VALKYRIA PORTS WHEN?

Give me .ini edits so i can make the MAGNIFICENT DESIGN go away, please i can't take it any longer

...

death to all sneks

What does Advent Strength do? How do I reduce it?

I'm going to do it. I'm going to edit my squad size in the .ini. Wish me luck.

>Want to play Xcom2
>Get bored even with 500 mods because i've already beaten the game like 50 times
>Don't want to play Long War 2 because i hate MAGNIFICENT DESING and pretending that Xcom is a stealth game
Expansion when?

>11 turns
>37 enemies
damn

Reminder that Swords are Useful.

Does anybody else have like 30 second hangups on autosaves in EW? The only way I can fix it is to launch steam in offline mode, which is a pain.

hopefully never

I had the same problem on the pirated version

mega.nz/#!z98xBASR!acxZvlDwIMYBcqOIJ2xSjvFG5Alv23c9YAw0lzjJ_Go

how easy does this make the original long war?

14th for Battlefield 1 weapons/armor when?

Same, I've just gone back to LW1 because I haven't done a full 1.0 campaign yet.

now i can't even be demeaning to you you smug faggot i just

I noticed Beagle was using weapon mods in his LW playthrough - did he tweak these to be compatible with LW? The sheet says they need to be fixed to allow 3 attachments.

Timers are at 99.

>you don't want sickass officers cap and scouting uniform

I like the Federation armors from MP: Corruption.

So does setting my haven staff to hidden reduce Advent strength or just maintain it until they move to other regions?

Secondary weapons in Long War 2 need to confer the abilities to use them by being equipped.

All classes should have access to more if not all secondary weapons in Long War 2.

okay fine it looks decent

Underwater rebel bases when?

More Titanfall ports when? I want more tight female asses

I guess so, also most of SMG mods on the workshop still have rifle stats, I guess that he edited that too

Ah, the bodysuit user from a few threads ago?

God speed.

A shinobi with a holotargeter would be amazing.

Oh damn.

Well it's no capnbubs but this what I've edited the goggles to look like.

I've also enabled face props for those anons that wanted them.

That's pretty as hell, good job.

We need more stealth suits

Thank you very much. The helmets have been really comfy to play with thus far and those new lenses+props are going to make them absolutely perfect.

DAMN IT FISHER

You don't see snak- Oh wait no that's just Sam fisher.

Puts stronger ayys on the field. I don't know, liberate.

are you uncle gunman?
if so can you do the same thing to the mw helmets?

What are you talking about?

That's fantastic, user.

I wish Valkyria Chronicles had an anime.
And a sequel.
And a trilogy.

user, are you okay?

what are some good cammo/color set up?

fuck these alien hallucinations

how the hell would the game have that many sectopods spawn? the most I had in a mission during any of my lengthy penis campaigns was like 3 or 4

I admit, I giggled.

user...

Are we doing the thing where we're pretending the VC anime doesn't exist because it was so bad... or do you not know the bad news?

Why don't we just skip all the bullshit and start porting Nier outfits?

Depends on the starting region: like desert camo for Africa or snow camo for Siberia

Because Titanfall gear is best of both worlds.

the only point where brick camo mattered

Yeah I'll go back and redo them like this, or the shadow company ones at least.

>mfw i actually didn't see snake until you said that

probably because you were busy ogling the man

that means the camo is actually working properly for once

Looks great, user.

Congratz user, that means you're not gay.

based

>not being attracted to naked snake who later becomes big boss
are you actually gay?

Where's the dick?

on the wall

that's a trap though so that user is pretty gay

So who's the least shit

Jap. Just look at that movement.

s-she's fast!

world war 1 was such a stupid war honestly

>sir how should we attack them?
>bomb them for 5 minutes, blow this loud as fuck whistle, then walk at them maybe jog if feeling energetic
>like the last 300 times we attack then...
>yes they will never suspect it :3

Depends on the class you need.

What do you need? The 16 mobility one could be a scout shinobi. The 5 health one could be a Specialist of some kind, using gremlin ranged abilities. The top one could be an Arc Thrower Assault, but the mobility is one too low for me.

it's because those "stupid tactics" rendered every way man had previously fought war useless

If ANY method thought up to at that point had been used against trenche lines, they were crushed horribly

hell in the end a big contributor to the ending of the war was a new form of warfare being invented that would define the next war 30 years later

it was a stupid war but it was so bloody because it turns out white people got just a little bit too good at killing eachother; I don't think any other conflict comes close to the first two world wars and their death toll.

remind me never to fuck with white people

what said

WW1 was the end of the massed army and line tactics, and that was the way man fought for the last 3,000 years

Generals back then didnt know what the fuck to do to break the stalemate because of how powerful weapons have gotten compare to the previous wars.
They threw millions of lives away in trial and error. Pretty fucked up.

I went with the Jap

Can anyone give me a rundown on what these stats mean and the base stats for every soldier? I can't seem to find explanations and base numbers

>100% shot
>Grazed

I'm honestly feeling similar to how Julian was when he discovered the feeling of being pissed off. Thanks lump!

Always get negative dodge for that glorious increased chance to get crit. Same thing with defense for that increased chance to get hit !

I would get Ala as specialist/ranger/grenadier, Sofya as a gunner and Midori as shinobi or assault.

Post Long Dong death tolls

Aim - Defense - Health - Mobility - Will - Hack - Dodge

The "normal" stats are something like this

65 - 0 - 4 - 12 - 30 - 10

the values have individual "points" that are distributed at random

From left to right, Accuracy, Defense, Health, Movement, Will, Hacking and Dodge.
Defense is just added defense while in cover, Dodge adds a chance to roll a graze instead of a full damage hit; Will determines chance of psi abilities affecting you or accuracy of landing them on enemies.

white people these days are fat and happy

they don't have the nuts to do what they used to

nah, all the little shit after WW2 proves that they can still do some nasty shit if incited

hair trigger works on suppression reaction shots right?

Does anyone else nickname all of their soldiers Peace Walker style?

Basically characteristic/adjective + animal name

I give them either random shit i think up or something situational

Take this guy for instance, ill post why he got his title in a sec, and /xcg/ sort of named him not me i guess

and here's why vlad is a "hero"

In Soviet Russia, Dog pound you!

Tactically.

most of my character pool is made up of memorable soldiers from past EW/LW campaigns or remakes of other video game characters

There are any penalities for killing civilians?

that's some Apocalypse Now shit user, don't do this to me

I also want know...

no

I don't even feel bad killing them anymore after all the times they've broken my concealment by sitting in retarded positions

Who at XCOM is responsible for naming ops?

>got a mission to sabotage a monument
give me your best xcom terrorists

Wakaliwood voice mod WHEN

youtube.com/watch?v=KEoGrbKAyKE

a fucking faggot that's who

I'm a big fan of primary 29 secondary 42 with finnish armor camo pattern

>putting links in spoilers
die

remember to keep someone next to the statue while you kill civilians at the end of the mission, avent can still send reinforcements

>killing ayy sympathizers
>penalties
