XCOM General - /xcg/

...

Look at this snake

>July 2016
Ayys sent a terror mission to Russia, maxing it out. One day after, council mission in Russia. Thanks council.

Also I didn't know that seekers will cloak, flank the VIP and shoot him. Almost cost me the mission.

>>seekers will cloak, flank the VIP and shoot him.

Their AI was improved a bit but I have yet to see them attack the VIP like that.

lol

>had a dream where I was playing XCom and breaking LoS
I fucking hate you all

I hadn't seen it either until that mission, so I assume it just picked from all flanked targets and unluckily it rolled the VIP. Would've been a loss if the entire team wasn't overwatching, I usually don't even bring battle scanners.

But it sounds like you were winning, something I doubt you have experienced while you were awake. So really, you should thank us.

>>playing XCom and breaking LoS

You are on the right track.

Keep going.

>>it just picked from all flanked targets and unluckily it rolled the VIP.

If I had to make a guess. That would be it.

I'll keep this in mind for the future

Veeky Forums will be playing soon with our rep Snaketits in the offense

Oh snap, get in here

Multiple suppressions actually make for quite a pretty lightshow

>I usually don't even bring battle scanners

>tfw avatar project is 2 bars from finishing, I need to go from brazil, to aus, to indonesia
>tfw only have enough intel if I build radio towers

Fucking black site only knocked the avatar project down by 1

It's that time already?

>snektits to git gud
I know git gud is technically /dsg/, but I'm chalking this up to /xcg/

...

Can GTS projects be modified in the ini files? If so, where? I want to make Squad Size 1 and 2 grant 2 soldier slots each.

They're so limited and unwieldy compared to motion trackers. I use the perk midgame but the item isn't worth it and I just go without them until I have highrank scouts/engis.

Just get the LW toolbox and modify the squad sizes there.

this is why I miss Mectoids

I don't want to change the starting squad size, though, just the max squad size. Is there any way to do that?

It's probably possible, i don't know how though. But there are other mods that increase squad sizes, maybe look into them.

The number of pips below a Blacksite map icon shows how many Avatar bars it's responsible for.

>zerker queen wanders in while my troops are spread out and my SPARK severely damaged
>go for a Rupture shot as my first move
>repeater procs

any good LPs to showcase the cooler mods like Merc Plasma, SPec Ops classes, Playble aliens etc. I'm on a toaster and need some one to live vicariously through

Battleborn skins/costumes when?!

Please no.

about the same time some one ports Evolve monsters as Enemies, either way I'd love the designs to not be wasted

Aren't there, like, two well-designed characters in the entire game?

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex First Assault Online skins when?

I'm a sucker for cyberpunk. Also,

Deadspace R.I.G when?
Crysis Nanosuit when?
Rainbow Six Siege stuff when?
DOOM when?

So much potential, so few modders.

Depends on who you ask but some Battleborn do fit with some of the XCOM classes.

Evolve monsters would be quite an interesting addition.

You know you want it.

Hey, at least we're getting that Neptunia stuff!

Really?

...

...

For a second there i thought those taliban letters said boypucci

Sounds like you don't have your head in the game user, purge the ayys.

She's just mad because snek tits > bitch tits

Better a boypussy than a filthy disgusting snake scum one.

I remember when that mod came out. I was one of the co creators of the advent ascension mod and the main creator always had a rivalry with that mod.

>google advent Ascension
>mfw it's the one with the power ranger colored advent

Oh man, i'm so sorry

We were the first power ranger mod to come out. I thought at the time it was cool but the main creator ignored all my cooler ideaa like a lich commander and other stuff

What the actual fuck.

>what's over here...
>OH SHIT

...

No wonder why they used that in the trailers.

That looks nice. From where is that from.

Some openxcom modder. I think other people are free to use them, so you can already find similar ships in mods being udpated like PirateZ.

Having trouble finding it right now, since I think it's a mod forum thread.

>Veteran

nice i can relate to this

Interesting to know.

W-What about the Airgame?!

...

>>Deadspace R.I.G when?

Now that's a thing I want to see in the specialist.

Bonus points if the Gremlin gets replaced by Mei's Ice drone.

Payday 2 rips when? I want at least one of my guys wearing those bomb suits that Skulldozers have.

couple threads ago i saw someone post a soldier with a miniskirt and suit/tie combo.

Which mod adds civilian clothing?

>Move up four tiles to flank
>activate a pod
It's fine I'm almost finished with this pod anyway
>Move literally two tiles to get a better shot at an ayy
>Activate another pod
>Turns out a thin man from that pod was standing in a doorway that was kept out of my los by a pillar for the whole time

Missing the halloween skin already?

it me

Goku

I'm guessing you mean this? The booty shorts come with Anarchy's Children. The top is EXALT clothing from the EU/EW port mods.

Thanks, found it
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=696566464&searchtext=eu/ew

yes

Honestly I'd prefer the Hunters first- especially considering that they have good lines, cool weapons, and jetpacks WHERE'S MY FUCKING ARCHANGEL ARMOR JAKE, and I can't imagine porting the monsters being easy. I mean you'd need specific rigging to make them move right, not counting the balance and size you'd have to give them. Just imagining kraken gives me floater flashbacks.

>perma high ground and flight defense bonus
>can't be hacked
>out of range of heavy ordnance
>can regen armor if he fucks off and eat a civilian
>lightning strikes is an AOE so it laughs at cover/smoke
>has his own cover removal tool

They'd be either disappointingly easy or downright magnificents.

Valkyria Chronicles mod when?

This is saddening in its relative accuracy

this

you can't even complain

you can put that image where the thread is and get the same amount of relative content per hour

You didn't mention the biggest problem for /xcg/ though.

What if you made the monsters work as rulers do

I-is that alien supposed to be so erotic

hahaha, one day we will post this image and the thread will be alive and we'll laugh laugh remembering the old times when we were dead.

Also the monsters would be very much shrunken down, lest the cover half the map with their bulk

Nonsense, make them THICCER

Yeah maybe I can fit it in somewhere. Just hasn't been as big of a talking point lately

Well that is the point. I even erased people from the original template to make it feel emptier.

That's the hope

...

Someone improve this for me

Why? It's perfect.

In what ways do you want it improved? Looks fine to me.

>"This is Central, I'm receiving you...what do you mean you think you saw a snake? What the hell does that have to do with anything?"

What did he mean by this?

Real answer is it's a snakeman reference

>The number of aliens allowed in each pod is directly dependent upon current research points:
>Small (Research > 0): 2-4 aliens per pod
>Medium (Research > 120): 3-6 aliens per pod
>Large (Research > 240): 4-8 aliens per pod

Didn't know Large is a thing but..wew

>page 10
>tfw sunday and everything is dead

When PC gets 2 and 3

all my rookies are upgrading to weapons and randoming them tends to yield assaults, someone send infantry, thanks

>tfw waiting for new armor port mods

ayylmao

Good god.

I'm finally done with these guys if that counts.
