Oh God! this "hardcore" community is impossible to please, ... stop trying to kill our campaigns whit some arbitrary doom clock and instead try balance the missions so we dont have to skip most of them due to low infiltration or completely useless risk/reward ratio. As far as I know, if y...

Oh God! this "hardcore" community is impossible to please, i dont see anyone complaining about how long war 1 made the game impossible to lose via doom timer(if you lose a campaign there you lose long before the aliens control every single region in the world), long war should go back to i...

I prefer the new fatigue mechanic over the infiltration for 3 reasons: 1. Its way more intuitive. 2. It alleviates somewhat the tedium of gear micromanaging. 3. Te most important point is how it interacts whit will and finally makes will a real stat in this game, now the extra will pcs can be used o...

Medics play a larger role if the "red fog" option is used. Granted may not heal completely, but even 4-10 HP's restored makes troops more effective for the rest of the mission wrt aim, mobility, etc. and also helps to increase chances of surviving the rest of the mission. I always bring a...

I am in the late game right now, and I am doing nothing but troop columns/supply raids, smash and grab, counter dark event missions and the odd intel granting mission to boost more troop/supply missions, all the corpse grating missions are saturated whit basic mutton,snake,mec and troop corpses, whi...

Yes they can, and they last about 7 days in my experience, no console command for such a thing.

Troop colums reduce the strength in the region by one point wen completed, are both easier to do and detect than supply raids, and they are transferring legions within the region and you happened to find a weak spot in this operation. Think about like this: supply raids are moving strength between c...

I have been using kubikiri on both a sniper and a shadowstrike shinobi ( via awc) very effectively, but I just had it fail to kill on a crit against a sectopod, I had killed several others whit kubikiri before, but this one I happened to haywire stun first, so i guess stunned units for some reason d...

This bug is also a huge part of what is making psi soldiers very weak, the enemies worth of using domination on are usually the ones you want the corpse of, and they is nothing worse than using insanity schism to kill a very low hp enemies, only for you to mind control,kill and lose its corpse

They work vs andromedon so long as you put the shinobi right next to him, so they should also work vs faceless as long as they dont melee you from range 2.


Never worked vs chryssalids for me, witch is a damn shame.

Sparks are worse the higher the difficulty, they can take like 3 hits before dying in legendary, not to mention the fact that half the enemies also have shredder, in my current legendary campaign every single other class would be better than a spark, they cost to much infiltration for what they brin...

Same whit me LordYanaek, I guess people either dont reach the end game that much or win long before muton elite autopsy, because this is a rather silly bug.

Whoa. I would love to know more about what actually happens when you successfully skulljack an advent soldier but the soldier remains alive afterwards. Do you still get the hacking UI? The ui, the reward, he takes 20 flat damage ignoring armor, and them lies on the floor as if playing dead, I never...

The skulljack skill on hit in doing only 20 damage to advent soldiers, witch in lategame on legend is not a insta kill on the elite of the elite soldiers, intended behavior or bug?

Note: Implacable is in the Ranger's tree by default ; this isn't even a weird edge-case with AWC abilities. If a unit (say, a Ranger) with Implacable scores a kill with their first Light 'Em Up shot, they lose their ability to do literally anything but move with their second action. No reloading (i...

Lead by example is the worst perk in the game by far, to make itself do something you need to train it on someone whit good stats and have him lead a squad whit bad stats to gain HALF the difference...like wow, its not like you do your whit your soldiers and build the ones whit good aim to be shoote...

I had mine instant trooper fail to trigger at 21 corpses after a render elirium core research, but trigger at 25 corpses after psy research.

I just got a sniper whose 2 offence awc skill is grazing fire, the 2 defensive skill is cool under pressure and the third defensive is rapid reaction, long watch best perk!
