X-Com: The Two Sides Multiplayer LP
Orb:
So I was wondering what level of interest there would be for a MP LP?
Essentially, I would grab a member of the forum through Steam chat, and we would, at a snail's pace, play a game of X-com. Probably one update = 1/2 - 1 month. I would have to be skimpish on the action(no turn by turn plays :P).
Since its competitive, you wouldn't be able to pick specific weapon layouts and such for X-com soldiers. However, you could claim existing ones.
On that note, this sort of LP also opens up the possibility of an alien LP, instead of the usual X-com. There wouldn't be claimable soldiers, and I'm not too sure it would lean itself as much toward an LP. However, if there's more interest, I will go with it.
For any of you naysayers, the person I'll be playing with will agree to wait until the end of the game to look at the thread. Or hey, we could both do opposite LPs and you guys can chuckle as we make false guesses.
This may happen tomorrow, next week, or not at all. I just want to know if there's interest, and what flavor it should be in?(X-com, Alien, or both?)

I'm very interested in this LP. But you should probably warn people that this game is no longer available, before you get bombarded with requests.

I just got 0.98b, by googleing for 90 seconds, so it can't be that hard. That being said the game is no longer in development or getting support from the author. All because someone one at 2K got worried we'd confuse it with their fancy shooter. >:(
EuchreJack:
Actually, 2K also has a tactical squad based game in the works.
But I share your anger. I liked being able to play the aliens. Nobody wants to make an game about an alien invasion from the alien's standpoint. :'(
Did the developer make an AI for X-Com prior to quiting? That was the feature I most wanted.
