REMINDER TO RETURNING /xcg/ ANONS THAT SNEAKING IN LW2 IS DEAD

>not stealing all the best stuff from other games
What r u? Stupid?

An ADVENT defector isn't a traitor, they're an escaped slave.

Ask if stealth missions are reduced

ENERGY
FUCKING
SWORDS

I bet they will be even better on Stalkers. Imagine them getting 5 actions, Lightning Hands, move and shoot, move and shoot, then Face Off.

WE NOD NOW

IN KANE WE TRUST

PEACE THROUGH POWER

DOWN WITH THE GDI

>knowledge of XCOM operations
The Chosen will personally come fuck your shit up when that fills up, right?

There's still 11 Thursdays till the game release.
H-he could do it right?

It's a strange feeling, to be longing for the end of summer.

What went wrong?

Everything.

t. cuck

Sneks are cute.

I wonder what the gold event the geoscape is

>yfw oculus skinship sessions with your bond level 3 psi waifu

So are we only going to get one hero class per faction per campaign or can we get six cheeki breekis?

...

Ethereals not learning how to fix their shit biology, although that's been the case since the very beginning of the series.

I want to thank Jake and shake his hand.

sexy trenchcoat

So do the Reapers get any other weapons other than their SVD-looking rifle?

Hopefully six cheeki breekis. Heroes for some select story missions is fun, but I need need classes.

...

>only article up right now is PCGamers

Hurry the fuck up Bratt

>the abandoned cities are literally the yellow and red zones from tiberian sun.

I've been wanting something to scratch this itch ever since EA killed Command and Conquer, so I'm dead hyped about this. Red and black colour schemes coming up for all my soldiers!

SVG rifle is best rifle, comrade. Why need another?

The term "hero unit" would seem to imply we get one unique, exceptionally powerful soldier. I just hope we get to promote one of our own to that status, or it's going to feel like the devs' Mary Sue stomping in to overshadow my loyal dudes.

Probably some STALKER base

...

>coming up
Weak, I've been rocking red and black on select soldiers since release.

Oh shit, they'll probably try to infiltrate/assault the avenger.

We need NOD and GDI armor mods like now.

>Be a Zone trooper in the red zones.

So are these lost just dead people who refused to go to the city centers or what?

GUYS
NOT ONLY DID JAKE FIX HIS GAME

HE FIXED HIS DLC AS WELL

>she will never tenderly peg you in the boypussy
JUST

...

DID THEY FIX FUCKING LOS

That's the important part desu

Happened during the initial invasion when they nuked our cities

How extensive are the redesigns going to be? Will Sparks be useful?

>Jake: So how did our audience receive alien hunters?
>They thought it was bullshit artificial difficulty, they also didn't like how the aliens played outside the rules of XCOM, also most disliked the MMO outfits
>Jake: OK NOW DO IT FOR THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN WITH THE THREE RESISTANCE BOSSES

Bravo Solomon

>or it's going to feel like the devs' Mary Sue stomping in to overshadow my Mary Sues.

fixed that for you

It is not going to be that way since, especially since one of the factions is made up of alien defectors. We already have soldiers in xcom2 who come who haven't been with xcom since they were rookies. No reason for this to be any different than to protect your OC.

People infected with tiberium.

So have they made a playable alien campaign yet?

I'm so sick of playing as terrorists.

The design of the Skirmisher really is a delightful blend of ADVENT and jury-rigging. Kudos to the art team. In fact, all of these look great.

...

So the Chosen are essentially new EXALT?

He fucking did it, he fixed his game

twitter.com/SolomonJake/status/874341097782128640

I have a problem with the Templar because it looks too similar to the T3 armor.

BUT WHERE DO THE TEMPLARS GET ALL THEIR HITECH BULLSHIT STUFF

Wait, what?

>Sparks are definitely buffed. Can add weapon mods, and have more health and aim. True tanks now.

OH BABY

>sparks redesigned into MECs

Those corpses are in surprisingly good shape despite 20 years of decay

They seem closer to rulers

...

Looks like a simulation room m8. I mean why would they have advent city terrain inside a holding cell?

He is in a glass case and they still keep 2 overwatches on him every turn. Poor Beagle.

I'm saying that in the sense that they disrupt your income/operations and you get lead missions to shut them down permanently.

Is this really worth an expansion?

Also still no terror from the deeps.

Terror from the Deep needs to be its own game

BY THE GODDESS FUCKING KEXX DOES IT AGAIN

steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=945122806

>make fun of Jake for a year
>he fixes his game out of spite
BASED SOLOMAN

>terror from the deeps.
Deserves it' own game.

Get out of here, Stalker

...

...

Porn when

Probably will change HP values and a few other things for Rulers as once you get your 'hero' units, I bet they suddenly can't do shit. Sparks need a complete overhaul, they just simply couldn't stand up to late game shit even if you build them full defensive tree and their aim is just piss even at close range. Only thing that feels good with them is breaking through walls with Overdrive so that other units could get flanks they wouldn't have been able to before.

>Jake is ACTUALLY fixing his game
Bless him
Now tell me about reduced stealth Jake

Jake has said that he doesn't like the concept of TFTD.

...

Leave PC gaming to me

>XCOM 2's ending clearly sets up TFTD
>Jake doesn't like it, so XCOM 3 spawns yet another different timeline
please no

...

It actually looks like their armor and weapons scales with xcom tech level.

Simulation room, sweet. Get that two people that aren't running a mission some experience, station an experienced soldier in there with them to get EVEN MORE. Thanks Jake, I will need this because you put in Fatigue now.

Are you ready guys, can you feel it? Fatigue Spirals

I wouldn't be surprised if XCOM3 skips to Apoc and the portal in the ocean turns out to be one of the gates for those other dimensional beings to come out of

...

Maybe they'll reveal xcom 2 was all a dream

>still no MECs
JAAAKEEEEEEEE

Sparks are getting buffed

...

muh sparks

X2's ending really only sets up for some bad mojo to come FROM the sea, it doesn't necessarily mean we have to fight it IN the sea.

Look at that right hand guys. Claws, ready for some shanking and bubbing. You saw that animation, same as the Skull Jack. Are you ready to instant kill some Advent without worrying about Feedback shit? Or maybe the Skirmisher is going to be an amazing Hacker that can't suffer feedback from failed Skull Mining.

They're making SPARKS not shit

Wait, isn't the green thing coming from one of the pods they used to abduct people in 1?

So you're saying it'd be a Terror that's coming From The Deep?
