Research depth/info

Hey everyone,

I was wondering, is there anything known about the depth/variety of the research tree in PP? Especially in TFTD and Apocalypse I loved how research really changed/shaped the game.

This was in fact the major breaking point for the Firaxis X-Coms for me: the fact that research was basically Sniper => Better Sniper => Even better sniper… which was a major bummer imo.

I’d love to see research where actually different types of armor, weapons and tools become available.

it is supposed to be like that, yes. However, we have not seen anything concrete regarding research (and I am not sure if we should before 1.0 unless there are specific research mechanics Snapshot wasn’t to test) so so far those a just promises.
