Re: LW Will Not Start After Windows 10 Update
The issue might result from Windows 10 preventing changes in .exe files within Program Files directory (if Steam's game folder is installed there). So if the modded game does not start, I would check if Windows had not restored the original .exe from its 'shadow copy'. The only solution might be mo...

Re: LW Will Not Start After Windows 10 Update
One of the things the mod does on install is directly change the vanilla .exe (so mods work at all). That can trip all kinds of issues that only a clean install can fix. Not sure that's what is going on in your case, though. Thanks for your response. I was hoping that this was a common problem and ...

LW Will Not Start After Windows 10 Update
Hi I've had this same issue happen each time I update Win 10 (I am using the Insiders Program's version of Windows 10 which is updated frequently). After the Windows 10 Update, I cannot open LW and need to validate local cache and re-install LW and all the various mods before I can play again. Is th...

Re: So Johnny and the devs ...
Yes, on occasion I've used some ideas I've seen on here. Nothing so grand as a weapon; more along the lines of "how about making this perk do this." We've also recruited some internal playtesters from these forums and used their ideas liberally. Hi JL From what I have been able to surmise...

Re: XCOM 2 expansion + Long War 2: Nothing to announce
If I remember correctly, it took us months to get Long War EU working with EW -- and in a lot of ways we started from scratch on a technical level. As I recall, these were also 2 separate mods which were not interchangeable -- ie LW for EW was not backwards compatible for EU. In addition, LW for EW...

Re: XCOM 2 expansion + Long War 2: Nothing to announce
I hate to admit it, but I'm starting to feel less optimistic for there being a LW 2 version for WOTC. If 2K commissioned PI to work on LW 2 version of the expansion, this would only be in the hopes of increasing sales of WOTC. To maximize impact, this would ideally be done prior to the launch of the...

YAY! Thx for your prompt response!
So I'll pre-order WOTC immediately and then come back here everyday to see if you guys will announce LW 2 support for the new expansion!

How to Continue LW 2 Campaign After Purchasing WOTC?
Hi Guys Hope that this is the right place to post this -- apologies if it's not. I am currently in the middle of my LW 2 campaign and will not be able to finish it before WOTC comes out. However, if I have already pre-purchased WOTC on Steam, can you give me any advice as to how I may continue my cu...

"Fixing" the Long Watch Perk
Consensus from most LW 2 players is that there is not much love for the Long Watch perk. As I have already posted in the reddit forums, I believe that the Long Watch Perk would be a lot more useful if players were given the option to pick either/or Over Watch (ie non-squad sight) or Long Watch. For ...

Re: Kubikiri Immunity
Playing LW2 v.1.2 and have tried Kubikiri on an Assault vs the General (already damaged) in an HQ mission. It Crit for 17 damage (Scatter Ray) but the General was not killed. Mine was a bit of a hail Mary as I used my AWC Kubikiri Assault with a Command assist to RnG next to the General. It allowed ...

Just a very minor point: I know that JL already said that the name of the soldier class, "Technical Class," was derived from the military's Technical Vehicles, but it doesn't really seem to "roll off the tongue". Even though it is less accurate from a real military perspective, h...

A few of our internal testers stream and/or post to youtube, and are planning some playthroughs of LW2 once it releases. They've also been working on LW2 101-type guides to help people come to grips with the changes. That said, we've also included a fair amount of in-game text via the Commander's Q...

[Suggestion] Buffing Suppression Perk
Suppression, in its current form, in XCOM 2 is a very weak perk. As many have already pointed out, XCOM 2's AI seem to always run Suppression with the resulting shot missing. Given that 2 rounds are required, it is almost always better to Overwatch instead. As you may recall, there was a similar dis...
