XCOM V4: "Svinnik - Why is Shen's daughter asian, when Shen is black?" - Games

[QUOTE=MrHeadHopper;49753134]This bugs me the most. It's easily the most anti fun enemy in the entire game and it shows up on practically every mission. Absolutely fuck off with that; it specifically says it's there to guard ADVENT data yet I'm not risking ADVENT data when I'm killing their guys in a terror mission.[/QUOTE] Feels like it just straight-up replaces Mutons, when it really shouldn't cause it makes no sense thematically. And Mutons are rad, too.

Mutons never seem to evolve past 1 armour and 8 hitpoints in my game, and meanwhile ADVENT officers seem to have around 20 hitpoints and I'm very,very late game.

You know that begs the question, when it comes to Mutons. What happened to the Muton Elite? [IMG]http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/xcom/images/e/e3/XCOM%28EU%29_MutonElite.png/revision/latest?cb=20140122200054[/IMG] I suppose standard mutons are all elite now, but what happened to these guys, would have been neat to run into a more advanced muton down the line, like how Advent have officers.

I went a whole game never seeing the crysallid reproduction.

Finally got my mod uploaded! Cheers! [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=625759571[/url]

[QUOTE=Mrfantasticool;49753352]Mutons never seem to evolve past 1 armour and 8 hitpoints in my game, and meanwhile ADVENT officers seem to have around 20 hitpoints and I'm very,very late game.[/QUOTE] as soon as i understand enough about the modding tools i'm going to change this mutons have the potential of having fun new tiers of enemies like advent mutons, muton berserkers and muton centurions are different enough that they could keep appearing as regular enemies for a long time with the appropriate buffs i also plan to throw some vipers and sectoids on late game pods because just like with seekers, alone they quickly become easy to deal with but mixed with other, more dangerous enemies in a pod that you have to priorize is when their abilities (mindspin, venom, tongue grab) are way more scarier and of course, chrysallids appearing way earlier in the game because by the time they appear right now they're honestly a joke. [sp]i also want to bring thin mints back[/sp]

[QUOTE=GÃ©za!;49753119]Sometimes I'm questioning whether ADVENT soldiers are even truly sapient or just do whatever the network and a nearby officer tells them to.[/QUOTE] Well about the ADVENT Officer Bradford says their superiority might be stricter training or [I]better[/I] mind control, which implies all ADVENT Troops are under some degree of mind control. Then in the final mission [sp]Bradford mentions that ADVENT Troops are turning on each other, or abandoning their weapons and fleeing, to which Tygan responds that the Ethereal are trying to "maintain the network" themselves, and apparently failing.[/sp]

Perhaps [sp]if disconnected from the psionic network [/sp]completely, Advent soldiers could very well be turned.

If anyone wants to know the progress of my Jagged Alliance 2 Voicepack: I'm slowly making progress, but I'm probably gonna release the first 15 when I get there, so that I don't get burned out. I got 70 folders of Mercs, so I'll update the mod for every 15 that I finish.

I just want to make a level that's a tall building with objective at the top and you start at the bottom. Or the objective is in the middle and extraction at the top

I think it would be cool if you could customize your soldiers to look like a codex, or at least have that hair effect for female psi troopers.

[QUOTE=mralexs;49754193]I think it would be cool if you could customize your soldiers to look like a codex, or at least have that hair effect for female psi troopers.[/QUOTE] There is a mod to get the [sp]avatar hair[/sp]. It looks ridiculous on the vips and civilians.

That Advent armor looks so much better than plated. Now I just need an appropriate T3 replacement since I like the appearance progression as well as some Advent themed Mag weapons alongside the rifle.

So I found the codex hair in the assets... how do I make it useable as a hat or hair type?

Suppose we could give ADVENT a psi operative unit?

[QUOTE=Cows Rule;49754482]Suppose we could give ADVENT a psi operative unit?[/QUOTE] But what's the point when there's already two main units with psi abilities

[QUOTE=Cows Rule;49754482]Suppose we could give ADVENT a psi operative unit?[/QUOTE] Yea it's called the Sectoid. Reintroducing Sectoid Commanders might be interesting.

[QUOTE=IrishBandit;49754540]Yea it's called the Sectoid. Reintroducing Sectoid Commanders might be interesting.[/QUOTE] There's a leftover Ethereal in the SDK files. I'm not sure if it works though, but it's there.

[QUOTE=Cows Rule;49754482]Suppose we could give ADVENT a psi operative unit?[/QUOTE] What I'd rather see is a ADVENT response to the Exo suit, maybe even ADVENT troopers with heavier weapons and a clear influence from muton DNA as the aliens get more desperate in their efforts. ADVENT is a very cool concept but it starts to feel underused late-game once you realize there is only 4 classes.
