Yes

you're doing it wrong

is the game heavy time based like xcom?

Why did you say women twice?

not everyone is a scalie, user

Isnt xenonauts 2 out now? I forgot all about it.

>Phoenix Point

Top kek, my friend

And Xcom 3 isn't even announced

The timer mechanic in 2 is MUCH more forgiving than Enemy Unknown.

is xcom 2 actually fun ?

is that /ourguy/ Rippletiddies?

i still prefer playing one long campaign than a couple of shorter ones where i can barely unlock the good stuff

What happened to xcom general?

Ded from the lack of content. It died a good death so it can return well and good when xcom3 drops.
We don't want it to turn into /mbg/ or sc2 now do we?

If I liked final fantasy tactics will I like XCOM 2 or are they not alike at all?

also do I need to play XCOM 1 to play 2 because I won't do that

Did I miss something? When did they say Xcom 3 soon?

Well, FiraXCOM3 will likely just be another turd.
Phoenix Point decided it should become a FiraXCOM clone after trying to be a subpar X-COM clone.

... I am tentatively hopeful for Phoenix Point, as it seems to have taken the few *good* ideas in FiraXCOM, like displaying your soldier's move ranges, and kept some simulationist elements.

>92%
There is your problem: you're not stacking up enough Aim to get 100% against Heavy Cover
And explosives can't miss

It's not, XCOM2 wasn't woke enough so XCOM3 is going to be about the resistance fighting the racist human government for the rights of oppressed aliens

Sure why not.

How is the current state of Xenonauts 2 ? Last time some commented that the devs removed modding.

Xcom 2 was announced june of 2015 and came out 8 months later on February 2016, so it's possible it might come out late 2019/ early 2020.

that new age of wonders is also looking pretty nice.

alright I have an old pirated copy of 2 with long war before it got shafted
is the current version of 2 + expansions better than vanilla + longwar? thinking of buying it on the next sale

but then I do no damage

Xcom 3 better have lamia soldiers

Compared to FFT, XCOM 2 has shallower class customization, but deeper gameplay.

Stuff like angles of attack, line of sight, scouting, etc, all matter. Getting the high ground has a tactical advantage and doesn't just give a flat damage bonus like FFT did (unless you're a sniper who gets bonus damage from being elevated). XCOM is also more difficult than FFT, especially at higher difficulties.

Try it out, you'll probably like it.

Play OpenXcom, its free.

Also, you don't have to play 1 to play 2, though the story from 2 carries on from 1.

Canon XCOM 1 ending is you're a retard and aliens take over the world. Actually beating the game prevents the sequel from happening.

I'd fight for the rights of my viper gf

>miss 80% shots reguarly
>start taking 20% shots

God I want that snek lady to vore me

Will I finally me able to play some true xcom where I'm sending a dozen rookies into the meat grinder to protect my veteran squad?

It's a well known fact the vanilla percentages straight up fucking lie. Get perfect info or whatever the mod is called.

The XCOM General project has been terminated.

this
both long war iterations have been the most engaged ive been with nu com besides my initial playthroughs, they fit my autismo masochism very well and add some needed depth beyond what jake provides
at least with hundreds of mods ive managed to turn my game into some attempt at a lw2 lite but its still unbalanced and sluggish

as for xenonauts 2 last i heard they were going firaxis style with their base management and the like which im not too sure about
phoenix point looks great but a bit unironically soulless and might lean too heavily into the superhero aspect of nu com that im coming to be wary off

nothing to discuss until next backer build

except they're not going to announce a winner for the writing contest for a while because they got so many entries. they must have gotten a shit ton if it's that hard to get through considering the 500 word limit

>is the current version of 2 + expansions better than vanilla + longwar?

most people didn't even like long war 2, so yes.

I kinda doubt it since the games have always been humanity vs. whatever, but I kinda want former enemy aliens as allies. Maybe it will be up to modders.

Attached: 1540933954410.png (441x383, 14K)

The general consensus is that wotc + mods is better than vanilla + lw2, however personally I think they're about even with lw2 having a slight edge due to personal taste. It has a better strategy layer and does a much better job of making you feel like a guerrilla force, however over time you'll come to notice its flaws and confusing opaque mechanics that wont make themselves apparent until youve been fucked in the ass by them 4 failed campaigns over which still wont make much sense, and as the name implies it requires a lot of free time, and the lack of mission variety can become tedious unlike wotc.
I still liked it a lot flaws and all but wotc has so many fucking mods in terms of classes, enemies, strategy and tactics changes that most people rightly feel that is a better experience.

blame Firaxis
they kept silent about WotC for so long the Long War devs went all in with vanilla XCOM 2
hell, at some point i was pretty sure there'd be no expansion
with all the changes it would've been too much work to re-implement it

Only in the brightest timeline do we get an Apocalypse remake

Me too, when it's about magic. Not expecting much from that one.

blame yourself

congratulations on your new fetish

or God.

oh its not new, but i choose not to indulge it

Animals have no God

at least female soldiers would make sense then.

Go away Algus

well considering how soldiers die like, a lot, i think the shallower class options are kinda necessary.

Variety IS the spice of life I suppose.

I loved this guys Dinzy and Blinzy comic or w/e.

Thats gonna be a hard pass from me senpai. Lets just call giant alien crab monsters with human faces where I draw the line.

Damn I want a new one

Fugg it's the giant enemy crab

I just started xcom 2 again and i can't get over how amazing this game is.

no one ACTUALLY ran out of time playing XCOM2 right? I'm pretty sure it's just a meme for shitposting. like 'why can't I beat great jagras'

The strategy part of the game is not difficult, but if you have a hard time with the actual missions this may translate into a much harder strategic game and running out of time

around snakes: put on the brakes

openapoc will be here someday...

For some reason they keep assuming it'll be PS5 and Scarlett despite there being not a fucking word of it in the actual position. It seems to be because of
>Firaxis Games is looking for an exceptionally skilled Senior Visual Effects Artist to help take the team that brought you the XCom series to the next level.
>The next level

I mean I am sure it'll go to consoles too because Xcom2 did but it is strange how much they are fixated on it because

How pozzed is Firaxis?
Can we get aliens that don't look retarded this time?

I didn't realize how lame the starter gear looked until we got the shit from the tactical pack. All the armor sets look way better and I much prefer how the weapons don't look like toys.

XCOM 2 has a really shit atmosphere and is the sole reason why Enemy Within is better.

You're all stupid.
Guerilla warfare fits perfectly. That's exactly how you beat a technologically superior enemy.

I never said guerilla warfare didn't fit, I said the atmosphere of it was shit. They could have done a lot more with the guerilla warfare atmosphere but they didn't, so XCOM 2's atmosphere is half-assed as fuck, and thus not as fun to see in action compared to Enemy Within.

Pink haired women ruin everything they touch

But the Saturday morning cartoon action show was kind of the draw for OG xcom and nu-xcom.
And at the time of release, AAA games were beginning to saturate the market with guerrilla freedom fighters with Homefront the revolution and Farcry4 released around the same time in early 2016. It was part of a very brief trend.

I think it's pretty probable it'll come out in September. They delayed it already, sure, but they're making genuine progress, judging by the backer builds, so I think this will be the last delay. Also, the game will release on Steam, which ought to be much easier to deal with than Xsolla.
