The more active modders will have things up and running by the time you complete a vanilla run of Wotc

Holy shit, Bahroo just did a 'solo' assassination mission with the Reaper and it was easy. That's going to get really stupid.

Cosmetic mods and voice packs should work just fine, as should any smaller gameplay tweaks.

I challenge you to find that proprietary font in photoshop

>assassination is easy if you send a sneaking focused marksman

Some mods will need an update

In LW1, what are the conditions for a fleeing enemy to regroup?

More specifically if I'm doing a landed barge and a thin mint runs away, should I be worried about him rejoining combat while I'm fighting a pod, or will he only reappear if I move up to him?

what else can you expect from bore of the chosen?

The fonts aren't really the problem. The real problem is the way the stroke is rendered, it has rounded edges which just make it look off, you generally want clean lines and stark contrast to get that propaganda look. Even the ones in picrel aren't great, cause the fonts are pretty thin and not as readable as they should be.

...

What's a website where I can buy this game for cheap? There is no way I'm paying $100 to get the game + dlc when I might aswell pirate it.

instant gaming

You missed x2 being on sale for 20 euros and then the expansion being on sale for 25$.

Steam sales exist for a reason user, it was only on sale for a massive discount a month ago

Fuck.

It wasn't even a month ago, it was 2 weeks ago and then there was a 60~70% discount during the summer sale

instant-gaming.com/en/869-buy-key-steam-xcom-2/

So, apparently Resistance Orders can swap with Continent bonus. That's going to be interesting.

you mean we can get Armed to the Teeth as a card?

swap? you mean like you can make one permanent with enough contacts?

Seems sketchy, especially with how one of the images of Xcom War of the Chosen is GTA V and the comments are all spanish who are all newly made accounts.

I've bought multiple games from instant in the past and I've not had a single problem.

>especially with how one of the images of Xcom War of the Chosen is GTA V
you what?

I can't speak to the veracity of your skepticism of that keysite, but you have a credit card right? Just charge em back.

im getting to a point in long war 2 where there are 30+ hp enemies with shitloads of armor everywhere and I dont know if I like it

sounds magnificent to me

That's the problem with LW2. It's just boring. It turns into a horrible grind.

most advent don't have much more than 15.

this magnificent pod died with barely a scrath ( I forgot about the grenades) plasma helps a lot

I guess alpha striking that shit truly is out of the question.

the key is to control targets you can't kill. stasis and hacks are the biggest two versus tough enemies.

All these guys had no real chance to fight back except the fucking archer who ran away and lobbed a grenade after I forgot to use Incoming!

Joey mod when?

I will feed you 15+1 9mm hollowpoints if I ever see you fucker.

So, why the fuck didn't they improve the UI?

>still no numerical stat values
>flank preview appears to be an additional system that can conflict with legacy preview, giving misleading results

like that shit should be the simplest, patch-tier stuff. i don't understand firaxis' priorities

[BEAGLE ACTIVITY]

>weird bald lanky manlet
no thayynks.

Is this 4 weeks in a row now? Im surprised

I understand the numerical stats, but I don't really know what you mean with the flank preview.

Killing the VIP on Dark VIP missions has always been really easy, it is extracting them that is challenging.

Watched a few previews, including Marbozir, there are multiple buggy issues with the target preview system, recall how the vanilla game gives you a sort of asterisk near a targetable enemy? And mods like Gotcha allow this to become a yellow flank preview? Well, that seems to be a legacy system that isn't improved on, the new target preview that shows icons lower on the screen can give information that is at odds with the other system. It's like they're just tacking code onto the game, without cleaning anything up.

Like you can get them as resistance orders one game, but a bonus on another. So you can get Volunteer Army, as something from the Reapers, or you can get it as a bonus instead.

Remember the Trash Hill.

Underrated post

Fix this you miscreant

Why do ayys want commander so badly? Commander lost the war.

He's a tactical genius super computer. This is canon.

lw2 is ded

The commander was winning the war before being kidnapped by the aliens, at which point they kidnapped the commander's intelligence with their superior firepower and steamrolled humanity.

BF1 ports when

this : also it probably wasn't his fault
either someone on the council betrayed them and everything went down hill from there or the ayys didnt fucked around and started deploying mutons and sectopods since day 1

...

that's nearly a month old

if they were working on it (probably aren't atm) they wouldn't be at liberty to say until 2k says so. in any case they wouldn't announce it until the expac has been out for some time

No! Not my Viper body pillow!

...

because he's an ethereal but he still has a hot body unlike them

it's the only answer that makes sense

I really just want the perk and alien packs updated and I would be very happy. Long Dong is just too long. I also hope the Pathfinderanon updates his mod, but that seems probable.

What about obscene material containing Vhalen?

It IS intriguing

I won't tell Bradford about your obscene material as long as you bring me back ADVENT burgers when you get back from being deployed.

Fuck if i had any money i'd totally commission an entire Xcom squad in an ADVENT burger joint and one goes "YO CAN I GET A FUCKIN UUUUUUUH"

...

So how many mods is WOTC going to break?

All of them

>Tygan's been blackmailing most of the xcom troops for ADVENT burgers since the Avenger took off
>Lilly thinks it's some kind of double agent conspiracy but the truth is Tygan just wants that delicious mystery meat and special sauce in his mouth.

All of them, except camouflage mods if the photobooth is any indication.

Dude, phrasing?

I would love this so much
>fighting the ayys with BARs and Madsens
I want shivs back so we can reskin them as armored cars and landcrawlers

>all those people on the forum talking as if LW2 is gods gift to XCOM 2
What a bunch of faggots.

What if someone ported the Kolibri

Pistols are useful

only if I also get the repeiterpistole and i get to watch its sweet reload animation

That second "kidnapped" should really be "combined".

>Not the C96

Landcrawlers you say?

>not the autorevolver

the stripper clip gets me really hard okay, seriously tho I want em all

That's kinda lewd

...

Nude mods when

>BF1 guns.

Right, a bunch of wacky tabacky firesticks that would be thrown in the latrine the over shit that actually was mass produced and standard issue.

>Tygan is literally Squdward after getting addicted to Krabby Patties.

I would be extremely _Useful_.

for you

That Clutch under pressure...

something's wrong. Why do those snakes not look at all concerned about the heavy firing quad?

Still hoping someone will add these.

You think XCOM would allow live vipers that close to them? Even if they're disarmed you still have to watch out for their venom sacs. Those are posed corpses.

I donno sir, they look pretty lively. And what's that about venom sacks?

>Tygan says he misses the burgers
>He says he doesn't want to know what they are made of
>He never said he stopped eating them.

Sometimes in the photobooth, he asks you to take a picture of the squad next to an ADVENT burger menu.

...

I wonder if there are viper defectors in the Skirmishers like there are normal advent troops. Technically there should be, considering they are all made the same way and have skull chips, right?
