The customization, can create some mad rosters and unique weapons. Weapons are dropped when a soldier is killed so you have to retrieve it along with it's unique modifications. The weapon is then passed on. It can even be named.
I'm also really looking forward to the gameplay changes. In Enemy Unknown, the combat was slow and methodical. You had to advance slowly until you "discovered" a pod, then you did everything you could to maintain a defensive line while you figured out your approach.
In XCOM 2, you're the aggressor and you can advance quickly while setting up ambushes. ADVENT also sends in dropships as reinforcements right on top of you. So basically you have to be way more aggressive rather than slow and cautious this time.
Where can I get this game cheap?

I wouldn't see why not. Grenadier replaces the rockets, so it will be a little different. Instead of wildly missing with an on-point direct rocket, you will no launch in an arch with grenades.
Friendly splash damage is in - that much is obvious. I doubt you can accidentally "shoot" your soldiers because of the mechanics of it, unless you directly target them for whatever reason.

The Faceless disguise themselves as civilians on terror missions and transform when you get too close to them. The only way to tell them apart from the real civvies are with battle scanners or by seeing if they run away when an alien gets close to them.

BPRD, defintiely
>>323447886
It looks and acts terrifying too.
On terror missions, there's now a minimum amount of civilians that you have to rescue, which means that you HAVE to approach them. Combined with the fact that you have only one way of telling fake civilians from real ones(and that's seeing if they run away from aliens or not), you will constantly be gambling whether a civilian is a squadwipe in disguise.
The best part? If you try to mob each civilian, and end your turn close to the faceless, he'll transform during his move and get a full turn, which is effectively a death sentence for one squad member.

Who is best character and why is it my nigga Central?
Really hyped for this which is a strange feeling seeing as almost everything that comes out lately is garbage.
It's almost like living in a dream where devs react in intelligent ways to fan feedback.
However it is a bit dissapointing to see certain things are somewhat derivative of the original. Terror missions are a big example of this, they are basically the exact same except with the addition of minimum civs saved. No fatigue so again you can run uber squads with no consequence.
Maybe it was too much to hope for a mission where X-Com goes and blows up alien civilians or something, but it's also dissapointing to see that the game seems to basically follow the same formula of missions. Even the way research is laid out seems similar, with "skulljacking" aka, probably capturing, being one of the first objectives.
Also your troops 'breaking the glass' on advent laser bars seems to be a persistent bug that will go on launch.

Well to a certain extent. If you get wounded it will take the character out for a long while. I watched a vid of Legend difficulty where a trooper went to 1hp and had a whopping 39 day recovery time.
>game seems to basically follow the same formula of missions
Now on this one I dont follow your logic. Yeah, terror missions are very similar, however otherwise missions seem like they've got the biggest upgrade. In XCOM2012 most of missions were "kill everything". This time almost every mission has an objective, sometimes a timer. You assassinate VIPs from Advent convoys, you destroy uplinks, disarm bombs, evacuate a VIP to a landing zone, etc.
I dont think they follow the formula at all.
>>323451419
In addition it's a really bizarre choice to have XCOM ballistic weapons doing nearly twice as much damage as advent weapons, which even on legendary seem to only do 3 damage on a hit.
XCOM magnetic weapons do over twice as much as the advent versions, this seems sort of a weird break in the worldbuilding vs. mechanics that didn't exist in EU/EW.
MECs are neat. They can't hide behind waist-high cover like normal soldiers can, though, they can only hide behind full-size shit that breaks line of sight entirely. Or one of their upgrades turns them into a mobile shieldwall for regular troops to hide behind
Half the gene mods were fairly useless and the other half were OP as fuck from what I remember. And you needed lots of Meld to make the mod squad.
Also gene modded soldiers look goofy--modding a soldier puts them into this bare-armed model. I guess they wanted to put in some new cosmetic options for genemodded, but did it in the laziest way.

You could get similar wound times in EU/EW but eventually projects cut down even the most grievous of wounds to a relatively short period.
I only gave terror missions as an example of being derivative because I think that they honestly didn't even need them. Terror missions didn't have to be in the game if they weren't going to mix it up like they did with all the other examples you've provided where they've done a great job keeping things more interesting.

What a crappy ad. Those are the stakes? If you don't join the resistance, you become an advanced alien lifeform? Sign me the fuck up.
You know what mod I want?
An EDF mod, where on the Mission Success screen, this plays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5qfWt1ACBw
you can put scars on your soldiers now right?
guess if my peeps get heavily wounded i'll make them scarred and what not

ayy lmao
>>323452223
Mm, I think Faceless are exactly the thing you need on terror missions to make them fresh again.
In XCOM2012 you could ignore civvies but now you have to save them. But in addition you also have to be careful about them being hideous monsters.
I think terror missions will be the least interesting, but even then they are better than before.
As for the squad thing, you're right. I wish there was some incentive to mix things up like characters getting debuffs if you bring them on multiple missions in a row, and those debuffs disappearing over time.
snake tits is the only reason i bought this game

>No fatigue so again you can run uber squads with no consequence.
That's balanced out with FAR longer bench time from wounds, and the aliens have a lot more tools to fuck you up with just in general. Not to say we don't ether, but I'm starting to feel it's more their ballgame then ours you know? That new unit, the Gatekeeper, is going to be hell if it's armor is like 2-3 with a sizable chunk of health due towards just how much damage it can do with that beam + the multi-zombie ordeal. Zombies in this game are not units you want to take lightly as one can easly whip you for like 8 health, and killing them is pointless as they'll just get back up till you defeat the source.
But yeah, it's pretty clear that XCOM 2 is just XCOM EU/EW with enhancements...and honestly I'm OK with that. The refinement overall is already leaning towards a far less bullshit ( how was I to know I couldn't see the fag from there? ) and far more dynamic ( squad wondering around the base, squard get's different little personalty quips and affects lached onto them under use ) experience as well. There's stuff I do wish they would fix ( the breaking glass when there is no glass, still able to 'see' past walls at times, pods spawning in area's they can't move out of ) but overall I enjoyed EU/EW, and I can already see myself loving this.
>>323452367
I kind of get the feeling they know their player base with this one, and are focusing more on just pandering to that niche who already know all about it instead of going for wider audiences.

off yourself snek lovers
before i kill you myself
Come on guys, the snek girls can rehabilitate. We can make them betraye the dirty Ethereal and join us in our holy crusade.
Can we at least try? Its all the Ethereal fault, snake waifus are victims, like us.
>>323448294
Holy shit this is such a good idea
>>323452679
None of you faggots wanted to recruit or fug em when they were thin men, why the change of heart over a simple addition of tits?
>>323452880
you are aware that sneks were thinmints before
>>323452880
I agree
It ain't me
>>323453084
Because they were not snek with boobs
https://a.pomf.cat/qtrafq.webm
>>323453096
They where just following orders, probably afraid of their lives. Its the Ethereal I tell you.
>>323453223
what in the fuck just happened
>>323451937
I feel like the Advent in general are more a Riot squad then anything else? Sure, electric batons is pretty harsh, but none of their weapons directly scream "We want to kill you on sight". I think they are set more for 'stun' then direct slaughter...even if in turn they aren't able to acually cuff and capture your units directly ( or if they are, no one's showed this factor off yet ). In earnest they aren't much better off then the police in modern age. They have guns, but they aren't magnums or high powered assault rifles ether.

Double Tap or In the Zone?
I'm starting a my first game of EW. Is the early game radically different or do I still spam satellites?
Please help
>squad composition
>best gene mods
>best mec builds
>>323452803
It makes a whole lot of sense really. I'm usually not a buyfag but I have for this because I like the way they've gone about things and because I liked the original a whole lot.
>>323453374
an .ini edit to deploy a shit load of soldiers. You can actually do the same thing with the new mechanics, but with only a regular squad instead of a massive firing squad.
>>323453384
They're the "military face". It's just like some random grunt is the "Military face" of modern military like USA, but in the back they have the cool shit that nobody sees.
>>323453534
In the zone is OP as fuck
>>323453534
In the zone.
Wound the aliens to set up chain kills.
>>323453534
in the zone because when you get a jetpack you're literally death incarnate
>>323453534
Double Tap, it's helpful when you actually need it.
>>323453560
Satellites are still priority. But in missions you can't fucking slow crawl your way forward. You're on a time limit. Gotta find that sweet sweet goo so you can build robots and shit.
Don't build both of the new buildings, pick one or the other. If you're investing goop into building mec troopers you won't have enough to make the gene mod lab worthwhile and vice versa.
Personally I prefer Mec.
>>323453560
I need help too. Are research times differnet as well? I had a strategy in EU, but research times have seemed different.
>>323453790
What are the pros and cons of Psi soldiers and MEC soldiers in EW?
>>323453790
>If you're investing goop into building mec troopers you won't have enough to make the gene mod lab worthwhile and vice versa.
This is seriously good advice, thanks anon.
Is this game mainly single player or are the multiplayer aspects better?
>>323454075
Single player
>>323454075
SP is the reason to play the game. MP is just something on the side
