Can't you just leave him out in the open with your squad on overwatch? I don't recall ever having a problem with this. The bleeding out thing sounds annoying but how often is that ever going to happen?


Leaving them out in the open there's about a 50/50 chance they'll just shoot at me instead of moving at first, preventing any reaction shots. A critical means I lose a guy to a poorly executed mechanic.


Yeah, I remember all those times in SS2 where the aliens got free moves on your turn despite - OK what the fuck are you talking about. Are you just trying to troll me by namedropping SS2?


Being jumped and chewed on by enemies in situations where you should have been relatively safe but the game decides you're going to get hit no matter what. SS2's enemies coming out of rooms behind you you just cleared, Doom 3 monster closest and imp surprise doors, etc.
