Yeah, I think there's certainly several ways to tweak the assault tree. The tree I made had some wonkyness for sure. I think as long as my main point with assaults, that they don't really pull their weight until TSGT, is addressed, I'd be happy with a different tree.

FYI for forge, you can also put wraith armor on your shinobi and carry the body straight through walls. I think I went into the building and back out to the evac in one turn.

What you are about to read is an enormous wall of text covering feedback on my first LW2 playthrough regarding everything in the game. Difficulty : Rookie (why rookie you wuss?) I consider myself a very good XCOM player and I knew this wouldn’t be a particular challenge for me. My goal for the firs...

A giant space station gently releases a flashbang down onto your troops. LOL

I disagree with many of OPs sentiments on classes, I think they're more useful than he suggests. One point I strongly disagree on is the idea that long watch is useless for snipers. Long Watch is a god-level power, yeah there isn't synergy with other overwatch perks, but a sniper in an elevated posi...

Yeah I've had this exact thing when pods patrolled through fire and burned one of the members of a pod. Probably belongs in bug reports if it's not there already.

Is it fixed if you turn off action cam? Because I turned it off and I don't think I have this problem.

Just want to say thanks for all the effort.

I've been getting the rulers, they show up every HQ assault. The viper showed up once, got away, came back at full health, was able to kill him second try. HQ assault after that, berserker queen who also escaped. I just wish they showed up a little bit more.

Yes, which they already do.

Same here, would be a good QOL improvement.

I think what he's really saying is not when you break concealment, but when you break concealment AND some pods get activated, in which case, yes they do automatically know where every one of your soldiers are.

Eh I don't know, you don't need to restart your campaign though. That's not going to change anything.

This would be a good QOL mod, but in lieu of that you can always hit the sort button and sort by class to have an easier time counting how many of each class you have.

I'm using, it's working, and my MAX_ANGLE_PENALTY=0.0 is actually equal to 80, so:

MAX_ANGLE_PENALTY=80.0

Maybe this is doing it? Otherwise you're probably editing the wrong ini file. Also an important note, aiming angles does not benefit aliens. :\

A side note to this is that sometimes when text pops up on the left side (i.e. trooper1 has recovered from injuries, Rebel2 has been recruited to the haven in western europe), that text can be blocked by the flags of all the regions and/or missions. I would super appreciate if this text lasted for a...

Yeah, you shouldn't be finding rookie too difficult unless you are doing something wrong.

This page on ufopaedia has something similar in terms of ini edits:

You can also just dig around in that ini file (XComLW_Outposts) and see if you find something that does exactly what you're looking for.

More logical, maybe. But the current system is better gameplay. As other people have stated better than I, it's stacking penalties on top of penalties.

This is some good feedback, I just want to say +1 to the clunky strategic layer, take heed JL. This man hit everything on the head and I like his suggestions to address some of the excessive clicking present in the strategic layer. Other similar feedback from my personal experiences: I agree that ti...

It's this mod:

Code99, You are correct

JLtheking, can you expand on this? I'm at a loss as how to make my own 'mods' that change the LW specific config files and it sounds like that's what you're talking about doing with terms I've never heard of.

Thanks.

Sounds like you should be playing on rookie difficulty.
