Hey guys, not X-Com but I figured people here would know.

After about 8 years I've started playing Jagged Alliance 1.13 again and it is kicking my ass. I don't remember it being this difficult. I keep trying different combinations of mercs and getting my ass kicked about halfway through Drassen. On my last attempt I disabled New CTH and was doing a little bit better, and tried going in to the middle tile of Drassen at night with militia backup, but the soldiers threw a flare at me and then mortared me, killing Ira and my Imp instantly. I'm only playing on Experienced difficulty level. Has the difficulty in 1.13 been ramped up since 8 years ago or something? I don't see how you're supposed to be able to deal with so many soldiers unless you rent a squad of top mercs for 1 day.

If we bring real-world biology into this they'd probably be biologically female if anything at all, as that is the "default" state of humans. But since this is XCOM, all bets are off.

I personally like to think they're the opposite of hermaphrodites, i.e., without sexual characteristics at all.

Out of curiosity, anyone got a key from cdkeys yet? Thinking about pulling the trigger on it and saving a couple bucks there since as far as I know I can't get it cheaper than $37 elsewhere at the moment. I've got $35 in credit at Amazon but unfortunately I live in Illinois so I would get taxed buying it from Amazon which is another point in cdkeys' favor. Already bought a bunch of shit from them before, just curious if the keys are out already or not.
>>

Smart.
Just did that.

I probably won't even play immediately regardless.
There are a couple mods that I will absolutely have to have updated before I play.

Things like this will happen way less with Target Preview. I know that Gotcha again was also really good about this. Never doubt what it tells you. It's also kind of hacky in a way, since it can tell you LOS from enemies as well. Means you can avoid triggering overwatch.
>>
>>187473337
you could avoid triggering overwatch even on vanilla with the regular LoS indicator
just make sure the path your soldier takes dont trigger the indicator at any point and you are set
even easier with waypoints since you can dictate the path tile by tile
to me gotcha just simplifies the whole process

A boy and his Jake
>>
One Jake over the cuckoo's nest
>>
Jake and his mother lived alone in a small house on a hill. Jake kept to himself, drawing pictures and playing with his toys as his mom watched Christian broadcasts on the television.
Life was simple, and they were both happy.
That was, until the day Jake's mom heard a voice from above: "Your son has become corrupted by sin! He needs to be saved!"

"I will do my best to save him, my Lord," Jake's mother replied, rushing into Jake's room, removing all that was evil from his life.

Again, the voice called to her:
"Jake's soul is still corrupt! He needs to be cut off from all that is evil in this world and confess his sins."

"I will follow your instructions, Lord. I have faith in thee," Jake's mother replied, as she locked Jake away in his room, away from the evils of the world.

One last time, Jake's mom heard the voice of God calling to her:
"You have done as I asked, but I still question your devotion to me. To prove your faith, I will ask one more thing of you."

"Yes, Lord. Anything," Jake's mother begged.

"To prove your love and devotion, I require a sacrifice. Your son Jake will be this sacrifice. Go into his room and end his life as an offering to me, to prove that you love me above all else!"

"Yes, Lord," she replied, grabbing a butcher's knife from the kitchen.
Jake, watching through a crack in the door, trembled in fear. Scrambling around his room to find a hiding place, he noticed a trapdoor to the basement, hidden under his rug. Without hesitation, he flung open the hatch just as his mother burst through his door and threw himself down into the unknown depths below.

I saw Jake Solomon at a grocery store in Baltimore yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Jake Solomon? What fitting last name for the architect of the biblical failure that bore of the chosen is going to be when it releases in a day. Of course they say that this "expansion pack" is going to have so many features it will be a stepping stone for XCOM 3, but in reality it is a thinly veiled mask at what will surely be a light patch at most, and will likely further break this garbage more than it already is. I guess you could realistically say Chore Of The Chosen will be a mini XCOM 3, as the third game of this mediocre series will be just as disappointingly bland as this shitspansion will turn out to be.

In October 2001, Jake met with the families of 9/11 victims. After a brief interview in which he expressed his condolences and hope for closure, he reportedly burst out laughing and made airplane noises and mimicked two planes crashing. He then picked up the child of a deceased victim and whispered into her ear "Your dad's dead, bitch", and proceeded to put on a pair of sunglasses and unleash a barrage of martial arts attack on the small child. She was rushed to the hospital where she was pronounced dead due to extreme trauma. When asked later about the incident, Jake became visibly sexually aroused and repeated the same attack on the reporter.

I can't believe any of you are actually excited for Joke Solomon's Bore of the Snorezen. I'm sure you think the factions, ripped directly from Destiny, are interesting or the boring, edgy, humanoid Chosen are compelling villains, but you're wrong. I've never seen something more derivative than this """expansion""" pack you're willing to gobble up. You're hyped for paying $40 for performance improvements which the base game won't get at all and even worse, you're going to buy it off of black market key resellers, guess you hate Joke Solomon as much as I do, huh cupcake?

In 2017 during the development for "XCOM 2: War of the Chosen" Jack Solomon (whose was the lead designer') was blasting ayys with co-wokers when a small child was being abducted and began to struggle to resist the probing. As his co-workers rushed to help, Solomon held out an arm infront of them, stopping them and was reported saying by Garth DeAngelis "The aliens have claimed her, let her fight for her own life". The crew, dumbfounded, proceeded to watch her struggle until her body disappeared into the UFO, lifeless. He was later spotted outside the child's house, making probing gestures and thanking the family for their child's sacrifice to the great ayylmao.

That's funny.

What's funnier than this is that he's a fucking millionaire, fucking 10/10's left and right, and designing epic fucking games while you ugly losers post on an imageboard all day and haven't even kissed a girl. I know why you hate him so much. It's because you're all jealous. You all want to be game designers, but it won't ever happen in your pathetic lives because you don't have what it takes. Jake does, and that's why Jake gets paid the big bucks. Jake doesn't give a fuck about any of you or about this fucking "Bore of the Chosen" bullshit (as he just showed) Keep jacking off to pictures of sneks while they're the ones jacking Jake off.

FRICK!

>>187484429
We literally had this discussion in the last thread, just buy the reinforcement pack, turn off the Anarchy children cosmetics if you don't like them, try fighting the Alien rulers when you hit t2 and if you don't like it ignore the mission in later campagins.

Right now the reinforcement pack has the exact same cost as Shen's last gift, there is no reason to not grab the other two for free via the reinforcement pack.

That's literally the best deal you're going to get for them on steam. Shen's last gift costs 9.99, Alien hunters cost 9.99 and Anachy children is 4.95. Why not grab all 3 via the reinforcement pack for the price of 9.99? It's literally 3 for the price of one

Apart from the occasional odd streamer here and there, for Xcom I usually go with Lollash and Llamachomp, pretty chill streams.

>>
>>187499405
More aim and HP per level, an additional built-in pip of armour, and you can apply mods to their weapons. They still won't have as many or as interesting skills as a regular soldier will, but they'll be brick-tough and actually able to hit things.
>>
>>187500496
Applying mod to their weapons should be enough of a buff.
More aim, HP and armor give them too much of an advantage.
>>
>>187500496
And with new exhaustion system, ability to send in damaged Sparks now means something.
>>
>>187500671
How long is the exhaustion period?
>>
>>187500563
>More aim, HP and armor give them too much of an advantage.

A high-level Spark was easier to kill than a high-level soldier. They had nowhere near enough HP to compensate for being unable to take cover. They absolutely needed the health and armour buffs, and just being able to mod their weapons doesn't automatically fix their crappy aim anyway. Weapon mods are a layer of customisation you apply to a unit that's already useful, not a band-aid to made a shitty unit usable.
>>
they should've gave sparks classes like EW
>>
>>187500904
the little perk they got in EW was based on the class of the soldier getting chopped
>>
>>187501046
Then maybe they should give different perks based on the AI piloting the SPARK.

Julian for crowd control and explosions.
Warrior for robot gunfu.
Guardian for defense and being a robot paladin.
>>
>>187500671
Sparks can get exhausted? How does that work?
>>
>>187501463
Your comprehension is amazing.
>>
>>187501463
The point he's making is that they don't get exhausted and you can send damaged sparks into combat with virtually no consequences other than them being more likely to die.
>>
>there's still a chance you could die before wotc releases or finishes downloading
>>
>>187501746
Just release it now Jake.
>>
So nobody knows roughly how long the exhaustion period for soldiers are?
>>
>>187500827
No solid info here, only stuff i've seen on vids. With average will it takes two missions in a row to make soldier tired. Something like 8-14 days of recovery, infirmary doesn't seem to affect it. If you push it too far, soldier can get shaken - wounded for 14 days (i saw this when infirmary was already built, so recovery might be even bigger without it).
>>187501463
Sparks can't, people can. If shit hits the fan, you'll still have your faithful fisting bot.
>>187501680
They have some nice heals though, i used to send one fucked up bot on a mission, heal it once and it's good to go.

I've been playing UFO on Superhuman. Everything was going really well until my first terror mission. Turns out Heavy Cannon HE rounds, which are death incarnate for squishy aliens and vaporise wooden walls, are basically a warm breeze to Cyberdiscs and industrial buildings. I had more luck with the few laser pistols I had on my rocketeers than my entire squad opening up with the HCs. So that quickly lead to a complete wipe as everyone but my scouts and rocketeers got assraped by a disc ambush, and it turns out laser pistols are so inaccurate my 80 accuracy marksman couldn't hit a sectoid 15 tiles away, and scouts are useless without fire support.

Maybe I should have used those laser rifles instead of selling them all. It also would have probably helped if I hadn't accidentally sent my skyranger out with a UFO breach team armed only with stunrods, though there were helpful when one guy got mind controlled.

Now the question is, what do I do now? Even if I savescum, I don't have time to get any new weapons or even AP ammo. I do have a few HE packs, so maybe I can pull something off, and now that I know the cannons are useless against disks I don't have to waste all my time trying to kill those things.
>>
>>187503698
Always rush weapon research fag.
>>
>>187503698
HE bricks are the simplest (read anyone can carry one of these) way to kills cyberdiscs. Large rockets with the rocket launcher can also put them down. As long as you have plenty of both, you can break them into scrap plenty efficiently.
>>
>>187503837
I did, it's just the HCs were so effective i've just been building laser rifles to sell them. I've probably build hundreds of them by now, but I don't actually have any on hand.

>>187503998
The other problem is that I came in right next to a building with the cyberdiscs right around the corner, most of my rockets were just vaporising the building so I could get a clean shot before four of them came around the corner. I also left all the HE behind because they were wasted space so far. Lessons for the future.

>>187504481
I've been using rockets for that. One large rocket takes out the entire building from across the map. My general battle plan has been 100% rocketeers and Heavy Cannon HE rounds. Everything outside the UFO gets fucking vaporised from a mile away while everyone hides in smoke, and then four guys rush the UFO with stunrods and laser pistols. I thought I finally got the hang of things, but it seems I forgot about terror missions. Turns out Mind Control + Cyberdiscs + an entire squad armed with nothing but explosives is a BAD IDEA!

As a long-time watcher of Odd, I can say that he actually is pretty good at the game... when he's taking it seriously and not panicking. Some of it's due to absolutely bullshit levels of luck, but there's been times when his back's to the wall in a situation that for all intents and purposes ought to be impossible, and managed to somehow get out of it.
Part of the issue, I think, with his playthrough of the expansion is that he's gotten complacent, especially with how Reapers are practically custom-made for the way he likes to play. That combined with a tendency to start panicking if things go really wrong, like when the Hunter showed up right after his Templar went down, and a tendency to tunnel-vision, like how he'd only take the Templar out if he happened to scroll far enough down to go "Oh shit, yeah, I've got a Templar!" is making him look really dumb right now.

He's a mixed bag, honestly. He learns and improves, and actually talks through and explains his planning and line of thought as he goes, and when the difficulty is consistently hard he can really shine (like back in XCOM EW, when there wasn't squad-stealth to abuse and soldiers taking damage was a given on any mission.). The issue comes when he becomes used to stomping everything thrown at him and gets lazy. Which is honestly why I watch him; when things blow up in his face, it's glorious, but he's decent enough that it's not a constant cringefest, even if it's annoying to see him forget about a soldier or skill that could deal with a situation perfectly until it's too late.

As one anon already stated, it's more a problem of lots of gangs in lots of highly-populated cities, plus drug trafficking from Mexico.
Another thing to keep in mind with these statistics is that more often than not, those figures for "Assault by firearm" include instances of self-defense. At least this one keeps unintentional firearms discharge separate; most of these that I see just lump it all into "gun-related deaths" and then get used to point out how horrible guns are and how we need to make more restrictions for law-abiding citizens instead of enforcing laws that already exist.

The problem I've always seen with the "arming the good guys" argument is that a law-abiding citizen can cease to be law-abiding at any time, and then he just becomes a criminal with a legally owned gun. It's impossible to root out all the psychos and wannabe gangsters, and even sane people can commit crimes of passion. I'd rather we minimized the number of killing tools available to the general public.

That's nice but disarming the public doesn't stop the killings. And disarming America is impossible and would simply lead to law abiding citizens being disarmed.
Reducing violence by targetting root issues should be the focus, not targetting the tools that are already present and impossibly numerous.
>The problem I've always seen with the "arming the good guys" argument is that a law-abiding citizen can cease to be law-abiding at any time
Statistically this isn't much of an argument. The amount of "Law-abiding citizens with no criminal track record" to "murdering people" is very small and not worth addressing imo.

>>187520752

that's the thing, there really aren't that many. They're extremely infrequent and usually don't kill that many people. In fact, the reason everyone goes nuts about them is that gun violence is INCREDIBLY RARE for most people in the US. The fact of the matter is, if you're not black and in the inner city, you're not going to get shot. The "mass shootings" are just the only thing that affects "normal" people.

I mean seriously, we live in two verey different countries, one of them is basically the Vietnam war every day, where casualties are so high no one even bothers reporting on all the deaths anymore, and the other might as well be rural England, where there's a front page news story and a mass public outcry about the mailman stubbing his toe.

>>187520570
People don't just stop being law-abiding for no reason; there's always a motive, and the most common motives for it (cheating spouse, angry grudge, ect.) aren't going to be curbed by not having a gun.
Guns act as an equalizer- little old eighty-year-old granny can't take on a big muscly twenty-year-old mugger without some form of weaponry. More than that, they have the reputation and thus the force of presence to end confrontations before they turn violent- many a home invader has given up quietly when they heard the homeowner shucking his shotgun, and angry confrontations on the street have a tendency to quiet down and break up if somebody draws a piece.

More importantly, as >>187521105 says, disarming America is frankly impossible- our entire history was forged and relied on citizens who owned guns taking care of themselves, and that culture is deeply ingrained in who we are. And even if, by some miracle, you went around and rounded up every single legally-owned firearm in the nation, there's still the problem of the shared border with Mexico, and all the access to guns from handguns to M2s that entails. In other words, the gangs would still have a steady stream of weaponry and the problem wouldn't be anywhere close to solved, but law-abiding citizens would not have that access, and there would be a lot of resentment towards the government that would drive even more people to crime...

You can even look at history, see what happened when they tried to ban alcohol. All that happened was that the very thing that they were trying to stamp out just got even bigger and stronger, because the government had effectively killed off all of their competition and was still no more effective at stopping them than they were before.

Mass shootings are statistically very small (though thanks to the media that statistic is growing), they're just visible.
It's worth noting, however, that most of these big-name mass shootings occurred within "Gun-free zones" where guns weren't allowed.
Remember that big school shooting in Newtown or wherever a few years ago? Remember the news talking about the other two school shootings that happened that week? No, you don't, because those other two school shootings got stopped- one by a teacher who went out to his truck and got his personal firearm, another by an off-duty cop who also was using a personally-owned firearm.
Odd how none of the big-name news outlets talk about those stories where disaster got diverted, isn't it? It's almost like they're just stirring up controversy in order to bolster their views and ratings.

I hope it doesn't mean the balance changes are only added if you disable the story missions. I like the changes to the ruler actions but I still want my free SPARK.

>>187524051

Everything remains, it's just the missions themselves that never happen. Frankly, it's a little disappointing that they had to Frankenstein the DLCs so they would work along with their own official expansion.
>>
>>187523883
But how? Aren't shaders a graphical parts of the engine? How can they change something in pure mechanical mods, or some simple ini changes?
>>
>>187524051
The way I understand it everything is just added normally, you just don't do the missions. There will probably be projects to "research" SPARKs and stuff, and the rulers will appear dynamically. The only thing Integrated DLC does is remove the missions that open up Alien Hunters and SLG content and instead just add the content directly.

You have to research weapons from the rulers dlc, then you have to build each one separately in proving ground.

The dlc are definitely optional. So unless there is a deal with them, picking up the base game + WotC makes sense. You can always pick up the dlc later.

Buy ShenLG or the AlienDLC if you want more content, otherwise just get get the base game and the expansion. I think there is a cheap bundle pack on steam.
>>
>>187533329
The price different between digital deluxe and base game is only 6 dollars right now. If you like the idea of 3 more alien boss monsters on top of the Chosen and Robot Drone soldiers, it's not a bad value. Just be aware that the Rulers have their crazy Ruler Reaction mechanic that rub a lot of people the wrong way (getting nerfed a little in WOTC) and SPARKs are only alright and are not nearly as strong as MECs in XCOM:EW (getting buffed in WOTC). If neither of those things super stand out then you can just wait and pick up the season pass when its on sale again at some later date. Anarchy's Children kind of sucks.
>>
>>187533542

I'm still hesitation if it's worth it considering this is a $40 expansion which is absurd. It's either this or Divinity Orginal Sin 2.

Hi guys,
We are unable to give an exact time, but keys will be sent out closer to the release date of the game, most likely a few hours before the release date/time (In accordance with Steams Release times).
We aim to have keys released either a few days before launch (Depending if the Publisher sends them early and gives the greenlight to do so) or on release day.

It's logic was fine. They were rail guns that used mass effect fields.

The heat sink is actually fucking brilliant and allows them to get around the overheating problem.

What is pants on head retarded though is once you are out of heatsinks you can't fire anymore. As if the heatsinks were the fucking bullets.

It would have been fine and in fact great if after you ran out of heat sinks then you had an overheat gauge. But they didn't because the entire point of heatsinks was to get rid of anything interesting about the universe for shooty shooty bang bang.

Well I am Jake, none can excel
I'll open the door to Heaven or Hell
Whoa, Jake someone would pray
Could you wait to call me another day
The children prayed, the preacher preached
Time and mercy is out of your reach
I'll fix your feet til you can't walk
I'll lock your jaw til you can't talk
I'll close your eyes so you can't see
This very hour, come and go with me
I'm Jake I come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold
To draw up the flesh off of the frame
Dirt and worm both have a claim

O, Jake
O, Jake
Won't you spare me over 'til another year
My mother came to my bed
Placed a cold towel upon my head
My head is warm my feet are cold
Jake is a-movin' upon my soul
Oh, Jake how you're treatin' me
You've close my eyes so I can't see
Well you're hurtin' my body
You make me cold
You run my life right outta my soul

Oh Jake please consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you will move your icy hand
The old, the young, the rich or poor
All alike to me you know
No wealth, no land, no silver no gold
Nothing satisfies me but your soul

O, Jake
O, Jake
Won't you spare me over til another year
Won't you spare me over til another year
Won't you spare me over til another year

Imagine being Jake during development, having to be all like "damn, Viper , you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my in-game character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another chosen assassin in his room. Like seriously imagine having to be Jake and not only sit in that chair while that viper flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there,, hour after hour, while she perfected that tongue pull. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, VIPERS LOOK LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of purple skins for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with genetic modifiers in the previous months. And then the publisher calls for another feature, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Jake. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

sounds like a plan

Which of the new faction-classes are you looking forward to the most? Do you expect any (good) custom factions in the future? LW2 WOTC when?
>>
>>187546520
skirmisher is probably going to be my favorite, and I doubt we'll get custom factions

and I hope LWotC is a thing

I said that Reapers would be the most useful in the earlygame since they were first shown, and certainly that holds up from what I've heard, so I'm looking forward to having them during the toughest parts of the game. They also look pretty tight.

It's really weird to em that I come here to discuss war of the chosen, and the entire thread, every thread, is just dudes talking about naked super buff operatives and sexy snakes.

I'm sure you started this as a joke, but it's taken a dark turn, folks.

And for some reason battlefield 1 webms instead of actual xcom webms.
