Now, both the Wife and I have been playing Long War 2 since it emerged, and while getting our butts handed to us as we both learn the new layers that the mod provides, we've thoroughly enjoyed the tension, the failure, and euphoria that came with it. So that she could learn easier, my wife decided to drop from Veteran to the Rookie difficulty, but this only seems to have made things tougher for her in the 2 campaigns that she's started.
The opening Gatecrasher mission appears to function as intended, but from there things seemed to get rather odd. In the first campaign, her second mission was a Jailbreak scenario in which she broke concealment quite quickly - she tries bless her - and she was soon swarmed. The post-mission report told us that there were 27 Advent units in total. In her next campaign, the second mission was a Hack Workstation job. Again, concealment was broken quite soon, and units started swarming at her. By this time I could see something was amiss, so gave this my full attention. In total, there were 34 enemies on this map, with 8 of those being reinforcements that were dropped in. Both of these missions were listed as Extremely Light activity-wise, and Infiltration was over 100% both times. In all of our campaigns using the Veteran difficulty we've never seen anything like this.
If this is as intended I shall happily raise my hands and move along, but this doesn't seem quite right for a Rookie level player?
) file in her Steam installation? I'll do a full, clean re-install tomorrow and get back to you as it's getting late here.
