Research is the core of XCOM, we must learn more about the enemy and how we can defeat them.

Projects
List of research projects (incomplete) in Enemy Unknown 2012
}Project | Description | Prerequisite | Cost | Speed (Diff. + Scientists) |
Result |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Xeno-Biology | If we must face the invaders in combat, then we must understand 'alien life' as well as we do our own. | None | 4 Sectoid Corpses | Normal (4 days) (C+5) Normal (8d) |
Facility: Alien Containment Research: Arc Thrower |
Weapon Fragments | These fragments are all that remain of the powerful alien weaponry we've encountered so far. Further study could lead to advances in our own weapons development programs. | None | 5 Weapon Fragments | (C+5) Normal (8d) | Engineer: S.C.O.P.E. Foundry: S.C.O.P.E. Upgrade |
Alien Materials | The aliens appear to be using materials that are lighter and stronger than anything we've ever seen. A cursory examination has already given us ideas for ways to improve the soldiers' current body armor, but more research is required. | None | 5 Weapon Fragments | Fast (3 days) (C+5) Normal (8d) |
Engineer: Nano-Fiber Vest |
Experimental Warfare | Although our understanding of the alien technology is still limited, what we've seen so far is enough to revolutionize combat as we know it. If we are to level the playing field, we must adapt the alien technology for our own use. | Alien Materials | None | (C+5) Slow (12d) | Facility: The Foundry Engineer: Phoenix Cannon |
Alien Nav Computer | The navigational control systems recovered from the crashed UFO seem to act as both a flight computer and a communications module. Further study may lead to improvements in our ability to detect incoming UFOs. | Alien Materials | 2 UFO Flight Computers | (C+5) Slow (20d) | Facility: Satellite Nexus Foundry: Stealth Satellites |
Beam Weapons | Our research into alien weapon fragments led to the idea of portable laser weaponry. Our early prototypes have been encouraging, but we continue to struggle with issues related to heat dispersion. | Weapon Fragments | 5 Alloy 10 Weapon Fragments |
(C+9) Slow (14d) | Engineer: Laser Pistol; Laser Rifle Foundry: Improved Pistol II Research: Precision Lasers, Heavy Lasers |
Carapace Armor | We've continued our experiments on the alien alloys, and one of the proposed applications is a lighter, stronger form of body armor. Our early tests are very encouraging. | Alien Materials | 10 Alloy | (C+9) Slow (16d) | Engineer: Carapace Armor Research: Skeleton Suit |
Arc Thrower | Unknown | Xeno-Biology | Unknown | Unknown | Engineer: Arc Thrower |
Sectoid Autopsy | Unknown | 1 Sectoid Corpse | 5 Days on Normal with 12 Scientists | Engineer: Uplink Targeting (AIM) | |
Thin Man Autopsy | These aliens were clearly intended to be infiltrators, moving among us and observing without raising an alarm. However, the question remains, how were the aliens able to physically modify this species to achieve this goal? | 1 Thin Man Corpse | 3 Days on Normal with 16 Scientists | Foundry: Improved Medikit | |
Floater Autopsy | ' | 1 Floater Corpse | ' | Engineer: Defense Matrix (Dodge) | |
Muton Autopsy | ' | 1 Muton Corpse | ' | Foundry: Ammo Conservation | |
Chryssalid Autopsy | ' | 1 Chryssalid Corpse | ' | Engineer: Chitin Plating | |
Drone Autopsy | ' | 1 Drone Wreck | ' | Foundry: Drone Capture | |
Cyberdisk Autopsy | ' | 1 Cyberdisk Wreck | ' | Engineer: UFO Tracking (Boost) | |
Berserker Autopsy | ' | 1 Berserker Corpse | ' | Engineer: Combat Stims | |
Heavy Floater Autopsy | ' | 1 Heavy Floater Corpse | ' | Foundry: Advanced Repair | |
Skeleton Suit | Although the weight of this suit has been substantially reduced, its defensive capabilities are still intact...and the reduced weight has allowed us to couple that suit with the climbing grapple that we've been prototyping. | Research: Carapace Armor | 15 Alloys | 16 Days on Normal with 16 Scientists | Engineer: Skeleton Suit |
Titan Armor | ' | Interrogation: Berserker | ' | ' | Engineer: Titan Armor |
Psionic Lab | ' | Interrogation: Sectoid Commander Autopsy: Sectoid Commander |
' | ' | Facility: Psionic Lab |
Precision Lasers | ' | 5 Alloys 5 Weapon Fragments |
