Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Sounding awesome so far, just gutted my time off work will run out right when people expect a release :cry: . One more question though, has anything changed regarding the progression of enemy types? What I mean is, as you get further into the campaign in vanilla you stop seeing advent all together,...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Do the aliens have their own tech-tree now? Or at least some sort of progression that can be influenced by the player? (For instance they get research when they have facilities constructed and the player needs to destroy them) Have you changed anything about the black market? Are facility assaults ...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Amazing work as always from the LW Team. Quick question, does this LW mod address the excessive (at least from my view point) use of the round timers found in the base game to bring the game back to a more strategy focused and management play vs a hurried play? I like the rare use of the timers fou...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Oh man, I'm so excited for all this. A huge thanks for everyone at P.I. I say it now because I might regret later, when I get squad wiped 5 times in a row, haha But I have to ask, how will LW2 interact with the DLCs? Will the Weapons of the Hunt, the SPARKs and, more importantly, the Alien Rulers b...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Just read that rebels can be hidden faceless. Ive wished for that feature since I saw that enemy for the first time 2 years ago. How will it affect gameplay though? I imagine a personel loss penalty if a faceless infiltrator gets stationed in the avenger or a haven. Going to let you guys discover t...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Slightly unrelated but not quite: How do the Avenger and Skyranger play in this? Any more uses for Firebrand? Always thought it was a bit of a waste landing the avenger almost on top of a mission and then making the skyranger fly about a hundred yards. Also, does the Avatar project still serve as a...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Is there any information on how Long War 2 will work with other mods? In particular, would mods that change or otherwise remove the Avatar Clock be completely incompatible with this mod? One of our guys is testing different mods for compatibility, but I can't really say whether those would work or ...

I'm not sure which perks you mean, sorry. In response to your second question, yes, there's gear and some perks (mostly on the Shinobi class...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Ah, that's cool. I notice that on the image the infiltration is at 148%. Does a percentage above 100% have any difference to 100%? Yes, you can go up to 200%. Above 100% you can reduce the number of enemies even more down to a minimum -- can't go below "Extremely light" which will be fewe...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
Re squad sizes that sounds ingenious and great for variety. Fiendish to balance but hopefully you've got through enough playtester tears to manage it. Follow-up question though: what does that mean for pod sizes? I don't care how many enemies my 8-man squad has to face if they're all in 3-man pods....

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
1) So this is the new system that replaces fatigue? You have to commit a squad to a mission X days before it hits, during which time they can't do anything else? And hence you need multiple squads if you want to optimise your mission frequency? If so then neat. Of course that means you also need a ...

Re: Long War 2 feature announce: Strategy layer changes
This is amazing. So I take it soldiers can now no longer be recruited limitlessly? That would fit the rebel theme so much better. How does the "gather intelligence" part work? Do you get clues about Advent activities similar to the exalt base search in EW? Or is it just a mission that pop...

Re: Will we still be able to respec our soldiers via AWC?
That's still in. It's not a mechanism I'm fond of, so the time to respec increases with each soldier rank.
