I think it's a really good decision and think 1.5 is at a good place to leave it. Looking forward to the game you're working on.

I'll just add that AWC management is atrocious. I shouldn't have to scroll through multiple windows just because my soldier learned a perk, and I want to assign another soldier to keep the train rolling (because when would you ever not?). Currently: Map View The AWC training finished window. Close w...

Removal of all Bradford voiceovers. Popup window at the beginning of each mission being a 1 time thing, rather than every single mission. Commander's Choice in options. Ranger buff to critical chance. Significantly less missions that start in concealment. Pause on Recruit on by default, or made stan...

I agree with you. On paper it sounds like there is such grand variance that adds so much to the game. But when I'm playing the game, what I want to know is the likelihood of my 3-5 damage shot killing a guy with 3 hp. So, functionally, it makes for an incredibly frustrating experience.

LW2 just needs CC in it. It shouldn't be a mod at all. Mods have conflicts at times, or stop getting updated, and many LW2 players just aren't comfortable modding the game beyond installing the expansion. I get the feeling that the vast majority of players are simply making due with what's given to ...

The title really says it all. There's a lot of pointless micro management in the game. One of the most annoying ones is not being able to equip gear, change a PCS, or add weapon attachments to a haven adviser soldier. Sure, it makes sense in the real world that you would recover a soldier before cha...

Maybe Fraxis got all the big guns together to finally fix those LOS bugs as a sort of anniversary gift to all the dedicated fans still playing

I've heard people say this about Assaults, but I haven't personally had much of a problem with it. It's a hard thing to pinpoint why others have this problem, while I don't really have much of an issue with it. It could come down to what support classes you take, how much dodge you stack, how you sc...

I agree with you. I found Rangers to be the weakest class in the game, primarily because aliens in cover are just too hard to hit in LW2. I have not had any problems using Assaults at all. Maybe I'm just use to being cautious when flanking. However, a Ranger's job isn't to flank, it's to shoot, and ...

Doing the Research one makes future research take less time. Not sure by how much. I'm guessing the Engineering does something similar, but I can't tell from getting it, or the description. I heard they are equivalent to getting 1 scientist, but I have no idea if that's true or not. They seriously n...

That's not practical on most missions due to the turn timer and frequent reinforcements after exposure, at least on any difficulty that holds my interest.

I'm in total agreement with you. The stealth mechanic was my least favorite part of Xcom2, and I am a bit disappointed with how much it is emphasized in the mod. I would much rather have 75% of my missions involve traditional combat, rather than sneaking. I also completely agree with you about pods ...

I understand the need to remove flares for drops so that we don't just stand around in overwatch, and it works great when you're not fighting. However, the problem I have with it is specifically when you're already engaged. The game is already incredibly difficult just managing what's already on the...

I think there is an issue here when you carefully set up a line of soldiers, suppress and flash the enemy in front of you, and just randomly get an entire pod flanking every single one of your guys. That's too much bad luck in one turn to overcome, if you're already engaging a pod.

I've noticed there really isn't any incentive to capture ADVENT VIPs. I've been doing it as an exercise, but I think it would be nice to have some benefit for doing so. My first thought would be to give an "interrogate prisoner/vip" research project. The rewards could possibly vary between...
