Save Game Slowdowns
Having a lot of savegames can cause the game to momentarily freeze while loading the "Save Game" screen (most noticeable due to music pausing for a second).
This HDD bottleneck problem can be solved by cleaning up the SaveData folder: %USERPROFILE%\My Documents\My Games\XCOM - Enemy Unknown\XComGame\SaveData
Old unused saves should be either deleted or moved to another location.
Turn off multiplayer chat
Some users may be using an alternate VoIP program (Ventrilo, Mumble, TeamSpeak, etc.) to chat while playing multiplayer, and may wish to turn the in-game chat off. There is no in-game setting to do so, but by editing an INI file, you can turn off voice chat.
