Good point, though I remain skeptical.

Nobody is pushing 0% missions. They're deadly with the yellow alert reaction fire.

Kills are now worth 100% of a kill (lol) point and Wet Work doubles that to 2x. Each MissionXP is at a 5.8x multiplier, so a mission with 9 enemies and a squad of 3 would get each squad member 17.4 kills worth of exp base. It's probably worth taking now, at least. Before it was 33% by a second 33%, ...

Now that lower infiltration means higher effective alert/strength levels, it doesn't surprise me that there's crazy-strong boss pods when you under-infiltrate. It's a little rough encountering the first time, but it's easy enough to adapt to in the future.

Last night I had rain starting to pour while on that loading screen. I thought of the dog art thingy (forgot the name for the artsty frame thing) getting ruined by misterious indoor rainining. EDIT: "painting". the word was "painting". I need another coffee. I've only had that h...

That information is accurate.

I know who he is.

HE'S A GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY!

na, Gimrah has turned me off of the mod with his representation of Pavonis. Regardless of the fact he isn't an employee directly, he still represents the company and should be accountable as such. I am not likely to bother with this mod anymore because of him. All he would of had to do to add on to...

OP doesn't seem like a player worth saving. Took the words out of my mouth. Enjoy playing 1.2 or something else, buddy. But take the whiny attitude about balance changes A DAY AFTER THE PATCH RELEASED, BEFORE YOU'VE EVEN ADAPTED TO THEM, elsewhere. People were bitching YESTERDAY, even, about these ...

Fighting 4-unit pods was all you did in 1.2. I've seen far more variety in what I've encountered on ExLight Guerrilla Ops in 1.3 already than I did in 1.2.

Meanwhile, I'm enjoying 1.3 because I didn't enjoy stealthing every mission and bring reasonable squads to every mission I don't intend to stealth through.

Yep, it's just the 1.3 update to LW2. Don't worry, you can fix the perk trees easily enough, process for doing so detailed here:

Sad. It's all about playing faster and with teams, as they like, not as I like. Thanks for your guide, I'll stick to 1.2... Probably till X-Com 3 It's what they think is balanced and provides a fair outcome. If you were doing nothing but stealth missions before and prefer that, more power to you, s...

While 7 strength is relatively high, you actually can't, as far as I know, get the enemy activity in a Headquarters down below Swarming, so don't read into that too much, haha. In 1.3, they now have +s after Swarming to indicate how much worse than just 40 enemies it is. That being said: If you've g...

Sorry, I didn't realize that whining in the most flamboyant way imaginable was allowed within hours of the patch's release. I can guarantee he hasn't even played it yet and he's posting on Reddit to ask about how to roll back to 1.2 and posting here bitching about things he can't even know.

Erm, you mean sword shinobi's are INFINITELY weaker* As in, pointless now... Completely fricken pointless. Dodge reductions in multiple ways decreases their survivability and the complete crap on Reaper makes them worthless. Just ditch Shinobi if you are going 1.2 -> 1.3. Completely ditch sharpshoo...

Yeah, joining the chorus here in thanking you guys for the hard work and patience with us plebians who have been pestering a lot lately as to its release, haha. Fantastic work, as always!

Thank you, Johnny and the Pavonis team!

Yeah, boy am I hoping it doesn't turn out to be a week. I was thinking it was a few days out, max, a few days ago. I'm a terribly lonely and sad person.

Stealth as it currently is in 1.2 is broken because it gives you high rewards for zero gear/soldier investment and low risk. The goal in 1.3 is for stealth to give you medium rewards for medium gear/soldier investment and medium risk. This will inevitably mean making stealth much weaker than it is ...

Ohhh, I know, and I really should. I just get frustrated because it's always new accounts that're pulling this shit as of late. It's hard because the eagerness for 1.3 gets to all of us, but people posting crap threads repeatedly or making dumb posts in legitimately helpful threads, like this one.

At least Xwynns has been railing against those. I imagine we'll be seeing a removal of the turn-0 pod activation near your rebel friends in the intel mini-retals at some point.

Updates are actually really helpful for a lot of us to cope with the waiting. Thanks!

Shut up.

I'm sad to see that 'Destroy the Monument' missions didn't get a mention. Are they still in their never-do-these state, or are they worth doing now? Also, you mentioned Neutralise VIP missions, but didn't talk about suiciding them. With Oscar Mike getting buffed, suicide Assaults/Shinobis will have...
