All those dismissed squaddies must be how the aliens got so many Advent Officers in XCOM 2.
Just imagine all the soldiers telling stories at the island
One guy “yeah, it was sectoids and thin men for us”
Another “almost got railed by a self-regenerating robot”
The last guy “hulk and a sorcerer, man why tf did I get in so late”.
It's pretty wild for sure
I wondered why this age-old quality video has only a handful of likes, when I realized it's just minutes old brand new xcom content. Well done, algorithm, well done.
I hope you enjoy it :)
still under-appreciated. These Xcom challenges make my day though
MAN those rookies were absolute badasses. You'd almost think they were Tunnel Snakes in disguise!
I hear butch is the barman at the tropical island
@@InsaneFrame I can envision this now, if I were an artist this would be getting slapped on a canvas IMMEDIATELY! 😁👍 excellent work as always Frame, looking forward to what's next! Cheers from Appalachia 🍻
I didn’t realize it at the first, but the biggest problem with this was not being able to having over 4 soldiers in a mission die to no training center… that makes this far rougher than expected!
The beginning is hamperd by lack of funds and later on panick is just ridiculous the base defence was a panic fest
It's so nice of you to send the veterans to a nice farm vacation upstate somewhere. I bet there all having a great time running through the fields
yeah they did defend the planet so give them a nice time
@@InsaneFrame Of course, in the old days of British TV, go to live on a farm in Wales was actually a euphemism for pet death.
Me, having problems with REGULAR run with everything at my disposal want to throw away my keyboard and motivation to play this type of games.
This was INSANE!
It's ridiculously tough and honestly it was luck at sometimes (especially at the end)
1:38 "Bradford is waiting for us in his PRIME, doctor Vahlen is looking EXCELLENT, and Dr. Shen......."
Wow, sick burn against Dr. Shen I guess? Lmao!
Funnily enough Dr shen is my favourite in xcom franchise tied with xcom 2 john bradford
Nice more XCOM. Well to be honest almost any challenge you do is great to watch, but good old XCOM just hits different.
Keep it up mate
thankyou it means alot
I have yet to manage keeping all the countries in the project on a NORMAL run ...
Great video!
Satlites are key my friend!
I hope you all enjoy the video! thankyou all for sticking with the channel your all phenomenal
No way you skiped the tier 2 weapons and armor (except ligth plasma rifle) and got lucky enough to get two termal generators close to eachother
Not gonna lie I straight up thought this was impossible
X-COM is how I found your channel, your X-COM 2 WOTC with only a single soldier video is my personal favorite, and now I get more X-COM content (I love the fallout content too). Happy day!
Well got more xcom 2 content coming up soon :)
Simply excellent @@InsaneFrame
FINALLY!!! Thank you so much, I'm gonna edge to this for the rest of nnn. 🖤🖤🖤
ummm okay whatever floats your boat i guess
An absolutely phenomenal show with that insane flair I enjoy. That was quite the clutch! The important lesson to be learned here is to make sure your insectoids and chryssalids are taught proper manners and etiquette. Absolutely very important!
Ahhh fantastic of you to notice glad you enjoyed the video! :)
Calling Julian Gollop "one of the developers" of XCOM is like calling Sid Meier "one of the developers" of Civilization. He created it!
Oh damn didn't know it went that far my utpost respect to sir gollop!!! (If he create xcom hes a hero in my books)
@@InsaneFrame His X-COM: Enemy Unknown (note the hyphen) titles were the end result of many years of turn-based tactical games. This XCOM is a reboot/reimagining of a game released in 1994.
This guy - beats the game with only rookies
Me - the whole run is fucked because I forgot to reload once
Dude got a challenge coming up where I'm not even using weapons in xcom only abilities
Damm thats realy... INSANE 😨😨😨😨😨😨
haha they don't call me insane for nothing ;)
@@InsaneFrame 😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨
Me: man I want to watch a new x- com challenge
Insane Frame: well look at what I have.
Me: ill get my popcorn and cola
Epic vid my dude thank you.
Your very welcome sire hope you enjoy it!
A coworker was just telling me about this game the other day. He highly recommended it.
Its very good one of my favourite games of all time
Yeah but can you do it with only cookies? You know, for the nukie?
a cookie you say? perhaps...
@@InsaneFrame Theyll do it all for the nookie
(Come on) the nookie
(Come on) so they can take that cookie
And stick it up your (yeah)
Stick it up your (yeah)
Stick it up your (yeah)
Stick it up your
:) Love your stuff :)
Enemy CD player, thank you sir, I needed that laugh! 😁😆
@@roundnround952 ahh yes the floating Walkman I remember this quite the fiesty alien tech
@@InsaneFrame Indeed!
Putting the tea in Argentina. Thank you for the tea. Cheers.
The absolute mad lad
It was brutal as heck!
But can you do it with just Sid Meier?
I don't think I understand the question?
@@InsaneFrame
Im pretty sure there's an easter egg for xcom 1 or enemy within if you name a soldier Sid Meyer you get a fully upgraded super soldier.
@@arifhossain9751 ahhhh right gotcha yes I remember using that as a teenager :)
You can but in my experience the AI just go's
"Hold my space beer"
Haven't watched the video , but it is going to be amazing 😎
Thankyou I hope you enjoy it :)
I was thinking of doing this exact challenge
it's insanely tough! sheer panick from the rookies
I lost it when rookie Duke Nukem showed up
He forgot his sunglasses that day
@@InsaneFrame It was a good day to die
It physically hurt to see Zhang get dismissed
an XCOM video! nice.
2:45 *high five*
*high fives villings* (good to see you again villings)
What legends! I love these videos you do such a great job or narrating and keeping it moving!!
Love these btw! I sure hope you'll try beating XCOM 2 with only one Ranger.
Its coming I've done a test run best defensive class for a solo run :D
Amazed and subscribed
Thankyou truly amazing of you 3rdworld!
Bro is actually masochistic 💀
Sir shouldn't we keep the better soldiers
Yes but the commander is insane...
Yes, but the commander has a.. *Unique* strategy
@@ElijahEystberg yep
Had to be Within, Unknown's Thin Men probably end the run on their own :p
Next stage is "Can you beat Xcom enemy within without any units?"
we could shivs or something?
@@InsaneFrame Shivs are the units, so that's impossible I guess
But I've another impossible-like challenge! Can you beat the game without any cups of tea?
Trench warfare? Id say more like gutter warfare.
Only 5 minutes in and was wondering why your weren't giving the rookies plasma weapons that you get for catching aliens
Got to research them first before you can dish them out
How well is the only android run (chimera squad) going?
Great work with rookiing the game
Don't worry got 1 more challenge in cyberpunk then your challenge is up :) (so should be uploaded 2 - 3 weeks)
@@InsaneFrame thanks bud
Basicly you are making xcom the new global incover army. I said It right?
OK. so... I've played enough XCOM to know.
run questions.
1.) SHIV aren't allowed?
2.) can you win a promoted soldier from a mission to get the OTS for squad size up?
3.) what difficulty are we playing on, you dont appear to be ironman since you took several hours for gangplank. 3 HP on the thin men, means 'normal difficulty no ironman?
see cuz when i think XCOM I thing Classic Ironman. yer allowing items, like grenades but not items like shivs?
didn't lose any countries, as you shouldn't on normal if you aren't losing any missions.
you were not promoting your rookies? you can;t just not promote them? you needed to buy more?
again, confused by the specific criteria of this challenge.
1) no shivs allowed rookies only
2) Soldiers are automatically promoted to squaddies as they get a class assigned
3) Normal difficulty no ironman but i reload from the start of the mission to keep it fair
The challenge was using rookies only so equipment is allowed but i played it on normal as that was difficult enough and gives the solid experience
Now do it with long war mod.
Never saw the mission friends in low places show up when i was playing is that mission rare or something?
Its a 3 part mission enabled with xcom enemy within can enable/disable it at the start screen in the options menu
@@InsaneFrame never saw that when choosing settings before the game. Thank you!
Am I the only 1 who thinks this guy sounds like a less nasal Spiffing Brit?
I'll take that as a compliment!
@@InsaneFrame I can't wait for an iceberg video w/you 2 in it 😆😂🤣😭
I'm confused. You aren't forced to promote rookies. And Stat buffs aren't given until you promote them. So wouldn't you be able to just use the same rookies without promoting them? That would save you alot of money and make the starting game easier
So when they are promoted they automatically gain the rank as you can see by their equipment so i dismissed them before missions
The simplest answer is to rotate new recruits in to not break the rules!
In Enemy Unknown rookies are forcibly promoted to a class on the mission end screen.
In XCOM2 you can do that if I remember right. Unless you scroll through the barracks with the arrow bottons, which does auto-promote them for some reason.
