However I've said it in another thread and I'll say it again - some stylishly made armor for marines (red, yellow, different designs of the armor plates) which fits the theme of the game, as well as different "skins" for aliens (not necessarily different colors, but maybe tribal designs like tattoos or something), as a cheap completely optional paid DLC packages a la Killing Floor would absolutely rock IMO - of course definitely after release :-) .

- Minimap... hmm I personally do not like this style. I never had a problem with the old minimap - Momentum back on Fade blink (THANK YOU!!!!) - Hugh doesn't walljump, so I have no way of telling what they have done with that - You can see amount of egg's available when trying to spawn
Urgh there has never been a worse time for a patch.. Xcom:EU and Dishonored just unlocked for me, now i can't decide what of this awesome stuff to play first.
Really could use an real life IP! Just clone myself 2 times to play everything at once, maybe make a third one just for work (would suck to be that one) :D

Relevant username is relevant ;-)
But anyway, the most interesting thing for me was the "big optimization they can't talk about." Maybe some way to magically and easily multithread the entire game? XD

There should be a FAQ up by now instead of wasting the devs times with questions they've answered so many times.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
There are always new and interesting questions, however somehow it seems like the old ones are chosen to be answered over and over.
Suggestion for these impromptu Hugh Q&As - it would be better if you didn't play the game and just focused on answering questions like the traditional Q&As IMO. I think people really are looking for insight into the development process more than they want to watch somebody play the game, and the game distracts from the questions getting answered. Then afterwards you can stream yourself playing the game all day long and that's totally cool.

or maybe it would be better to set up an 'ask question' thread and pick some nice pre-planned questions to answer... maybe if you don't know the answer you could ask the relevant person etc before the stream.
i like the q&a but every week is more or less exactly the same questions and therefore exactly the same answers :)

Or maybe he could focus on answering the questions, while playing a pre-recorded match in the background? Still get to show of some gameplay, and answer more questions.
In any case, these weekly Q&As are awesome, keep it up.
