Did Beagle ever upload the video of that epic base defense where a blueshirt killed a berserker? I haven't been able to find it.

I don't like the idea of Long War so I haven't played it. It sounds pretty unfun.

i prefer my own mod, Short War, where you start with plasma and colonel recruits, and each soldier gets three advances per level, and they're strong, and real, and my friend

Hmmm that sounds better, but still bad. I wish there was some kind of intermediate option between those two.

I started watching Beagle play Long War and it looks really good, really fun and really different. So i tried it myself, modded it slightly, tried it again, watched more Beagle and now it's finally fun. Kind of. It actually just makes me wish more RPG's were turnbased, like D&D.

long war has good ideas but it's a poorly designed unfun slog and some of the problems can be solved by modding it further well that's my post

Try: http://www.twitch.tv/miss_jamball/c/5109253 1:51 is when he picks up the assault carrier, 2:00 is "we have a breach  ", 3:24 is when he moves the blueshirt (AlexD) into position, 3:30 is when the blueshirt panics the Berserker.

nm - everyone's right. GOD I wish Long War NEVER existed! Why can't we have poo poo like gimped snipers with poo poo health, no squadsight and requirement to fire their main weapon with no other turns taken from the very beginning, like in vanilla XCOM? Ooooooh IhateitIhateitIhateit!

I liked Long War but I can see how and why a lot of people wouldn't. The sissy slapfight between people who like it and people who don't though is dumb, embarrassing, and probably more suited to the GameFaqs message boards. Can you guys go back to talking about snake boobs or something instead? Thanks.

Just think, in an alt universe Firaxis didn't balk about competing with Fallout and Star Wars for a Q4 slot and we would all be getting excited for XCOM2 coming out really soon.

In LW2, snake tits will be recruitable, but will start out as A-cups. Tigen will need to research various ranks of alien-human gene splicing to upgrade them

I don't think there's so much overlap between fans of turn-based strategy and first person open-world RPGs that the release of Fallout is a huge contributing factor in X-Com 2's pushback.

Hitting Christmas is huge because of gifts and people generally being more flush with cash then, versus January/February when people are paying their credit card bills. It's one thing to not want to compete with a big game in October, but even an AA game I worked on wanted to be in stores for the holidays.

There may not be much of an outright overlap between turn-based strategy and open-world RPGs (Fallout can be played third person  ), but the overlap between fans of Alien Invasion and fans of post-apocalyptic survival stories is probably significantly bigger.

I am a very enthusiastic lover of XCOM and most sci-fi stuff but Fallout has never clicked for me. I know I'm a minority in that regard, but eh. Too much brown.

Has Beagle gotten over his LW trauma yet or is he still streaming other stuff?
