Re: Least valuable class in 8-man squad?

I like 1 of each class but I think that's cos I'm not terribly good at the game. I recently started a smash and grab squad with 2 sharpshooters, 3 rangers, 1 shinobi and a specialist and I was surprised by how well it works. I've also found that I like technicals for haven liaisons: flamethrower to ...

Re: Quick Question about Corpses

I believe what you're looking for is the "black market usage" mod. It will give you a popup window when you mouse over an item in the black market that shows what that item is used to build. I believe the default setting is to only show items that you are currently allowed to build, given...

Re: Lily Shen and the Trial of Unstaffed Engineers

Yeah, I don't know. I have all of the disable VO mods (except quiet Bradford as, oddly enough, he doesn't bother me... in Xcom2 anyway). But Lily nags me constantly. I'm seriously considering unpacking the game, finding Lily's sound files and just deleting them. I absolutely despise her. She's ALMOS...

Quick Question about Corpses

Hey all,

does anyone know if there is a list of uses for corpses? I find myself wondering which to save and which are safe to sell and was hoping for a reference.

Thanks

Re: Lily Shen and the Trial of Unstaffed Engineers

I want to set Lily Shen on fire. I have 1 unstaffed engineer. There is NOTHING for me to do with him. I'm not about to assign him to a haven because I only have one liberated region and I'm not even sure that one is free of faceless. Every 3rd time I leave the geoscape Shen gives me the LECTURE. &qu...

Re: Shinobi Stab Animation

Gotcha. It makes perfect sense for the gunner-knife. And I do remember seeing the stab being unintended for >Counterstrikes< but I wasn't sure if it was completely unintended for the Shinobi which, in my perhaps not so humble opinion, it should be. The fast, terrifying overhead slash being replaced ...

Re: Painful Skill Tree Changes

Nod nod. I forgot about the +15 aim from Lockdown. I see your points. A large AoE with the ability to crit would be OP. Okay, consider me convinced.

Thanks for the attention, fellas.

Re: Painful Skill Tree Changes

I just ran into another one that I feel I really need to complain about. Danger Zone and Cool Under Pressure are competing skills. The lockdown-AoE suppressor is a grand build but without CUP it feels very weak on a soldier that already feels a little lackluster.

Why bother? What was the point? I don't want to come down on somebody's work but... I'm not a fan. It's just very underwhelming.

Re: New Campaign Crash

Never Mind. I figured it out. If anyone ever ends up here looking into the same problem what happened was I renamed the Long War folder to 01 LW_Overhaul. That seemed to screw everything up. When I created the completely fresh install I did the same thing all over again. Then, upon restarting the ga...

Re: New Campaign Crash

Within the Mods folder, does it matter what the LW_Overhaul folder is named? For instance, if I wanted to control load order, would it matter if I named the folder 01 LW_Overhaul?

Re: New Campaign Crash

Thanks for the reply but I did that already as well. I like my campaign saves to start at 1 so I already copied and pasted all of the old saves into a different folder.

New Campaign Crash

Hey all, so I decided to start a new campaign without a number of mods that I was playing with before and with a few that I'd like to try. I'm not new to modding so I followed a few steps along the way. 1. I deleted my config files (although I kept a backup of XcomInput.ini). 2. I unchecked every mo...

Re: No Reinforcement Farming vs No Experience

I guess the question that interests me is: What's more important? Creating a balanced game for the majority of players who play the game for enjoyment's sake or making it absolutely impossible for the die-hard power gamer to cheese and farm his/her way to victory? Is preventing them from doing what ...

No Reinforcement Farming vs No Experience

I just wanted to pitch in and offer my thoughts on the solution to reinforcement farming coming in 1.5. I agree that overwatch camping an endless series of reinforcements is cheesy and exploitative and it should be discouraged by taking away the reward for doing so. The absolute elimination of exper...

I do, yes. I'm also in the same sitch as the fellow above me. I have excavated everything but have not filled in all the spaces with facilities. If I have any unstaffed engineers I shortly find myself wanting to shoot Lily Shen.

In the face.

I doubt I'll ever get to the point where I'm ready to go to that extreme. If I could find the two specific nag files associated with Lily and remove the nags associated with unstaffed engineers and her telling me I should build more I might just do it. But I like the rest of the game. Bradford hasn'...
