Since there has been no word (at all) from the guy who said he'll do it,

I'll have a go at making the Wakaliwood voicepack. If he ever comes round though, I'm okay if he posts his - his might turn out different, perhaps even better than mine. But I'll give it a shot.

Not sure if I can pull it off though

>>135934902
let me ask you a question, why is there so much furry porn of particular characters and obscure fetishes? The answer is simple, furries are more willing than others to commission artists to draw something for them if the thing they like is rare or they want to see their character involved in it.

If you're as much of an autist as your posting has thusfar implied why not make it a reality by tossing a few bucks to an XCOM2 modder to make it a reality? I'm sure there are many who would be happy to do it for you and believe me nothing is going to happen from you begging here.

>>135936302
i'll post some more tomorrow, its a FAT book like 200 pages i think so theres a lot to dump

>>135936358
Actually....

I would totally commission an Xcom 2 modder for it.

I just need to know one who ( a) is reliable and ( b) takes commissions in the first place.

Guys, being fucked over by unrealistic game mechanics I am trying to figure out how covers work.
Is it true that only 5th block will have uncovered aim towards X, meanwhile 3 could go as much left as possible and still have full cover penalty?

>>135940784
on what difficulty are you playing

>>135941265
yes
on 5th youll have a flank
why is this unrealistic, are you telling me someone would not glue themself to the cover trying to avoid your shots?

>>135941265
nah, 3 will have a +20 aim bonus for Good Angle

>>135941456
I don't disagree even if it was unrealistic to give better gameplay
>>135941505
That can't be right.
My sniper was 13 blocks left and 5 blocks up and still had full cover penalty.
it's better angle than this pic.

>>135941650
in EU and im sure a mod in XCOM2 adds aiming angles that does exactly what you want

It's not what I want, I'm just trying to figure how game mechanics work so I can use and overcome them.

>>135941650
the only thing that removes cover bonuses are flanking and getting rid of the cover via nades/skills

>>135941813
visor on a spartan helmet should be totally opaque

>>135941813
More options is always better, even if it does look a bit odd.

>>135941813

Looks fine, but i personally don't like helmets that don't cover the entire face. I like faceless spooky troops.

>>135941813
>Those fingers
Your screenshot is the first time I've actually really paid attention to the hands in this game. Those fingers actually look pretty darned on point.

>>135941896
>>135941973
That option is included, this is just one of the optional helmets with a transparent visor

>>135941840
how did you get so many kills with fresh ppl

>>135941851
its really simple anon
cover needs to be removed or you need to flank
flanking is what it is, literally flanking

high ground is great too
closer the better, unless its a sniper rifle

>>135961286
Nah I'm just bored of it. We need decent DLC and decent mod overhauls. I'm guessing we will get all those in 1-3 years time.

The story was okay but i feel the game is missing alot compared to EW but mecha and gene mods were DLC along with second wave options.

Everything got researched really quickly too and resistance outposts are kinda useless if they have no resistance members to help fend off an enemy attack.

The game does feel empty in customization too and possibly in tactics and weapons.

Do we know what the DLCs may possibly contain? im guessing Shens last gift has to be AI mechs/shivs

>>135959548
Bruh.

>>135962249
It's also missing the added layer of psionics potential, which was inexplicably turned into a separate class, which makes it boring in my opinion.

This keeps coming up, but psionics should've been a subclass whose skills changed with your main class and synergized with their base abilities [something something Ranger with a psionic blade], not an operative with a goofy Psi Amp.

Also, if Shen's secret class is not a MEC but just a goddamn SHIV it'd be extremely disappointing. Unless they scale that damn thing up until it's literally a Metal Gear.

You either have it or you dont.

Metal Gear Shiv would be a nice touch, but i am expecting something like that or really upgraded mechs with PSI powers because why not.

>>135962715
Unless you like playing dress up then tactically it does feel a bit empty.

>>135963087
The game needs longer missions with multiple objectives after each objective is achieved. Turning a one objective into a two objective would cause sacrifices to be made compared to what it is now. mid to late game should just add more objectives per mission to put a strain on your super soldiers.

>>135963087
If Shens Last Gift being called Lazarus DLC in the database and whatnot does indeed have to do with it being dead soldiers rezzed as a MEC type class, I could definitely see it having something unique based on what class the dead soldier was, including getting some kind of Psi MEC from a dead Psi Operative.

>>135963087
If you mean like talents, perks and skills that are more than just ssmall stats, then you're comparing it to Long War not EW.
I'm definitely with that other guy though aghast at your statement, since custom classes, aliens, AI, and many other things are accessible even from small .ini edits.

EW did add some more levels, LW took it further.

I just mean at the base game, ini edits can be done but right now it is lacking like EU did at the start until DLC expanded it further but with modding for X2 going further than before, i did expect X2 to be bigger and better.

Good job modding is easier to do now.

>>135964172
Do you really need something like a MEC if nobody even died? Also you could technically get whoever you want to be your mighty robot warrior killed on purpose if you really must have one.

This is all just speculation in the first place though, just based on the fact the DLC is referred to both as Shen's Last Gift and Lazarus.

INTRIGUING

>>135965026
Well the discussion doesn't even really boils to wether or not you need the help, it's perfectly possible to play through the game without a Psi Operative, but a MEC class based on basically necromancy isn't a very good idea because since losing soldiers is not quite really a mandatory process unless you're playing at the highest difficulty levels or is this crazy person >>135940179, you'll run into the Shadow of Mordor problem of having a cool feature that you can only benefit from if you're not good at the game or intentionally play sloppily. And intentionally getting your soldiers killed for that reason looks like really poor game design to me.

But yes, this is all speculation. Personally I'd rather believe that the Lazarus that the DLC references is not actually the MEC, but SHEN HIMSELF, who will probably be revealed as having somehow transferred his consciousness to some computer somewhere and comes back to help XCOM with his cybernetics surgery. And freak Lily out.

In vanilla, if you get an ability that your soldier already has from the AWC, for example unlocking Deadeye for a Sharpshooter at Sergeant rank, is it supposed to still let you pick the other perk in that rank?

So I just used Bluescreen rounds for the first time.

What the fuck?

Still don't get what's so incredibly amazing about the chess thing.

Just switch the pieces to the right squares, why be so autistic about it? It's not even funny.

Its nice, we already have ADVENT slice of life, its good to get XCOM in there.

>>135969692
I'm pretty sure they do, some of there tweets are suspicious, and honestly, it just seems like good business to monitor your communities for feedback.

Who would really win, a Sectopod(ca. 2035) or Metal Gear REX?

And then they include shirtless, sports bras, and short shorts in the next dlc, hmmmm....

I wonder what they think of our memes.

>>135970196
While I do want to believe, that DLC was announced before launch, and could well have been completely planned out and or finished by then

And one more from a darker age when break los was both a legitimate tactic and a meme to end all memes.

>>135970367
Legendary, duh. Or Ironman commander if you haven't done that yet.

I am waiting for a mod to add a shirt like pic.

>>135970367

Legendary Ironmeme of course.

>>135970367
Ironmeme, gimmick mod runs, more enemies mod runs.

>>135970367
Beat it on Legend, beat it on Commander again, beat with mods to change things around, beat it on Ironman + any of the above, go for achievements, ect.

Or play another game.

>>135970367
Ironmeme Commander.
Possibly with mods.

>>135970320
Were those really that bad? I thought they were kinda funny.

Actually one more to end this on a brighter note. This encompasses pretty much the entire Long War era.
