I consider myself a Classic-tier player, but I'm considering jumping to Legendary for WotC because Classic just seems much more forgiving than the standard game.
Matthew Gonzalez
CoD WW2 has it worse. You can play as black female German paratroopers
Justin Barnes
Damn juicy.
Benjamin Jackson
It varies from person to person.

Some meeting place this
Cooper Bennett
Most of my mods are cosmetic and voice packs. I'll wait a week, and that's probably overkill.
Samuel Hill
I haven't played, but from what I've heard through /v/, the black soldiers are colonial forces from the African fronts of the war. And obviously, you can play whatever you want in the multiplayer battle arenas.
Carson Carter
ADVENT aircraft force the Firebrand to withdraw. It doesn't matter what the situation is on the ground if your troops have no one to pick them up.
Jordan Long
I'm gonna go to bed, and hope 8-10 hours is enough for some mods to be fixed if needed. If not, I'll grit my teeth and do a semi-clean run.
Oliver White
Does no one else here play mostly vanilla with only cosmetic upgrades?
Caleb Adams
The only gameplay mods I use are ones to give soldiers extra equipment slots, because the game has a lot of cool gear that almost never gets used because grenades are so essential.
Ethan Bennett
I feel you but then it feels like cheating with that mod.
Ethan Cooper
Cosmetic, voice pack, and quality-of-life mods like Evac All and more camera angles for me. XCOM's balance is pretty finely-tuned, I don't need some seemingly innocuous mod to throw things out of whack.
Isaac Collins
It makes the game a little easier, yeah, but I don't think it upsets the balance too much. It's also fun if you want to get into personalising your soldiers more, because you can kit them out with all the weird, thematic odds and ends that you'd otherwise have to miss out on.
Isaac Powell
The only major mod that breaks away from the general setup I use is tactical rigging, simply because I find it absurd that ammo takes a inventory slot. It's also lowers the value of grenadiers because everybody can have 2 types of grenade class equipment
Evan Sanders
What are you guys expecting from Long War of The Chosen?
I feel like the most obvious change would be making the Advent HQs use the same mapset as the Chosen Bases
Carson Collins
But why blacks? I'm sure there were a lot more asians than blacks if we're going to count the 15 blacks that fought in mainland germany.
Jaxon Lee
One thing I really think is total nonsense is that in vanilla you can't remove weapon mods. You can exchange them with the continent bonus but still, what fucking sense does it make to not be able to take a scope off your rifle once it's already on there?
It just makes things obtuse for seemingly no reason. Things like inventory restrictions make sense from a gameplay standpoint (although there are surely better ways to balance things) but this is just irredeemable. Like the xcom team is using gorilla glue to attach all their equipment or something.
Hunter Young
Again, I haven't played the game, but I think some of the single-player takes place on the African front.
Ian Taylor
Chosen will have more than 5 strengths and will show up more.
Robert Evans
I'm expecting it to not exist because they are focusing on Phoenix Point
The continent bonus allows you to exchange them, not remove them
Luis Scott
Pavonis is not making Phoenix Point, they are working on some other game (gsg dock iirc)
Ethan Taylor
*xcom not dock, fuck autocorrect

Nope, snake-fucking weirdo thread is two doors down, just ignore the sign that says 'industrial blast furnace - caution do no enter" and step inside

Yes, you just need to step right into a gas chamber before proceeding though.

perfect target for execution via high-caliber firearm or death by napalm strike
god damn we all love alien murder!
Hunter Perry
Isn't snakes rattling their tail a sign for other creatures to stay away?
Landon Walker
>BOSS GET DOWN
Carter Morales
Only when it's a rattlesnake or a harmless species that mimics the action against dead leaves and rocks to imitate a rattle. In everything else with a tail it's a sign of fear and nervousness.
Connor Davis
He does mention a few times to pick it up and the game even shows you via a cutscene and an indicator, stop blaming Bradford because you're stupid.
Aiden Jones
Eeeh, wrong user, friendo.
Landon Russell
That's a DSP level of fail user
Ryan Lewis
how about taking a car home or someshit, or just lay low in the area and reconnect some time later?
Connor Ortiz

Easton Parker
You're fighting a guerilla war against a force that controls the entire planet, and if I remember correctly, those missions only take place on urban maps. How far do you think your soldiers can get undetected with checkpoints and those ADVENT towers everywhere?
I don't think you really grasp the position that XCOM is in vis-a-vis ADVENT in this game.
Ian Kelly
These Breakthroughs that give you an extra weapon upgrade slot will be the death of me.

Dominic Wright
>controls the entire planet they control the city centers at best. there are countless resistance, or even just plain civilian hideouts all over and they cant even find a flying city even when its parked out next to them.
And other than the pristine city centers (and even tehre) there is evidence of dissatisfaction all over the place so even in urban areas, there would be XCOM-friendly safedens where they can hide out for a few days, but more than likely they wouldnt even need those since its porven that XCOM operatives can move in low profile, so once immedieate enemies are silenced they are effctively concealed again.
Also, depending on the tech level they could just carve a trail out of the town. If we take a turn to take say 10 sec, and you can take out enemies in 1 turn which is entirely in the realm of possible, then you are just basicaly sprinting across town, decorating the walls with advent as soon as you see them.
Hunter Watson
Probably should be local gene therapy clinic instead of recruitment centre (since they don't exist) but otherwise 10/10
Christian Green
I'd spam WW2 ports when but then I see this and I'm going "the fuck?"
Isaac Davis
you've not seen the black female SS troops yet
Leo Lewis
You'd think so, but in WotC one of the after-mission soundbites mentions ADVENT stepping up its voluntary recruitment efforts. They may not use them for military or security (but who knows, maybe they want someone with a human face for some checkpoints), but they obviously want basic human employees for *something*.
Tyler Hughes
Scientists and stuff.
I think the people from other voluntary recruitment programs just end up on a train to the Black Site user. They need them, yes, as goo.
Easton Price
reeee
Justin Johnson
I think you're overestimating the stupidity of the general populace. I think they'd catch on if literally everyone who went to a recruitment centre was never seen again, and their families just told they're on a farm where they can run around as much as they want.
Even the Spokesman, when introducing the Avatar Project, sends a list of "disappearances" all over the world. This would seem to imply that individuals are going missing, one here and one there, at a rate that wouldn't raise eyebrows. Even the dumbest civilian is going to notice if everyone who walks into a recruitment center never walks out.
Ayden Butler
You notice in the new intro that the advent guards speak their gibberish and the scientists respond in english. Wont people think thats odd since everyone should think that advent guards are people?
