel is in closed beta, can't wait!~
It was always there, XCOM: UFO DEFENSE
@@aleksanderlenartowicz5659 yeah, though xenonauts is far easier to get into than the OG XCOM, but i'd definitly recommend the open source XCOM that overhauls a LOT of the OG game UI included.
@@PerfectDeath4 say whaaaat? Never heard of it. How to find it?
making a sequel.
"Ha! These humans can't intercept all these at once!"
"Yea! We'll show those stupid... wait, what is that sound...?"
_[danger zone intensifies as marauders appear on the horizon]_
the aliens must've thought they were facing XCOM
@@AtrociousAK47 they didn't know xenonauts is the superior game
[Danger Zone changes to Symphony No 4 as a converted B52 appears on radar]
[Missiles begin pouring out of the bays, screen fills with missile contacts]
@@titanfallgamerwithnotitanf8187 Xenonauts is just the original Xcom games with better graphics and way better quality of life
@@matthewjones39 I was talking about the new x-com games
Then you get access to Power Armours. Two kinds. One is near unkillable walking tank who can wield LMG like pistols and can take as much damage as the actual vehicle tank and the other is flying, only slightly less armoured and with 270 deegre vision suit straight from Legacy of Aldenata. Add to this MAG weapons which are entirely new technology crafted by humans with limit set by atmosphere itself and those xenos never stood a chance :D
A Posleen war reference in 2022. Nice
Man, fuck those lizard dog xenos, wipe them out, all of them
Eh! Another Legacy of Aldenata fan!
-crafts a ton of flying suits
-plays fortunate son
-"why am i hearing music?"
Its actually a 360 degree vision... im not sure how that would look but it certainly is op asf
Heheh. I remember keeping the skies clean with MiGs throughout most of the campaign, until I was able to fully replace them with Marauders. Didn’t even bother with building Corsairs.
Truthfully, apparently most don't. Just not worth the resources for the payoff.
@@tyrongkojy it's a shame because they look so cool
@@tyrongkojyBuilt a couple for my main base as they look cool.
I find them to be absolutely amazing at killing off Fighter squadrons; one with Gatling Lasers/Plasma/MAG can kill off entire Heavy Fighter teams single-handedly, but sadly at a certain point they just aren't fast enough to keep up with Interceptors. There WAS an unimplemented 'Super-Corsair' called the Saracen, armed with three cannons and fast enough to keep up with Marauders.
Six UFO sightings happen at the same time and you scrambling every interceptor in range is a mood I am all too familiar with.
You should do an Early game vid where you are like a PDF squad that is just hopelessly outgunned and has -10 morale until it leads to this vid curbstomping the Xenos. But it'll cost a mountain of corpses to get there.
Fresh Subscriber btw.
Nah
Early game is just MG spam
Use enough Dakka to make them never even dare move, level the entire damn map with dakka
Maybe one or two shields, shield optional since they're just meat shields regardless
*chef's kiss*
no one:
Dread-tank: "THEIR SHELTER HAS BECOME THEIR TOMB"
*blows up front of UFO*
That’s how I usually started assaulting the downed UFO - by breaching the doors. The xenos had a nasty habit of kiting my troops, by opening that door, firing at my troops and closing it again. It was really satisfying to blow said door up and see some purple guts splattered all over the hallway.
@@zaniatnik C4 charges also work - at least in early game.
@@matthewrawls1184 Yep, I've been using those too.
APOCALYPSE TANK READY
@@zaniatnik I just love to gass them with gass granades and rockets.
When the Humans in the 1980s start to resemble the GDI from 2047;
Hell March 2 *INTENSIFIES!*
Had to mod it... Needed proper bolters and power armor...
They shall be my Xenonauts, and they shall know no fear.
This was some stellar editing, subscribed!
1:24 Reflexes saving the day
It's about damn time people started to appreciate Xenonauts. I can only applaud this video. 👏
Xenonauts, bringing armored warfare to the alien menace.
One day I will actually finish this game. Maybe even before the sequel release.
is it that challenging? or you just busy?
@@cookiecracker2 it's not challenging, but rather turns a bit too repetative at some moment.
Ah, the same statement I give myself when playing the older XCOM games. I blame loving the early game.
@@vladislavivanov2334 ah okay, that's a shame. This game looks super fun.
@@vladislavivanov2334 It also has it's flaws like breaching really tight ufo corridors vs sebilians that have smoke immunity
never thought id see an MLG xenonaughts edit in 2021
This game perfectly inbodies the meme “I LOVE WAR”
This should be an official trailer lmao
honestly the airstrike button s the best thing in the game
Just barely beats out the actually interactive aircraft fights. (Yes, I did very much enjoy them, esp compared to XCOM original and remake)
Imagine being able to make it to midgame without getting shredded to pieces.
You just earned yourself a sub. Absolutely stellar editting.
It’s like halo 3 said, tanks beat everything….
Clean and simple editing, good content. Earned a sub
Noone gonna comment on the 999HP all the soldiers have?
This game is hard, for this particular save I just jack them all out so it's not suffering simulator :)
And one of them still ends up dead anyway.
@@CowCommando I mean, there are things that can just kill you. So theres that.
@@CowCommando Lmao yeah, I failed him
"Well that's just X-Comm with lesser steps.,"
Still waiting for the sequel but man it's taking forever.
Haven't played this game should I wait for the sequel or just get this?
@@onepangaean3018Not sure if you still want an answer, but I personally prefer the first game right now.
1:20 my reaction exactly when a reaper steps around a corner. Then I get a lucky crit....
Such a good game.
It deserves way more attention then it got.
looks so much like that original xcom, I loved that game.
Yoooo thank you so much for this video, I've never actually heard of this game, it somehow went under my radar.
Already wishlisted, gonna get it someday for sure.
Not gonna lie, this video was the thing to sway me over and buy Xenonauts. Ain't as micromanagey as OG XCOM, but darn it.. It's a lot of fun!
The amount of sounds from other games in this video is legendary.
Wait, so there's been a true-to-original remake of X-COM for 7 years? SEVEN YEARS!!! What a slowpoke am I...
You've earned yourself a sub
Red alert music? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
If you ask me aircombat is the only improovement over the original UFO Enemy Unknown. Also love how effective rippling is against UFOs.
the RA2 Theme hell march With the American flag it is... very cursed.
WH40k reference fit here like a glove, first time I unlocked predator army I was role-playing space marines :D
That reaper joke was too on point
One of my favorite mods for this game from the workshop is the one that increases the number of civilians and local military forces.
On missions with reapers it gets out of hand fast in the best of ways.
Is this the old xenonauts or the new one?
Great content btw 👍
It's the first Xenonauts, i would be very lucky to have access to the second on!
The emperor approves of this video. suffer not a xeno to live !
1:34 Dammit they really look like Imperial Guardsmen, if more specifically the Elysian Air Regiment
That is exceptionally accurate.
Never heard of this game but the “pov: your having fun” part was my favourite part of the video. Looks like incredibly thrilling gameplay
Someone has redraw the main menu scene with everyone angry at you and people behind them screaming, The screen behind them also displaying the last unit hold out alone in a building.😂
The redraw was so perfect similar to the loading scene.
Where did you find it?
@@khaosproductioDeviant Art
Have you tried X-Division yet? It's like Xenonauts' equivalent to Xcom's long war mod.
As a great man once said, when the going gets tough, the tough call for close fire support.
Xenonauts memes? At this time of year?
Well don't mind if I do
American hover tanks
GDI: I heard there was oil and aliens. So we came as fast as we could.
Killing aliens with an up-gunned Bradley is peak ‘murica
You know it gets real when the C&C music hits up
This looks like warhammer 40k with less steps
ive never heard of this game. but the memes and RA2 music made me want this really badly. this is probably the best way you could advertise a game today haha
dude
Insta sub, that editing is excellent.
DUDE!!! That was absolutely amazing!
Killed in Action simulator for me
Hippity hoppity get off our Terran property
1:05 I absolutely must know where you got that "DIE" line from.
I know the "Hello?" is Balloon Boy from FNAF 2, and "DIE" is clearly a 40k Space Marine (probably from one of the _Dawn of War_ games), but knowing exactly where I could find it would be really nice.
nice
The most chaotic Xenonaut edit I've ever seen
Remember no mercy for the foul alien !
Humanity first and always
i love the voice lines from company of heros as redalert theme is playing in the background
CZcams has Blessed you with my view, take the thumb and Sub and nice editing.
Oblivion injury sfx is a mandatory mod
THERE IS NO SHELTER FOR THOSE WHO OPPOSE THE EDF
haven't thought of this game in ages! thanks for the reminder
xenonauts: xpiratez but instead of literal booty and Civ5 level tech tree-ing, you get fun air combat.
Too bad i'm poor.
Nice video, lovin your style!
doing my part to help getting this channel more subs
damn, the editing quality is hella good
I got this gem of a game for free on GOG some day. It feels like I stole something
"Sir, a blind corner..."
"Charge!!!"
Now this is the content I've been waiting for
I never played this game and I see this game first time, looks funny.
Everyone's gangsta until a tank rolls around the corner.
Awesome editing skills XD
this game looks like tons of fun
this is exactly how I played UFO Defence 23 years ago...
To quote another franchise of mankind vs aliens: tank beats everything
This video singlehandedly made me buy this game. I got frustrated and refunded it later on, but with the sequel coming soon I think I'll give the series another try.
Pretty damn accurate... and funny. The second one is even better.^^
Big nutshell, bigger than other games :D
This is some good shit, keep it up!
I love how it is either horny for the alien or "PURGE THEM IN HOLY FIRE, FOR THE EMPEROR", with no inbetween here on the internet.
I totally forgot that I bought this game, never played it, and continued playing the original X-COM instead.
"Hell March"
Good game, GOTY, nothing more to say.
Ankha bit surprised me! But this is a good discovery I have made. Thank you CZcams AI for pushing this into my eyeballs!
This video is incredible. Subscribed.
i like this, this was a good commercial.
God tier editing, this channel is going places.
Cool vid. Thx. Short and straight to the point :D
My only experience of Xenonauts comes form watching DDRJake's "ballistics only" challenges and there the xeno scum never dropped with such frequency. In fact it was routine that only half of the human squad returned form any mission... if the stars were right.
When I turned on the video, I was confused, I thought my spotify is still playing :^|
Xcom classic would be proud
