You are very clear. I for one miss a lot the inventory system of the original Xcom (1994). Back then I could bring two carriers who had nothing but rockets, blaster bombs and grenades on them, plus possibly a pistol for self defense. They would find a good enough position safe from enemy fire and p...

Keep in mind that both Xcom 1 and Xcom 2 do not have dynamic inventories. You can not simply remove an item and it will magically vanish, along with its effects. At the beginning of the mission there is a check for utility items and armor and how they affect your stats. Once that has been calculate...

No - once you're on the mission your mobility is set, whether you use your items or not. I was quite sure of the opposite. Wouldn't it be more reasonable? If I have an item with me which causes a weight increase thus decreasing my mobility; If I throw that item away, my mobility won't be affected b...

Simple question. Every utility is a -1. So if I have a medikit or a grenade, and I use it, will that -1 mobility vanish ?

Added my brand new Xcom 'In-Sane'

Assuming there is no typo in your post, it sounds like it's working exactly as intented. You're not supposed to be able to use Full Override more than once per mission. If you hack via full override and you fail your hack, it goes on cooldown and you can try again later. What mashing escape during ...

Yep, exactly (and I do it too). I never noticed about the cooldown originally, but we had internal testers claiming that these skills never had cooldowns or always did, and it turned out to be related to who was mashing ESC and who wasn't. It's on my list to fix for 1.5. I think that pressing Esc i...

Those are some cool looking soldiers. I would say my favourite looks would be Deadsec and Mistress. The customation is one of my favourite parts of the game. I have over 100 soldiers in my pool. Many thx ^^ Deadsec is probably the best face concept! At the beginning I had no idea of what to do with...

First of all, let me warn you that what you're about to see, has been directly stolen from Advent's Archives. So reading these dossiers might arouse SUSPECTS around your identity, and I take NO responsability for this. ( :mrgreen: - L e L - :mrgreen: ) Basically I'm just going to show you my Xcoms a...

1) I've just unlocked the t3 stunner (the one requiring Guardian corpse) and its animation is bugged, the soldier doesn't hold the stunner and there's no electric discharge.
2) Sometimes it is possible to destroy the alien device in haven defense missions with just one shot

It's weird to me that shooting a flame grenade on a target means 100% chance of that target having burn effect, then why the flamer shouldn't be the same? It's a matter of balance. Fire grenades need research and PG project, are in limited number and have a very short AoE (1 single tile without vol...

DON'T READ THE TOP PART ITS DUMB READ THE BOTTOM. So hi i love long war 2 and yes i know about the playable aliens mod. But what i mean as "defecting aliens" is well rouge aliens that join xcom so basically what i am asking you LW2 devs is maybe make a much more less buggy (no offense pla...

guys I'm sorry, what's TFTD ?
First time I read of this, do we know something concrete about it ?

1) Start XCOM2 with -usexwynnsmode option :lol: In case it's not obvious it was a joke. As others said it's an RNG roll. The flamer will always burn (damage with fire) the enemy but not always set them on fire . If it's the first time you see it and you're already at EXO armor you're quite lucky as...

I managed to get the scimitar as sword obtainable by archon by editing the inis so problem solved

hi guys as title I noticed 3 things that don't make any sense 1) The burner should burn....shouldn't it ? Well, I used the flamethrower of my technical on an advent soldier and it took only the dmg dealt by the burner and no burning effect at all. Indeed the soldier was able to perform his turn regu...

Tuhalu wrote:Have you also researched the Blaster Launcher separately?

yes I already have the blaster and I'm currently using it with other soildiers

The upgrade requires Powered armor (Warden Armor) research and can be done from the Engineering room where you buy more items. The same applies for the Serpent Armor upgrade. You get similar upgrades for the Alien Hunter weapons at Mag Weapons and Plasma Rifles research. It's also worth mentioning ...

The armor in the picture is Rage Armor, which is the upgraded form of the Rage Suit. The tanks are just for the Technical's flamethrower as far as I'm aware. What Heavy weapon doe the Rage suit have by the way? Never unlocked it in LW yet. never heard of this, how do I get the rage suit to become r...

Idk how but this guy is wearing the blaster on the RAGE https://www.gameinformer.com/games/xcom ... 01827.aspx

Hi guys I've decided to force the spawn of the berserker queen (since it wasn't showing up on its own) I killed it and developed the rage suit. I notice it wears a MK2 gauntlet and apparently I cannot change it. Any way (even via modding some ini) to change the rage's MK2 with a Blaster Gauntlet (th...

There is a vanilla bug in the hacking skills where cooldowns (and I suppose charges) are not applied if you cancel out of the hacking animation with the escape key before it completes. oh, nice to know it! So for example, I attempt an hack, hack is successfull, I press Esc Esc Esc Esc Esc to speed ...

Haywire (full override is a variant of this) is a bit glitchy in general. Sometimes you'll be able to use it every round and other times its cooldown will correctly apply and you'll have to wait some turns. In the case of Full Override, you should only get 1 successful Full Override use in a missio...
