>anything but useful

The edgy tryhard names Firaxis chose for literally everything in War of the Chosen kind of betrays the fact that their writers are either teens or mentally adolescent.

why are ADVENT HQ raids in LW2 such a chore to do?

always take almost a good hour or more, I end up putting them off sometimes simply because I don't enjoy doing them.

No shit, that's the point.

Is there a way to instantly end current mission, cheats included? I'm two turns away from extraction but game always crashes at the end of the turn. Long wang 2.

You can just use "tatc" in the console to move your characters to the evac.

I mean the new classes and boogaloos are all fun stuff, new Gops and using RnFs for soft timers I definitely prefer to vanilla but goddamn the HQ raids are the one thing I never really liked doing. The network towers are a close second I guess.

What do you mean? They make a good backup weapon I thought. For like when you are out of ammo but you need something dead. Or when your sniper gets to close and should switch to the sidearm?

I have a mod that allows all secondary weapons/gadgets be slotted in as a utility slot.

Speaking of backup weapons, are there any good machine pistols or shotty mods similar to what Long War 1 added?

Thanks
