Re: Where is all Stun Lancers?

Had something similar happen with me before but with sectoids. Played several supply missions and not one had a sectoid.

Re: xwynns Long War 2 Legend #77 video

Maybe if he had a gunner instead of the sharpshooter for suppression, things may have been slightly better...
One thing is for sure, disco cadey would have lived if a gunner was sent instead :(

Re: xwynns Long War 2 Legend #77 video

I did weep a bit :( So much went wrong in that mission, the Chryssalid activation on the concealed shinobi, and the activation of 3 pods at once. The sharpshooter not having a good place to stand and shoot, bad luck with aims...
It was tragic.

Re: Technical Love

Always? no. But for havens I keep technical, usually I can set ablaze the first squad of a rendezvous. For hacking relays the final pod usually is either going back and forth predictably or at most doing 2 types of moves also predictably, they can be burned (even though it is timed) supply raids of ...

Re: Technical Love

A good game with a technical relies on being able to burn well while concealed. Without that, the flamethrower is not used well(I sometimes use it instead of the main gun because it is guarantied damage on the one target) Burn when concealed ? How on earth do you get close enough to enemies to catc...

Re: noise table and info?

Wow, I didn't know Shaped Charge was so loud. Has anyone tried using a Rookie with one as a $20 map-wide mimic beacon? Lol that's terrible and inhumane :lol: On a serious note though, most missions are not even worth 20 supplies. Also, thanks for the link RXTXK that was the link I had then lost.

noise table and info?

I remember I once found a table showing each weapon and how far its sound travels. I can't seem to find it again. Can anyone provide me with that info?

Also, do grenades from grenade launchers and rockets make sound from the point of exit or do they make the sound from where they end up landing?

prisoner outside cell

Hello, So I got one of the bust prisonners out mission, there were like 4 or 5 prisoners, one of the prisoners was outside his cell near a window. So while I was stealthing my way over to the prisoners, the prisoner outside the cell spots me, he gets active, the enemies for some reason also spot my ...

Re: [Suggestion] Allow changing gear for haven advisers without removing them first

Maybe removing the soldier resets the number of anti faceless intel he gathered? If not then I also support adding this feature.

Re: Snap Shot?

Shinobi and 2 snipers on relay mission, hmm, I've never thought of that. I should try it Snap Shot Snipers are awesome for long-range flanking shots if you use the LW2 Tactical Suppressors mod. Just attach a suppressor to your weapon and take the Phantom perk. You can kill targets from concealment! ...

Re: Thanks for long war 2

It certainly is much more immersive than the base game, you really feel the atmosphere of guerrilla warfare and chaos... The base game neatly gave us one mission at a time, with convenient difficulty. While here you can find easy-ish missions later and hard enemies early... And all the new classes a...

I had the idea of just equipping them with smg and then just send them out on stealth missions as a third wheel just to have them gain experience (since I only need specialist/shinobi on these and yet mission experience gets divided by 3 anyway since it is programmed as the minimum ratio) But unfor...

I know how to mod myself, I am a programmer. But I like to play the same kind of game the community plays, otherwise I feel like I am cheating :mrgreen: Also, giving sharpshooters smg and disabling squadsight at the same time takes more modding skills than I have. Another idea is to allow soldiers n...

smg on sharpshooter please

Hello. I have recently restarted my campaign (again) because of epic failures, and as you all know at the start of the campaign, almost all missions are timed/suitable for stealth missions rendering the usage of sharpshooters almost impossible. In the beginning, sharpshooters have bad aim, we have n...

Re: Thanks for long war 2

Just to clarify, on steam I am now up to 100 hours, the 60 hours are just purely long war 2.

It's mostly just restarting the game, playing veteran and still never managed to liberate one zone, I suck at it lol.
