A mod for XCOM 2 that grants you the ability to stay undetected, even while in sight of enemies, if you're in cover.

Half cover grants you a 50% chance to remain undetected, while full cover grants a 90% chance to remain undetected.
Leaving cover while you're still in sphere-of-sight will activate the pod you're hiding from

I think the very early game is set up to just be unbelievably brutal. Enemies kill you in 1 shot, you can only guaranteed kill advent 4hp minions in 1 shot while you might get lucky with others, your aim is shit.

you are lying, witcher 3 ran like complete ass for everyone and AMD babbys are still butthurt.

drivers often offer performance increases of 20-40%. There isn't even a day one patch yet, have some patience

also install the game on a SSD. Majorly helps

To any anons out there who still have the chance of refunding it and are dissatisfied with Firaxis delivery of Xcom 2, personally I'd advise you to refund the game then download the crack off pirate bay. If in a week or two time Firaxis has fixed their shit, rebuy the game.

the "x turns to complete mission" thing is pretty shitty. especially since the enemies are powerful as hell and my squad cant hit shit. maybe a twist in the story will remove that limit later in the game, but right now i enjoyed the previous xcom a whole lot more this early on.

also, the urban environments are waay to cluttered, makes it really hard to figure out the best way to position your troops. the simpler layouts in the previous game was a lot better.

The first time was a great and tense blast with the classic one turn escape.
But now I've done Newfoundland about three times, its no longer hard but just tedious as hell.

Will countries panic if I skip it? Or is it just panic reduction that this late in the game I don't need.

They upped the counter from Beagle's stream. Not 18 days anymore but rather 12-14, at least for me. Ended up losing because at some point Mexico decided to lose the radar array despite winning the terror mission there, so I wasn't able to actually get on the black site.

Also the defeated ending cinematic is underwhelming. Thin Mint has a speech about how they've won, long live the advent and the elders, Xcom is no more, scenes of persecution and violence by Advent but no real sense of "Humanity is dogfood now". If anything it kind of just makes it seem dystopian but not genocidal.

It's gonna be the same fucking thing this time, I bet. Why can't Firaxis be competent in the first place? Do companies seriously just never learn?

Also, question: 4 options to buy shit at HQ at the turn of the month popped up; 2 being an engi/scientist, and some Base Scan bonus. I didn't have the supplies at the time for the scientists/engineer, can I go back and do that?

Secondly: holy shit is there just a ton of stuff going on, trying to scan for one thing, suddenly 30 other things start going on. If a unit gets hit, they're pretty much out for half a month to a month. Gravely Wounded better be fixed/nerfed/something that is lessened later.

I would love to see some of these "optimize-it!" faggots try to explain how would they "optimize" a game. It barely has any cpu usage so the code is good. Graphically, you have the settings, optimize yourself. Disable shadows and turn off the lights, as they are designed for first-person games.

Fuck me, lads.
That was a hell of a mission. Made it into the extraction with no turns and 1 tile to spare.

However, that's not the interesting part.
In a previous mission I had to leave a soldier behind who couldn't make the extract on a mission to extract an enemy prisoner (who I assume was beaten thoroughly by the surviving crew). She was listed at 'Captured'. Fast forward a few months late, and SEELE is on the phone with a mission, and now I just did a council mission to extract that soldier from ADVENT custody and now I have my soldier back.

Well played firaxis.

the low cpu/gpu usage is a bad thing and a telltale sign of shite optimization

yes people here shouldn't expect 60fps maxxed settings on the old shitty rigs they probably have but the game just straight up runs like shit for everyone.

980 +i7 not even maxxed and i probably average 50fps

Especially when you're on a $1200 machine. It might have aged a bit, but this performance is still completely unacceptable. Especially when my fps was 120+ on EU/EW max settings and this game isn't a massive improvement graphically.

This issue isn't whether or not I can afford to upgrade, but why should I even have to?
>>
>>130961279
To be fair, 2gb vram is not gonna carry you far if its not a gaming card.

Geforce GT 610 is a 2gb card and you can barely run skyrim on low settings with it.

I don't know how you guys are having trouble running the game. I have an i7 4790k and a 980ti and it runs fine. Only dips fps on cutscenes so far. I even messed with the settings from their defaults to see if it would go down and nope.

Are you sure it isn't something else on your end?

Yet the visuals don't shed light on why this is a requirement? Or why some get piss poor performance on minimum settings?

The game even runs relatively bad on the best hardware currently available.

Posted it before, but I may as well rant again.

My PC could run it. But I'm pretty sure the problem is that since I don't have service pack 1 on Windows 7 and I run an AMD card the card's software doesn't work right since it only supports Windows 7 Service pack 1 so it won't run this game specifically, despite never having run into this problem before after several years. And I can't install service pack 1 because my Windows 7 is pirated and apparently it's impossible to fucking pirate service pack 1 without installing a bran new copy of Windows. And I can't uninstall Windows and install a new version that includes the pack or an OS that doesn't have the problem because I don't have a single thing to put an OS on that I can boot from. So if I want to play the game I literally have to buy a thumbdrive I can put an OS on, which I have no money for on account of being the poorest NEET even if they do cost nothing, pirate a new OS, put it on, wipe my harddrive with all my shit on it, reinstall everything and then it probably won't work because God hates me.

So I spent all day in the shower. Trying to scrub away the disappointment I feel.

unless you try to install steam, linux is 10x easier to use than windows, because every problem can be fixed by googling an error message and pasting one command into the terminal, whereas windows problems are mostly deliberately built into the system and hence are unfixable - that or the tools you need to fix them are left out of the OS so your grandmother won't accidentally find them and brick her shitbox while she's trying to check her emails
steam on the other hand comes from some alternate dimension where it's 100% okay to distribute your software outside of a package manager / repository system that could automatically install any dependencies, and instead they think that you should have to manually find and install two dozen 32 bit versions of non-standard libraries without ever being told which ones you need or why

but anyway, does XCOM 2 run like shit or is it okay? Like could I get a solid 60fps on a 970?

I found you need to be pretty aggressive on the timed missions. Aim for a kill every turn with a decent amount of forward movement and you'll be fine. Sometimes you gotta stop and fight, get a few kills then dash up the next bit but you get the idea. Exploit blind spots with rangers, use the mimic grenades to buy time and stuff.
Safe is good on the untimed maps but you gotta be aggressive on the timed ones.

By default it mixes characters from your pool in with it's own generated soldiers, but there's an attribute you can change that.

Not sure what it is exactly, but you can make it so that it either ignores the pool entirely, or pulls soldiers ONLY from the pool (until it's expended the pool, in which case it goes back to random generation.

Playing commander here and I have to say getting back into XCOM is fuckin awesome. Overall I have found commander difficulty fairly easy and the hardest missions are the time VIP ones, I'd recommend bringing your heavy hitters and not your hackers or snipers on that one especially early on.

Performance is ok once I tweaked the shadows option and I'm playing with FPS allover the place but it isn't even noticeable.

Bordering on 10 hours of my first campaign. I'd recommend saving before customising because it froze for me and saving before a mission just in case you don't understand it and need another go, the dark VIP in particular was confusing at first. I didn't even realise I had to rush on my first go suddenly I had 3 turns to EVAC then failed and they all dead or MIA... I feel like they need to emphasise that a bit more. But otherwise the game is good. Items though could do with some work since grenades are so useful.

Best part is the cutie ranger girl that survived the tutorial and the black man died hahahahaha

I'm finding you can fire through floors or ceilings damn easily.

Also if you get your shit kicked in commander, just restart the campaign when you lose. I am not going to say "I am doing better than I expected I would" because that would incur the heavy hand of fate. But if I were a foolish man I would say that and not simply quote it.

Also really REALLY prioritize having a corporal survive to get to sergeant ASAP so you can have five squaddies. Four is pretty much "You lose one and you're fucked".

So shut the fuck up and play it instead of looking for sympathy because you cant run it as well as you would like? Jesus you are such a whiny little bitch.

And any loot he may have dropped without you picking it up. Unless you evac out because it's a hit and run mission, then you only get what you got.

SMGs on Rangers is SICK FILTH and I love it.

>>130961846
Yes it is. You can export your soldiers into a Character Pool and then upload that fiel somewhere for others to download. I am currently in the process of creating every Jagged Alliance Heya, >>130962125 (1, 2, expansions) merc and NPC for that purpose.

Don't be a dick, it's like how almost half of the LiS general's posts keeps getting deleted and bans anons for normal discussions on the game because one person hates everybody elses opinion.

Hell we were discusing the costumes of the characters in the official concept art, but I got a 3 day ban becaususe some dingus spam reported posts to the mods saying it was /fa/ related.

Mods are at fault for not investigating and being lazy, but the fact one person being toxic is practically killing that general.

Also /k/ has to put up with lots of trolling from...well, everyone, but they are cool and accepting of discusing weapons from /tg/ /co/ and /v/ origins, so long as there is ernest discussion about the weapons.

Oh I'd never report anyone for having a regular ass discussion but every time I see some tacticool shithead whining about how the guns are dumb in a game where you shoot a 13 foot tall flesh monsters that was previously a 5'8 woman I want to blow my brains out.

So, is Bradford a BAMF or what? More like Radford, am I right? Fucker spent 20 years bulking and cutting, getting ready for his beloved commander to return so he could show of his mad gains.

I'm starting to think anons who think the invasion is happening in 2015/6 are wrong.
There are way too biographies like those.
>>
>>130966437
The game flat out states it happened in 2015
>>
>>130966437
Except the story mentions it's been decades you were under.

Dual pistols when?
>>
thread dead soon
>>
>>130966437
the game actually talks about the invasion being in feb 2015 and the world rolling over like bitches in july 2015.

I think it's just the guy who wrote the biographies is a retard.

>>130966437

It's an oversight on the devs part. Random birthdates, random bios, no linkage between the two. I can't imagine it would have been hard to have it so birthdays before X draw from this pool of bios, and birthdays after draw from that pool of bios.

Turn down shadows option to directional only FFS. Do you plebs even set everything to low then set everything to high one by one to see frames getting wrecked by it?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

>>130944316
OP INCLUDE Turning down "shadows" option to the lowest (directional only) setting fixes many many FPS issues. After that turn AA and ambient occlusion stuff down and all the stuff at the bottom with check boxes off.

You should have received two keys - one for the game, one for the resistance shit. Activate both. If you did that, you get Resistance Kevlar, some character customization and a special mission, AFAIK, for your soldier. Not 100% on the last one.

The fucking timed defusal is pissing me off. Every fucking time I am maybe one or two points away from getting to it, but it's not in time. And they always fucking hide one last final pod right next to it so you can't just rush in and defuse it.

>>130967341

Lovely thing is:

-One time it was in the room on the opposite side of the stairway. I had to see it to be able to send the gremlin, and to be able to see it would activate the pod on the other side (after a nasty shootout with another pod).

-Another time it was in a train with another pod after again, a vicious fight.

Technically the 2nd one was solvable if I had saved an explosive - blow open the wall to be able to send in the gremlin.

Holy shit guys

Serial is absolutely bonkers. It *refunds* your actions completely. I just killed 3 low health ayy's with him, and then used his actual turn to run into cover to flank another for a 4th kill. This ability would be completely broken with Rangers, but even on a Specialist it is incredible.

Thank you BASED Firaxis for your quality assurance

It's a typo. It is meant to say "marketed", as in, the ayys want to sell your soldier's organs. It seems that they might be a perfect athletic specimen.

GUUUUUUUYS what if the battles we fought in XCOM EW/EU were actual battles but instead of us fighting ayyyy the ayyyy used the chip in the commander brain to make it look like we were fighting the ayy while the truth was that WE played as the ayy and we fought xcom/other humans.

Playing on commander here, and stun lancers have done nothing but 1 hit kill, not stun, my guys the moment they come into contact.

The whole dash+melee system seems broken as shit across the board. I also dont get why they gave the ranger two up close weapons and then made the shotgun reasonable at medium range.

Also my god the bugs. Importing/Creating characters has been a nightmare.

WHY DO I HAVE TO SELECT A SOLDIER IN THE MISSION PREP FROM EDIT->GEAR, UNEQUIP HIS GUN, REMOVE HIM FROM THE ROSTER, EQUIP THE RIGHT SOLDIER AND EQUIP THE GUN
PS I CANT EVEN DO THIS IF THE FIRST SOLDIER IS WOUNDED, WHICH BY THE WAY IS THE ONLY REASON I WOULD TAKE HIS MODDED GUN OFF HIM

Jesus christ did noone test this shit. It's infuriating trying to gear up for a mission.
