Gridlocked posted:Uugughghghhg Alien Hunters DLC on, but it was so bad. Also not going to use the Long War Team's mods Long War is bad and you should feel bad for suggesting it. And honestly, I'm not going to top NAPTIME already in your stream character set.

Crosspeice posted:Bradford's gun is definitely something, as we'll soon see. It's pretty cool to see all the story set up after beating the game so many times. The Tutorial is alright, especially compared to the first game's one. It's also good you're playing Commander, cause it means you can actually use Sword Rangers and they're not mediocre unlike Legendary. Actually, I'm trying to remember if my Sword Rangers were mediocre even on Commander. Hey now, there are fresh rookie corpses out there.

Kurieg posted:One thing that irks me about the opening cutscene is that they apparently remove an implant in the base of your skull through your nose, according to the camera work. pretty sure that the whole first game is black bars now. Also unconciousness is a giant pain. I can stop people bleeding to death, but can't wake people up?! Also, I love how no-one is in remotely medical gear while surgerying.

Psi zombies really should get an action or two when they wake up. Though maybe that'd make Sectoids too dangerous for new players. Phantom is a good way to ruin perfectly good over-watch parties. And means you are not as good at HANZO STEEL as you otherwise could be.

Otherwise known as the World Of Warcraft style of dice rolling. So it is essentially crit - hit - miss off a d100. Fix your game, Jake.

In general you can do something about your lovely to hit chances. There is nothing you can do to fix your hack chances. Also "To prevent savescumming" is a terrible excuse for a design decision. Just accept that some people want to play the single player game they bought their way already.

Brainamp posted:The game's already rolled a 67, 48, 92, and 45 ahead of you taking your soldier's actions. This is where you can take advantage of it by save-scumming to change the order in which you use those four numbers. Except it's not random. Because you can load and put the specific numbers in a different spot. A Random number is one that you cannot know before pressing the button. If it's pre-rolled and your next 4 actions have their numbers assigned, even if you load, it is not random. You have some idea what the numbers are. The simplest way around this is, even with a psuedo-random number generator, to move a number of steps down the list based on the decimal of a second (so the .059 of 12.059s. Even if you only count to hundredths of a second, no human is so precise as to be able to hit the button at the exact same time except via chance. tl;dr fix your game, Jake!

Kaboom Dragoon posted:I prefer doing pseudo/'soft' ironman, where all deaths are final and I just roll with it because I never trust an XCOM game not to screw up on me. Unless it's a character I made based on someone I know, in which case I roll that back because oh god I'm so sorry why is there so much blood I need to make that not happen. I do this because sometimes games break.And it's nice to only lose minutes of progress instead of all of it when it happens.

AlanFrost posted:To clarify, that method does rely on the Retroactive AWC mod. I was trying to say that if you have Retroactive AWC mod, there is a way to get the AWC skill without leveling up (if the soldier is at or above their needed rank). Therefore, a soldier reaching max rank does not "lose their skill forever" if you have Retroactive AWC mod and build the AWC after the soldier reaches max rank. I... can't imagine why you would have a max rank soldier, but no AWC though. My first playthrough I had a Colonel before I got the AWC. I had other things to spend my supplies on.

GuavaMoment posted:The joke might go over people's heads since we say it so often but 99% of every "fix your game, Jake" is tongue-in-cheek. I've personally never encountered a game breaking bug, or other serious flaw. The tiny, somewhat humorous odd mistakes are plentiful though, mostly harmless, and kind of give the game some charm. XCOM is like goat simulator - they'll fix the game breaking bugs, but leave everything else in Jade was also one of the people to find out what happens when you poison a certain bulky alien. Sometimes they are more serious bugs than others.

Xenoborg posted:I'm surprised you are both so into countering the breakthrough dark events. They, like all (almost all?) other sources of avatar, are completely removable later. That combined with being able to run down the clock, I consider the breakthroughs a free space to counter something else. The key word is LATER. I exdpect at some point Jade will 'show off' the clock. Keeping the clock low means you're more able to deal with other things the game throws at you. And kind of set the pace. if it goes high, the clock sets the pace which can lose you the game. Plus only the clock can actually game over you. Everything else just slows you down.

CJacobs posted:Sure, but overcorrecting balance issues seems to be the main aim of XCOM 2's development. If something was too easy, now it's too hard. If something was too forgiving, now it's too punishing. imo they haven't found a good middle ground in almost anything that has changed since the game came out. eg: the insane action economy demands of Lord Snakeman.

Elth posted:Seeing how most of the aliens are simply cloned en masse, presumably from a master copy that suits that particular role, the need for differing genders for reproductive purposes seems moot. And maybe the aliens kept a viable breeding host around for reasons - possibly research or cloning improvements. And their ship crashed also for reasons.
