Maybe you can try giving them both the XCOM and the EXALT regen perks.

I'd like SHIVs that can level up and equip secondary stuff like rocket launchers, arc throwers, and prox mines.

Levelling up SHIVs has never been tried AFAIK, but equipping secondaries failed rather hilariously. Seeing a shiv roll up to a Muton elite and spray medikit in its face instead of bullets was the funniest loving thing you have no idea.

A research-able AI upgrade for SHIVs would be cool, but what would you use for the voice pack?

Upgrading them sounds cool but it shouldn't require doing missions with them and should be a foundry project instead. They shouldn't work exactly like regular soldiers after all.

Yeah it'd really be OK to have a dedicated XCOM 2 thread with lulls between videos and announcements, probably very few people would die as a result. Maybe none, even.

The Iron Rose posted:Levelling up SHIVs has never been tried AFAIK, but equipping secondaries failed rather hilariously. I actually have some thoughts on this. I think the SHIV is trying to unequip its built in main gun when it equips the medikit and that breaks the pawn. It *might* be possible to build an exception for SHIVs into the equip/unequip weapons code. Also, I found the code for regeneration and could easily have it heal all damage instead of just hp damage. I can also set the regen to whatever I want, although I haven't come up with a good way to make it dynamic for player controlled characters.

I got really lucky with the douchedisk, when it used its second move to wander into my field of vision and then just sorta sat there until it died to a dozen laser shots.

Needless to say it didn't last long when my turn came around.

I guess it was itchy trigger tentacle. it was especially bullshit because the Mectoid's coterie had opened the doors for them. I ended up having to reload because there was a piece of bugged cover, and ended NOT triggering them, and then when i did activate them they decided to go on overwatch. I did have a Cyberdisk Boss, which was largely underwhelming because it never did anything after I disabled it, as it tried running away only to get murdered. I ended up managing to snag a nasty bersker variant and a Muton Elite, in addition to the sectoid commander (I long since buffed the arc thrower chance, because it's lovely asf in long war). I got pretty lucky with a lot of shots, and the aliens managed to constantly miss, atleast the dangerous ones, anyway. Mectoids would miss 60% shots against my goliath, only for a sectoid to hit a back row 30% chance, which would promptly be ignored by his DR. Also is there a reason the game hates me trying to deploy numerous MECs or SHIVs? I've been trying to deploy a MEC squad to clear some weak UFOs, and the game loves crashing as I'm outfitting them.

The Psi Screen item in long war seems useless based on its description. Lose 12 will to gain 1DR vs Psi? So, what, mindfray doesn't do its one point of damage? The damage isn't the problem with mindfray. I guess it takes one damage off of ethereal Psi Lance and Rift, but both of those scale damage based on willpower as far as I understand. Wouldn't this thing be a lot more useful if the 12 will got you just 1DR across the board?

I've always viewed it as doing the right thing and putting a helmet on them. You are hearing em through suit speakers rather than direct voice. So, Im playing dynamic war long war. WTF is with weapon fragments all of a sudden? I hit plasma/titan level research, and suddenly everything is taking 75+ fragments to research. Vahlen is sitting on her butt waiting for parts. Ive got like 2000 elerium and alloys, but weapon fragments are suddenly in deeply short supply, to where I'm going to have to play for another 2-3 years in game to get research done.
