ODST is not xcom related
Good op finally.
>>137160476
dank OP, fampai
pistols are useful take 2
>>137160586
Will take that into account.
Waiting for the POI pastebin now.
>>137160689
>>137160738
Shitty OP, actually :^)
Post soldier's you'd salute or webms
Bonus for both
Petitioning for concealed lewd pastebin that is not advertised. Any lewd related links and pics would go in said pastebin, so people who are already in the know can find it, but its not obnoxiously advertised and doesn't start fights in the thread.
xcg is not an anime thread, let's be civil but OP's that are anime related detract from xcg's theme. ODST fits that theme since it's theme is also ayy invasions. This is not an anime general but post anime shit all you like the OP should never be themed waifu or anime.
>>137161004
FUCK YOU
ODST has its own thread. Halo has its own thread. Its like saying Warhammer 40k is Xcom. Its not.
And there's nothing wrong with having anime-influenced art and mods on xcg. If you do you have severe autism and shouldn't even be posting.
>>137161004
I can't agree with you. XCOM is pretty anime.
>>137161001
At the very least, I don't even see why porn links need to be in an xcg thread when other threads are there for that very reason.
OR you know just bookmark it.
>>137160878
>>137160476
http://pastebin.com/rnAYCym8
>>137161001
Seconding this.
People are going to want their lewd mods, whether we like it or not. Just put it somewhere so that they know where they can find it.
>tfw got squad size 1 before first retaliation mission
Gotta feed all your kills to your specialist since they get the most XP from assists.
Also haven't taken any injuries yet. This might be the run.
>>137161304
WHAT other threads Name them. List them.
Besides, this is /xcg/. We should be free to talk about what we like and want in our Xcom
>>137161179
Fuck off anime has nothing to do with XCOM. ODST and Halo fit the alien invasion theme, some japanese cartoon shit does not.
xcg is not a waifu anime thread you fucks.
This drama is a perfect example of why you don't make threads early, if made properly people will overlook a vaguely anime xcom OP image or a lewd pastebin, but when you make them early you draw attention and people scour it for signs of a shitpost and then they find them and we end up with 400 posts of drama
28 POI's from today

>>137161575
So what if it fits the theme? They have their own boards, go there.
more robo enemies
>>137161575
>>137161304
We used to have a nondescript link to lewd anyway and it wasn't an issue. Some people want it, some don't, so a compromise is order.
Really though, we need a new XCOM2 pastebin as well. The current mandatory /xcg/ pastebin is very outdated.
>>137161786
Thanks man
>>137161179
pic related looks very XCOM to me tho I'm must admit that I have nothing against Anime-COM.
>>137161365
Understood. Tracking.
>>137161001
>>137161367
This may not be a bad idea.
>>137161795
Agreed. Halo and Warhammer has their own threads. So fuck em.
>OP no longer has furshit and ebin /v/ memes
>people still complain about it.
You faggots are beyond saving.
>>137161786
Eh heh heh heh... what are ya buyin, stranger?
>>137161575
>being this much of a hypocrite
>>137161939
I support the creation of a new pastebin that include links to lewd mods. They are in development, and people will want their thongs anyway
>>137162121
We aren't complaining, current OP is good.
Were just discussing potential changes and improvements for new OPs.
is it ok if I lose 2 of my starters on the 2nd mission of Legendary Ironman?
I really don't wanna do gatecrasher again
>>137161939
Exactly stop advertising xcg as anime, waifu or lewd central, discrete link in OP is fine.
can we not start this again? I just want one thread where we don't argue about trivial shit
>>137162121
ODST is not related to xcom anymore than anime is. Just because it invovles killing ayys doesn't make them similar - ODST has like, futuristic technology from the far future, while Xcom is scrap technology that slowly adapts alien technology. VERY different.
>>137162317
If your specialist and grenadier made it you have a chance.
>>137161256
Hmm, yes, anime IS blood...
>>137162258
>>137162121
No, current OP is terrible
But it is true, we ARE discussing necessary changes and improvements for future OPs.
>>137162236
It's literally footage from the game compared to some trash anime waifu shit that has it's own general.
OP's shouldn't be degenerate focused, with lewds, anime or waifu shit, it just causes fighting. Discrete links that dont advertise xcg as that are fine. Posts are fine. But the OP shouldnt be about advertising xcg as something to attract pony,anime,degenerates.
>>137162242
This is fine.
>>137162407
What you're asking for is literally impossible. Purists get flustered way too quickly for any thread to be completely chill.
I'd love it as well, just a thread where we could all have a good time discussing what we want without someone whinging, 'BUT THAT'S X', or 'THAT'S NOT Y', but I just don't see it happening.

>>137162758
>>OP's shouldn't be degenerate focused, with lewds, anime or waifu shit, it just causes fighting
Fighting is going to happen, no matter what. The fatc that we're arguing now is proof that, no matter the OP, there will be fighting I do agree, though
>>137161776
that threads should not be made early.
>>137162451
Bull fucking shit. Anime is some cartoon with no general theme with a whole section /a/ dedicated to it. ODST is literally the same theme as XCOM. SO fuck off with anime OP's they will be reported and raged at until eternity.
>>137162963
Fuck off.
NO anime waifu themed shit in ops and discrete lewd links will clean this mess up. Plain and simple.
Both sides of this "argument" are retarded
>>137162758
Clearly you're wrong.
There's nothing with a good cheesecake OP if it introduces more people to xcom.
And personally, I'm all for the fanbase to expand. If they have problems, its just teething. Maturity solves this.
>>137162242
Go with this and everyone stop complaining about everything. Live in harmony and stop disliking what people like.
t. Commander
>>137163181
Fuck off.
>>NO Airgame themed shit in ops and discrete lewd links will clean this mess up. Plain and simple.
FTFY
Airgame did nothing wrong.
>>137163210
That op was fine because it is literally footage from the game. But when you theme it like some weebshit it is just sad.
>>137163181
>>137163009
>>137161575
>>137161004
>>137163550
Anime mods have already happened. Whether you like it or not
Dealwithit.jpg
>>137163197
Neither seem to understand moderation, if you try and completely ban everything that isn't 100% gameplay discussion you're going to cause drama, if you make early threads filled with controversial shit you're going to cause drama
>>137163420
Airgame is 100% related to XCOM and there is no airgame general. Sorry to burst your bubble weebshit.
>>137163698
I agree.
From now on, threads cannot be made early.
Also, I suspect only two people make the OP - airgame anon, and some anon who disagrees with airgame anon.
I think both of them should come to an agreement, and take turns with making the OP. And also come to a consensus on what should be the standard OP for each upcoming thread.
I have been in these threads since 2013 and have contributed to literally everything imaginable from story timing to popular images to OC creation to shitposting
The people bringing up these complaints are by far the most out of touch, non-/xcg/ thing to happen, willing to devolve conversation into middle eastern politics for a quarter of a thread just to make a point that 'waifus are bad'
Run these cretins out, if you can't handle people talking about what they want to talk about you do not belong on 4chan
Go to Reddit where you can down vote off topic posts and stroke your dick, but that is not, has not, and will never be the way things are done here
>>137163989
Actually the solution is to completely give up on /xcg/ and move to an argon rich environment where we will be safe from metadrama
>>137163816
Its related to X-com. And EU/EW.
I think only 4 to 5 people talk about airgame now since its not in Xcom 2. And because airgame anon keeps forcing discussion or noticing it that its becoming really autistic.
>>137163420
>>NO Airgame themed shit in ops
B-But Interceptors are Fun!
>>137162894
Careful dude. You are dangerously close to an EXALT-themed OP.
>>137163550
>>because it is literally footage from the game.
I knew lewd would eventually happen but I still can't believe it.
>>137164078
>willing to devolve conversation into middle eastern politics
But if they hadn't done that I probably wouldn't have had the idea to make this stupid gif.I agree with you though.
>>137164078
Fucking this.
Post XCOM missions that went better than expected.
>>137164282
Hurm.
Airgame anon, can I have a go at making the EXALT theme OP?
I just need someone to psot what the next OP should be like. But I have an EXALT themed image ready when the time comes.
>>137164335
>>137164078
Its because they're /pol/tards who are obsessed with degeneracy while not realising they're on an imageboard dedicated to taiwanese wood carvings about teenage and younger girls. They always start shit.
>>137163680
You could make this the next OP and I wouldn't give a shit because it is fuckin funny and ingame footage. You don't understand at all.
>>137163550
>>mgs v gif
Thats weebshit y'know
![[AngryStatic].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/twNHknY.jpg "[AngryStatic].jpg")
>>137164585
>>can I have a go at making the EXALT theme OP?
Anyone can have a go at making OPs really. But if you make an EXALT thread expect a lot of[AngryStatic].
>>137164768
Yeah but you don't see me makin an OP out of it do you? Because I'm not a fuckin retard who wants to see xcg deleted from system 32.
>>137164585
All making an OP involves is copypasting the old one, removing embeds, updating when nessecary and uploading a picture, its really not hard
>>137164686
This was the mechtoid from Enemy Within though.
Or at the very least, a human female MEC, but with Mechtoid armanent.
>>137165000
Its not a matter of hard.
Its a matter of
>>can we agree that this OP text is okay
>>can we agree to make an OP without two idiots making one before the other in a dick waving contest.
Just saying. Airgame anon must have triggered someone, which is why the thread wars began.
>>137165031
>MEC
>With gene mods
But that's CHEATING, Anon!
>>137164921
People were trying to push for MGS V OP from the last thread >>137129127
Just saying.
>>137165187
Fuckheads even had a problem with bureau anon posting his playthrough so we didnt have to play that shit ourselves and suffer through it.
People complain about the darndest things.
>>137165031
Looks like a manga to me. Are we /a/ now?
>>137165187
It didn't help that he was making them early as well
>>137164585
>>137165000
You can also try and change the videos as well.
>>137165031
>>Or at the very least, a human female MEC, but with Mechtoid armanent.
And gene mods added in for good measure. It would make for an interesting option If that was in EW: Limited to a Mechtoid body but with MEC-Trooper gene mods.
>>137165462
Does this look like /a/ to you? Its just fanart based off the MEC and mechtoid.
Honestly you guys are beyond saving.
>>137165462
You know a manga isn't a catch all term for japanese art right? A mango is a comic book that you read backwards because the japanese are crazy
>>137165387
Exactly let's just keep it XCOM related, it's not hard.
>>137165801
This >>137165031 was pretty Xcom related though, fampai.
But I agree: we need a separate pastebin so that links to lewd mods can be posted without people complaining.
>>137165621
>>137166020
>>137165645
Cool facts you are free to discuss at >>/a/ or >>/c/ or >>/d/ or >>/e/
>>137166276
Actually I do most of my animu and mango discussion in /u/ because love between 2 girls is the most perfect and pure love possible, also /c/ is an image dump board and /e/ is dead
>>137166276
Thats beside the point.
The point is that xcom art doesn't have to be banned from /xcg/. Just because its not ingame doesn't mean people post art based off xcom
Why force all of this stupid shit into the OP at all
Why give a shit about unfunny stupid shit in the OP
Why is there always a race to make the OP either include or not include the stupid shit
Why is this general so chaotic and overdramatic, is this not just a general on an anime imageboard website about a game about kiling aliens
>>137166451
Exactly but you don't need to turn xcg into YET another anime thread by posting it in the OP.
Ok /xcg/, I buckled down. As it turns out our current mandatory /xcg/ reading pastebin already has a lewd pastebin at the very bottom. Go see for yourself.
In hopes of starting to actually improve the OP I modified and created a new mandatory pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/k9pT8zx4
>http://pastebin.com/k9pT8zx4
http://pastebin.com/k9pT8zx4
Please read and make suggestions, even small things like spelling mistakes. Please only minor grammer policing.
I also re-made the lewd pastebin:

>http://pastebin.com/GQPP2VGr
http://pastebin.com/GQPP2VGr
People can make suggestions for adding content, or removing stuff if the links are broken or something and I didn't notice.
This is a real effort to make some necessary updates, constructive criticism please!

Wizard of Oz is now officially XCOM related.
Add it to Mirabell Bell, the element 'Argon' and the tactical viability of flying tanks as part of official /xcg/ related topics
I will as always make a character or two when I get home in game to christen it

Maybe with your common sense we can stop derailing.

But this is fine, right?

i want arabs and middle eastern tribals to remove themselves or at least contribute discussion outside of bitching.
>>137166797
Rumor has it the next DLC is Magi of OZ and all wizard of OZ themed customization.
>>137166749
Does that include the ADVENT off duty shenanigans somewhere? Also I still think we should make a pastebin dedicated to XCOM operative soldiers as well like the Fatima background or stuff about Adams or others
>>137166749

Make sure this is in the pastebin
>>137151738
Alright I did that. Lady in the second story window, a rookie, actually got her ADVENT Trooper kill but the rooftop sniper felt it more important to save the pectoid from a dandelion than, ya know, murder its naked ass.
The events that followed involved a flash bang and a turn later, smoke. Everyone came out of the mission with the proper number of orifices.
Ya know I only cared so much because I was screenshotting the hell out of this run to share here. Then that crash happened and I... got annoyed.
Again, thanks for the input.

Reminder that spacegame killed original xcom
>>137168028
It's a that has never happened episode
It's a not understanding at all the reason why threads like tesg become so cancerous episode
It's a people posting lewds and waifus have consistently kept things in line minus a single occasion with what was almost certainly a false flagger and in fact the most derailing people in these generals are the people who are willing to argue for two threads now, possibly going on three, stagnating all discussion because they can't seem to take a hint that the general is going to do what it is going todo regardless of their complaining and in fact they are actively ruining things all by themselves in a case of true irony by not being willing to lighten up and cry doom at every single instance of things not going the way they want them to episode
It's a this discussion is done, I understand and sympathize with your concern but I disagree wholeheartedly with your methods and believe you have missed the point in many areas episode
>xcg
>discussing video games and not just bitching
you guys discuss shit less every thread and its not even just lewd posters alone

The context of the image is an XCOM member got captured, tortured, and interred inside a retrofitted Mechtoid MEC. She was also given gene mods to keep her in check (hence the drool) and to make sure she can be recovered and used again. The aliens basically turned her into a chaos dreadnought. Also, a black haired version

it'd make more sense if you were flipping out over the one with vahlen's notes and the disemboweled sneks in the background

Guys, stop posting memes and robots, memes and robots aren't related to XCOM
Let's talk about the specific metric dimensions of in game tiles instead
>>137174719
Nah, I'm just gonna go actually play the game.
Plasma or bust today!
>>137174719
I'm sorry I'll stop.
>>137174719Instead of being an asshole about it you could just start up another discussion. Starting your post off by blatantly telling others what not to talk about is only going to result in more shitposting.
Not quite sure what you mean by specific metric dimensions of in-game tiles, please clarify.
>>137174719
so what is the surface of one tile ? 1m2 ?
>>137175463
0.75m2
>>137175380
He's taking the piss
>>137175612
is this actually sort of calculated or are you just shitposting ?
I never knew i actually wanted to know the size of a tile
>>137174719
Someone should edit the george bush mission accomplished thing with Bradford and a long war "1 saved" terror mission outcome
>>137175860
>Bradforest
Shit, Tom Hanks kind of does look like Bradford in that shot. Throw in a scar and a nice green wool sweater and we'd be set for a live action movie.
>>137175783
Not 100% percent sure but as far as I know yes.

Why is it when I tell a joke I get fish on the line but when I legitimately bait I get squat

Snipers with longwatch, a couple of fully trained psykers, and superior repeaters for everyone is the way to go, right?
>>137176452
Must be the kind of tackle and bait you're using. In-game fishing has told me that weather conditions and time of day factor into such fishing too. Maybe you're pulling too hard on the line?
XCOM fishing mod when?
Here guys, I just put together an imgur album of 500+ XCOM pics, including /xcg/ stuff.
Take a look if you want too, or see if your missing any pics you want. I plan on putting this in the pastebin:

You have more than a few repeats in there, but I'm enjoying browsing through it all the same.
>>137177153
thanks man
>>137177172
Yeah, I just noticed, I'm started to work on cutting them out, but imgur display isn't making it easy.
I really wish the long war levels descriptions were more accurate, the amount of ones where its been described as short sightlines and cqc and every pod has a line of site on the skyranger is far too high
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWH6ypQbqok
For the first time in fucking ages I play more Xcom.
Note - I suck at Xcom when I record it.
Not sure if there is a message there.
>>137176791
>http://imgur.com/a/S1qfx
HOly shit thanks.
>>137177282
This is literally on purpose. You can thank JL the community did not like it however.
>>137177496
Seriously? Why the fuck is it on purpose
>>137177569
JL said something that implied making some missions kind of like unexpected or a stick in the works. Kind of a difficulty modifier via misinformation.
>>137177863
Thats pretty bad game design tbqh
>>137178105
It also doesn't make any sense why XCOM would have bad intel about something as basic as city layouts. Alien-made stuff I'd understand, but not anything made by humans.
>>137178105
>>137178305
This is what drove the community in half against Long War and why Beagle got so burnt out on it. JL's fascist moderation on feedback in the nexus forum and his shitty design ideas even burnt out the likes of Beagle. Basically JL is good at coding, leading a mod team and some foundation design concepts but he is a huge cuntbag at the same time who likes to fuck over players by designing difficulty modifiers in the game that make no sense and are only there because he is the owner of the mod.
>>137178596
>good at coding, leading a mod team and some foundation design concepts but he is a huge cuntbag at the same time
is this ever not the case with a mod as large as LW? I'm convinced they only get along by being cunts
>>137179336
Modders are traditionally very proud people
There's a case study in there somewhere
Pic related is a disgusting way to play this game.
>>137179774
what? you are honoring the fallen soldiers by giving the new rookies their names and weapons.
>>137179912
Related names and a couple of cosmetics, sure. Dead soldier names are bad luck.
>>137180318
is why make multiple of soldier before mission
one name die, other still live
make more soldier so name is of live soldier name, not dead
live soldier name not bad luck
>tfw accidentally fire with an acided unit
>>137180582
I really like your tactics my russian friend.
>>137163680
Are there helmet replacers for the other nep neps?
>>137180719
Wait, what does firing while acided do?
>"Sins of the Father" starts playing
>>137180920
In Long War it damages the unit, I originally typed that it had one health left but I rephrased the message and forgot to re-add it
>>137180920
In Long Dong, the only way to avoid damage-over-time from acid is to have the affected unit hunker down.
>>137181045
>not having either adams or Hissy
Eh, i give your MGS scene a 5/10

>>137181971
That's exactly what I did, and I can't believe the clutch luck I had. A couple of gravely wounded, but everyone lived and are coming home with piles of juicy supplies.
It's ADVENT burgers for that squad tonight, we're taking the Skyranger through drive-thru, Bradford can say what he wants.
>>137183626
Weird. ADVENT Burgers are my squad punishment food. Mainly thanks to the sheer amount of questions we've got flying around the Avenger and some of the resistance havens we call home.

wat do, crashed NOE small fighter

>Implying ADVENT burgers aren't amazing
Also, to the folks talking about the ADVENT off-duty and the potential XCOM operatives pastebins, here's the former and the fatima bio that was made before. If people have other XCOM operatives they'd like to add to the pastebin I could try and compile stuff together for that.

>Patricia Cisneros
She'll be captured during this mission, and kept in stasis for twenty years while they use her a guinea pig for their gene therapies. When she finally comes to, her body will be changed and her memory gone. She'll be given an offier's red uniform and cape.
The only clue she will have to her identity is the shoulder tattoo of a scoreboard with a few tally marks below the name "Patricia".
TNX when senpai?

I managed it lads, only loss was Thunder three (RIP 07777777777777777) who gave his life drawing fire from the outsider and because I just unlocked alloy Shivs so don't need him anymore
>>137186313
>don't need him anymore
>:(
>>137186313
>don't need him anymore
He give his mechanical life for your soldiers, you ungrateful little shit.
>>137186715
At least now he'll be remembered as a hero instead of rotting in the barracks.
>>137186891
He went out in a blaze of glory anon and lets face it, the alloy shiv will be superior in every way except bravery which doesn't matter because its remote controlled
thunder 3, never forget
>>137186925
like that college kid from the walking dead
his best place to die was letting him go in the stairwell
WE NEED EMERGENCY BEAGLES NAO DANNIT NAAAAOOOO
>>137188002
Nobecause i'm mean
Has anyone ever done a Long War mission entirely with Shivs?
>>137188991
Someone actually did Site Recon with Hover SHIVs.
>>137185265
>wanting to tongue-bathe a rifle
>>137189337
How did he have hover shivs by Site Recon?
>>137185265
>>137189438
are there plans to replicate the original Plasma effect? the new beam weapons are cool but feel very not like plasma, and could do with a renaming
>>137189462
This happened a while ago in what I think was B12 or B13 and Site Recon could appear quite late.
>>137189812
Technically all energy weapons are plasma weapons.
