gently caress Stargate, I want a B.P.R.D. mod now!

If we're talking dream total conversions, I would kill for a Liberal Crime Squad TC. Cell management, random maps, etc - it could happen. :allears:

Jake Solomon's personality

The Eurogamer video with Jake and the Long War guy from today is a better (and shorter!) explanation of why they wanted the Long War people involved.

"The problems of course are you just gotta be sure that you're ready technically for that, so... Me being the creative director, that's not really my loving problem so, you know, I was all 'let's do it!' 'I'm all for this!' you know?" :xcom:


Jake Solomon really is a fantastic face for this game, and for game development in general. I look forward to seeing what things he brings us, even beyond XCOM. :allears:

I've been really impressed with the procGen'd maps - watching Beagle, I keep forgetting that the entire map isn't handmade but instead pieced together from sections.

Is Beagle going to package his .ini change into a mod? I really liked some of what I saw during yesterday's modded play - pectoids hanging way back from the front line, Advent soldiers hugging good cover, grenades not being the win-all tools they are now.

The Fig campaign for Julian Gallop's Pheonix Point is open (might only be for 'fig backstage' whatever that is. apparently I'm a member.)
https://www.fig.co/campaigns/phoenix-point

Looks very Terror From the Deep and very cool. I like the Fallout-style body part targeting.
Asking $500K, it'll probably hit that in 24hrs easily.

For those of you that couldn't view this back when it was "backstage only," the campaign is finally up. RockPaperShotgun has an article/interview with Gollop as well.

Less than 48 hours left on the Phoenix Point Fig campaign.

Here's a video of Julian Gollop narrating a boss fight:

I'm curious if we will see a Terror from the Deep from Firaxis (despite the XCOM2 ending teaser) given that 1) Jake Solomon has spoken against the idea in the past, and 2) Julian Gollop's Phoenix Point just got funded (even if the "undersea missions" stretch goal hasn't been achieved yet :( )

It's a shame because underwater settings are loving awesome when not saddled with horrific swimming mechanics, and great for invoking an alien feel to the world.

Agreed.

You hear that, Strategy First? Give us Submarine Titans on Steam! :argh:

Rude. Submarine Titans remains a fun game to this day. :colbert:
