Re: Drone stun attack duration is too OP

I feel that drones are pretty underpowered tbh. Their aim and damage is very bad. The stun can be annoying but getting stunned is definitely better then getting killed. I already ignore drones most of the time in favor of other enemies. Remember seekers from LW 1?

Re: Aliens getting free shots

I hate the Xcom pod activation mechanic. I played the vanilla with all pods active. And I find your arguments completely invalid. With All pods active much worse stuff would happen. I had Sectoid coming from fog and immediately launching mind control, while being overwatched by his Advent goons. Wit...

Re: What should I do different if Advent strength 3 instead of 2 or 1

Doesn't global Advent strength increase as well ? So in theory by waiting you risk that Advent will get more troops everywhere ?

Re: Need some help with Assault and Ranger classes

The Shinobi are sort of glass cannons. Their offensive capability comes primarily from their sword and the situation often does not allow you to use it effectively without endangering the shinobi. If they get pinned down, there is little what they can do by themselves. This is especially true if you...

Why no tutorial?

Long war makes a habit from disabling the tutorial. I find this sad honestly - both XCOM 1 and 2 had great tutorials. Which other game has tutorial, where all of your squad gets wiped except the last survivor. Sure the tutorial gives some boost to start but nothing really significant. In XCOM 2 the ...

Stun + Mind Control bug

I ve got to appreciate the arc thrower after my rookie got mind controlled. The rookie got Stunned 2 status. Next turn my grenadier showed the Sectoid the light causing the rookie to snap out of control, but getting stuck in stunned status. He could move, but could not do anything else, sadly includ...

Re: Changes to the tactical layer

Hi. I always hated the pod activation mechanic, so I can hardly imagine a game without the All pods active mod. Was this mod amongst the ones you tested for compatibility ? Would you expect that this mod would be actually playable with all the changes to tactical layer? I can hardly imagine winning ...
