 Finished the second tutorial mission. Have no idea if this is a poor, expected or good start (Commander Difficulty). Grenades are still a lifeblood, at least early on.

Game runs perfect for me aside from graphics gently caress ups due to ultrawide screen. The load times on missions seem kinda long with an SSD.

I take it you should stick to full cover where ever physically possible?

Explosives snapping to a grid rather than being free aim is driving me crazy. I know I can get both of those guys in the blast game, just let me do it

Turrets are considered enemy units for the sake of mission completion, ugh.

It feels like a regression from the last game. poptart_fairy posted:Turrets are considered enemy units for the sake of mission completion, ugh. I have cleared mission without clearing turrets. Maybe you have to kill them only if you agro them or something?

I set the initial soldier pool to pool only or w/e in the config files, but none of the soldiers from my character pool ending up in my barracks. What did I do wrong?

What's the max defense bonus you can get? I've got my rangers running around in spider suits with that dodge PCS and occasionally using the aid protocol on them.

If you guys are having trouble with turrets blow up the roof they're on. Falling damage destroys them instantly.

One of the first things I want to do when I get home and can play is use the most guys I can at once, while also facing a commensurately large number of baddies. I like the feeling of large scale encounters; like, I always preferred the original Tactics Ogre to Final Fantasy Tactics for that reason. How many people can the game handle you spawning at once before it starts stacking people inside a single cell on the other side of the map like what happened with Beagle?

Strobe posted:If you guys are having trouble with turrets blow up the roof they're on. Falling damage destroys them instantly. Note: this only works if it's on a roof that can be destroyed. Some roofs are harder than others. Of course if you're using a grenade, it's still one point of armor shredded even if you don't kill it. Also, I find it hilarious that the Gas Grenade I got from the Proving Ground actually shreds armor.

I'm playing on commander difficulty and I managed to get in sight of one objective after 5 turns of double moving and grappling with spider suits and finished the mission on the final turn... that poo poo is a little nuts.

Oh yeah I had no worries, only that they'd scuttle off to kill civilians, but they went straight for me and got blasted. That's why you bring TWO Grenadiers! Edit:  Phew, thanks for taking the overwatch, civ. Now I can take this mec down no problem (hopefully). Crosspeice fucked around with this message at 01:42 on Feb 6, 2016 |

It's kinda disappointing that none of the battle music is as good as Vigilo Confido or Snap Shot from the first game.

Customising your soldiers to how you like them feels like playing Barbie doll, only with a high chance you'll have those dolls horrifically melted in the near future.
