I wish there was a button to add the mission name. It's in the random pool but seems oddly rare. Man I was using a lot of the same dudes last night

Finished the game tonight, here's my last dumb mission posters....for now. Arizonabot was killed...but it's a SPARK so obviously I just rebuilt it. That's Jane Kelly in the grey and orange skeleton getup, by the way. I'm thinkin about rebuilding my character pool and reshuffling mods and playing through again in about a week or two. Something bugged out on this run and the alien rulers never appeared so that bugs me.

Or you guys with all the crashes playing without the alternate mod launcher or what? I just finished a campaign with 240+ active mods and got maybe one or two crashes a night maximum, all during battle so the autosave was like a turn ago at most. Seriously, use it: https://github.com/X2CommunityCore/xcom2-launcher

Ravenfood posted:Amazing. I never thought to try using the ally switch ability on the turrets. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1130867259 is a real fun mod that lets you just throw turrets wherever you need one but I'm sure it's unbalanced as gently caress. Especially since the turret's turn starts after you throw it, so it's kind of a "get two more shots free" card. But again, it's fun.

So how is it this game has resources for psychic powers, fire, poison, freezing, lightning, etc and I have yet to see like a spellcaster class made? There's a necromancer one based on summoning zombies and stuff but it's still sadly fairly buggy right now. I could also totally go for electric poo poo in this game. Give me some taser rounds and some gun that shoots lightning

So like are all the mods hosed now and need updated or how does it work? I was playing around with the character pool post-patch and it seemed to be fine, but I'm sure that's not exactly the same.

That'd be cool if you had to follow some light rules of engagement like the police quest games - like you can't use deadly force until they threaten you or something. Still want Ghostbusters XCOM and Stargate XCOM, drat it.

I'm having a really obnoxious issue that has possible ended my current campain. yes, I am playing with an assload of mods and that's probably how this happened, but it seems like this should be fixable. I am being hunted by the UFO, and it triggers an avenger defense mission. First time I did this, I guess one of my map mods bugged out and made it so the distruptor never spawned, and the mission is therefore unwinnable. So I go OK fine, disable map mods and try loading it up again, now every time I try to launch a new avenger defense I get stuck at a screen like this: poo poo I have tried: using console commands to win the mission. using the one that ends the mission makes for a campaign failure since it counts as losing an avenger defense. using the one that is supposed to complete the "defense" objective did nothing? various combos of map mods activated/not activated making the UFO down me on other continents (at best this might give me a different stuck image like above) I went and did a facility mission just to make sure other missions still worked (it did) and then let it catch me again and still got the same issue. verifying game cache So yeah I guess my avenger defense missions are hosed somehow, thus loving my entire campaign? Anyone had an issue like this? Anything I can do? edit: so I let it load up to this screen again and then hit the endbattle xcomwins true thing and uh...somehow that worked this time? It ended the mission and not the campaign, at least? Guess I'll see how it plays out from here. Light Gun Man fucked around with this message at 04:27 on Nov 17, 2017 |

Richards classes splits em into a tech and medic class and they are both good. Medics get fuckin healing darts that are animated as your medic just shooting a friendly with thier normal gun, which heals them. It's great. Somehow (probably hack plus) my tech Dr Robotnik has like over 500 hack now and is just insane. Both of those classes learn abilities that let them give more actions to others, so they definitely feel very "support" in a good way.

Firstborn posted:Looked it up real quick... So they have Assassin, Demo, Gunner, Mage, Marksman, Medic, Raider, Rifleman, Scout, Survivalist, SWAT, and Technician. Seems like a lot. Surely Raider/Scout/SWAT/Survivalist is a lot of overlap of (what I think) is a bunch of shotgun dudes! I kind of want to give it a shot. I suggest the version with the long war 2 subweapons, since that throws in Arc Blasters. I'm playing with that and the various mods that allow knocking out and kidnapping enemy soldiers (plus MOCX for a good reason to do it). My SWAT units are pretty much specialized for capturing MOCX, it's fun, when it works (I don't think I fully understand the knockout/fulton mechanics yet). They have a bunch of stun options which is also useful for just removing troublesome enemies from the field for a few turns. Early on I encountered a MOCX unit with Proto Man (from my character pool, I believe MOCX can pull anyone listed as a potential Dark VIP), wiped his squad and knocked him out and fulton'd him. He joined up with XCOM and has been a badass unit ever since. Hell yeah emergent narrative. Kinda makes me want to make a whole pool of Dark VIP villains just for this purpose. Hilariously, MOCX also generates anti-XCOM propaganda posters memorializing the MOCX squads you kill, and they made one for Proto Man even though I captured him.

Warlock is the most boring baby bitch and I kinda hate him. On my current run I happened to end up killing him last and he didn't even get scared or anything that he was the only one left, it sucked. Kill him first. The other two at least say interesting stuff sometimes. poo poo, I'd recruit the hunter if I could.

In my current game I have metal over flesh and spark classes enabled. I also have the loot mod. One of my sparks is equipped with a BIT that gives them three usages of "superior overclock" which basically just gives them like three more moves instantly. It's also got the ability to take free shots at anything that comes near it. So a lot of enemy groups I just move that one up, hit it with a heavy weapon, move closer, spend remaining actions on extra shots, then murder them all next turn with reaction fire. also the heavy weapon is usually The Frightenator which basically sends nearly all biological enemies in panic so they'll all waste a turn / shoot at each other too!

Yeah the series of mods that interact for capturing enemy units are great. Install MOCX and make a character pool full of villains set as dark vip and attempt to capture ones you like. Or just grab randos. Only thing that sucks is Richard's classes SWAT dudes have a stun thrower that doesn't count as legal stuns for Fulton purposes. Technician's gremlin stun works though. Using all those also adds a later where MOCX has the default classes you can't get without reneabling via ini so you can treat MOCX encounters like "hmm I don't have a vanilla ranger yet..." edit: sounds like LW2 Secondaries updated and maybe fixed this stun issue for arc throwers!

As long as you use the Alternative Mod Launcher you can go pretty hog wild with mods. I just recentely finished up a game with like 350+ mods going. Load times may suffer, but they seem to do that as campaign length drags on anyway. edit: here's a quick export of stuff I was playing with. Not everything worked 100% or completely bug free but it was a good time and successfully finished the game. https://pastebin.com/34Wanvvu Light Gun Man fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Dec 26, 2017 |

I won my current game before the dark event that enables MOCX Coilguns fired, so I'm not sure if XCOM gets to recover and use them there. You can indeed recover coilguns from MOCX units sometimes, it's the only way my last game had them. Neat guns. There is a cosmetic lasers mods but it kinda stopped working for me at some point so ?? Someone needs to remake Xskin, that mod ruled.
