Severe lack of info
Hi, new player here. I've played a couple of first missions and it seems like the game just hides a lot of substantial info during battles that i need to plan my actions correctly. For example:
- Some abilities have a cooldown, but I won't know how long it is or is there a cd at all until I'll use this ability
- Tooltip for firing a gun specifically states that this action will end turn, throwing a grenade also ends turn, but the tooltip doesn't say so.
- I can't see if the enemy will be flanked or not after I'll move
- I've reached a mission where you fight the Chosen assassin boss. It has a huge pannel explaining its strengths and weakness, what it doesn't explain is that the Chosen can move during your turn
- On the same mission, sniper from an allied faction started her turn with only one action point for some reason. I can't check why because there's no combat log, nor character screen
- I can't see what zone will be covered by overwatch, nor how much it decreases chance to hit
So, my question: Is it intended experience, or am I missing something? Because I'm feeling pretty stupid right now
