>Not all of the stories we hid were sad, though we felt it was important to always convey hope hidden throughout the ADVENT occupied environments. In the Slums, if you find yourself near an eyeglasses store, you might spot tiny cars on some of the 3D printers instead of eyeglass frames. These toy cars are used throughout the Slums but in this story they are used to decorate the clinic and apartment above and it also gave me a reason to place them all around the environment. Above the store lives the optometrist that manages the clinic and creates the toy cars. We had the idea that this father had lost his family in the war and moved to a City Center to seek a new life. Since he only made it to the Slums, he spends his nights off 3D printing toy cars for the neighborhood children. On his back porch, he even has a drop cloth and a spray can that he left out so newly varnished toy cars could air dry. Even in an oppressed environment like the Slums, the occupants have found a way to bring joy and hope to their lives and others around them.

Well, I've managed to add the Escalation classes to the mod roulette. let me fucking tell you, figuring out how to add the rocket launcher as an option and getting it working was a hassle, mostly because of how the Workshop throws shit into a folder of effectively random numbers.

Now I just have the rest of Grimy's classes, and all of the Long War Perk Pack to add.

The aliens won't know what hit them, because my soldiers won't even know what they're shooting.

>>149183295
Can't you use Notepad++?

>>149183295
>Long War Perk Pack

Is it actually balanced and each class fun to use and useful or is it like the old long war when it had like 2 useful mechs and rest were shit.

>>149180087
>Go up to blade a muton because I like the jumping animation on easy kills I know won't trigger new pods

Swords really were a mistake.

>>149183763
>balanced
Haha, not even close.

>>149183567
I could, if I was writing code myself and cared to. All I'm really doing here is enumerating stuff present in other mods, simply copy/paste jobs with a little bit of figuring out what things are actually called and whether they bind to a primary, secondary, nothing, or a utility item. No actual coding on my part.

>>149183763
Fuck if I know. I literally downloaded it for the sole purpose of adding to this class roulette mod.

>>149179647
I would a snek mod if they actually looked like this.

>>149183763
It's balanced for the upcoming LW Alien Pack.

Until then it's HORRIBLY BROKEN.

>>149183834
>>149183972
So basically it is either horrible to use/has OP classes.

Any other mods which have useful classes to add or is it more of the same shit?

Speaking of, have they fixed LW Toolbox's Hidden Potential yet?

>>149183972
LW Aliens must be Ruler-tier if that's the case.
And even then, some classes are simply useless compared to others (Sharpshooters).

>>149184153
>horrible to use
That's not what they said.

>Ranger gets Rupture
Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. Oh ayys, you're in for it now.

>>149184250
But i also put OP classes next to it, either way it could be horrible to use if it has OP classes making the game a cakewalk.

Then again i want 12 soldiers to start with hence why i want extra roles.

>>149184369
>having a guaranteed critshot on a class which should have guaranteed crits anyway

>>149189090
Upgrades?

>>149189559
I meant the options.
The Absolutely Critical, Marathon and Save Scum seem nice.

>>149189664
Ah. Not Created Equally, Hidden Potential and Red Fog are god-tier. I like Absolutely Critical too, even if it's a bit casual.

>Save Scum
It's not like you're going to savescum, right, anon?
Right?

>>149190052
n-no
i just save once on the start of every mission because my game loves crashing
i USUALLY don't restart when failures/deaths happen though

So /xcg/, what rank do you really start personalizing a new recruit? Do you layer it out, or do you decide that once they hit a certain rank you're just going to fully flesh them out?

I wait for at least Lieutenant before I start modifying recruits at all. If they live long enough to hit Major I go the full nine yards.

>>149190953
If they are coming on a mission, they get customized. If they have any rank other then rookie they get the full works.

>>149190953
LT? That's pretty late.
I always wait until SGT.

It's not enough if they survive one mission, they gotta prove that they are able to survive.

205KB, 1920x1080px

>>149190953

Lt too, i feel like that's the point where they can survive through fuck ups, so the chances of my time being wasted customizing them are much lesser.

Then i usually leave them as they are until i unlock a new weapon tier, or if something happens to the guy like being seriously injured, or being kidnapped by Advent.

This guy was a happy guy, but he sacrificed himself to allow the A team to escape, Advent took him and after he was rescued he was never the same, now he is covered in scars and has his shit all fucked up.

Expansion when?

>>149195497
5 and half months.

>>149190953
at the start of the campaign i only fix stupid shit that the rooks are created with, like the stupid ski mask and MGS balaclava clipping all over the place and because i use Rookies Variety they some times come in bright obnoxious neon colors that i have to tone down

after that i also wait til Lt to go full dress up game with them

>>149211774
It's not a bug, it's a feature

It's been like that ever since X1, with Alloy Shivs being portable low cover to both you and the ayys. MECs too, since using One For All meant that an ayy could take cover at them, and if the MEC tried to shoot them, they'd suffer the full cover penalty despite the fact that when they shoot, they will go out of one for all mode and then shoot

>>149212264
Okay, but I mean, the SPARK should still be able to shoot things directly next to it without giving them heavy cover. That's the bug I was referring to.

>>149212335
Well then don't let the ayys get that close to your troops :^)

>>149213583
I'd say just a Legend playthrough without Ironman. It's already a significant jump.

I've heard doing ABA+ and the more pods on Commander is another idea though.

>Shen's Last Gift released
Worth it?

>>149213792
Doing it with ballistics on Legend is probably just flat out impossible. I think you could get away with it on Commander and lower, but I really don't see how you can do it without Magnetic on Legend.

Stream is Over.

>>149213792
You can do the mission from the moment you get it. Julian is going to rape your face a few times over but it's still beatable. If you don't feel like taking on a 90hp sectopod with ballistics and a five man squad, then just wait for mag weapons.

>>149213984
nooo you spoiled it i asked for it though

>>149213881

Yeah, it has a cool mission and the sparks are ok.

shen can kill everything if you wait for her abilities to reset, but then you lose out on the juicy XP, and get a guy or 2 dead or injured or both

then wait lure it to a generator and mass MC the suicide robits (allahu akbar with all of them, it only lasts 2 turns)

I have an occasional use for a SPARK, so I don't mind the unit itself. The creation of them is absolutely obnoxious though, particularly eating up 10 days in the Proving Grounds.

So will there be anymore dlc or expansions made for the game? All the dlc thus far seem a little light content-wise, they're good, but nothing as substantial as EW.

>>149259557
While nothing has been confirmed anywhere, content was found in the SDK(that was removed with the addition of Shen's Last Gift), which had a lot of new references/content like maps, all marked as XPACK.

Isn't Killzone better than Double Tap in that regard, since as long as enemies keep moving/attacking the sniper will keep shooting until out of ammo?

Killzone can't crit and has overwatch aim penalties. Not nearly as reliable. I would 100% prefer double tap. Also double tap doesn't have a cool down.

>>149265776

there's a reason that assault, gunner and infantry were incredible classes in LW

multiple actions are fantastic, my first legendary playthrough had almost everyone get salvo, including my gunslinger.

I have no idea how to balance timers in ABA with Pods+. I've set them to 99 and tried playing as if I was rushed to see what the ideal numbers would be.

Early missions could be done with vanilla ones(although just scraping by). But then you reach late game and this is the shit you see. At the start of the mission I moved 3 tiles with the first soldier and already triggered a 6 man pod of MECs and ADVENT shit. Outside of what's in the picture, there's still another 6 man pod of ayys not far from these guys. This is horrendous

>>149267241
Well, we're pinned down. Time for an ambush.

What's our play here, /xcg/? I can overwatch everyone and hit one of the groups with a rocket, but that underutilizes the Double Tap and Bullet Storm abilities we picked up. Maybe we only overwatch the rookies (the point of armor is because nanovests were replaced with plated vests that give armor rather than health.), Rocket one of the groups (but which one), and try to pick off any survivors with two rifle attacks?

Or something else, maybe. What do, /xcg/?

>>149267956
Definitely rocket one group, if they get close you will have trouble hitting with the sniper rifle. You're gonna be extremely close to the enemy, I would say don't overwatch since you can move close for range bonus, flank, and crit chance.

Not really sure which group you should rocket.

>>149267956
Rocket the troopers, unload on the mecs. They won't run for cover, so overwatch isn't necessary.

>>149268290

Does /xcg/ bother with EXO and Spider suits?

>>149270843
I do. Spider Suits give you a free action and vertical mobility. Exo suits give rockets which are cover removal and damage if you don't need an extra inventory slot on that soldier.

>>149269392
After that, mission went more or less smoothly. Let's see what we got.

>>149270843
I usually build 1 Spider Suit (upgraded to Wraith later on, obv) and 1-2 EXO Suits (again, upgraded to WAR later on).

The Spider Suit usually goes on a Rogue or SpecOps, for scouting purposes. The EXO usually goes on a Grenadier, a Field Medic, or another soldier who is primarily there for support purposes as it gives them another support option.

>>149266556
Not really, i didn't found it
It was in one guy folder in imgur and he dropped the link a while ago

>>149270843

if you have the resources I like to put exos on essentially everyone

last legendary game was with escalation classes + lucubrations classes + specialist only, so exos were a tradeup between higher damage, greater blast radius rocketeer rockets (or shredder rockets) or pinpoint accurate mobile rockets/shredder cannons

Just admit it Anon, you like it.

>>149270843
I don't think it's viable to waste elerium cores on the lower tier suits, so I build one spider-suit and wait for powered WAR suits, since rockets are too situational to use in the early game.

>>149272968
How is grappling less situational though?

>>149272826
Yea, Grimy's is ludicrous and honestly I ended up removing those weapons from my soldiers and not using them.

I had an assault rifle that had
>Superior Stock
>Superior Repeater
>Mod that's basically shadowstrike
>A mod that adds +3 damage, hit or miss

I gave it to my LW ranger who had sat fire. He could ambush pods by himself and kill everything, and was pretty much unstoppable due to doing 6 damage on MISSES.

>>149273075
Grappling is very useful for snipers and the like, because it DOESN'T USE AN ACTION, so you can grapple up and still have bluemoves and snipe a target better. Rockets are just longer ranged grenades in functionality. I'd make more EXO suits if the upgrade mod was standard, but it's too much of a cheat for me as it stands.

>>149273083
The Gremlin (Protocol) & Psi (Amp) mods are really neat though.

Barrier Amp - Ability to give ally an X hp barrier for 3 turns. X Charges.

If your into lewd mods lover's lab has been at work with soldier appearance customization link at the bottom of /xcg/ pastebin
Julian Gallop working on his new game. Looks good. Stuff in OP.
Alot of cool tier 3 weapons are being released and actively worked on. Plenty of modern day guns as well.
Long War Alien pack is supposed to release Soon (tm).
Mods like Guerilla War and ABA are popular for upping difficulty

Beagles are slow on the youtube side. He said he's going to release more youtube vids on other games, whether that happens or not is a coinflip. Currently he streams X2 on Thursday and Friday and is towards the end of a modded campaign where a single soldier has risen to absolute god hood. Currently experiencing technical difficulties, hopefully the save file isn't rip.

>>149275064
Anarchy's Children is a hit or miss. Personally a miss for me and it only served to annoy me more(accidentally mousing over a torso from the pack removes any normal arms selected). Decent selection of stuff though if I ever decide to go for a wacky campaign. 4/10

Alien Hunters is a challenge DLC. New shit, new mission, and new magnificence in the way of three aliens designed solely to make your life as miserable as possible. There's a lot of interesting new loot and armor though, and the mission does have a bit of decent lore as to what a certain someone has been up to. 8/10

Shen's Last Gift? The mission is very long and a fun challenge to go through if you do it when you get it(very early in the campaign). SPARKs are neat, but their usefulness is very debated and in modded campaigns where the enemy gets buffed, they have little going for them. Fun to have around still. 7/10

I know this might seem like something minor, but...

Is there any mod/way to remove the alien target icons when a soldier is taking a shot? The ones with which you can mouse over to view an alien in your LOS with the %, as well as clicking on it to fire.

The reason I ask is because the game calculates everything beforehand. If you launch a grenade, the moment you click fire the game will know if cover will be removed or not. Subsequently, the icons are also displayed. So if you fire a grenade, and see an alien icon turns yellow, you know cover has been removed before the grenadier even gets a chance to begin his animation. It's worse with normal shots. If I fire with something, and see that there is one less alien icon in the list, I immediately know it's a kill before the soldier gets a chance to shoot.

It's really bugging me, because something that minor is really taking all the suspense out of your actions.

I know there is a mod that removes you're all display information while taking shots or doing stuff. Then it re-displays and updates all the information once the action is done. I believe its called Clean Cinematic (or something). Would that work?

>>149276628
As the other guy said Clean CInematic does this

It doesn't fix it everytime and it usually doesn't work most of the time for grenades but it does for shots

>>149276818
>>149277084
Thank you so much guys, that's perfect

I love the steam workshop. It's amazing that how even for things such as minor as that, you'll have people making mods to fix it. Praise Jake

I was in the same situation and I got completely overwhelmed. Don't be afraid to retreat completely and dash away into the fog away from everyone. Evac the moment you can, the final reinforcement pod drops even tougher shit than what you're seeing here

It's still pretty close, you can take down most structures almost entirely, yeah? I know it's not the same as that one famous Apocalypse gif where they're tearing those stairs down, but still.

I don't know either, man. I know there's a good amount of skill involved, but it feels like there's almost as much luck involved as well. You're going to end up throwing away troops, and you have to choose which ones you want to throw away. The geoscape is just as brutal too since everything takes so much god damned time.

It may just not be the series for us.

how the fuck am i supposed to kill this stupid floater boss

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>149287692
>It may just not be the series for us.
I refuse to believe that. Legend is certainly not for everyone, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
After all, if you could just get by on good tactics alone, it'd be too easy, right?

>>149288364
Break los.

>>149278090
Me too, plus the mod that allows Advent reinforcements to attack on deployment. And my mod is currently bugged and I'm not getting the random rookies.

I'm save scumming the shit out of my last turn before evac because this is bullshit and I'm a pussy

Does anyone else have an issue with XCOM 2 taking a long time to close? I'm not talking about the cloud saving part, I mean how Steam leaves it 'Running' for a good 30 seconds each time I exit the program. It seems rather unusual.

>>149290724
Probably mods. I get that too.

Well, this is new. Time to start clearing out everything, I guess.

>>149291941

This happened to me once when i removed depth of field and i didn't restart my game, just restarting it fixed it though.

>>149292137
I didn't change any of my video options, only thing done was unsubscribing from the mod. I deleted my config files, and then used that Remove Missing Mods mod just now to clear its hooks from my save files. Not seeing it now in my new mission.

If I see it again I guess I'll just try restarting first. I needed to do the remove missing mods anyways, so eh. Definitely weird stuff though.

>>149292915
>deleted my config files
Do that every time you unsubscribe without disabling a mod first and you'll be fine.

I kinda dig that purple glow.

>>149296407
It 'might' be okay if it had been static, but it was actually quickly flickering between the purple, and the green you see on the walls near the windows. The whole scene, flickering between green and purple.

I should have recorded it.

why is the armory on the avenger kind of shit? i kill one advanced advent mec, and suddenly the armory says i've killed 20 of them
it seems like it'd be kind of neat, if morbid, but the numbers just being whatever they want is weird

Note not only what they happen to be carrying as their weapon, but the fact that the snek on the right, as her activation move, tongue grabbed my soldier and then bounded her

Snek deleted ADVENTbook, and hit the gym. Her swole results are showing off nicely!

Oh well.

At least something to heard on the radio.

How did Firaxis seriously think 'Protect the Device' missions were possibly a good idea to add to release?

They're the worst mission type by far. It's not even remotely a contest. They're the most cancerous thing in this game, and you're basically doomed to fail them unless you're lucky, on a low difficulty, or have a lot of mods/ini tweaks going in your favor.

The enemies get an ass load of troops that all spawn around the device. Triggering their pods causes them to attack not your troops, but both your troops and the device. On top of this, even trying to trigger them all they're all in such small pods that one small untriggered pod is likely to still get yet another free shot on the objective during alien activity.

How the FUCK did this mission type make it past the QA phase? It should have been scrapped basically at the idea phase. Seeing it implemented just makes it painfully aware that the team sometimes has no idea at all how to balance this game.

>>149305824
t. salty rookie

>>149305824

I don't know what you're talking about, they're one of the easiest missions precisely because the ayys will waste turns taking shots at the device.

At least Beagle is giving a live example on how useful pistols are.

Hey so I upgraded the normal throwing axe to plasma from the alien rulers DLC, because I had already done the archon autopsy before killing the viper king, and now the mag axe is not showing on the trophy wall and there's no way for me to buy it, is there any kind of way to have it be shown other than reload a save, which is a bit old?

I know it's a minor thing but hey I like my pretty trophy wall

>>149264579
the start is hard
when you get magnetic its easy till tougher enemies show up
its difficult before you get plasma
its easy when you are full plasma

psionics are OP and should not be used

>>149305824
lad your game is either dated back 3 months when it was still a thing to have 3 pods camp the device
or you fucked up and just ranting

one one ayy shoots the device, once per turn
no matter how many pods are there

>>149306871
Eh, ignore this, decided to reload the save before the viper king autopsy and maybe I can finish the mission in a better way without the berserker queen pounding half my squad's ass

Am I the only one who's really turned off by the parts when you fight ADVENT, both in EW and in XCOM 2?
If I play XCOM I want to fucking shot ayy lmaos, not some random dudeos.

>>149310071
I'm sure your not the only one, but considering I play x-com mods where half the times your fighting "ADVENT" (ie human/human like) enemies I know that doesn't apply to me.
