You mean at the end? Beagle basically has run all the 3-Month limit of the demo but, for the last mission, he was in a real life time limit because some Jamball stuff she wanted right at that moment.

Beagle run that last mission on record time despite Jamball literally breathing down his neck the whole time.

Anyone else feel like the change to overwatch (no wasted shots) has made it too strong?

So, new player with a problem.

I have full satellite coverage over South America, but saved the game right before an alien battleship decided to come in the bully everyone. The problem is I can't shoot it down because I only have basic interceptors so it inevitably raises the panic in one of the countries to max.

Do countries still leave if they have a satellite over them? That seems kinda silly.
>>
>>127968418
To be fair it was like dog stuff, and he said something about it's teeth rotting out?
>>
>>127968564
They will still leave. Just engage with an interceptor and then run away instantly. I think the game counts that as attempting to do something and the panic is less. Just spam click on the abort button.

You sound like one of Beagle's sycophant twitch mods that get super aggro on anyone that suggests Jamball isn't the most awesome person in the world. Go sit on a dick.

It's Saturday. The store would most likely close around 5/5:30.
It was only 4 when Jamball started insisting they leave. They still had over an hour and she was being a bitch cause he wanted to spend 5 minutes finishing the final mission.
>>
>>127969172
I just haven't seen this evidence of the "horrifying monster" that Jambal is. Half the time its just people bitchin about the smallest things. And I as I already mentioned I enjoy their DnD nights that Jambal DMs. People are so nosy about other peoples relationships and like to bring their excellent insights.

>>127969045
No it was a power struggle and a battle of wills
Beagle established his dominance and won the fight but I fear Jamball ultimately holds the upper hand in this ongoing war

Why do people say the viper is the true form of the thin men?
Like I get it would be a more original state,
I'm not disputing wither vipers came from thin men or not,
but after being heavily spliced with humans for however long, wouldn't it make sense that some human-eqse features would be retained?
Also does anyone remember what the research on the says?

Well its Vipers->thinmen->Vipers.
The research is codenamed Viperus and it specifically mentions reptillian eyes and snake like orgins

Turning on training roullette is likely to make your campaign more difficult. The base classes are strong. Only turn on roullette for fun run.

Okay, I thought I remember them being reptilian and ...malleable? elastic? on a genetic level.
I just figured this form is closer to it's original state with human bits left over (what with everyone else getting human bits too), then I saw people throwing a bitch fit about it's lack of realism, and wanted to settle things before responding.
Thank you anon,

Just saying, literally everything you listed here was a bad move or your just not aware of how the mod works. Go into the ini and half the repair times for interceptors. Also turn on the second wave option Commander's choice. And read the Long War FAQ in the OP.

Step it up commander
>>
>>127973021
Step one: Get Notepad++ if you don't have it already. Its not necessary but makes it far less of a headache.

Step two: Find DefaultGameCore.INI, it should have enough comments for you to figure out the rest. If you still have questions go to the FAQ in the OP. There are a few things you can't do with the inis, namely the air game, but they are still moddable once you learn how.

The first thing I mod will be starting the game with six soldiers and making the upgrades be for 7 and 8 soldiers and then upping the pod strength by three or four.

More soldiers more better.

Price of doing business. He makes money off of doing streams and XCOM 2 is helping him get more viewers. If he didn't want people to bug him he wouldn't tell them he had a demo copy. But he did so tough shit. Ignoring people on the internet isn't the hard anyway. So unless there is some sort of Taken situation with Jamball he really doesn't have much to bitch about.

Something is strange with beagles game.
I watched the total buscit video and some lifestream from another guy and they get more difficult enemies than beagle.

One guy i saw yesterday played on "Commander" difficulty and got Advanced ADVENT Troopers with 8HP, ADVENT Officers with 10HP, pods with one Viper and 2 sectoids.

What got Beagle ? The same pods every mission with only one boss in a pod and the low HP ADVENT soldiers we see March 1.
Maybe he messed something up with his build or he have an older one.
>>
Is it better to go for cash or engineers?
>>
>>127975716
You daly advents tech progress by doing specific missions from what i know.

So he probably was more sucessfull on his missions than TotallShitter and the other guy.
>>
>>127975716
If build and excavate times are longer in legend then it's safe to assume aliens have longer times until they get upgrades.
>>
>>127975798
engis in most cases, unless its past the first few months and you're strapped.

engineers. You need them to keep building sat uplinks to control panick.

yes, but its still a pretty major buff, if you took the EU system and removed the part where activated pods get to move to cover, it would be LESS abusable since you'll still get one free shot per dude but at least you don't get to position perfectly before it.

They caved in somewhat to babies that went aboohoo over the free turn aliens get on discovery. Now you are almost guaranteed to annihilate the first pod you encounter and without fast reinforcements to overwhelm the defenders making it easy to dig in and demolish.

You'll need to either 1) Make pods patrol overlap and aggro at the same time if close enough to one another or 2) Account for this and throw in one extra pod

I checked Nuuvem but it's unavailable in my country (Amerifat).
Would using a VPN to try work around that limitation have reprecussions when I use the game? It seems to activate through steam so they might realize that I jewed their jewery, but do you think they'd act on it?
>>
>dig in
Timed objectives, with airdropped reinforcements.
>>
>>127976958
Not fast enough to overwhelm the defenders actually. The avenger defense mission had them drop in pairs which were slaughtered the momment their feet touched the LZ and by the time they drop in 4s, the guy had already cleared out the area and was ready to finish. Reinforcements that can break an entrenched player need to be big heavy shit way above your tech level in order to do anything.
