I'm only in April in my game of Long War, first month, second week I had, I believe, a supply ship. I was in no way prepared for it even if it's only a supply ship. Long War likes to throw those gear checks at you. If you try this poo poo, be prepared to head back to the LZ and ex-fil.

PiCroft posted:I've tried the Long War mod before, couldn't get into it. It felt like I was getting thrown into poo poo I couldn't possibly be prepared for; once I attacked a downed Harvester, I found the bridge and literally 8-9 mutons barged out. This was in addition to the ~5 Chrysalids and god knows how many floaters. This was beforeI'd had a chance to get Laser weapons and had only just gotten Carapace armour. The landed large UFO in the first few months is hard-coded, and is specifically there to teach you that skipping or evacing missions is perfectly okay. If you're badass enough to beat it without good troops or equipment it'll gain you a bunch of resources, but also make the aliens throw harder stuff at you from then on.

If you try to savescum to win every mission you can send the algorithms determining alien resources and movements way out of whack and end up screwing yourself. but the invasion isn't an 'invasion', its an escalating test to see if humans are psionically gifted/physically gifted in a way none of the other slave species are. Like, the Ethereal explicitly spells this out for you at the end of the game. The aliens could have won by throwing Sectopods/Ethereals at you month one super easily, but they throw Sectoids by themselves instead. Long War gets way up its own rear end about this and implements what is a backwards difficulty curve like vanilla. Like, the aliens should be more difficult if you do well and easier if you do poorly. And not in Long War's bullshit 'They give a bit more Meld' sense.

I don't know why I have a thing against evacing missions. In the past I would always save scum because I felt that losing a soldier was like a massive failure. The same applied to the original Xcom. It wasn't until I took a step back, stopped caring so deeply about individual soldiers and carried on that the games became a lot more fun and less tedious.

ZenVulgarity posted:Seems to require a lot of muscle to be able to do that though and much slower Live specimen This race developed in an extremely hostile environment. They are extremely tough and can resist extreme temperature variations. Their mobility depends on a snake-like giant "foot" which protects all the vital organs. Their objectives appear to be purely predatory and they appear to be under the command of some other Intelligence which directs their military-style incursions on earth. Autopsy Snakeman - Autopsy The skin is extremely tough and heat resistant. The cardio-vascular system is part of the muscular system which uses the hydraulic principle to create motion. The only true muscle is the "heart". The reproductive system appears to be very efficient. Reproduction is asexual, with each snakeman carrying up to fifty eggs inside its body at any one time. Left to its own devices this species would be a severe threat to life on earth.

Long War has an awful sense of pacing, even worse than the original X-COM. It quickly got to the point that I was trudging through repetitive, tedious missions over and over because ignoring them would harm me too much in the long run. It's a shame because it has a lot of cool quality of life mods rolled into it that I can't seem to get otherwise. I really hope Firaxis randomizes enemy reinforcements on the "fixed" maps in XCOM2 so you can't just memorize where they'll spawn and kill them with overwatch fire. Actually, I'm kind of hoping enemy reinforcements are endless and increase in strength as you prolong an engagement.

The strangest thing about OG X-COM is that the best move you can make on the first turn of any mission is to...... hit End Turn. Enemy reaction fire is greatly increased when they have full time units, which they absolutely do have when you try to single file march out of the skyranger. All those reaction shots you've eaten on the first round? Most of them are prevented by just waiting a single turn.

This is an excellent plan except for the times when they get lucky, spot you, and roll a grenade up the on-ramp. Then it's hilarious.

Also I have the best plan of attack for OG X-COM alien bases. This is how I clean up the map late game after obtaining the avenger. Please listen to me fellow goons because I am a strategy master. Mission Name: Baptism by Fire Objective: Destroy alien base Plan steps: 1. Recruit 26 brand new rookies. 2. Manufacture 26 laser rifles and buy 26 grenades. 3. Shove all rookies into avenger, 1 laser rifle, 1 grenade each. 4. BUDDDDDY SYSTEM. All soldiers pick a buddy and hold hands while exploring the base. 5. TWENTY-SIX MEN ENTER, HOPEFULLY AT LEAST ONE MAN LEAVES. Repeat for all bases. ~~Fin~~

I love it when goons do that thing were they get super outraged/grossed out about horrible poo poo on the internet, and then post their entire folder of it. That they collected doing research. Because they just wanted to learn how bad it was.

I watched the XCom2 trailer and couldn't comprehend what I was seeing or why it was important - soldiers stealthily get into place and then launch some guerilla-warfare style attack on a group of hodge podge aliens, uh, sure - but it reminded me that I bought Enemy Unknown and Enemy Within in a Steam sale and hadn't played. Four hours in and loving it, I realized all the other countries were leaving because I forgot to build satellites and had no way to control the panic. That's cool, I want to start over anyway now that I know what I'm doing and won't take stupid casualties the same way I did earlier. This time I'll start with Enemy Within now that I know it blends in to the original game and isn't "XCom 1.5".

On the serious side, I'm glad that the snake tits they decided to add weren't the standard video game size of comically large. I legit didn't notice them until people pointed it out.

Well now you know XCOM2 is the direct sequel to your first playthrough. You jerk.

I'm too drunk on rum to deal with this poo poo. I'm going to bed. Or have more rum. Either or. I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.
