Re: [Sugestion] Unload all weapon add-ons.

Try verifying in Steam - I had a problem where Perfect Information wasn't working this way until I did that.

Re: Campaign Feedback from Playthrough

i. Solution to this problem: GTS combat tactics purchases that greatly reduce infiltration time for low ranking soldiers. Love this idea! E: Just finished reading the entire post, agree with pretty much everything - especially permanent upgrades to speed up outfitting. Especially the ones which are...

Re: Lost my Campaign - No idea why

While i agree that in general that LW2 currently lacks information on some aspects, most of the information you get from digging inside INIs isn't required to play or enjoy the game. It's only required if you want to min-max your strategy. This is probably a point of dispute for a lot of people. I ...

Re: L/I post-gampaign report + some feedback

Would like to echo your experience generally. I did the same thing but over 4 runs, about 130 hours total (using "bind F slomo 2" "bind G slomo 4" to keep animation speed really high) Run 1: Blind, messed up completely due to haven mechanics, didn't use intel enough, build order ...

Re: Patch 1.2

The thing about the rocket cover destruction is yeah it's great - if you don't roll a scatter. Which is very likely at long range. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_2sRYROt6-5XFWZZAwQ0-laB9mYPW84h8476q3ecoYE/edit?usp=sharing Meanwhile there's the Gunner perk 'Destruction' which I also conside...

Re: Patch 1.2

I'm waiting for 1.2 to come out before I start a new run. I hope there's some serious balance changes in there, because otherwise next run I'm skipping Psi, skipping technicals and making half my team hail of bullets gunners. You mean other than Hail requiring five ammo and Psis being reworked? Tec...

Re: Opinion on Rocketeers

I'm playing on 1.1 and yeah, flamethrowers get blocked by cover all the time. They're useless. All the risk of getting up in the ayys faces without any of the payoff that a 100% to hit, high crit, close encounters assault has. The technical is straddling two completely contradictory roles - they're ...

Re: Opinion on Rocketeers

Replace some of the middle generic perks with a perk which makes flamers entirely ignore cover, and another one where the burn chance becomes guaranteed. Make the rocket perks reduce scatter.

Right now I wish my technicals were grenadiers, they're totally outclassed.

Re: LW2 needs more "middle class" missions

It may also place limits on enemy types . I like this idea in general. It would be cool to be able to buy or scan for pre-mission hints about the types of enemy expected. So all that gear you can buy actually feels relevant. 10 chrysalids on this mission? Bring the anti-melee stuff. 10 MECs? bring ...

Re: LW2 needs more "middle class" missions

That's a cool idea lilyophelia I've come up with another suggestion - add a new class called 'Infiltrator' or 'Spy' or similar. Make their basic skill something like the Tradecraft perk, but where they actually have a negative weight for the mission, enough to bring along their self and, with perks,...

Re: LW2 needs more "middle class" missions

So as we all agree, this is the problem: http://i.imgur.com/eU0OegT.png I think the solution is twofold: 1. Add some mechanic which punishes the 1 man and 2 man squads, ideally by making a tradeoff where more soldiers is better. 2. Rein in the silly hyperbolic rewards of maximum squad size supply ra...

Re: Feedback from my playthroughs

People have been doing those supply raids on Ironman. Watch joinrbs on youtube, he shows us one. I think the problem, as pointed out by others, is that it's all-or-nothing in supply raids, but they're really needed as a source of corpses. Either you can do them and it makes the game easier, or you c...

Re: New and Improved Dark Events Thread

Based on the let´s plays i watch and my own play some people get relative soft dark events and get the missions to counter most of them with plenty of infiltration time. Other People get more unpleasant dark event and don´t find the missions to stop them. There should be a mechanic the even this ou...

Re: Allow Tactical Dark Event to be shutdownable

I'll explain my point super quick: There's a wide distribution in the power level of DEs. Some are tolerable, some are crazy compared to the others. Particularly the bonus HP, bonus defence and Rapid Reinforcement ones I see complained about a lot. Being given a choice as in the base game allowed yo...
