I was thinking about going back to play some Enemy unknown, but I just think I'll wait till this comes out to get back into it. Seem's they've added a lot more strategies that you can fail at. That new enemy type that seeks out your snipers sounds super frustrating as all hell. I just hope they balanced out the difficulty a bit more especially when it comes to the operations side of things. I became very overwhelmed by the operations and research elements that went with base building. I gave up when I started loosing countries left and right and had no way to regain those countries into the fold. Still it's one of the best tactical strategy games ever created.

I wouldn't be surprised if they added some tutorial bits about satellites and what they do for you. That seems to be the main reason people lose countries, aside from failing too many missions or getting unlucky with tough maps and mission types.
