Re: guerrilla ops in 1.3

Here's hoping! Personally I'm wary that the increased pod density (necessary to make stealth harder) will also create higher probabilities of uncontrolled pod activations. For example, let's say that the distance between pods in v1.2 is 30 tiles, which is large enough to sneak through. Let's say tha...

guerrilla ops in 1.3

I've heard that 1.3 aims to change guerrilla ops missions by distributing the enemy forces into smaller pods on the map. The intended effect, I believe, is that full stealth will be difficult to achieve and you'll need to plan on punching your way through a patrol or two. Does anyone have an idea ho...

Re: acid grenade launched from fog of war

Okay, I've got this save to the point where if you simply end the turn, Maria Petrova will take an acid grenade from the fog's edge: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bri3t1ew8x5crq6/save26?dl=0

acid grenade launched from fog of war

I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but I found myself on the receiving end of an acid grenade from inside the fog of war, with no visible enemies. This was an ADVENT Heavy Grenadier in a pod that my sniper had pulled from across the map. The only other times that I've been attacked from the...

smart macrophages on wounded soldier makes soldier disappear

I returned from a mission with a wounded soldier. I tried swapping out his PCS for Smart Macrophages, and was suspicious when he immediately stood up. Turns out he must have left the Avenger and returned to civilian life, because he's no longer on the roster. Smart, indeed. :cry: I was able to repro...

arc blade stun on scamper slows down game and does not persist

I used a Shinobi to ambush an enemy pod with an Arc Blade. When they scampered, one of the Bladestorm actions stunned an enemy. The enemy's movement was interrupted, the game lagged for about 15 seconds, the enemy was marked as "Stunned: 2", the game lagged for another 20 seconds, and then...

This soldier has not yet moved. It's a Defend Haven mission.

Re: squad starts mission with no actions

Same thing happened to a friend under similar circumstances:
  • retaliation mission
  • no bug on first attempt
  • squad unable to move until second turn after a restart
Seems like the "restart mission" function is not resetting properly?

squad starts mission with no actions

I restarted a mission and my squad has no actions. I've tried restarting multiple times, saving and loading, restarting and saving and loading and restarting, etc., but the only thing my squad can do is throw away its first turn and let Advent take a freebie shot at my haven personnel. Who needs hav...

Re: Disabling drone with Trojan Virus perk while under concealment breaks the mission

I've also seen this happen with troopers that walk through fire in the fog and anything else that causes damage without giving Advent a direction where to go. Your repro sounds the most reliable though.

dark event goes active while infiltration underway

While waiting for an infiltration to finish, the Dark Event that it counters went into effect. I would have expected the mission expiration to coincide with the DE activating.

Maybe the mission will still counter it?

Stealth Gameplay: Tweaking the Skill / Luck Balance

Games that focus on stealth usually center around reconnaissance and timing, but LW2 stealth missions feel like a dice roll on patrol patterns pushed forward by an uncompromising mission timer. It's possible that after a hundred hours of gameplay I'd develop an intuitive sense of the AI and find mys...

Re: haven advisor not rescued when bleeding out

I have a hard save for this one, so I reloaded and maneuvered a soldier to carry the bleeding advisor. No change (advisor still abandoned).

haven advisor not rescued when bleeding out

I ended a "Protect the Datatap" mission with my haven advisor bleeding out (2 turns remaining). He was apparently left on site, because he's nowhere to be found in the Avenger roster and the haven has no advisor.
