Time to bump the thread. I need 16 names.
Landon Taylor
While I wait for names, let's down this UFO.
Hunter Parker
Godspeed Commander.
Colton Allen
Oh, boy; that was too much power.
Samuel Edwards
Clearly we need a hero to guide us through the darkness after our last crushing defeat.
Todd Howard.
Camden Bell
Butch McClaren
Isaiah Butler
Yea Forums doesn't care about good games anymore. Sorry bro.
Xavier Fisher
Oh hey, it's been a while since I caught one of these.
Culter Dei
Juan Powell
Talking about power, we can now use the 2 plasma rifles we managed to loot before getting wiped out.
Jack Price
Wavy.
Yea Forums has been really fast lately.
Charles Cruz
Lanky Kong
Stack him up with HE
William Rodriguez
MD Geist 2: Death Force
Someone needs to carry out his legacy
Godspeed, Commander
John Morris
Thanks for the morale boost.
Even now, there's still hope for man.
Just in time for a Terror mission...
Blake Anderson
Fodder
Sebastian Moore
Rodd Coward
Thomas Anderson
...Or an alien base creation. That's probably worse.
Camden Richardson
James Rolfe
Carson Peterson
This isn't looking so good.
Asher Myers
>nurgle marines in February
just fuck my shit up
Isaiah Nelson
Time to assault the Battleship as soon as it lands!
Ethan Hernandez
TERROR: HIGH
Andrew Thomas
It was between going against the small ship or the battleship.
Let's choose the battleship. What could go wrong?
Ethan Wright
My god.
Parker Young
As long as you have enough explosives nothing can go wrong
Thomas Cooper
CIA
Isaac Hill
Tito Dickman
Parker Collins
Base soon fellow Commander.
Christopher Sanchez
I'm expecting a shitload of mindrape. Being a battleship, there has to be at least 6 psy-ops in there.
Jack Watson
total squad wipe incoming
Kayden Cox
I say let them come!
"Alien Base" is just another word for "free elerium"
Ian Foster
Off to a good start.
Jack Nelson
Jose Lewis
Sending a whole team of rookies to a battleship might not've been a great idea, after all.
Jacob Gray
After a lot of tries, there's finally someone with enough cojones on the team.
Bentley Rogers
That's less than 16 replies so have Dick Kickem for current or next batch.
Caleb Adams
best rookie ever!
Hudson Cook
Fallout 76
Isaiah Wilson
Yeah. 6 faggots mindraping everyone on sight.
Justin Hill
And now CHEN! is going after us.
F
Landon Morales
EA
Julian Young
please tell us you packed tasers/stun bombs
Thomas Cox
Nice going, CHEN!
Aaron Mitchell
I wasn't expecting anything from this fag.
Lincoln Ortiz
Fortunately, we brough prods, so it's time to sleep, CHEN!
Liam Jenkins
He wasn't supposed to let you down...
Christopher Harris
I forgot that this being a battleship, Cyberdisks have to be all over the place, too.
Connor Reyes
At least we're getting the terrain back. Let's hope they don't mindrape us too hard next turn.
Hudson Hill
Never mind about that.
Tyler Rodriguez
>Cyberdisks
Pff, Sectoids. You got this.
Alexander Peterson
Wew. I don't think we're gonna make it if this shit keeps up. Bunch of slack-jawed faggots around here.
Hunter Smith
>Chen gets possessed by mind control
>Suddently becomes an unstoppable murdering machine
like pottery
Brody James
Keep in mind that those fuckers are allowed to "see" through "diagonal" wall tile connections while your dudes aren't. At least that's how it works in the original.
David Cox
And even less when they keep killing our troops without even getting out of the ship.
Hunter Clark
The fact they keep sniping us even with smoke and no nearby vision is bugging me.
Should we recover our weapons and bail out now, or should we keep pushing our luck further?
Sebastian Martin
>YOU NO MESS WITH LO WANG
get the fuck out
Gavin Jackson
How many soldiers are even under our control at this point?
Owen Miller
Let's try to not kill our dudes in the meantime.
Isaac Turner
Large Leader
Angel Myers
Like... 5.
Everything's under control now. Until we get mindraped next turn, that is.
Cooper Jones
>The fact they keep sniping us even with smoke and no nearby vision is bugging me.
Psionic detection rules in the mod are probably different.
Angel Taylor
Maybe it's time to get out, unless you already killed something like 6 Cyberdisks
Good luck breaching the elevator with 5 rookies
Noah Peterson
There's no mod right now. That's just how bullshit psionics are.
Well, we only had 3 people panic, so I'll take that instead of mind control.
Mason Bailey
What turn is it?
Landon Clark
>There's no mod right now.
Oh, I confused you with another commander, sorry.
>That's just how bullshit psionics are.
And this is why it feels so great to turn the tables later on.
Adam Turner
6.
I'm trying to get all of the sleep people and laser rifles I can back to the Skyranger before bailing out. Good thing nobody's carrying a weapon now.
Chase Wilson
Psionics are gay
Jayden Reyes
Since everyone's getting MCed. the AI knows where your going. Thats how they can constantly MC you. AI always attacks the Tile with MC not the unit.
Nicholas Sanders
Dog Barker
Andrew Ramirez
Say that to my fully crewed Avenger with Psi Amps, not online.
Brayden Adams
whats the point of even playing then? the game is just boring tedium clearing maps with ease waiting for research to finish to go to cydonia.
Jayden Adams
I get access to Cydonia way before getting a full complement of high-end psychos on average, though.
Blake Kelly
Never mind. Rick still had his rifle.
Jack Perry
jesus shit
Noah Jones
And killed 2 of our units, the fucking idiot.
Zachary Barnes
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Jack Hernandez
Stop that madman before it's too late.
Nicholas Diaz
calm down boy, Yea Forums is constantly filled with shitposting, it takes a while for x-com threads to get spotted on the catalog and populated
Luke Edwards
>Commander calls him an useless fag
>He goes on a killing spree
What a fucking edgelord, just kill him
Justin Myers
Uh oh...
Liam Sullivan
It's all ogre now!
Mason Nguyen
ayys have a memory, depending on the ayy type, as soon as you get spotted by a single ayy, they know where you are for a couple of turns, thats why you can keep getting mind raped even if there is nobody spotting you currently, and your own mind controlled units also give them this vision
Zachary Williams
get the fuck out of there
the danger of further losses already outweighed what we could salvage three deaths ago
Ethan Campbell
I ended getting everyone I could back to the Skyranger. Rick is a faggot, so he stays.
Aaron Barnes
I forgot to drop the unconscious bodies into the Skyranger. I think they count as missing in action if you keep then in your backpack. Whoops.
Easton Ortiz
Never mind. They actually survived.
Chase Morris
they got buried under all the crap in the skyranger
Ayden Davis
Fuck that guy
Carter Davis
Jesus Christ, what a bloodbath.
Benjamin Ramirez
Not bad for a first Battleship on a nosave run. Superhuman, right?
Jaxson Cook
>mc'd soldiers earn promotions from killing their own allies
Mason Harris
Reminder that you safely evac them even if they are MC'd, same goes for the green area in the alien base
Jeremiah James
This thread is off to a great start
Michael Collins
Yeah, superhuman ironman, the way it should be played.
We're ready to try our luck once again. That is, if the supply ship doesn't gets the fuck outta there before we get there.
Easton Thompson
They went off, so change of course. We'll board a small ship. We can do that, right?
Parker Cook
>That is, if the supply ship doesn't gets the fuck outta there before we get there.
Normally they do. You only can do a second landing if your second craft was really close to it anyway.
Julian Butler
Easy peasy, what could possibly go wrong
Cooper Collins
>Doubting about our success against a small UFO
Jesus Christ Commander, get it together
Aaron Taylor
Our hero brights the most at night.
Jack Phillips
Uhhh...
Jordan Reed
That's what he gets for not being a Jian
Ryder Flores
We don't need fancy weapons to do the job.
Ayden Howard
That's what he gets for betraying his Jian brothers.
Joshua Williams
Mostly because we don't have any other weapons, though...
Wyatt Brooks
When in doubt chuck grenades
Jace Bailey
Serves him right for making waves
Easton Thompson
HE is always a good idea
Eli Ross
But even with puny pistols this unidentified gentleman got the kill.
Adrian Diaz
your hands are the only weapons ya need!
Parker Phillips
Kayden Sanders
They're just lining up. They really want to get executed.
Gabriel Howard
CAN'T STOP
Hudson Thompson
Good ol' Rodd has what they need.
Henry Lewis
>they actually trusted Rodd and came out
Andrew Rogers
That man seems to know what everybody wants, perhaps we should listen to him more often
Juan Adams
They didn't preorder Skyrim 2
So I preordered their coffins.
Zachary James
Man, that Rodd guy is savage as hell. I wonder what's up with him.
Gabriel Edwards
>I wonder what's up with him.
255 Psi Strength.
Xavier Gomez
Leo Long
PROMOTIONS
Carson Rodriguez
Only one down. We're getting better!
Liam Foster
Sweet victory!
Robert Hall
We managed to get one of the supply ships while it was landed. So let's hope we can prod a psionic little fella, or at least an engineer.
Colton Reed
Ethan Murphy
I'm rooting for Rodd
Michael Williams
>We managed to get one of the supply ships while it was landed.
Sectoid, right? That means at least 4 Cyberdisks. Have fun.
Hunter Jenkins
A sniper in the dark is getting everything that gets out of the Skyranger.
Luis Hernandez
And we still can't see it.
Ethan Robinson
ABORT
Brody Powell
Fuck, I was hoping that Geist would carry the mission
Jacob Brooks
Yeah, eat shit, you fucking cocksucker.
Easton Hill
Yeah, pretty much what he said. The greys can have their base, it's not worth the losses at this point. You'll gimp yourself to all hells i you continue.
Henry Howard
Fugg, disregard, I mixed them up with Terror Ships.
Zachary Ward
Gabriel Hughes
HE'S GONNA TAKE YOU TO THE PAST
Noah Walker
We only lost 2 rookies. It's not a big deal.
Nobody expects anything from cannon fodder. That's why he's on a mission to disprove us.
Owen Torres
He doesn't have a cannon, tho.
Aaron Gutierrez
God, that fucking killcount.
Jayden Rodriguez
You enjoying the massive amounts of Fatal Wounds? The good news is that if you have the TU to treat them, they'll regain most of the health. If your medic gets fucked you're doomed, though.
Carson Lopez
He will have one soon
a plasma cannon round right in the chest
Levi White
>Not namefagging as 40Kommander
Nathan Sullivan
Oh shit he died.
Well, this campaign hasn't had the first MD Geist, so I suppose there's the next batch of rookies.
Hudson Howard
I'd do it but I was 40kCommander the first time I ran so I'm sticking with it, I guess.
I should figure out how to tripfag, probably.
Easton Anderson
>second mission on my first playthrough of wotc
>priest spawns
>it randomly refuses to die to rediculous overkill and instead goes into stasis or some shit instead
What the absolute fuck.
Josiah Anderson
Wavy still lives. I wonder what her stats are.
Dominic Myers
We're getting closer to the ship, but also the danger gets closer.
Tyler Stewart
I jinxed it. I swear I did.
Jacob Jenkins
OH NO NO NO NO
Luke Young
Ya jinxed it.
Caleb Campbell
All in all, we can't just change our fate.
Kevin Ross
>>second mission on my first playthrough of wotc
Getting revenge for 4th and 5th editions on them?
Colton White
It gets even better in the lategame: the high level ones have higher chances to go into stasis when they're about to die
I think that stunning them prevents the statis
Gabriel Turner
We're on a 2:1 ratio on kills at the moment. At least they still don't begin with the mindrape.
Chase James
NOOOOOOOOOOOO
Mason Davis
Oh that’s good to know, at least there’s a counter.
What do you mean?
Lucas Phillips
we have to pray for more missions with floaters instead
Ian Hernandez
>mindrape
Sectoid supply ships have at most 2 Leaders.
>What do you mean?
Lincoln Cruz
OH NO
Cameron Rodriguez
>user...
>Please buy my g...
Elijah Anderson
guess the ayys really didn't want to play skyrim
Daniel Reyes
Commander... I don't feel so good.....
Justin Brooks
We killed the ayy... but at what cost...
Tyler Clark
If only you had bought his game, he might have been strong enough to survive
Nathaniel Butler
They actually tried to mindbreak him before, so I unequipped him.
Tyler Sullivan
[Muffled Sweet Little Lies in the distance]
Jack James
James actually killed one ayy on a barrage of shots, but unfortunately the second one got him.
Where did the hair go?
Eli Edwards
AAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Ryder Cook
At least we still have the handsome and dashing Todd Howard to defend us.
Zachary Lopez
That stun is piling up.
Justin Bennett
FUUUUUUUUUUCK
Christopher Foster
See that UFO? You can enter on it
Thomas Turner
Uh oh...
Cameron Nelson
Jinxed it!
Angel Watson
Todd doesn't really likes minorities...
Juan Clark
EITHER YOU BUY MY FUCKING GAME
OR A ONE WAY TICKET TO HELL
Landon Ward
JUST FUCKING BUY IT
Nathaniel Taylor
WHY DIDN'T YOU BUY IT
Ayden Anderson
YOU DIDN'T BUY MY GAME! IM TAKING YOU ALL DOWN WITH ME FUCKERS
Daniel Young
You oughtta know by now, user... I'm through with the games.
Daniel Jackson
Minorities don't buy games, so they get the good old rod from todd
Justin Ward
>Not equipping all the soldiers with Skyrim™ before starting the mission
It's all your fault
Zachary Carter
HE HAS NO STYLE
HE HAS NO GRACE
THIS KONG'S GONNA FUCK YOUR FACE
Jason Cruz
Henry Flores
Do you have enough flares?
Colton Baker
>flares
That's not how you spell "Incendiary Rockets"
Evan Thomas
He got panicked and rushed right into the ayy's face.
RIP in pieces.
Ayden Collins
Don't they destroy equipment, though? There must be a reason why I stopped using them almost 25 years ago.
Eli Jackson
Guess there's not gonna be a Skyrim 2, after all...
William Reyes
This one's for Todd, you cockmongler.
Andrew Jackson
This death is only temporary. So long as there are copies of Skyrim unsold, Todd cannot truly die
Charles Anderson
No
The main downside is that rockets can cause friendly fire, unlike flares
Charles Hughes
Now we need to finish off gaben as well.
Jace Green
The elerium is safe. That's one good thing, and probably the only one.
Easton Long
You didn't use them because they're crap for actually killing things in a reasonable amount of time, especially compared to Heavy Rockets.
Brody Jones
Only 4 more units alive, and one of them is psibait, while the other one is on the Skyranger, ready to get the fuck outta there.
Valhalla awaits.
Julian Mitchell
>For now
Lincoln Ramirez
HE HAS NO STYLE
HE HAS NO FACE
THIS KONG'S IN A BETTER PLACE
Matthew Hernandez
They stand no chance
Gavin Sullivan
You can do it Commander! I belive in you!
Charles Taylor
Wew; no more psibait, either. It's do or die with only 2 combat capable units now.
Samuel Collins
Is this the longest Chen has been alive yet?
Jack Rodriguez
Now, the question is: do we kill everything or do we prod everything?
Ryder Smith
>You didn't use them because they're crap for actually killing things in a reasonable amount of time
Without exploiting bugs.
Christian Sullivan
Xavier Phillips
KILL!
KILL!
KILL!
Tyler Jones
Every time, without fail.
Parker Sanders
Any idea how many Ayys are left?
Easton Lopez
Oh yeah.
I forgot about that.
If you exploit it, fire murders everything and becomes one of the best anti-sectopod weapons in the game.
Benjamin Taylor
One of these runs Chen, I will keep you alive.
Josiah Reyes
Prodding is too risky in your situation. You might get a reaction to point blank auto from the laser rifle after all three shots were fired. But you might get a reaction to any stun prod hit.
Mason Thomas
>everything
Hudson Thompson
Like 4 more. We've probably killed the psi-able one now, probably.
We killed that one motherfucker because it was too risky to go in there and fail the prodding.
And now we killed this one because it's kill or be killed. To baad that Maki's probably gonna faint next turn.
Landon Ward
It just keeps happening ;_;
Jordan Baker
Silacoids are borderline non-threats as long as you keep your distance.
Jason Murphy
Pull her out
Luis Campbell
She's too deep into the UFO now. What has to happen will happen.
This ayy din't fly so good.
Hunter Barnes
Sebastian Sanders
unless you go into smoke she shouldn't, you only get stun damage when you are in smoke or hit by a stun weapon
unless she is bleeding then yes she will probably faint in a couple of turns
Ryan Howard
Watch out! Once you reach the top floor the leader and his buddies will come to you!
Get ready
Eli Harris
She got hit by an ayy and has 2 wounds on her.
Wounds end putting you into stun threshold and everything goes to shit after that.
Only CIA up to either kill or capture the last ayy alive.
Bentley Rogers
He's got a flight plan.
Parker Anderson
Do we go for the silent takedown or do we kill it?
Jeremiah Collins
Daniel Campbell
KILL ALL AYYS
Aiden Lee
Shoot him and trow his body out of the Skyranger
Connor Gonzalez
VENGEANCE
Jack Smith
The people have spoken.
We don't get to bring friends.
Brandon James
Is it over?
Isaac Barnes
Goddamit; we were so close, but somehow, the last psy-ops saw us and now they're getting into CIA's mind.
We're at turn 19. Do we risk the turn 20 psionics strats, or do we bail out now that we can?
Landon Hughes
if its just 1 psy wait until CIA goes down and then bail, he might make it
Ethan Wilson
Do we even have anything to lose at this point beside the 500'000$ Skyranger?
Owen Moore
I mean you may as well go all or nothing now. I don't see how you can make it back to the skyranger in one turn before you get ayy raped.
Anthony Lewis
A captain for one
Aiden Ross
We're so fucking close. That's the commander, and it's actually the last ayy. If only CIA didn't panicked, we could've probed his fucking ass.
We're already at turn 20. Do we bail out or do we pray for a miracle and skip the turn, hope the ayy doesn't kill CIA and then prod it?
Aiden Thomas
Just blam it
Jacob Hall
>You are a big secotoid...
keep fighting OP
David Young
>prod it
This is why you carry grenades.
He lost the rifle due to berserking, it's right there in the pic.
Josiah Watson
Wew. The miracle never happened.
It's time to go hope once again...
Charles Davis
The dream is dead.
Parker Thomas
nooooo
Jeremiah James
And there it goes. Another wipeout.
Samuel Hughes
Brayden Gutierrez
I'm getting my ass ravaged in here. That's what psionics do to you.
Charles Davis
With an alien base and consistently negative ratings you might not survive past the next month.
Sebastian Martin
And now this. We only have like... 5 more rookies to spare. Let's try our best!
Wyatt Evans
So what happened to that playthrough with XCOM Files and the other one with Space Pirates?
Jose Morgan
How the hell did you get ravaged by psionics so fucking fast
Christian Edwards
They will be avenged
The sectoids sent us to hell, but we're going to get even deeper
time to assault the alien base
Matthew Wilson
OH BOY HERE WE GO
Gabriel Ortiz
I-I don't think we're gonna make it
Parker Morgan
Every mission that fate gave us during this run was psionics. And we were unable to get laser guns before terror missions started, so we were kinda fucked from the start.
What's the worst that can happen?
Kevin Reyes
>xcom closure
Julian Turner
Dual-wield 10 rocket launchers and hope for the best
Jackson Moore
Damn it 2nd. God speed.
Parker Martin
>What's the worst that can happen?
Just boring old chryssalids. Without ironman you would had a shot at invisible chryssalids.
Anthony Rogers
I don't think we're winning this one.
Blake Barnes
SCORCHED EARTH
Julian Lee
We stopped playing X-Files after destroying the alien base, mostly because it was an endless grind of pointless missions, I think it was the same for PirateZ
I still have the save tho
Parker Hernandez
just evac

That's a shame for the two to end on a low note, but thanks for the update
Adrian Hernandez

Andrew Sanders

Send spare jets on patrols over those three from time to time, by the way. If you have spares.
Jace Cruz

Time to train our troops. It's a small ship, so what could ever go wrong?
Colton Gomez
Apparently a lot, considering the way things have been going
Ian Gray
Wew. Fallout 76 was almost dead on arrival
Jordan Clark
>It's a small ship, so what could ever go wrong?
Mutons. Probably snakes or sectoids, though.

Daniel Baker
Oliver Parker
I just realized why you are getting owned this fucking much by sectoid leaders while I wasn't last time I played. Tanks, mate. The "but they don't gain XP" argument doesn't hold in the slightest when you get 9 out of 10 wipes again and again. Same with the costs.
Cameron Torres
Too bad it was called Chen. It was inevitable.
Joshua Reed
Wow maybe you wanna not blow up barns and maybe try to tactically advance around it instead of blowing it to shit and wrecking everything making all that smoke and breaking barns
Jace Lewis
>not blowing barns up
What are you ? A civvie ?
Liam Morales
just realized I haven't bought a single tank since we started.
You're onto something, m8.
Time to chew ass.
Oliver Perry
Let's play people don't get tanks because it takes up four potential spots for naming rookies, not to mention a good chunk of the fun is watching the downward spiral of doom.
Tyler Myers

Cooper Bell
>not nuking barns on sight
OP's only error was not lobbing enough HE to finish the job.
Connor Adams

The only way to kill the swarms is with explosives or fire, if I remember right. Don't be afraid to pull the fuck out, a lot of shit is way out of your league at the start, especially when you're stuck with just four agents.

Eh, winning x-com let's play usually turn out to be rather boring since it's rather repetitious and super-cautious.

Ayden Lopez
Plague marines fuck you up. You really have to bring more than one medic when you're up against them. The good news is that since they deal a disproportionate amount of wounds compared to the actual damage dealt, you can pretty much completely heal a plague bolt shot if you attend to it quickly.
Mason Adams
Yes. The fire rises.

Did you remembered to build an Alien Containement this time, Commander?
Bentley Kelly
Yes, I did.
Which reminds me, I have to play cave explorer with a navigator we apparently captured earlier.
Oliver Powell
I made a Duke Nukem in my xcom2 playthrough and he was unironically my mvp, had the voice pack and everything
Andrew Foster
But first, another crash.
Cooper Cox
What are the chances of getting them outside of a barn?
I don't care, I'll just take it.
Noah Campbell
Same here
Also Jake Solomon was my worst soldier ever and ruined my LW2 campaign
Adrian Price
...Or that I wanted, but this idiot can't aim straight.
Gabriel Gomez
Small?
Jordan Harris
This is what happens when you don't use rockets and high-ex.
Adrian Allen
But good old Barkley carrying the game right now.
Alexander Wright
>not giving him a ton of pre-primed explosives and going for the big slams
Isaiah Brooks
Dangit, just got here.
So who else died tonight?
Josiah Evans
everyone
William Morgan
That's a given. But I want specific names so I know just how angry I should be.
Benjamin Edwards
There was a cheeky one outside of the UFO.
Jaxson Scott
Bane.
Landon Smith
Pfft.
Did he also get himself killed?
Gabriel Reyes
The Chaos Dunk is too dangerous to perform outide of terror missions.
The last one was obviously on a goddamned barn.
Isaiah Clark
It was easy exp.
Nolan Long
Chen died like 3 times
Lincoln Allen
Not much in the way of loot, though.
Asher Smith
Thank goodness cats have 9 lives
Mason Gomez
Commander is Commander
Ryan Cook
No, plasma indigestion.
>123 rating
Things are looking up.
Angel Roberts
just as planned
Andrew Harris
He is a double commander.
Ryan Peterson
Results are in. Let's check them out.
Brody Collins
I meant if 2ndCommander got himself killed, which he clearly didn't. ()
BTW, how does score and rating affect funding?
Jaxon Torres
AYY
Christian Lopez
Don't need to screenshot which interrogation got which profiles. You just need to tell us in the screenshot of the profile you got.
Nolan Collins
Fucking ayys and their infiltration plans.
Juan Rodriguez
So how come everyone is promoting so goddamn fast? Is it a multiplier linked to the difficulty?
Jayden Taylor
promotions are linked to total number of soldiers and kills/score
Isaac Lewis
Promotions are tied to the numer of soldiers in the barracks: more soldiers require more officers
Connor Perry
It's linked to the amount of soldiers you have employed.
Landon Peterson
So, I could just use the same team over again, and just stuff the barracks with like three dozen nobodies, and my team would promote faster?
Henry Johnson
I just wanted to show people what you need to probe in order to get the Hyper-Wave Decoder research, because that shit is whack as heck and we needed it a month before this.
It has to do with how many people do you have at your disposal, and how many of them are alive at the end of a mission.
Shit, and I thought this would be a quiet month. Well, let's get our weapons prepared, stick with our prods and hope we don't get mindraped too badly.
Carson Roberts
yes, but really you would want to bring s low amount of higher ranking dudes since officers dying have a larger affect on morale than a rookie/squaddie.
Isaiah Hall
>BTW, how does score and rating affect funding?
Rating is formed based on score, it's just a textual interpretation.
Funding? Short version: don't let ayys fuck with a country and they'll be happy.
Ethan Flores
So in your next batch of cannon fodder, can you tell us what their gender ratio is?
Julian Walker
It's time to slam jam.
Luke Long
Don't forget grenades and light sources!
Carson Mitchell
>Cape Town
Dude White Genocide is real lmao
Thomas Price
Yes, but a better rank does not affect stats: to increase them the soldiers have to do something useful like hitting an alien
A squaddie that goes on the frontline on every mission will be far better than an armchair commander
William Russell
Welp; there goes my tank. Should've used 4 rookies instead.
Jose Bell
THREAD THEME
youtube.com
Christian Gray
Huh. So ranks only affect morale?
Jason Hill
HAAH
WAAW
Nolan Reyes
This game really know what I'm feeling.
Bentley Walker
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
EVERYONE IS GOING HOME IN A BODY BAG
Ryder Rodriguez
lmao how is that a problem? just hot potato an HE or 2 over
Eli Myers
RIP. And yeah, that's the only thing that can this easily wreck a tank at this stage. Sectoid leaders don't go to terror sites IIRC.
Easton Campbell
TIME TO USE ALL THE EXPLOSIVES!
Brandon Ortiz
Cooper Fisher
>rookie learns about reaction fire to thrown objects
Justin Ross
And you know what's the best part? There's at least 2 more somewhere.
Jack Hughes
Of course, rank it's just a badge that makes you more confident at most, it does not improve your accuracy, otherwise we would have an army made only of 10-stars generals
Colton Reyes
There were actually 5.
Barkley had to unleash the Chaos Dunk. There was no other option.
Nolan Taylor
The ayys can't reaction fire you if they're dead
or if you cover your soldiers with smoke
Jonathan Morris
I sure hope I don't casually miss and hit a gas pump.
Owen Wood
I sure hope you realize that there's no downsides for doing that, and you're probably better off just autoshotting to guarantee that happens.
Lucas Edwards
VIGILO CONFIDO!
Joseph Hernandez
WHY DIDN'T YOU BRING MORE HEAVY ROCKETS
Evan Adams
I don't know why I was expecting a bigass explosion.
Dominic Hall
Yeah, gas stations are a bit disappointing.
Nolan Cooper
The nerve on this perverted midgets. And in the middle of the day.
Kayden Parker
Speaking of which, did someone demand the elephant in the room to show back up yet?
Daniel Morgan
After a bullet hell-tier volley of shots, we finally got that degenerate down.
William Brooks
>no downsides
As long as explosion strength is at least 20 it's enough to set off an alien grenade.
Chase Gonzalez
Huh. Didn't know that. I thought equipment destruction couldn't happen until Enemy Unknown.
Liam Foster
Kevin Perez
There were 6 Cyberdisks in that small place. What the fuck.
Parker Ward
>Short version: don't let ayys fuck with a country and they'll be happy.
Does letting civilian casualties in terror missions rack up too high affect it?
Jackson Bailey
equipment and corpse destruction is very real in UFO and TFTD. However fire does not destroy equipment or corpses so in mods with flamethrowers there is no penalty to completely setting the interior of UFOs and barns on fire
Carson Walker
Another alien died with the explosion of that Cyberdisk, lol.
Jace Martinez
But he's playing unmodded UFO: Enemy Unknown. Are are you talking about that gay ass casualized reboot? They mostly took things out there, not added.
Nathan Murphy
I honestly don't care what they took out. I'm just gonna savestate my way to a cheap victory no matter what Xcom I play.
Matthew Clark
Not to my knowledge. As long as your rating is acceptable and you won funding won't go down.
Brayden Ortiz
BOOM SHAKALAKA
Jackson Powell
The 3-pointer Sniper does it again!
Leo Perez
I'd savestate my life to a cheap victory if I could.
Mason Phillips
Now that you're using plasma don't forget to unload partially used mags at the end.
Alexander Nguyen
Why are you using Plasma Rifles? I thought Heavy Plasma was OP enough to invalidate every other weapon in the game.
Colton Evans
It finally payback time!
Evan Jenkins
They barely discount you points from civilian's deaths. If you win, you can make those points back. Also, you don't have to babysit them or worry about killing them with a grenade.
THIS IS OUR VENGEANCE, MOTHERFUCKERS
Cameron Morales
Not vengeance enough. That's a medic, not a Leader.
BTW, is there any point to medic enemies that's unique from the others? Are they just slightly weaker soldiers with no special interrogation features?
Sebastian Scott
Because I don't have any Heavy Plasma yet.
Barkley carved his way through a supermarket into an ayy's skull.
This man's a beast.
Landon Gonzalez
considering that they usually carry non-lethal weapons instead of plasmas, yes
David Sanchez
Then why did you rush Plasma Rifles instead?
Julian Wilson
Oh shit! An intact civilian! It would be a such shame if something happened to it.
Adam Stewart
because plasma is still plasma and rushing heavy plasma is for faggots.
Nathaniel Allen
It's what Guavamoment did, and I thought he's supposed to be the best Xcom player ever.
Jason Ramirez
Because that's what I had at the moment. Better than laser pistols and I had no money to make laser rifles.
I wonder if I can do the William Tell trick and avoid hitting the woman.
Isaac Thompson
I'm not that guava guy, dood. Just a regular guy on Yea Forums playing an old-ass videogame for the sake of having fun. Of course I'm not playing optimally.
Aw, shucks.
Jonathan Wright
Do it faggot
Remember to crouch first
Pfft
Isaac Long
Ran had to make the shot to avoid killing more civilians than needed.
Gabriel Anderson
>avoid hitting the woman
The penalty for killing a civilian is lower than letting it be killed by the greys.
Elijah Jenkins
That's not true, though.
Ethan Williams
>Cirno, don't shoot that civilian
>Ends up not shooting at all
Dumb baka!
Jason Ross
who cares about some e-celeb? Ultimately it's not like you need plasma or psi, I've won games on veteran sticking with lasers and HE
Noah Taylor
Motherfuckers still had some fight in them. I was about to round this up nicely and then this faggot showed up.
Luke Nguyen
Well, what do you know. I remembered that wrong.
Daniel Murphy
At least we can safely prod this motherfucker once we find it.
Connor Peterson
It is
>Civilian killed by X-COM :-50
>Civilian killed by Aliens: -30
Jaxson Cook
>save a few civilians
>still get POOR!
only real complaint I have about the old xcoms, there is literally nothing you can do.
Ryder Powell
>Veteran
thats not something you should be boasting about, anything that isn't superhuman is a joke
Noah Lee
That's the opposite of "lower".
Kevin Miller
>don't let your soldiers get killed
>suddenly even if all the civilians die at your hands you get an OK rating anyway
it's not that hard, just don't get fucked and they will always end in your favor
Nicholas Ortiz
Oh wait, he said that X-Com killing civs gives you a better score, my bad
Eli Harris
Let's kill any ayy with a weapon, and then prod those who are unarmed, to see whos the leader.
Jacob Lewis
Stun rod civvies so the ayys don't shoot them.
Of course, that means the ayys will shoot at your dudes instead, so it's of questionable benefit. Still nice for secured areas to make sure they don't wander off.
Mason Foster
Those 4 or 5 cyberdisks dying in a single round must have torn their morale to shreds.
Owen Peterson
There's one. I wish I had the Mind Probe.
Easton Hughes
That sounds guaranteed to end up in failure. Panicking units don't automatically drop their weapons.
William Scott
you could instead anally probe him, with hot lead
Parker Murphy
I either get near them and prod them both, risking some mindrape attacks, or I risk it and kill one, then prod the other. Decisions, decisions...
Noah Ross
Prod them both.
Isaiah Clark
can you fuck them if they've been stunned
Ryan Rogers
Prod with the prod
Evan Ramirez
Get them while things are going smoothly, you might end up regretting not capturing a leader later
Robert Adams
>mindrape
Put your weapon in the backpack or drop it at the end of turn.
Lucas Hall
PROD
WITH
THE
PROD
Justin Phillips
STICK WITH THE PROD
Eli Williams
This might bite me in the end.
Cameron Cooper
Prod him too
Aaron James
Grayson Ward
We coll. We got them all, but one.
Christian Barnes
Stun the civilian. I don't think you're penalized for unconscious civilians...are you?
Ethan Adams
Of course, the last one is the fucking Leader.
Well, a non lethal takedown is always the most silent takedown. Time to prod.
Juan Sanchez
Now eject all plasma rifle cartridges into the inventory.
Ethan Evans
Unload mags from plasma rifles!
