This.

I fucking love those oversized boots there.

modding was a mistake

This is what happens when you rush Resistance Ring instead of the Gellar Field.

...

Not him, but it's the sniper outfit from valkyria chronicles.

Mods here if you're curious.

And sometimes your space marines end up in rocks.

That happens more often than it should.

A+ for such a precise reference.

What happens if I disable the WoTC story content?
I want to restart my campaign but don't want to play through that really long skirmisher/reaper meet up mission again. Is it worth replaying it to get some story related missions later on?

You start with a random faction and have to contact the other two through covert ops.

It just gets rid of the intro mission with Mox and Elena. You get a random resistance hero in Gatecrashers and you find the rest like the Templars through covert ops. First Chosen is random and will show up on the first retaliation. If they ravage your asshole too hard just let them extract/kidnap some poor SOB and they will fuck off.

Why do posters auto appear on the second highest rank instead of the highest? Wouldn't the highest rank make more sense?

What mod adds that helmet?

is that valkyria chronicles gear?

So about today's Beagles...

Literally who?

what are the best xcom mods?

Did he died?

This is what Airgame should look like, this shit right here.

The city in Apocalypse just looks like I'm playing Future SimCity or something

Well it is pretty much a sim city, except you are just a single part of the ecosystem.

>tfw Spark Bigger Punch mod doesn't have any knockback for me

Fuck me, I just want the punches to be more awesome

Do you have a mod that affects ragdolls? Mine wasn't working quite right with punching

Bagle activity

oh hai

How will Lump ever recover?

Hes on now.

...

Beagle DUN FUCKED UP

strawpoll.me/14137350/

Choice is obvous desu

I like them all with Chosen AI, desu. They're all pretty fun to fight.

Where's the bro who made the free aim mod for Xcom enemy unknown

Did he die

>Beagle isn't using the mod that gives advent soldiers names

The joke could be much funnier

Anyone used the Psi Overhaul mod?

Is it more satisfying than the default XCOM2 Psi Ops?

Tbh it just seems like a way to make even more overpowered lategame soldiers.

Blatant migrant from other boards here, is the expansion dlc thing worth it? More specifically, are there good mods out for it yet? Long War?

>Beagle is telling us to not fuck Codices
Don't tell me how to live my life.

100% yes. No Long War yet, but the base game is great. I doubled my time in the game after buying the expansion in like, a week.

We aren't telling him not to fuck Jamball, how rude

LW2 has not been updated yet, I wouldn't expect it for months if at all.

Here's hoping

Yeah, WOTC is fantastic. Where you from friend?

Unanimous support for a $60 dlc on Veeky Forums? Am I getting bamboozled?

>Where you from friend?
It's not important.

>horsecuck
out

Well it's 40 bucks first off. Thanksgiving or Christmans, you might be able to find a deal that puts it down to around 30$.
But yeah, it adds more content than the expansion for XCOM1 and the content is all really good stuff, addresses lots of criticism the vanilla game had.

>horsecuck
I mean, I guess, if you count the one day /pol/ merged with /mlp/. I just grabbed the least offensive meme in my folder from my home board. It's /pol/.

$60 in leafbux, but I'm going to grab it anyways- I'm sold. How are the zombies? Interesting or boring?

It's well worth $40. Assuming you already like the base game.

Hello /xcg/

I was wondering if someone could help me out please - a long time ago I remebmer seeing in one of the pastebins a link to a FAQ by a guy named level20muton or level20floater, something like that, which I think he hosted on a git repository or something like that and configured it in such a way that it displayed a simple webpage

Does anyone still have the link for that? I couldn't find it now. I want to do something similar for another general and would like to follow the example

surely you have better memes

> Templar on a Reaper spree
> End it on wounding a MOCX Sniper
> Aw fug he has return fire
> Gets dodge memed and only does 2 damage
> Triggers Bladestorm and gets cut down like a bitch
> This triggers Reaper again

Holy shit out fucking skilled ADVENT.

>$60 in leafbux, but I'm going to grab it anyways- I'm sold. How are the zombies? Interesting or boring?
Zombies are actually the best implementation of that enemy type I've ever seen in a turn based game. Usually I fucking hate them since they are so boring to fight and 1 dimensional, but the mechanics for fighting the Lost are really good. Just make sure to get the mod that fixes a Dark Event that was making lost permanent.
Also A FUCKING LEAF

Try the LW pastebin in the OP:
pastebin.com/YmaXBKpN

>How are the zombies? Interesting or boring?
the units themlselves are fairly basic, regular zombie, beffy zombie and fast zombie
but from a mechanical standpoint they are fun to deal with
especially when you already have regular aliens on the map then one of the bosses shows up then the zombies start attacking both sides
its a fun mess

I did say least offensive.

>Just make sure to get the mod that fixes a Dark Event
Great, thanks. I'll check it out. Any other essential mods I should know about?

It's a expansion pack.

Oh thank you user

Neat, that's it

who the fuck are the 9 people who didn't vote for the bants master, that's what i want to know

checkout:
gotcha again
show enemy health values or numeric health display if you have a thing for big squares
brutal fix
EU aim rolls

Hey the other two actual function on a mechanical level without mods, that is worth something.

yeah, but I don't want to listen to those two for more than 5 seconds, so...

Also hunter has the best music themes, my favorites by far

>good now just need 1 miss
>snek pulls her in
>bladestorm kills it
>ok just not a crit then, stupid snek
>untouchable triggers again
Honestly had no Idea that could happen.

I like Long War 1's Air Game

i pooped this out over the course of a few hours
steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1167122902

awww yea

Starting my first real playthrough, any reason to start without War of the Chosen ?

NICE

Nope

Is that WOTC?
Is XSoldier updated??

I won't get it because I hate having invisible body parts randomly showing up on soldiers, but thanks for the mods regardless man. More customization is always appreciated.

How do you get more contacts?
I can only fit 2 upgraded comms in the avenger right now. I can also pretty much remove GTS when I've bought everything right?

Yes, just delete the GTS.
You definitely won't lose all the perks.
Definitely not, trust me.

I just googled.
Fuck you, I bet you're a sectoid behind that post.

He's updating and adding to it, but he's not done and it's not WOTC-compatible yet, he's waiting until he's done with the vanilla version to do that.

The only conceivable reason to start without WotC would be if this is your first XCOM and you want a slightly less complex experience to learn the ropes.

I'd genuinely like some Hunter armour options as a mod. He's dressed smart.

>Put on Skirmisher hood in head slot and it warps a skirmishers face to fit a normal humans
>Put on Skirmisher hood in lower face prop and works perfectly fine

How odd

...

Terrifying

Covert Ops.
Orders
Rumours

And no

[WOTC] Additional Icons is the one you really need.
Then maybe

Are there any costume or visual mods that doesn't break immersion? I only have CapnBubs right now and I don't really use it much aside from the berets. Ballcap is 10/10.

What breaks immersion in your eyes? If you're like me and you can't stand cosmetics that are recognizable from other games, or ones that break off too sharply from the art style of the game, I'm afraid there isn't much to dig into. I use CapnBubs, Stenchfury's stuff, the rage helmet, as well as minor stuff like glowing eyes and Alternate Prop Positions. All of this with Unlimited Customization.

All the XCOM armor ports, tier 1-3.
Wardens gear is technically just extreme tactical pouches on top of Tier 3 power armor.
Those seem like your best bets, since they are both just basically XCOM gear.

>XCOM armor ports

When are those updating for WotC, anyway? I want my EXALT defectors to look pimp, damnit all.

>When are those updating for WotC, anyway?
They already have though.
