friendly reminder that Chrysalids can now burrow into ground and move through concrete

The customization, can create some mad rosters and unique weapons. Weapons are dropped when a soldier is killed so you have to retrieve it along with it's unique modifications. The weapon is then passed on. It can even be named.
I'm also really looking forward to the gameplay changes. In Enemy Unknown, the combat was slow and methodical. You had to advance slowly until you "discovered" a pod, then you did everything you could to maintain a defensive line while you figured out your approach.
In XCOM 2, you're the aggressor and you can advance quickly while setting up ambushes. ADVENT also sends in dropships as reinforcements right on top of you. So basically you have to be way more aggressive rather than slow and cautious this time.
Where can I get this game cheap?

I wouldn't see why not. Grenadier replaces the rockets, so it will be a little different. Instead of wildly missing with an on-point direct rocket, you will no launch in an arch with grenades.
Friendly splash damage is in - that much is obvious. I doubt you can accidentally "shoot" your soldiers because of the mechanics of it, unless you directly target them for whatever reason.

The Faceless disguise themselves as civilians on terror missions and transform when you get too close to them. The only way to tell them apart from the real civvies are with battle scanners or by seeing if they run away when an alien gets close to them.

>>323447886
It looks and acts terrifying too.
On terror missions, there's now a minimum amount of civilians that you have to rescue, which means that you HAVE to approach them. Combined with the fact that you have only one way of telling fake civilians from real ones(and that's seeing if they run away from aliens or not), you will constantly be gambling whether a civilian is a squadwipe in disguise.
The best part? If you try to mob each civilian, and end your turn close to the faceless, he'll transform during his move and get a full turn, which is effectively a death sentence for one squad member.

The nuts and bolts: XCOM 2 players will not only have access to a Visual Studio isolated shell app for building mod projects, they will also have access to the Unreal editor Firaxis used to build the game as well as the script source code and roughly 50 GB of game assets.
>A response to a fan question even confirmed that the possibility for a modder-created co-op mode is there, with tools “robust” enough to make it happen as long as players provide their own matchmaking server.

And mimetic skin is the worst, it just breaks the whole game and is a crutch for shitters.
Who is best character and why is it my nigga Central?
Really hyped for this which is a strange feeling seeing as almost everything that comes out lately is garbage.
It's almost like living in a dream where devs react in intelligent ways to fan feedback.
However it is a bit dissapointing to see certain things are somewhat derivative of the original. Terror missions are a big example of this, they are basically the exact same except with the addition of minimum civs saved. No fatigue so again you can run uber squads with no consequence.
Maybe it was too much to hope for a mission where X-Com goes and blows up alien civilians or something, but it's also dissapointing to see that the game seems to basically follow the same formula of missions. Even the way research is laid out seems similar, with "skulljacking" aka, probably capturing, being one of the first objectives.
Also your troops 'breaking the glass' on advent laser bars seems to be a persistent bug that will go on launch.

>No fatigue so again you can run uber squads with no consequence.
Well to a certain extent. If you get wounded it will take the character out for a long while. I watched a vid of Legend difficulty where a trooper went to 1hp and had a whopping 39 day recovery time.
>game seems to basically follow the same formula of missions
Now on this one I dont follow your logic. Yeah, terror missions are very similar, however otherwise missions seem like they've got the biggest upgrade. In XCOM2012 most of missions were "kill everything". This time almost every mission has an objective, sometimes a timer. You assassinate VIPs from Advent convoys, you destroy uplinks, disarm bombs, evacuate a VIP to a landing zone, etc.
I dont think they follow the formula at all.
>>323451419
In addition it's a really bizarre choice to have XCOM ballistic weapons doing nearly twice as much damage as advent weapons, which even on legendary seem to only do 3 damage on a hit.
XCOM magnetic weapons do over twice as much as the advent versions, this seems sort of a weird break in the worldbuilding vs. mechanics that didn't exist in EU/EW.
MECs are neat. They can't hide behind waist-high cover like normal soldiers can, though, they can only hide behind full-size shit that breaks line of sight entirely. Or one of their upgrades turns them into a mobile shieldwall for regular troops to hide behind
Half the gene mods were fairly useless and the other half were OP as fuck from what I remember. And you needed lots of Meld to make the mod squad.
Also gene modded soldiers look goofy--modding a soldier puts them into this bare-armed model. I guess they wanted to put in some new cosmetic options for genemodded, but did it in the laziest way.
>>323451638
But Deathwatch Enchanced Edition is as shallow as an XCOM 2 Snek asshole. And the aesthetics are shit.

You could get similar wound times in EU/EW but eventually projects cut down even the most grievous of wounds to a relatively short period.
I only gave terror missions as an example of being derivative because I think that they honestly didn't even need them. Terror missions didn't have to be in the game if they weren't going to mix it up like they did with all the other examples you've provided where they've done a great job keeping things more interesting.

Mm, I think Faceless are exactly the thing you need on terror missions to make them fresh again.
In XCOM2012 you could ignore civvies but now you have to save them. But in addition you also have to be careful about them being hideous monsters.
I think terror missions will be the least interesting, but even then they are better than before.
As for the squad thing, you're right. I wish there was some incentive to mix things up like characters getting debuffs if you bring them on multiple missions in a row, and those debuffs disappearing over time.
snake tits is the only reason i bought this game

>No fatigue so again you can run uber squads with no consequence.
That's balanced out with FAR longer bench time from wounds, and the aliens have a lot more tools to fuck you up with just in general. Not to say we don't ether, but I'm starting to feel it's more their ballgame then ours you know? That new unit, the Gatekeeper, is going to be hell if it's armor is like 2-3 with a sizable chunk of health due towards just how much damage it can do with that beam + the multi-zombie ordeal. Zombies in this game are not units you want to take lightly as one can easly whip you for like 8 health, and killing them is pointless as they'll just get back up till you defeat the source.
But yeah, it's pretty clear that XCOM 2 is just XCOM EU/EW with enhancements...and honestly I'm OK with that. The refinement overall is already leaning towards a far less bullshit ( how was I to know I couldn't see the fag from there? ) and far more dynamic ( squad wondering around the base, squard get's different little personalty quips and affects lached onto them under use ) experience as well. There's stuff I do wish they would fix ( the breaking glass when there is no glass, still able to 'see' past walls at times, pods spawning in area's they can't move out of ) but overall I enjoyed EU/EW, and I can already see myself loving this.
>>323452367
I kind of get the feeling they know their player base with this one, and are focusing more on just pandering to that niche who already know all about it instead of going for wider audiences.

>>323453223
what in the fuck just happened
>>323451937
I feel like the Advent in general are more a Riot squad then anything else? Sure, electric batons is pretty harsh, but none of their weapons directly scream "We want to kill you on sight". I think they are set more for 'stun' then direct slaughter...even if in turn they aren't able to acually cuff and capture your units directly ( or if they are, no one's showed this factor off yet ). In earnest they aren't much better off then the police in modern age. They have guns, but they aren't magnums or high powered assault rifles ether.

It makes a whole lot of sense really. I'm usually not a buyfag but I have for this because I like the way they've gone about things and because I liked the original a whole lot.
>>323453374
an .ini edit to deploy a shit load of soldiers. You can actually do the same thing with the new mechanics, but with only a regular squad instead of a massive firing squad.
>>323453384

Double Tap, it's helpful when you actually need it.
>>323453560
Satellites are still priority. But in missions you can't fucking slow crawl your way forward. You're on a time limit. Gotta find that sweet sweet goo so you can build robots and shit.
Don't build both of the new buildings, pick one or the other. If you're investing goop into building mec troopers you won't have enough to make the gene mod lab worthwhile and vice versa.
Personally I prefer Mec.

This is seriously good advice, thanks anon.
Is this game mainly single player or are the multiplayer aspects better?
>>323454075
Single player
>>323454075
SP is the reason to play the game. MP is just something on the side
Yet another XCOM 2 thread ruined by disgusting degenerates who get off to a fictional snake.. Pathetic.
>>323454075
There is multiplayer?
>>323453918
Having a psi guy with offensive things like mindfray/panic/MC is absolutely fantastic for low-will high damage aliens.
Having a MEC is excellent for EVERYTHING.
>>323453918
Psi soldiers have lots of neet ways to fuck up Mutons.
Mecs excel in all those open areas with little cover that are a death trap for the rest of your troops.
>>323454075

Seeing as how Firaxis is fully aware of the lessons learned from Long Dong, I'm kind of hoping that there will be more than three weapon tiers. Lasers (and/or pulse lasers) would fit perfectly in as a sidegrade to Gauss weapons or as the penultimate tier before plasma.

the emperor created the space marine modifications. only he knew the proper ways to change the human form for the better. anyone else attempting to change the human body will invite ruin.

Sarge or cash. I kinda need both, the cash would be used for a steam generator or since I have no Sargent I could get the squad size right away.

I dunno, early money was also good for constructing Satellites. Those things need to be under construction PRONTO--they can save you from losing a nation/continent bonus

There's also gas grenades, yeah.
But I'm leaning more towards a team of grenadiers in exosuits, with incendiary grenades, flamethrowers and dragon's breath ammo.

Lol it's shit.
>>323459885
Shit like this, single units from pods teleporting to flank you, and the pre-EW pods teleporting into you and immediately taking a turn(FUCKING SECTOPODS) is why I don't bother with ironman.

The air combat is by far the worst part of LW, holy shit. It makes me mad to think about.
>>323453084
Because they were fucking annoying as thin men.
>>323469059
I doubt they're going to be less annoying in XCOM 2 when they can pull your troops out of cover with their tongue.

Yes it is. You don't have MECs.
But the thing about there being less aliens is horse shit. We've already seen more aliens than Enemy Unknown had.

There is more story, but maps are now procedurally generated instead of preset you baiting mongoloid cuck
>>323469401
Xcom 2 has 11 types.
Xcom EW had 16 types.
Fuck off.

What?

XCOM 2 has more aliens and this is fact

A shame, you probably had a 98% chance to reply to the right post.
>>323469475

Don't count as aliens.
>psi zombie
Don't count.
>ethereals
Haven't been confirmed yet.
>dark VIP
Not an enemy.
how you want your XCOM fa m
>>323469704
top fucking kek
>>323469712
Advent are aliens, it's already been leaked.
And even if he doesn't include the VIP and Ethereals, XCOM 2 still has more aliens than EU/EW.
>>323469723
just bomb my men up

At least you can fap to sneks.

Devs and playtesters have certainly noted that XCOM 2 does and will have a lot more plot and characterization this time around, though considering how barebones EU/EW was in terms of story and depth, that's not exactly saying a whole lot. The prequel novel is a fun read though.
That aside, there seems to plenty of space for dynamic progress. Several aspects of the tech tree are said to be randomized, so exactly
what kinds of weapons/equipment you'll be able to unlock will show some variance between different plays. The strategic layer has a whole lot more going on now, and based on what can be seen from the previews and streams, there's a definite sense of it playing like a board game, with the ayys pursuing their own agenda and randomized opportunities, much like the player.
Of course, we won't know for certain until the game's actually out in full, but it's admittedly looking pretty optimistic.
>>323469475
The Muton and the Berserker in XCOM 2 are vastly different compared to EU's two types. Both in terms of gameplay and in the visual department this time.
The Berserker in XCOM 2 has the longest tile movement range and the strongest melee attacks.

>>323469997
Now you're talking
Who else is going to customize characters so that there are no shitskins from third world garbage countries, and so that gender diversity is more like 80/20 than the retarded 50/50 of EW?
>>323470209

this desu lad

I/I is easily beatable in EW with minimal luck anywhere you start, it does not matter.

> ADVENT don't count as aliens
They have orange blood and speak in clicks, they're not human.
> Still counting EXALT when discounting ADVENT
EXALT are still just people with reverse-engineered alien tech, like XCOM, I counted them but if you want to knock off ADVENT, you have to knock off EXALT too.
> Psi Zombies don't count
Then we can't count regular zambambos in the first game either.
> Ethereals not confirmed
They are, just not in gameplay yet.
> Dark VIP aren't an enemy
They are, but they may not be conventional, I'll give you that.
So if we use my count:
EU: 11
EW: 14
X2: 17, with possibly more
If we use your count, adjusted to not count EXALT, ADVENT, zombies, or dank VIP:
EU: 10
EW: 12
X2: 12, with possibly more

This is also true.
