And you know what!? IT WAS YOU!

>>144750490
>instead of a new EW
We're getting an EW style expansion anyway.
>>144750580
Yeah I doubt that at this point
I'll say it again because I don't have enough knowledge to say otherwise, but doesn't this just make it a PC port?
X2 isn't anymore casualized then X1 was in comparison when released, and I'm not sure I buy the concept that Firaxis would have made a smooth running game otherwise.
I guess I just want some actual evidence beside, "lel you've been tricked."pistols are useful
Anyway this will be the discussion for the next who knows how long with ridiculous assumptions and arguments about why this is why everything is shit, so time to bunker down irregardless of whatever the facts end up being.

Don't worry, it'll be passed by tomorrow.
>dumping money into a doomed console release
This had to have been planned from the beginning seeing as it's only been a few months since launch. Were they planning on making console players jealous with the pretend "PC only" release so that the console release would get more sales?
>>144751160
Yes.
>>144751160
>soon this place will be filled with consoleplebs
>>144749978
Does anyone here actually know anything about how long it takes to port to console? I genuinely do not know, and would like to know. I'll go google in the meantime.
>>144751359
about ten minutes if you don't care
>>144751357
It's already been filled with consoleplebs... For 30 minutes.
>>144751359
Depends on the dev, the porting team is apparently a relatively small group of ex-Treyarch devs
>>144751359
Considering it's Unreal Engine 3, which was designed with consoles in mind, probably not that hard. Especially considering the previous game was on consoles and worked just fine.
>>144751473

>>144751771
Don't be
>>144751771
I would be if I didn't already see the end game stuff was basically the same as the Xcom 1 endgame stuff and not like super higher tech.
I guess I have to wait for expansion again.

>>144751506
>>144751463
So then why does anyone care? It comes out in September. I guess I just don't care, as long as its actually a PC Port to console. The important part was it being developed initially for PC release, not that it would be forever a PC exclusive.
there's controller icons on the sdk
>>144752589
yeah no shit, it's unreal engine assets
>>144752703
They could also be leftovers from EW.
But that's no fun.
Is there seriously no mod that removes the blue concealment smoke/vignetting effect?
>>144750490
>tfw you even bought the dlcs
>>144752141
I care because it means the PC version has to play by the Console version's "rules" because they can't fuck over the console players.
At least we have mods.

This is certainly a reason to be mad. The reason that Xcom 2's PC exclusivity was good was so it wouldn't be held back by console limitations. We could have huge areas, large number of enemies, tons more textures loaded at once.
If this was planned from the beginning and wasn't just 2k bugging Firaxis to do it later. It means that the PC version isn't as robust as it could be, still held back by shitty consoles.
Course the opposite could still be true. The console port could be heavily downgraded. They certainly won't be able to handle a large number of enemies at once without the game starting to chug along and it won't look nearly as good and if the port is bad, then Firaxis doesn't take the blame since they are only assisting and it's up to a third party
Just report and move on lads.

Of course it didn't, it's literally one PC player shitposting.

Hey, Reddit. Enjoy your stay. Swing by /tesg/ you might like them better, you can trip and attentionwhore to your hearts content.
How does 2 compare to LW? I found all the different facets of builds and classes a little overwheming to have all at once after jumping in straight from EU. Does 2 spread it out at all or am I just going to have to git gud and look it all up?
>>144756503
But without IDs there is no way you can tell that I did reply 5 times to your post.
>>144757161
2 and LW are completely different. 2 is a lot less difficult and complicated than LW
>>144756365
Thank you anon, I needed this
>being appalled by ids
Yeah, it was fun shitposting and samefagging with no issues that people might call out your shit back in 200X but we had nothing better back then.
>upvotes are bad
Sure they are. They only work for the Q&A format.
I keep coming back to vg exclusively when I find a new game to play, but the shitposting of old memes by teens is a true boner-killer.
In the meantime, are there any Crysis mods floating around?
>>144757263
You're wrong
>>144757803
Literally just go to reddit. I don't even mean that condescendingly, but if they have the system you want, then why not be there?
Each system has its own pros and cons, I hang out here because I prefer it, but I'll check the Xcom reddit now and then to see if they have something we missed. If you can't see the pros and appeal of the 4chan layout, well that's too bad.
I have not personally noticed any crysis mods.
>>144757861
He's not.
>>144757803
Just use a standard forum or reddit, its everything you want
>>144757263
I was under the impression that 2 took quite a few ideas from LW. And from what I've seen of LW, I don't doubt that 2 has less complexity and difficulty than LW. I'd just like to know how much this is the case
>>144757161
>>144758290
>I don't doubt that 2 has less complexity and difficulty than LW. I'd just like to know how much this is the case
2 has less complexity then EU.
LW is a fairly large step up from EU.
>>144758415
2 is more complex than EU, its about on par or less complex than EW
>>144758415
>>144758290
I'd say X2 is about as complex as EU. One could argue X2 is less complex then EW, but its not by much.
The biggest actual difference is how harshly X2 punishes overwatch camping and moving a tile at a time, but that's a tactical change.
>>144757803
>Teens

>>144758415

Come on now no need to shitpost.
>>144758856

It's not shitposting if it's true.
>>144758856
There used to be a persistent poster who claimed that, he probably came back for the announcement.
>>144758856
Hey famiglia, hella neat screenshot you have there
>>144758923
>airgame
>complexity
I said don't shitpost. Maybe you have forgotten how trivial it was in vanilla.
>console xcom 2 is going to have full mod support
expect lots of angry consolefags whining about how modders won't transfer their mods over to consoles.
>>144758923
The xcom2 map scanning airgame is just as complex as the EU/EW airgame.
And you're shitposting about the management.
>>144759032
it was trivial yes but it was something.
2 you have what? A doom counter that you set back by just playing the game.
>>144759257
You had to buy fighters, satellites and make sure they didn't blow up/had enough fighter cover
I'm not saying EU was the pinnacle of strategy but come on, 2 is linear as fuck as far the as strategy layer goes.
>>144759370
>2 you have what? A doom counter that you set back by just playing the game.
Ok you're shitposting, thank you
>>144759431
>put forth an argument
>WAAAH shitposter!
/xcg/, /xcg/ never changes.
I'll be glad when consoleshits shit up this general.
XCOM 2 was a mistake.
>>144759370
>2 is linear as fuck as far the as strategy layer goes.
And so is EU. Even if (if) the strategic layer was slightly more complex, that wouldn't make it more complex then X2. Any differences are really negligible.
>>144759431
Or maybe he just has a different opinion.
>>144759535
>Or maybe he just has a different opinion.
Except its obviously untrue and then he made this >>144759528 comment. If someone says something designed to stir shit that is obviously wrong its fairly obvious what they're trying to do
>>144759431
you're the only shitposter here
>>144759370
what he's saying is true though. there's tons of story based quests that can remove the counter.
>blacksite
>codex
>avatar

as for EW you only have the alien base assault and some random chance of having one.
power management is very easy and there's only two times you need to worry about positioning "power relays and workshops.
>>144759694
maybe it's a polarizing point of view to take? please don't be the guy that argues for ids because then Reddit is the perfect place for you.
>>144759694
I don't agree.
>If someone says something designed to stir shit that is obviously wrong its fairly obvious what they're trying to do
It could be but you don't know that, its not an uncommon opinion. Its not even that big of a deal, some people liked X1 better then 2. That's fine.
Complexity isn't even a really good measure of something. og x-com is way more complex than both of these games, but alot was unnecessary and didn't make contribute to what made it a great game.
>>144759938
>maybe it's a polarizing point of view to take?
Its not a point of view, he's flat out lying about xcom2 to complain about it. Theres more than just the doom counter to the xcom 2 strategy layer and even then the doom counter after the patches is more complex than just do the story missions and the odd facility mission.
>please don't be the guy that argues for ids because then Reddit is the perfect place for you.
What the fuck does that have to do with anything?
>>144760076
I'm not criticising him for his opinion, I'm criticising the fact he's lying about the features of xcom2 just to whine about it.
If I said EU had no strategy layer beyond "do the alien base" it'd be clear what my intentions are.
For me it kind of balances out - strategically, EU has a leg up in terms of complexity. I love both 2 and EU, but that's just the way it is imo. However, there's no arguing that XCOM2 has a considerably deeper tactical game. It solved the biggest design flaw with the last game, namely that any good player had to advance at the pace of a fucking snail. Timers were a great way of counteracting that.
>>144760208
But all you're saying is that he's wrong, you aren't saying WHY.
>>144760208
> just do the story missions and the odd facility mission.
and pick minor or major breakthrough to minimize the doom counter. that's all there is to it. you don't have to balance panic countries that lost contact can be reestablished, there's no airgame to add another layer to complexity, base building is brain dead compared the first one.
>>144760336
Because saying the only part of the xcom 2 strategy layer is the doom ticker is obviously absurd I didn't think I needed to but if you need to me to walk you through the strategy layer I will.
Scanning is about making strategic choices about what you need in a limited amount of time.
With the recent patches you do need to put strategic thought into your scans and contacts otherwise you'll lose to the doomticker
Base management is on par with vanilla EU
Dark Events require strategic thought into what you can't realistically deal with
The airgame and EU strategy layer was no more complex than the xcom2 strategy layer, theres arguments for EW because of MECs, gene mods and Exalt but not EU
>>144760583
You obviously haven't played in a while.
>>144760757
>Dark Events require strategic thought into what you can't realistically deal with
>Hidden event
>>144760261
but delaying the officer skulljack is still the best way of playing the game. you don't have to deal with codex early and when you gain plasma and run and gun which will makes codex's clone ability a non issue.
>>144760757
that's retarded, since most of the time the scans are worthless and it's better to prioritize taking the improved build time bonus
>>144761023
>Hidden event
>literally 20 intel to see what it is
>>144761030
You do know all you need to take out a Codex is a flashbang? It's pretty simple even with ballistics.
>>144761030
>since most of the time the scans are worthless and it's better to prioritize taking the improved build time bonus
A lot of the time they're not and thats part of the strategy, you really sound like you haven't played since before the patch and going by how you used to cry about this constantly I think thats true.
>>144761023
Its almost like theres a strategic choice in choosing whether to spend intel on revealing it.
>>144761030
>needing to delay codex till plasma to deal with them
>>144761276
my first run is when alien hunter is released. i can't imagine how stupidly easy pre-patch strategic game is with how you're constantly going MUH OLD PATCH every post.
>>144761251
>Able to afford 20 intel
Never played legend, huh?
>>144761670
I think you're lying, either you're playing on the lowest difficulty, lying or really shit at the game and going by your comment on Codices I think its the last one.
>>144761670
And the only difference is that in EU you're forced to lose 2 missions every time they show up so countries raise in panic.
Why do you act like this is somehow better?

>>144761880
It feels more tense, and i prefer it that way.
I just remembered Jake making that Twitter post saying "There's a 95% chance XCOM2 will be on consoles".
Anyone have that?
Literally what is even the point of this console release? Didn't the original sell like dogshit on consoles?
If they put bare minimum effort in to make sure to get some kind of profit, it's sure to hurt their credibility. Then if they put a lot of effort in, will they even make enough money back to justify the decision?
What a fucking weird ass announcement.
>>144762232
Feels more tense? What about it feels more tense? The fact that you have no control over it?
It was by far the worst part of EU.
>>144762463
To be fair i got into Xcom thanks to the console release of EU when it got gifted for the PSPlus users
>>144762541

The campaigns were going to be boring after the covenant war ended anyway.
All the plot lines left are ancient robot humans, rebels, or civil war
When's the fucking proper expansion? This console port is going to sell a whole 2 copies.
>>144771082
I totally forgot about the vanilla los indicator its been so long, but honestly the argument for the legitimacy of a utility like "gotcha" is only strengthened. There are also still unusual interactions with flanked/not flanked and the squad-sight indicator is extremely nice. Thanks for reminding me.
>>144771634
1 year minimum after release.
>>144771634
Next year probably, we still need Shen's last gift.
>>144771841
Isn't shen's last gift suppose to be the EW-esq dlc?
>>144771783
Actually, the fact that Gotcha gives you a squadsight LoS indicator and a objective LoS indicator technically does make it a cheat.
>>144771917
No, they clearly stated the the three initial dlc did not take the place of a full EW style expansion. If the game sold well (which it did) they stated an expansion would be in the works.
Its only EW-esque in that its adding a class probably related to MECs
>>144772165
Ohhh, didn't hear about that. Well they might show a teaser for it at e3 hopefully for it.
>>144772114
>"technically" does make it a cheat
Well yeah, but then all were doing then is re-establishing the "all mods are cheats" rule.
>>144772328
>teaser
Kinda doubt it, more likely to get Shen stuff
>>144772423
Well, yeah probably, but I dunno if they'd show like a trailer for dlc or anything that isn't being pushed as a proper expansion, but maybe.
>>144768596
How? It reduces more delays than Zip Mode.
>>144772423
>Well yeah, but then all were doing then is re-establishing the "all mods are cheats" rule.
Now you're just over-reacting. Technically as in it provides you with information that you would otherwise not have, information that's actually very important in situations where it matters.
I've had missions where I've had to adjust my plan to make sure I get into a position to have line of sight on the objective for example (hack terminal on train is a common one). If I had Gotcha, it would have been significantly easier since I could just scan for the optimal position rather than having to play it safe.
>>144767673
At the moment I'm trying to rescue my local files and rebuild the mod. Someone advised me to recalculate the normals for each mesh which ended up turning entire sections invisible. Somehow I fucked my backups as well which adds to the mess.
I don't really know what's causing that particular issue but I'll ask around and see.
>>144767938
That should be solved, the last update pretty much took all the shininess away from the legs.
Be advised Commander a F2P Russian MMO XCOM has just landed.

It doesn't change the rules of the game, it makes the rules of the game more clear. You can still figure out that information with enough squinting, its not inaccessible purposefully. Jake didn't wake and say "I want to implement a system where its hard to tell what your sniper can see."
Does it make the game easier? Yes. Does that make it a cheat, actually no, its still a utility mod like numeric health display.
A retroactive AWC actually changes the way the game is played. That's why people considered a cheat. Not because it makes the game easier.

>Does that make it a cheat, actually no, its still a utility mod like numeric health display.
But that's wrong. Numeric health display doesn't give you any more information than you already know, it just makes it more digestible. The difference is that Gotcha gives you a CONFIRMATION of LoS rather than you having to rely on your assumptions based on experience. It's a cheat, get over it.

ODST/Marinebro if you're still hear, I've asked it before in one of the past threads and on the mod page, but that got buried in comments,but I was wondering if it'd be possible to add in dutch's helmet, since it was already made by ninja I think, though I imagine you get swamped with requests so if it's not something you'd want to do then its fine.
>>144777459
Seems unlikely, different studio and why try the same thing again?

>>144781259
>Why
I was wondering this too. Thankfully, the weapons are apparently slightly more powerful than the default "resistance" variants, which I think is a neat touch(superior oldCOM tech and all that.)
I looked around in the .ini file to see if I could make it so that you had an infinite amount, but couldn't find any.
Also the kitbashing and customization work is just the icing on the cake.
>>144781259
I think its a conflict with Alien Hunters dlc.
>>144781806
>Thankfully, the weapons are apparently slightly more powerful than the default "resistance" variants
Please tell me it has configs to turn this shit off
IF THIS IS COMING TO CONSOLE DOES THAT MEAN THEY'LL HAVE TO OPTIMIZE IT?

>>144781894
You can change the values in the .ini, I believe.
>>144781806
>I looked around in the .ini file to see if I could make it so that you had an infinite amount, but couldn't find any.
I think that should be in an .uc file in the mod folders somewhere.
>>144781835
i dont thnk its a conflict, the game just defaults mod weapons to be AH weapons unless the creator changes it in the mod files
>>144782008
I'd like to think that's almost guaranteed, given how shit X2 still runs on many machines despite attempted optimizations.
I really don't know why the fuck they're porting to consoles. From what I understand, EU sold like ass on consoles, despite being a fairly good portthough I could never imagine playing a turn-based tactics game with a fucking controller
They'd have to do some absurd optimizations in order to get X2 to run on consoles. If they don't, it'll be the blunder of the century.

>You don't need a mouse to select where to move,free aim grenades/rockets or press buttons
No, you don't, but it seems a hell of a lot nicer than a gamepad.
I wouldn't know though.
>>144773372
Off to a strong start
>>144783036
>gamepad
You use the joystick
I feel like the controller vs. mouse doesn't matter too much for a turn-based game, because you can take your time on an input and there isn't anything you've got to react to quickly anyway.
>>144782791
there is a mod that changes it to be a very expensive proving grounds project

Both, I play with slightly darker blue tinted shadows for extra contrast, lumasharpen to counter the blur caused by FXAA and then just a tiny bit of vibrance. Nothing fancy.

>>144786632
Don't go into the nest. At least not until Magnetic weapons.
Be warned.
Also the Alien Hunter's weapons can be upgraded in the Armory, but the game doesn't give you any indication so it's easy to miss.
>>144786925
magnets, how the fuck do they work?
>>144788020
The north pole of one magnet attracts the south pole of a second magnet, while the north pole of one magnet repels the other magnet's north pole. So we have the common saying: like poles repel, unlike poles attract. A magnet creates an invisible area of magnetism all around it called a magnetic field.

He's got all of the footage recorded from the Live and Legendary campaign, he just needs to edit and put everything together. Actual spoilers:0 soldier losses in the campaign, it's very likely he just steamrolled everything right after mag weapons + advanced grenade launcher and eventually proximity mine shenanigans.
I can understand why he's not uploading though. Everyone's completely over XCOM 2 vanilla, the hype for it has died down. People are interested in seeing modded campaigns now. If or when he decides to upload more episodes from his vanilla campaign, would that many people still be interested in watching now that they've become accustomed to game changing mods? He might have 20 missions in a row of him effortlessly blowing up aliens with grenadiers, would it be entertaining enough to bother uploading? How would you make it exciting when you stomp through everything? Would it be heavily edited down to only show tough missions? I'm not sure how I would handle it myself.
I hope he does finish it though, same with LnI. I've got enough time invested in the series that I want to see their conclusion, especially for LnI.

Unlikely, since it's made from everything a human being needs to grow and live. Also, the ayylmaos cured all human diseases and whatnot.

>>144810417
Annoyed that they hyped it up and confused as to why they're doing it when the last one sold so poorly but we already got our mod support so whatever.
Now I'm just worried that the port might hurt the inevitable EW style expansion because of console limitations/ making three versions at once.
>>144810417
i really dont care

Huh, it broke for me and a few other people I was talking to after AH came out.
>>144810725
i also had an issue after AH came out but i checked the launch options to enable the console commands and it worked

are you serious? he's been very active for the last year, he is by far the best youtuber lately. (LGR is also very good)
>>144811034
>are you serious?
Why wouldn't I be? I stopped watching all the crap on the machinima channel around 2012 anyway.
>he is by far the best youtuber lately.
Yeah, I can tell your opinion is unbiased and you aren't going to blow this conversation out of proportion.
>>144795213
Big tits mod when?
So there's no downside to obliterating enemies with explosives in xcom 2?
>>144813029
HCOM mod when?
>>144813029
Not soon enough.
>>144813491
There is one enemy per map who is carrying loot. If it is killed by explosives then the loot is destroyed.
>>144813491
Just as there's no downside to using explosives on enemies in real life.
>>144813029
NOW,I wish

The more I look at this, the more I think I'm going to have a seizure
I'm not even a /k/ommando
>>144807167
>someone thought this was a good weapon design
>>144807167
the fuck is this
>>144818662
Someone thought it was a COOL weapon design. There's a slight difference
>>144818570
>>144818662
>>144818751
I don't understand what everyone's problem is. That gun looks fine to me.

pls stop
Has double-barrel anon released his mod yet?
>>144819770
>Someone made that and thought it was a good idea
>>144821060
The handle is too tongue-in-cheek. There's no way someone didn't make that unironically
>>144821254
>There's no way someone didn't make that unironically
You have never met art majors. They have never SEEN a real gun, let alone handled one.
>>144821254
The handle triggers my autism to no end
>>144819770
>>144821060

Equally as bothering.
>>144819770
the trigger TRIGGERS me every time
>>144821354
this, a million times this
>>144821708
It could be worse.
>>144822089
Thats a pretty dinky bayonet considering the rest of that thing
>>144822089
kek, did Bad Dragon design a gun?
>>144823047
I will never understand the tiny bayonet meme, I don't get how you could ever think something like that is even remotely useful

>>144818751
The Vex Mythoclast, from Destiny. It's a Scout Rifle.
>>144823047
It is a fruit knife, not a bayonet. It is so whatever idiot who buys the gun will get some use out of it.
>>144824335
they actually sell this shit?! i thought it was crappy concept art
>>144824676
It is, but if someone actually had one all it could do is slice fruit.
>>144824136
That should be attached to xcom mec
>>144804076
>EMP overseer UFO
>Pull both Sectopod pods in first two moves.
I wish I could stay in Tier 1 forever, maybe limit my guys max level to sergeant and stop the enemy progression at the first muton and make the game much longer. I fucking love the early stages, every decision feels so vital. Late game is fun and all but you just have so many ways to wipe out multiple pods simultaneously in one turn it just doesn't feel like strategy anymore.
>>144825560
tbqh it would be underkill compared to what they usually carry, it looks big but it's only loaded with slugs
>>144826596
Have you suddenly forgotten how powerful shotguns are in XCOM?
>>144826838
sure, but MECs carry miniguns and railguns. An oversized slug gun isn't shit compared to them
>>144827546
>not equipping a mec with an automatic shotgun chambered in 23×75mmR
>>144827546
But suppression with an auto shotgun has style points
>>144827918
>Gets it
>>144827918
fine, I admit that would be tits
>>144827959
true
>>144807896
I didn't know this got colored at some point, neato. I only had the version from up >>144796740 here before. +1 snek collection.

>Ruler reaction no longer triggers on movement

The fact that it does is fucking absurd, you just stand there and take shots and wish for luck, there's 0 strategy at taking out Rulers apart from "lol freeze bomb".

Be thankful you didn't everything leading up to it like I did.
>>144829307
I colored it anon
thanks for the double (you) :^)
>>144833314
Neat - did you also do the line drawing? It's a few months old at this point, but still a nice one. Regardless of that, I still like the coloring job, so A+ job on that!
>>144833653
No, I can't draw. I'm sure the anon who did is still around here.
>>144834791
Do i see an hk logo on there
>>144834791
>Bullpup yet not a bullpup
>rifle yet also a grenade launcher
>scope is half a foot off the gun
S-Stop that.
>>144836347
Think of the squad multiplier!
>>144836320
Kinda.
>>144836347
If I remember correctly the 'scope' is also a rangefinder micro-computer to help you put those grenades in the right spot.
>>144806116
There needs to be a mod that gravely wounded soldiers have the ability to just die in medbay.
>>144837424
Oh yes I reaaally need this. As it stand right now I don't feel like X2 has enough rng.
>>144837592
Im with you anon
>it's a "rupture on ranger" episode
>>144837710
Are you? Why don't you roll some dice to be sure.
>>144836347
It's not over
So there's a mod for managing your soldier's uniforms...but is there any mod that lets you choose their kit? Having to manually remove and equip gear to each squad as it deploys is frigging annoying
So I've tried X2.
All I have to say is Long War was more enjoyable, X2 is missing that insane depth LW had. Maybe mods would fix it, but it's just not filling the space after LW.
I might do another LW run...if /xcg/ wants to, I can blogpost here as usual.
I hope you guys remember me atleast T~T
>>144831042
so it's just an EU berzerker that can take other actions besides running toward the source of the shot? I don't understand why they didn't just do that from the start.
>>144839776
yes.
yes i do.
fucking madman.
>>144791869
I'm pretty sure you can sell those at the blackmarket if you don't want them.
>>144839961
EU Berzerkers charge you only when you hit them. Rulers get a free move every time you perform an action, unless that action is free (such as grappling hook, or hair-trigger activation)
Considering how bad was performance, I really want to see it.
And one very important thing: let's face it, nuCOM is designed to be played with a controller (i.e. consoles), that's why everything is oversimplified. I blame everything on firaxis. They shit on everything, even their own work. And 2K was just an enabler.
That said,
>PC exclusive! come and get it!
>almost half a year later
>lol nope!
I wonder if sales were any different if it wasn't advertised as pc exclusive.
>tfw amazing simple mod idea but no feasible way to download EIGHTY GIGABYTES OF LOOSE ASSETS
