You can use the LW Toolbox mod to seamlessly change the squad cap in game. I mentioned to jade there was a mod that gives EXP to soldiers that don't go on missions so that more people can die and the A-team's death won't be a game ruining scenario but he's very confident that things will turn out A-OK

No, it works fine. What needs to be fixed is soldier customization randomizing every time new armor is equipped.

About Bradford's gun, is it a legit thing to have two scopes on the top of a gun? Or is it a scope > laser sight kind of thing because that looks impossible to use or not worth it.

WOW, thanks for telling me I wasn't crazy, Guava. I always thought I could put extraction points on soldiers but then when I've been playing recently I couldn't do that. That's loving lame, I need a mod to fix that, no reason for that to have been 'patched.'

XCOM 2 is basically the game Kenny was playing in that South Park episode where Heaven's angels needed him to lead them into battle. You are Kenny. Engage in the most epic fight too good to be seen.

Crosspeice posted:We need a DLC where Tygan joins in on a mission as a badass psionic user. Jade was streaming Shen's Last Gift one night and someone brought up Tygan being potentially the star of a DLC. My response was: "Tygan should show up on a mission in a doctor octopus like exo suit or that thing out of the Alien movie and be like 'COMMANDER! I COULD NOT HAVE PREDICTED HOW BADASS I AM, IT IS INTRIGUING." e. Tygan vs. Vahlen in a psionic duel would kind of make the year for me though.

One thing to keep in mind about enemy scattering when you overwatch them, cover still applies, if they are running along it. I only discovered this after someone mentioned it in the Xcom thread and finally got Perfect Information mod to work. Speaking of starting right next to aliens who spot you, that's been happening ever since Shen's Last Gift. I don't think it's mods. I'm pretty sure that's a fine example of 'Fix your game, Jake.'

Gunslinger snipers are the answer to the strongest enemies in the game to be honest.

You can install Commander's Choice mod to change their class at Squaddie. There are console commands too but it will reset their rank.

Jade lives only to be disappointed and suffer. Also make two gunslingers and ignore sniping because the revolvers have more class and get useful earlier. Unless a certain thing happens that happened to Jade during a stream, then you can use rifles.

A mod does in fact exist that shows you what the hacks are and your chance just from the hack tooltip on the target.

Nothing is broken, except what Jake needs to fix, like floating Advent Officer puppet that acts as full cover.

I also hate the seeded RNG nature of everything about this game. Hacking always bugs me because your roll is decided before you even look at it and the chances are superfluous. There's just something wrong with not technically being the one to throw the dice.

I used to say they only have the RNG set up the way they do primarily so overwatches would actually hit multiple enemies and not everyone just shooting something the second it is the first one in line of sight and wasting ammo or blowing a trap meant for multiple guys. But then a mod came out that let you set up overwatch cones to effectively watch for certain guys doing things and also there's a custom class mod that targets specific guys when they do act so maybe Jake was just lazy

The point is that the player is not technically throwing the dice and enjoying good fortune or ruing bad luck, it takes away the feeling of making real decisions and it's really just a "ok, am I going to be screwed doing this?" which, yes, would still be a question, but it wouldn't be the only question. You can at least feel like it's fair when you get the chance to make the move and see how it turns out, how to work with it, instead of it changing at the whim or being decided in advance. I know that combat is handled in the same way but variables like cover, threat of revealing more, and the AI making some very stupid decisions (especially in this LP so far) can balance the scales very well. In the case of hacking, the consequence of failure is severe enough (potentially campaign ruining early on) that only safe plot hacks will be made. I 100% acknowledge this is minor but it bugs the hell out of me and always will. Actions should be calculated the moment they are taken. Spudd posted:Does Blademaster buff the damage of a certain ability in the not-sword sword you get later? There's a mod that fixed the damage not being added when you threw it.
