To be fair, th AWC building description implies that the bonus should be retroactively appliable. That'd like calling a mod that fixes smoke grenades cheating.

>>135791934
Yeah, I just don't want them to leave the work all up to modders and just give us MECs as official content. But at the same time I struggle to imagine what one could add as soldier customization beyond what already was in Enemy Within and the aforementioned psionics class hybrids. Except the latter would involve rebuilding already finished content from scratch, something Firaxis very rarely does.

I'm a filthy cheater and there's nothing you purist autists can do about it.

Shooting is more than just looking down a scope and pulling a trigger, you have to have one eye open to spot and track the targets, and then you only close it when you're going for the kill

>>135792392
You're both right and wrong. 3D vision works by having two sets of images sent to the brain where it puts them together into one 3D image
That's why when you see an IMAX movie you have to wear the glasses, the movie is actually playing TWICE and the glasses filter one of the films for each eye. Also, how the Oculus Rift works, but more direct.
However, moving your head will have nearer objects move more than father objects, allowing one eye to pick up cues on how far everything is. This is why birds constantly bob their heads. They don't get overlapping vision fields so they use the movement cues to provide a pseudo-depth perception.
Anyone that gets blinded in one eye has seen the world in its true 3D format, so their brain will easily be able to tell where everything is, near, far, wherever you are

That's strange, Armor Variety has been working just fine for me, even earlier today. I know Anarchy's Children screwed up the invisible leg and arm options and caused a fuckton of clipping as a result, but other than that I haven't had any problems.

I'm genuinely losing my mind over this. One second the game works fine. An hour later I boot it up again and the menus are invisible. No mods have updated in the meantime and launching with mods all ticked off still doesn't work.

You what? The T3 Shredder Cannon can rip through a pack of enemies, destroy their cover AND strip them of most of their armor, and it's not even the best one. Not having the item slot is a bit of a downside but on the other hand there's no individual item in the game that can do what they do. Are you sure you're not confusing T2 and T3 heavy weapons?

A very vague "Doom is coming" narrative that the new games want to push. Presumably the Ethereals are on the run from something that either created them [as hinted by the first game] or is hunting them [as hinted by XCOM 2], and which is apparently currently sleeping under the Earth's seabed, similarly to Terror from the Deep.

I personally hope XCOM in the future goes full Lovecraft and reveal that the aliens are like the Mi-Go running the hell away from hungry cosmic entities and that Cthulhu is literally a character.

That is basically what Terror from the Deep was, and what Enemy from the Deep will be [I'm calling the name in advance].
The only problem is the fact that it would exarcerbate a problem that normal XCOM already suffers from, how the hell an underfunded and understaffed organization can pose effective resistance against an alien force that has no shortage of material, personnel, and logistics. The first game handwaves it by making it all a big secret test, the second by making the entire ayylium infrastructure dependant on the Elders' continued existence. But that's already stretching it, and you'd need to up the ante severely to have a half dozen guys succesfully gun down Azathoth/Cthulhu/what have you and have it not be just outrageously immersion-breaking.

Well by the end of XCOM 2 XCOM is hardly a secret. And we're looking at a situation where the world falls somewhere between the humanity that rushes to the XCOM/Resistance banner and whatever alien sympathizer government holds on supported by ADVENT.

In that environment, or after that environment, maybe Bradford can get some GODDAMN FUNDING for the sea war.

If Enemy from the Deep DOES keep up with the first two games' implications that whatever is laying beneath the oceans is bad enough to have Ethereals shaking in terror, it'd require quite a substantial technology jump though. You couldn't start the game with ballistic weapons or any underwater equivalent, you'd have to show XCOM salvaging alien tech and making plasma weapons standard early game tech, and for the late game have your heavy units be literally shooting localized black holes at the Cthulhu spawn and their guns be firing probability-altering matter-nulifying quantum physics technobabble.

Even in the timelines where you do beat back the aliens and destroy the Temple Ship, the Uber Ethereal openly tells you that everything up until you setting foor in the ship was a result of the aliens going easy on humanity in order to have you develop a suitable psionically active candidate.

Although all that does is raise questions, such as whatever the hell the Uber Ethereal is doing in XCOM 2 by urging you to kill Angelis and the reigning Ethereal council.

No, it's Enemy Below
DLC will be:
Angels Above- unit customization shit to look like King Neptune's Army
Swimming With the Fishes- sea life themed customization, along with new weapons and a mission line that has XCom recovering items dropped off in the ocean to uncover a threat on land
and then there's the full expansion that has volcanic enemies in the mid-ocean ridge and hotspots due to mutated life from geothermal vents, where you have to put down an attempted attack by mutated tubeworms that operate against the regular ayys and Xcom. Its called Enemy Over There, Infront Of You But Slightly To Your Right

>>135802058

>>135802202
It's a very short comms message in the final mission, in between the Angelis Ethereal swearing that they didn't really plan to genocide all humans, honest, you get a message from the first game's Uber Ethereal [that is otherwise not at all mentioned in the game, unless you believe that HE is the Ethereal that originally inhabited your Avatar body], and he shows knowledge of the fact that timelines have somehow been altered and that you HAVE beaten them before, and asks you to do so again.

So I'm looking at mods for XCOM Enemy Within to mix the game up a bit but not make it even more stupidly difficult than it already is (planning on doing a classic ironman playthrough then go from there)

I've heard a lot of stuff about long war but don't want random arbitrary bullshit difficulty tacked on.

Would Beagle's mod of it be a good choice or should I look at something else? Aka this one

The armor in XCOM 2 is leagues better than XCOM EU. I greatly prefer it. The amount of customization they put into it in the base game alone is simply marvelous. The gene mods in EW always giving you a sleeveless douche always pissed me off.

That out of the way, the fact that there are so many exposed necks in XCOM 2 is a weird sight, yeah. At least we do have mods to clear that up. It's the reason I like the tac mask and other lower props so much.

All these videoes and complaints about multiplayer, finding a match. All of them caused because they don't play the ranked servers filled with russians.

What do people think, that some guy playing ranked is going to be more impressive than someone playing unranked? Filthy casualties

Spoilery questions ahoy:

Did XCOM take down the Temple Ship and then get hit by a second, stronger wave? Or is XCOM only canon up to a few months in? If the former, what ever happened to the Volunteer? Firaxis said we'd see him/her again.

Why did XCOM not think to continue the "prototype" MEC or Genemod projects?

Why didn't we build shivs along with those mostly-usely gremlins?

Did the team make it out through the Commander's opened portal?

After defeating our psionic mentors twice (saying original ending is canon), do you think XCOM can take on the coming, unknown threat?

XCOM: V

Is a 3rd person rapid movement hallway shooter where you pilot a rocket propelled robot suit equipped Dr. Vahlen as she rampages through ayy filled corridors.

Each level ends with her reaching a safe room, splashing some beakers and vials together, screaming "SCIENCE" before kicking out the back door and continuing her rocket-murder.

>>135806849
>>135801701

>>135805927
the problem with the first order is that we have no fucking clue who they are, where they came from, what their goals are, or why they even exist considering we just had a massive galactic war and whatnot

those things are kind of important, ok you show them massacring a village to get me to not like them but I need more than that to get emotionally invested

>>135806849
There are multiple timelines.
XCOM 2's timeline begins when the organization collapses almost instantly before alien attacks, without even having had the time to figure out the properties of meld. The Volunteer is not at all mentioned. But the other timeline, where XCOM wins, is ALSO canon, because the Uber Ethereal manifests itself in the game and urges you to kill Angelis and her council.

I suspect some manner of time-fuckery is involved. Maybe one of the expansions will reveal that aliens have access to rudimentary time travel, but that it's such a dangerous piece of tech that not even the Ethereals themselves are entirely in agreement over wether or not using it is something they should do. Thus the schism in their ranks.

>>135806143
No one is saying it sucked, we're all saying it could have and should have been better.

Look at something like say the Robocop reboot for example, that took the film in a completely different direction and was about drone warfare and the dangers of unlimited surveilance instead of 80's corporate culture and urban decay. Despite its faults as a film that made it feel far more timely than if they had just remade the original as TFA did.

>>135806849
>Did XCOM take down the Temple Ship and then get hit by a second, stronger wave? Or is XCOM only canon up to a few months in? If the former, what ever happened to the Volunteer? Firaxis said we'd see him/her again.

I'm pretty sure the "template" at the ADVENT Forge is supposed to be the Volunteer

>>135806849
XCOM only lasted a short while during the original invasion, IIRC there were turncoats in the Council

with the former point in mind, XCOM never got to the point where they had sufficient research available to indicate shit like MECs and gene-mods were even plausible possibilities

the absence of SHIVs hasn't been formally addressed, though it probably has something to do with the difficulty of extracting a large combat robot via a rope into an airborne dropship

>>135806849
XCom got BTFO before lasers and due to countries dropping out due to traitors
No Meld for MEC/genes
No real way to deploy them and recover them
Yes, the squad got out

>the issue arises when you take the focus away from blowing shit up to focus on political/SJW bullshit.

I seriously doubt that'll happen in star wars, people say that's what happened with Rey but i don't think that's right. I think the problem is that they basically just mashed together the original trilogy in one movie, which meant that they had to rush Rey's development in a single movie, which ended up being shit.

In other words, she is not a marysue because sjws, she is a marysue because of shitty writing/planning.

That'd be sweet.

Does anyone wanna talk about XCOM?

I'm thinking about never using a sharpshooter again, holy shit going balls out with multiple of each class is WAY more fun than having to constantly worry about repositioning and making sure this piece of shit can make it to the evac

The moment i heard that Dr Doom's name wasn't Victor Von Doom i knew it was over, didn't even watch the movie.

>>135809491
Did I say I thought that way? When I said "SJW bullshit" I was referring to the current overwhelming push for a focus on diversity to the point where it becomes painfully detrimental to quality.

I'm all for diversity, but people shouldn't use cinema as a means to push political agendas. Wishful thinking since it's been happening since the creation of modern cinema itself, but still.

Is there a mod or something that allows you to bring a soldier back to life?

I just had my colonel sharpshooter glitch through the floor on ironman

>>135809956
I didn't really feel that Rey was a mary sue but she was a bland character which is a much bigger sin imo.

>>135809258
Riot shield. It's a primary weapon that a unit can use with a pistol. It gives it high cover at all times but can be flanked. It lowers mobility but raises defense, of course. A friendly unit behind the one holding the riot shield gets medium cover. It would need its own class to work the shield as a primary.

I liked sniper pairs in EW but one (preferably with a mobility boost) is usually sufficient in 2.

>>135809258
Basically the idea that's been repeated in a couple threads now, overhaul the entire psionics system so it becomes a sort of prestige system you can apply to your soldiers that are detected as psionically active, giving them new abilities that are unique and dependant on their class.
Psionic Rangers get energy blades that do a small amount of AoE damage to complement the main slash and turn invisible, Psionic Grenadiers can partially reflect damage and cause explosions with their mind/launch grenades at longer range without needing a launcher, Psionic Specialists can apply a number of positive or negative effects in an area, Psionic Sharpshooters can teleport and fire charged psionic barrages, Wrath Cannon-style. And naturally, they all have pretentious latin names to indicate the hybrid class they're part of.

>>135809579

commander abilities/deployables in general would be cool

>call in drop pods that slam into the ground, panels blow off, and a shiv rolls out for you to use
>or include supplies, like healing and replenishing utility items and reloading the weapon of the soldier who uses it
>call in thick smoke bombs that block sight lines entirely, allowing you to reposition or get your shit together for a turn
>other shit that utility items might cover like recon scans, decoy or mimic beacons, but without forcing you to take those items
>strafing/bomb runs
>call in the skyranger to swap out squadmembers
>to use any of the call ins you have to fabricate the supplies in the workshop to create a stockpile of what you can call in (at the expense of long term investments), then you can only call in so many things in a single mission

>wanting to cheat in ironmeme

>>135809258
i do want that breaching charge, especially if it would make pods unable to activate that turn if affected by the blast. it would need small maps to work, though.

the one i had in mind was an artillery strike/bomb drop. you target a 5 radius circle and, next turn, a bomb or group of bombs drops on it, fuckin up everything inside.

Saving and exiting will sometimes reset your soldiers to a position where they are not stuck. Just in case you didn't try that.

Because, you know, he was a decent character and wasn't just black for the sake of having a black character in the movie.

Lando was literally the only black man in the galaxy for years. And he was a side character at best

nobody was mad that Mace Windu was black and he was most certainly not a decent character and was just black fo the sake of having samuel l jackson in the movie

Helldivers call-in support would be pretty awesome. It would have to have some draw back, like one time uses and stuff, but it sounds great.
>>135810684
Yeah, it'd need its own class. I was thinking it could be made more useful by having "taunt" abilities that forced enemy fire and increased its defense. Also a bonus to people covering behind the Riot trooper. It would be more of a support class, throwing grenades and being mobile cover and shooting pistols.

it'd be a neat support class, they can just replace support/specialist with it and it can be the new medic and general support grenadier, throwing flash and smoke grenades n shit

Uses a small SMG as its weapon paired with the shield, reasonably high hit chance, but most will be grazing hits

Then they can make an overwatch class with a DMR :)

you could turn it into a watered-down grenadier that can do buffs on friendly units.
