Reasking from last thread
Which soldiers/classes should be priotirized for MECization? I've heard here that jaegers are trash while archers and pathfinders are top tier
Pistols are Useful.
>>145790494
I'd go for archer
>>145790494
Archers are god tier, Goliaths are nigh-unkillable tanks when played right
>>145790494
Oh this is Long War? Well you heard right. Also consider Goliaths for tanks paired with a psionic support medic packing medkit perks/dank smoke/and mind merge (gives bonus DR based on will).
>>145790797
You don't even need the smoke and merge, a well built Goliath has crazy DR and health inherently.
>>145790709
>>145790735
>>145790797
Nice, I've got plenty of gunners and rocketeers
I know there's a minimum grade but do I wait for them to get the maximum grade or is it pointless to go past a certain one?
>>145791065
I'm aware, I'm just referencing this from someones experience with Impossible in B15.
>>145791118
I'm pretty sure you want these guys max ranked if possible.
>>145791236
Alright then
Any perks I shouldn't pass on? Not sure which to choose from Tandem/Javelin/Danger Zone for example
I assume Mayhem is essential
>>145791919
Perks don't carry to Mecs
>>145792267
Oh
So what's the point of waiting for maximum grade?
>>145791919
>Tandem/Javelin/Danger Zone
All of these are actually good, so its up to you. I think people prefer Tandem and Javelin the most
>Tandem
More AOE damage. That's good
>Javelin
With steady aim you can shoot 100% accurate rockets further then line of sight. Pair that with battlescanner/conceal scouts and you can iniate on pods with a rocket strike.
>>145792609
MECs level slower then standard soldiers, and often rely on having all their perks to fullfill their role. There are exceptions, but that's the general rule of thumb.
Archived so I don't ever have to type that all out again.
>>145793001
>press f11 to exit full screen
>>145793137
gahhhhhhhhhhthx
>>145792705
Ah yes that does make sense, thanks
>>145793001
>>145793137
>>145790797
>smoking your tank
>ever
Unless you charged him into 2+ pods you better smoke rest of your team, ayys usually will target your other soldiers since they'll have bigger chaces to hit them than smoked tank.
And you don't want to make your bait/life saver useless while possibly sacraficing other squad mates.
Wow I didnt even know that these Advent posters were in the game.
>>145793734
The dank smoke is for your medic / nearby squad mates for the will boost.
>>145793876
Huh, I didn't either, that's pretty sweet.
>>145793948
I thought you mean smoking for the def bonus, my bad then.
>>145794352
Yeah I should have specified that the smoke is strictly for the will/DR bonus from mindmerge + bonus defense on squishies.
I wonder if we'll reach the last slot of page 10 again.
>>145795005
Take a guess
>>145793876
Are you sure that's not a mod? I never saw any...
>>145795414
Yes
Concealment, In the zone or Hit n run on a reflexes / lone wolf / low profile / battle scanner scout?
I'm sure I could be using her better than I am
>>145796282
Lone wolf and low profile should synergize good with hit and run since you'll be going out for flanks with them.
>>145796282
Sounds like the makings of a conceal scout.
Hit n' Run is always strong (action economy) for a combat scout.
Its a bit late to take ITZ since you passed up ranger and aggression. ITZ scouts are situational anyway.
>>145793876
I think they just got added by a mod no? Most maps?
>>145796681
Moar - fuckin autocorrect.
>>145796437
Yeah, I'm a bit wary of using her like that though since it oftens leads to "triggering" new pockets of ayys and then me getting roflstomped
>>145796571
I don't see concealment being much more than a gimmick, from the description, especially considering AI opponents have computer omniscience
I'm picturing a 5 snipers / 1 scout memeteam but wouldn't the scout get instantly flanked and killed the next turn?
Am I the only person who plays without showing enemy HP?
It feels like it.
>>145796993
Concealment means ultimate battefield intelligence. Its not a gimmick, specially for UFO missions. Its let's your Sniper and rocketeer get set up properly with steady aim, set up overwatch traps, not activate multiple pods. You can prepare for any situation. You should be working towards having an 8 man squad by the way.
>>145797067
Yes.
>>145797067
Yeah, I think so. The new games are so boardgamey and have much less range of damage than the original that I feel like I'm at a severe disadvantage if I turn it off.
>>145797703
wow, file deleted that quickly?
>>145798707
There is one thing on this board the mods do not like, and that is porn
Yes, I like where this is going.
>>145799612
>tfw no 300mm MEC-mounted guns in EW
>>145798795
Partially true - they don't like anything anthropomorphic, be it furry, scalie, or otherwise. Porn just gets it deleted faster. Porn that isn't furry/scalie/etc. tends to be overlooked.
>>145795558
>>145796681
>>145796786
They are in the game we had some body put all of them in an imgur im trying to find it at the moment
>>145799909
Its because people report furry porn, the mods/jannys only delete what gets reported, if you report any form of porn and it gets reported it'll be deleted and you'll probably get a warning or 3 day ban.
>>145800007
>They are in the game
I think the question is whether you could find the posters in-game on map, or if modded maps put them in. We know that their official X2 items from the game files.
>>145800060
True, I forgot the reporting part of the matter. The mods/janitors aren't all-seeing, clairvoyant beings ... or are they?
>>145799854
I'm working on it. Those weapons are supposedly going to be mounted on my ships though.
>>145800242

Am I the only one who treats everyone in Mjolnir like Spartan III's like they were in canon? by sending them to their deaths constantly?

>>145800813
>People who have gifts would of course use them for beneficial or wise purposesExplain Notch spending all his time on Twitter essentially shitposting then.
>>145800189
I'am fairly certain that the city vip missions sometimes would have them inside some of the buildings
>>145801015
I mean if they had gifts like that they would be moderating 4chan for free
After almost 200 hours I still fucking hate Gatecrasher. The only mission in the whole game where grenades don't destroy half of the cover in the area and where the only good cover is 500m away from the closest enemy.
Fuck Gatecrasher.
Inb4 git gud

i completely feel you, bruh

>>145801549
i don't think anyone but a troll is going to disagree with you there.
mods can fix it:^)
>>145801745
>>145801549
I feel like there needs to be a mod with a re-worked Gatecrasher.
Is the Berserker Queen supposed to start the mission off by mauling any nearby ADVENT soldiers?
>>145801745
>download operation quickstart
But then I feel like a cheater (not that I have anything to prove anything, I already beat the game, but you know).
>>145800189
I dont know I saw it in one of those buildings where its like a recruitment center with a receptionist desk in the front and in the back is the weird dissection tables and jails.
>>145802203
>>145801128
Guess I'll have to pay attention then.
Fucking Attrition Mode + Additional Mission Types = no joke. Goddamn 4th mission of this playthru.
Nobody's a rookie anymore after that shit...

She just tore an entire pod apart before I even revealed her from the fog of war. Talk about rough loving.
>>145804324
Looks fun
>>145804516
It was.
Until we started running out of ammunition...
>>145804379
It clearly mocked her inability to dunk in basketball.
>>145804324
>>145803684
Is that a long war X-com 2 style?
Link?
>>145804656
What do you do on attrition mod with no ammo?
>it's a you're casually playing a terror attack and you hear heavy mechanical sounds for the first time from the fog of war episode
w-what is it lads
>>145805517
Might be a mechtoid, might be a cyberdisk, might be your lucky day and be your first sectopod
>>145805703
Heavy and slow mechanical footsteps I might add*
Of those 3 I've only seen cyberdisks so far so I'd assume it's a mechtoid?
>>145806029
What month are you in? But probably yes
>>145806134
June 2016Is it dangerous
>>145806313
It'll be a mechtoid, if you haven't nerfed the aim prepare for fullcover crits
>>145801879
it's not cheating, Anon.
it's just improving the quality of life of the game
>>145804759
Cower and pray the rest of the squad are good shots with the remaining ammo left.
The problem is in the Defend the Haven mode you cant evac for 12 turns while waves of enemies are incoming. Every shot counts. Have to have real good fire discipline and not take low percentage shots. I had 3 members go winchester on me that mission - made it rough to survive. I lost the 4 scripted rookies that reinforce during the fighting.
>>145804739
There is no LW for 2 yet, no one has done enough of an overhaul type mod. That wont come for some time if ever. It's a weakness of the modding scene that everyone wants to be modular. It makes balancing difficult as its left up to the user to juggle.
These are the two mods I mentioned.

Haven't released it yet. Currently waiting on the MJOLNIR armours guy to see if I can edit his helmets for use with this.
>>145806383
Ah yes I see now, good thing he can only one shot 2 of my troopers per turn
>>145803684
Pretty nice mang.
>>145807428
They're the one enemy I nerfed in the ini's, by default they are far too strong.
>>145807257
Neato
>>145807592
I see they can also get 6 bonus hp from mind merge
>>145808240
That 6 is more like 30 unless you kill the merger as it also gets high DR while merged
>>145808329

Not even a real life planefu? How can you look the pure sexiness that is the SU-35 and not go "fuck thats my planefu"
>>145812250
Honestly its such garbage and the description actually tries to make it sound good so go ahead and feel free tocheat. No one will judge you on this one.
The way to do it is just add a perk using the XCOM in-game console. You have to add them during a tactical mission. You'll have to look up how to do it though, I've kinda forgotten.
>>145812363
>>145812259

Every time they update the mod with a new plot it's always a catastrophe. There's almost always holes in the map, cover not working or in their newest plot, which they removed, pods weren't showing up. And it always takes them 2-3 updates of the map to fix it.
It's obvious they have no idea what they're doing and should probably stop while they're ahead
Xbone gave Xcom: Enemy Unknown to us for free. This game is first of all fucking amazing. 18 hours in and im starting over now that I got a bit of feel for the game on a fresh new save. Any tips or strats you guys can share about Xcom Enemy Unknown to a rookie?

>>145818154
Assuming you're on Normal, make sure you hunker down in half cover if your odds of hitting an Ayy are low.
Fuck Thin Mints, kill them with explosives or good aim.
You'll eventually have to goCLOSE RANGE?to capture an Ayy, so make sure you're well equipped to execute it if the attempt fails.
>>145818154
Make sure you spam satellites. To build satellites you need satellite uplinks. To build satellite uplinks you need engineers. Launch your sats at the end of the month to save full panic nations.
Snipers are extemely strong once they get squadsight, you just have to baby them till then. Explosives never miss. If you ever feel like your in a pickle (read, someone might die) don't hesitate to use your nades/rockets.

Just started Xcom 2.
It's not even fucking fun, just endless bullshit.
What's the point in having all these customization options for my soldiers? Jane Kelly is going to get critted in full cover by a flashbanged stun lancer anyway (after already getting critted in full cover by a codex earlier)
I don't remember the last game being so random and frustrating.
Yeah you would get randomly killed in the OG, but in the OG you also had 12 or more soldiers instead of a pathetic 4 or 5.
>>145821053

/xcg/ confirms that fun things are not fun.
>>145821053
>Just started Xcom 2.
Its has no more bs then in XCOM1 when you factor everything in. Some people think its easier. You will have to adjust your tactics from X1, not everything straight transfers.

He just resents him for having all the fun.
>>145821237
Codexes are more bullshit than anything in Xcom 1 by themselves.
>>145821517
A single flash bang absolutely destroys them. Their AI doesn't even let them shoot on their first turn after being activated.
>>145821517
Am I the only one who gets extremely annoyed by those drone cunts that float right behind your cover and flank you with their damage just high enough to one-crit-shot your low hp troopers
fucking early game cunts

>>145821801
Well yeah, fighting multiple ayys sucks. I've haven't had an issue with codexes though. Honestly standard mutons in X1 are more bs (intimidate).

Yeah if you're trying to evac someone bleeding out or a VIP you had to subdue.
Or someone dies with a price of gear you want to retrieve.
>>145825009
Yes.
What's the matter, Anon, don't you agree thatsuffering is fun?
>>145825430
It's a good mechanic it's just like a lot of 2 poorly implemented.
What was that rumor about the Shen's Last Gift MEC ranks begin Knight-based?
>>145825992
Its not a rumor
>>145826057
Good to know.

Treat half cover like no cover, overwatch like a motherfucker, explosives are your friend. Don't rush ahead and don't take shots you can't afford to miss.
Vigilo Confido. Suffer not the ayyy to live.
>>145826810
Umm
>>145827051
Oh yea sorry, I meant to say its just your superior stock.
I was trimming my junk and I accidentally snipped into a mole on the underside of my nuts
it's bleeding so much
HELP
>>145827386
XCOM 1 doesnt have weapon attachments...?
>>145827548
That's normal. Apply pressure and a medkit to the wound before your bleedout timer runs out.
I'm afraid you're going to suffer a -15 penalty to will now though. :^)
>>145825917
>poorly implemented
Why, Anon?
Personally, I just wish xcom 2 was made on unreal 4 so it could handle the designs and plans the developers had in mind.
>>145827590
Ok fine anon it was a bug that occurred for no discern-able reason. I have nothing more to tell you.
>>145827548
You've got three turns just calm down.
>>145827548
On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your pain?
Anyway, wash the wound and get a cloth to stem the bleeding. If it's something worthy of stitches, call 911 or whatever emergency number your country utilizes.
Otherwise wait until the bleeding stops, then if you have neosporin or some antiseptic put it on the wound. I hope those scissors aren't rusty.
>>Silly ded bodies... AGAIN
WHY
In Beags new live and legendary video you can really see how it doesn't challenge him and he doesn't find it very interesting while he steamrolls ayys, compare that with the stream where interesting and challenging things happen. I suppose that's down to mods making it better than vanilla.

Can you post more screenshots of your campaign if you have them?
So I tried the spectrum complete overhaul mod. This was my second mission. Is this supposed to happen?
Not shown: 3 more pods and a mech with 40 health and 10 armor.
How were the Sassy viper poses done? Which program?
>>145827729
>>145827823

>>145827931

it barely hurts it all, it just won't stop bleeding and what if it gets infected and I die of septic nuts
>>145828559
They were done extremely well, Anon.:^)
>>145828610
Let it clot first, clean it up later
>>145828414
I mean I could and I have, I just don't think og x-com screenshots are very interesting. Its hard to see what's going on and they usually don't tell a story.
Also because of how I play the entire map is usually covered in smoke 24/7 which only make s it harder to see what's happening. Also not every pretty. But if there's anything your particularity interested in I would be happy to.
>>145828636
The reason I'm asking is because I want to give the Berserkers a "chimp out" idle pose.
>>145828748
Is that a muton with an AXE?
I just miss Modded Commander's playthroughs of FMP on/v/He started streaming sometimes too, on hotbox or whatever that alternative to twitch is called. It was pretty comfy.
>>145826691
>capnazi
i would rather ally with an ayy
>>145829187
>>145828924
I have no idea, Anon. I wish I did, because the sassy viper animations are incredible.
>>145828610
Apply pressure. Lots of pressure. Then clean with an anti-septic/anti-bacteria soap or something. And bandage.
>>145828226
I liked how the window keep doing that noise as well.
>>145829496
>>ADVENT Bradford.
No...
>>145829027
>Modded Commander's
Oh yea I followed some of those, they were pretty comfy. The only thing is that what he did actually takes alot of effort. Playing the game and the taking the time to screenshot and then recap isn't easy. Alot of missions are pretty business as usual as well.
I won't promise anything, but if things are slow and I have a missions coming up that I think is interesting I'll consider posting them.
As for this particular picture, its actually a faction known as the Mercenaries. They employ the same synthetic fiber weave whatever nonsense orginal xcom mutons used for their armor. Its lightweight and has excellent resistance to piercing/ballistic weapons (.6 damage multiplier). They are extremely tough and have good melee skills as well, so sometimes they have daggers, axes, or mono-claws paired with pistols.
My first run in with them almost ended with the entire squad being killed, only 3 soldier survived. This time I brought energy weapons and was able to take them down relatively cleanly. I still don't mess with them too much because they usually have plasma weapons on top of their very good aim, reactions, and health.
>>145828535
That's Spectrum baby
Which facilities are considered best to start with XCOM2 - AWC and guerilla or rescoms?
>>145830481
Generally agreed upon is guerilla then AWC.

He says he was going to make a tutorial vid but this was apparently back in February.

>Free mutants killed by others
So Piratez has the equivalent of terror missions?
>The only thing is that what he did actually takes alot of effort.
Yeah, that is true...
It had a moment of doubt but Beagle is on a good standing in this campaign.
>>145831364
>So Piratez has the equivalent of terror missions
Yep, Mutant Progroms. The Culling of the mutant population by different hostile factions.
PirateZ takes place in a universe where x-com failed, which if you've seen the defeat screen, most of the entire worlds populations are turned into mutants. "Pure" blood humans are now a minority. The earth is ruled by the ethereals through proxy by several major factions. Your just some rogue factions off to ruin the major factions days with your freedom, looting, and killing. Since your mutant pirates, your in an alliance with the Free Mutants, and purely buisness alliance with smuggles, and are paid protetction money by the local governments to not raid their stuff (which you still can if you want to).
>>145831524
Hey, this one wasn't in their official imgur album - where did you get it? Google search by image does nothing.
A POI I want to know more about is this one. Is it an alien single-person fighter craft?
Stream is Over.
I know if I try to hack that fuckin mec and fail both those packs will scatter. I don't think hacking the turrets to open makes sense either.
Should I just open with the Grenadier instead? I feel like I want to get red fog on as many of them as possible for the upcoming gunfight. I am scared my damn hacker will fail like he always does - no skulljack yet its beginning month 3
I can try and hack a turret when they scatter I guess.
>>145832543
what UI mod is that?
>>145832224
From here. Someone posted a very complete set and even made a site to share them but I don't have the link right now.
As for your pic we did come to the conclusion that someone was making Jeagers to fight the TFtD aliens for the sequel.
>>145832543
generally opening with grenade is not a bad idea. Opening with a hack seems a bit odd since even after that pod scatters, it won't change your hack chances, and may even make you decide to take a different course of action once you see where they go. I don't really know your squad composition though,so its hard to give advice.
>>145832587
Um I use Quick soldier info, Lifetime stats, and additional Icons.
I ini tweaked the additional Icons a bit to just show me the enemies names no stats. I play without showing enemy HP or additional info on them.
