I was sold when I saw that this has an Endless Mode. I haven't done anything but play the tutorial so far, but even so I feel I can already say that I'm liking this a lot. By the way, the game has three different colorblind modes. Also, it's an absolutely massive 10% off on both GOG and Steam right now.

Hank Morgan posted:I think the most overpowered character ability/augment combo I got playing this game was Internationale's remote hacking and the augment that gave you extra movement points whenever you hacked something. I was zipping across entire levels like I had wheels on. Also, I'm glad that I started out on Beginner, because I'm definitely making beginner mistakes here.

Pierson posted:I just finished the campaign on beginner and is that it? Obviously knocking it up to experienced and above will make the experience last longer and Endless mode exists but the campaign storyline is really a half-dozen missions and done as the AI takes over? The only things that stuck out to me after I'd finished my first campaign were that Monst3r is dumb and needs to shut up and that the ending is a bit annoying because I couldn't see an option to not do the obviously stupid thing and I didn't care enough to feel much of an emotional impact, just slight irritation that I was unable to get a better result. Also, I can't help but compare this to Jagged Alliance 2 on some level, and I wish I could care about Invisible Inc.'s agents the same way I do for my mercs, but that's not happening. Still going to have a lot of fun with this. I haven't even gotten around to trying out my new unlocks or loving around with the million campaign settings and I already feel like I got my money's worth.

Demiurge4 posted:Voice acting would go a long way to give the characters some life. Just basic chatter and a one liner for various actions would be fine. As it is they're just a portrait and a cybernetic passive.

Also, this game loves Internationale at least as much as I do and keeps handing me this:

This could have gone really wrong really fast, but when the game gives you a turret placed like that, you just gotta go for it.

Well, I can see how a disguise ability would be very hard to balance, at least, so that wouldn't surprise me. I think my personal favorite is always going to be Internationale. Not only can she save a pretty solid amount of AP per turn by remotely grabbing power, uncovering cameras and stuff early has just been a huge help a lot of the time. stiknork posted:hey me and another designer (also my boss) are gonna play a super hard mode and die a lot and give out game keys if you guys wanna check it out http://www.twitch.tv/kleientertainment Did the P ever get fixed?

alarumklok posted:Yeah, even if they did it like Monaco with limited number of exposures before it expired I'm having a hard time seeing it make sense in game or be even remotely balanced. She should at least start with some holo cover or something though. Not saying that's what Prism should have been, but it's something that the agent roster doesn't really cover, unless you count assault and cold-blooded murder. Also: All 4 guards in the big room are on simple patrols that will lead them back into it the turn after they leave it. They also patrol in pairs. Not pictured: Dr. Xu's lack of any kind of weapon, Incognita not having Wisp, the second guard patrolling the level exit, me abandoning all hope.

Yeah, my first attempt at experienced was kind of disastrous as well. Relearning how to play with un-upgraded agents while adapting to the higher difficulty was pretty rough, I was overreaching all the time.GreyjoyBastard posted:Distract one pair and quite probably mug it, run through and or distract the other pair. Alternatively, sit on the first pair until your tasers recharge. I really wanted those augment slots, but that was not going to happen there, or at least only with a lot of luck.

^^^^ That owns.Fangz posted:Are there alternative endings with different difficulty levels? Also, I tried to see if there's a secret ending if you abort the final mission right before uploading Incognita. There isn't, but at least the game still treated it as a win. Also, is this just randomness sometimes not seeming random or are some agents way less likely to appear in holding cells than others? I've never seen Prism in one, but I've gotten at least one out of Decker, Shalem and Internationale in every game so far. Edit: And just by the way, I gave Nika a TAG Pistol during my last run and it's pretty good. Apart from tagging being useful, it basically allowed me to convert 1 Power into 3 AP as long as there was an untagged guard in sight.

RoboCicero posted:Yeah, he straight up disables them. You also can't hack them while they're rebooting, so don't be the guy who accidentally spends two turns with Xu hunched against a fabricator. stiknork posted:I think we're going to post about this officially at some point, but if we added some additional modes to the game (think Time Attack or Endless) is there anything that people would be super into?
