well if this is supposed to be more blood thirsty and more in line with UFO Defense maybe I might get a chance to make a more dressed up entry but for now what I sent should be more than enough :)

For those of you wondering about the character pool, as of this post i am 71 entries in and i swear that 50% of you picked the laid back attitude. and about 40% of you picked twitchy. So i am concluding that goons are either too lazy to worry about anything, or anxious as gently caress about everything.

Well I was thinking either Intense or Twitchy, which one is more appropriate for a "could snap and go Joker at any minute"? Because that's what I was building the character based off. If Twitchy works than keep it but if one of the other personalities is better suited for that then feel free to change it :)

hmm, so I guess Intense would be more what I was looking for

are we still stuck with only 4 squadmates, upgradeable to 6? It will never be like original XCOM until we can fill the Skyranger with a full platoon again :colbert:

what's with the haikus? Is it something I missed from the previous XCOM?

were people really "upset" that we were doing 24-style interrogations so that we could get Plasma credits? I'm pretty sure Vahlen is doing exactly what they were doing in the original XCOM, it's just that now we have the technology for voice acting.

I don't know about you but I'm willing to suspend some ethics if it means I have a chance of not being destroyed whenever a Berserker or a Chrysalid gets within touching distance

I eagerly await my soldier's appearance now, just because I'm curious how Jade will pronounce her name :allears:

I was kinda hoping Siobhan would end up being a Ranger, but being a Grenadier suits her just fine. And yes she is everything I hoped she would be, with all the spikes and the face paint :allears:

Also everyone else covered the pronunciation, but she's a Scot so it's spelt the Gaelic way. Maybe next I'll make a Hamish to accompany her :v:

out of curiosity when it comes to soldiers in a pool will they always turn out with the same stats/roles/etc?

man I just bought this because of this LP (and because I had a GMG coupon and it was one sale, bonus) but I have to say that the base management feels really strange in comparison to EW, almost like I'm going to have to
"lose" once to really get a handle on the game. Kinda like UFO Defense :v: it's ok if you lose your first time through

Triple the views, easier to find where I left off when I fall asleep partway.

(I use LP as a sleeping aid; don't worry, Jade, you're not boring)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who watches LPs when going to sleep (usually it's games I've played before but these days anything goes)

Also either option works (any of the three options at this point)

Shredder feels appropriately Mad Max. That was what I was trying to go with when I wrote her up :)

The Redblacks is my favorite sports team name ever. "Hey uhhh what do we name ourselves I've got no good ideas" "Hmmm, well what are our team colors" "YOU'RE A GENIUS"

there's plenty of that already in SA though, people talk poo poo about anime outside of ADTRW, people talk poo poo about firearms people outside of TFR, people talk poo poo about LPers and watchers outside of Let's Play.

People who don't like Prequel make everyone else know about it, etc.

But then the video might just get flagged for something completely different. Like the sound of the wind. Of course some corporate prick claims they own the rights to it. That happened in the EW LP,from what I remember.

definitely led to a very special episode though
