NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHAT THE FUCK I WANNA HEAD TO SLEEP AND PLAY WHEN I WAKE UP FUUUUCK

Wrong poster dammit.

Is there a mod that makes it some random recruits won't use random modded clothing items?

Even with the sliders all the way down, they seem to show up with the stupidest, most broken outfits.

somebody post female XCOM member lewdfics please

Dude, they are resistance hobos, they wear what they found

Post good playthroughs of modded campaigns.
I'm that guy with the busted computer from a few threads ago

What kind of hobos show up to fight with invisible arms and solid, textureless helmets?

We anthems now? We anthems now.

why's a lost mission rated at very hard

is the WAR suit just an upgrade to the EXO suit or do they have different pros and cons?

Straight upgrade like the wraith is to a spooky suit.

Any good slut mods that work with WOTC? I need to slut these bitches up.

Is there a mod that add nationalities that works with WotC yet? I want Albanians to throw at sneks.

Merry fucking Christmas Advent.

Let's try this with less retardation
>accidentally trigger Archon King and 2 Archons when using Rend to finish off a pod as the last move of my turn
>One Archon goes on Overwatch, another shoots my Grenadier, the King just moves uncomfortably closer to 5 of my guys squad
>all my guys except my Templar are grouped together on a roof with nowhere to grapple to
>somehow get my Snek Ranger, Templar, and Skirmisher into melee range and freeze one of the 2 Archons he came with all while only taking one overwatch shot on my Skirm
>break out of grabs repeatedly
>get a lucky disorientation from Rend
>Archon finally uses Devastate, but on the melee guys out front
>mfw
I managed to end the turn with no damage from the King, both Archon's frozen and the King calling his portal with 18 HP left.

My one regret is that my Specialist didn't land the stun on his way out so I could kill his ass then and there.

That can be fixed though

Its easy to raise with covert ops, so its not really that restrictive or anything.

You can't raise hero intelligence in Covert Ops

Doesn't work on faction soldiers

>I'm angry, angry about Elders

Just a preview, not sure if i'll upload this one today

...

You need to plug your Skirmisher into his charger.

>Immune my ass.

COMMANDER, THE ALIENS stopped by to let you know they hope for the best and though we may find ourselves on opposites sides of life and death situations that in under different circumstances we might have been friends and that no matter what happens they hope we all walk out of this better people

Warlockposting is more fun than it has any right to be

Is there a way to make your character pool soldiers only up midway through your campaign or as rewards for missions? I want them to be like Doorn or Zhang from EU, like badasses.

>NUMERICAL HEALTH DISPLAY

He has a silly looking face. Looks like he just realised the answer of a simple addition and pooped his pants at the same time.

What mod is that? For the health bars.

And by his charger I mean Dragunova's ass.

>hashmarks with vanilla healthbars.

>the templar has yet another huge fucking block on his health bar

But why, just use additional icons or show me health values, why do you want those horrid giant blocks obscuring so much of the screen? It looks awful.

Tis but a scratch

You use additional icons or display health values. Numeric health had it's time in the day, now it's time to put it away.

Because I like the heart icon and don't like hashmarks.

So what Weapon mods does /xcg/ use?
I know the big pack that was just released is a no brainer, but is there anything like it for T2/T3 weapons

>stunned enemies can dodge attacks

This shit is silly.

Which mods have some nice tacticool, operator scarfs in them?

>doesn't like hashmarks
That means you don't like /xcg/... ;_;
I don't ever want to see your face around here again user.

Pretty sure that pack has t2 stuff at least. Also, the LW guys are re-working their laser and coilguns weapons as a new WotC stand-alone mod, so keep your eyes open for that.

You've never been beamed by something and then immediately dodged something else?

Honestly, nothing atm. While I appreciate modders work, most of the stuff they add just looks out of place. It also bothers my autism when I see a gun that I clearly can recognize from Stalker mods and shit, not to mention some slight imperfections, which is understandable.

I liked LW Lasers and Coils, gonna wait before LW team finishes WotC port and other people make replacers, so I can purge that stupid sleek Tier 3 sports car shit.

When Bradford says that there are supplies stashed in the AO, how do I recognize them? (Not in the mission where you pick up the boxes)

>finish commander, was a bit easy
>just started legend difficulty for the first time
>10hp sectoids
>can't even make it through the first chosen fight without losing a soldier and giving them info
>these build times
>these intel costs
>1 guy is out for 44 days with an injury
I'm not sure I'm properly prepared for this

no u

Look out for containers that have green star tiles or something around them. They usually have like 30 supplies in them.

You are tearing me apart user

good

Found it.

>beamed
Beaned*

I've searched this entire god damn map, what do I do? should I just evac?

Getting past gatecrasher on legend is an achievement in and of itself.

You fail the mission if you evac tho. Check the roofs for turrets?

Either bug or you missed a random enemy. Depending on the map, pods won't patrol and can spawn in any given room or roof.

I've heard horror stories of Lost crammed in random corners of the map.

I had a bug where 1 lost guy was outside the map border. Had to use console to get him. I hate it when the doppler visual thing doesn't proc.

Use Additional Icons, you fucking retard. Just kill yourself allready.

Stop healthbarposting dumb healthbar poster

>So aesthetic!
>10/10
>Don't need to see anything else on my screen really

Do we really need to have this discussion again?

Oh yeah. I forgot.

Every time I see a Skirmisher I am reminded of Spiderman. And every time I remember Spiderman I remember why we have no SHIVs.

On the plus side you can still use the general AP pool and just use the increase intelligence missions on nonheroes so you don't need to use general AP there.

Good Morning!

Wow it's like the healthbars are coming right at me!

...

Why did Firaxis choose to completely ignore the late game? Isn't that the most glaring issue with XCOM2 in general?

Early-midgame is a lot of fun, but fuuuuuuuck do I lose the will to play late game everytime.

The late game is fine if you just ignore the Chosen and don't rush beam

Hey, at least you're not the chosen getting humiliated by a couple of monkeys in front of the elders and you don't even have the ability to reload your game

Nah, Chosen don't really add to the difficulty outside of very early game because the bad AI makes 2/3 of them completely ineffective.

Just downloaded a mod for a liberty prime voice pack for SPARK mfw

She's very flexible :^)

...

does anyone know if the alternate mod launcher has been updated for wotc?

Funny isn't it?

How do I get cosmetic mods to work? My slider in-game doesn't work, losing the will to live

I just want it so my men pick random items from mod packs like hats and uniforms, guns etc

What do you mean? They'll only change cosmetics when you go up to a new armor tier or they're a brand new soldier generated after you've changed the sliders

I don't have any options for sliders and if I do they don't seem to work

So do you have sliders or not?
