The Iron Rose posted:Two quick mods that I made for Long War! I've started actually loving around with UPK Modding, so you'll have to install these with PatcherGUI. It's really very simple to use. I was thinking of dling your previous long war adjustments, but was that one goon 'no text' bug a result of improper installation or was it something else? I really like your changes and love to give it a go.

I really like your changes and love to give it a go. Pretty sure that was improper installation/a corrupted LW install. I don't change around any .int files so it couldn't effect text in any event.

Nordick posted:Training Roulette is great, I personally don't even wanna play without anymore. You'll end up with some... sub-optimal selections, but can also luck out and get some crazy OP combinations. With Long War some class-essential perks are still guaranteed so you won't end up with medics without any medic perks, but with vanilla EW it's more random after the first one. Between Not Created Equally/Training Roulette/Hidden Potential, I have an Assault with Heat ammo, Sprinter, and Sentinel, with mid-90s Aim at Major. And she's psionic with 98 Will

I have no idea how this game manages to bug out with LOS so much. See that elite muton standing out in the open? My entire squad can't see him. They could see him when was hidding behind a tree, but after I blew that tree up he somehow became invisible to them. I only have sight of him because I mind controlled one of his pals.

Trees being blown up and loving with LOS is something I've encountered a few times, specifically.

Hey: does anyone know of a mod where you can pick up/swap your fallen comrade's item with yours? I miss that about the original.

I just got my first EW vanilla win, around July. Having actually experienced the Meld stuff I kind of want to get back into it and start seriously exploiting the stuff, since I kind of ambled into fielding two MEC-3s and genemodding Annette and the Furies into psychic superhumans, and I'm interested in trying a game using a bigger MEC squad. Insofar as MECs are concerned, am I right in my impressions that the best MEC Trooper bonus is going to be the Sniper one by a longshot, followed by maybe the Heavy one? Also, is it worth holding out on MEC production so I've got better-statted soldiers to convert, or should I not worry that much about optimising my statlines if I'm just going to be knocking over levels with railguns and grenades anyway?

While we're adding things from the original, does anyone have a bugfix for the lovely interception music playing instead of the rad as hell song they should have used?

I'm on the final mission of my first EW Classic run and it's been easy as hell with 3 MEC 3s, all Assault-based Punchmechs with EMP. To me, using Assaults for MECs was a no brainer. I basically got the opposite impression; Snipers seemed to make the worst MECs because MECs are all about mobility, toughness, and cool punchsplosions. Standing in one place to take more accurate shots seems both boring and a waste of the MEC's strengths. FistEnergy fucked around with this message at 14:16 on Jun 29, 2015 |

...Can we please stop acting like the photoshops involving penis are a good thing here? It's destroying what little faith in humanity I have left. And if you don't have faith in humanity, why bother saving it from the aliens?
I can have moments of... eccentricity and sometimes be quite curious about things. Please forgive me if I do something foolish or rude.

Interesting! I had an Assault MEC on my team and it was the one that kept getting the poo poo dinged out of it; at least two missions off the top of my head where it went to 1-2 HP after a round of fire. OTOH, it would often be running in by itself, since my other MEC was a Sniper build, so that probably didn't help. I'd generally been using them as mobile artillery, setting things up so the enemy scatters into their range and bombarding them with two actions' worth of fire or throwing out grenades if they were out of standard weapons range. I'll have to try the Rush 'N' Crush approach next time.

The Penis is evil! The Penis shoots Snakes, and makes new Life to poison the Earth with a plague of aliens, as never it was. But the Gun shoots Death and purifies the Earth of the filth of X-Rays. Go forth, and kill! Bradford has spoken.

I own Xenonaughts but haven't played it since the very first version on Desura. Is it worth playing now or should I just go back to playing Open Xcom?
