Correct the bugs in the "go to" routines. I hated having soldiers run way
out of the way (invariably into a prox grenade or enemy fire) when there
was a simple and obvious path. (And the continual hover in X-Com III when
you select an area they can't get to is irritating as well.

Correct the axial tilt of the Earth. (6 months of sunlight above the
arctic/antarctic circle followed by 6 of night.)

Make it easier to set up and save a squad configuration. I came to despise
the need to move weapons around before every battle in X-Com I, and while
X-Com III did it better, you still had to go back and add grenades and clips.

Keep the battles small. I thought X-Com II was much worse than X-Com I
because of the size and length of the battles. You might want to reduce the
carrying capacity of the skyranger or do something similar.

More variety in the tiles.

Use the X-Com I interface or make the X-Com III interface much simpler.
