[QUOTE]New option to only use Character Pool creations until the pool is exhausted [/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=CGNick;49906322]Not that I saw. Also folks, 400 MB patch is out.
Notable things:
Overall optimizations, everybody should get boosted performance.
Killzone doesn't trigger while in concealment anymore.
Fixed crits being inaccurate when over 100%.
Shots cannot be dodged when the hit chance is 100%.
Shots cannot be dodged when attacked from concealment.
Mimic beacons aren't stupifyingly OP now, since they can't take cover and it's a 100% guarantee to hit them.
Everything happens a lot faster, and there is an option under Gameplay options called Zip Mode to make it faster.
Multiplayer no longer has a delay.

• Added camera rotation to MP
uhhhhhh... You mean to tell me you couldn't rotate the camera in multiplayer?
The horror. The horror.

Pretty sure they meant about rotating it when it's not your turn. I think that was the issue cause I can recall rotating it.

Yeah, it was just on other player's turns.
Glad to see them working on the mp side too
uhm so now in my old saved campaign I can't Tier 2 armour upgrade - Shen just takes the resources but no armour upgrade applies and I'm stuck there with kevlar and no resources. Thanks, Shen.

Might aswell go for that "Who needs Tygan?" achievement then.

nah, I gave up on playing the game because I feel the pressure of not having full voice pack done :v: Currently in process of cutting the lines and slowly moving to the implementation part.
I'm going nuts while doing this, I hope it works, because some of those lines made me laugh mutliple times. I think my mod has an 'issue' that voicelines don't play often, and I'm not sure whether it's XCOM2's voiceline playing randomisation or the lack of voicelines to choose from to play.

Don't worry, sometimes XCOM 2 doesn't play voice lines. It happens with every voicepack and I don't know why this happens.
First time I loaded after the patch, none of my mods were loaded, seeing as any custom customization option in the character pool is now gone. Anyone else run into the same issue?

Yep. Now I can't change any torsos/legs/arms on some characters so I have to remake them.

The patch notes say if you run any mods, launch the game once then quit and launch it again.

[QUOTE]*Required User Action: If you have mods enabled after installing the patch, launch it once, close the game, and launch it again. Players will only have to do this once. After the restart, the game will have initialized the patch to work with mods. While the majority of mods will operate in harmony with the patch, some mods may conflict with patch updates and will need to be updated to take advantage of the patch improvements.[/QUOTE]

Alright, that makes it easier.
[URL="http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=641607244"]Updated my Moonbase Alpha voicepack![/URL] It took a while but mod now contains a whole lot of voicelines, but some are repeated, which I intend to fix at later date. Most XCOM2-unique actions have now got their own voicelines. Let me know if you find an anomaly or anything. I know that filesize is massive, which might be a problem, but I can't fix that right now, I'll have to do it tomorrow. Sorry about that.

It was OP as hell before, but I think doing that would be the final nail for it. :rollout:

Also Firaxis agrees with me that dodging a 100% is bullshit :excited:
Mimic Beacons as consumable... *shudder*
Faceless are rare enough as is, we don't need a repeat of the berserker sauce.
So how much of a fps boost did you guys get? I got 2
Is going from normal to laser weapons a straight up upgrade? There are no downsides that I can tell. Talking about EU if it matters.

Yep, and plasma is better again.
About to play XCOM EU for the first time. First time playing anything in the series. Watched my dad play the old UFO games a lot. Are there any essential mods before I jump in, or should I play vanilla first?

Go for vanilla first.
Okay! I'll play on the hardest difficulty and get back to you guys when I beat the game my first playthrough.

Vanilla first. Then go to EW once you're done. It's the same game, but with a lot more improvements to it.

Don't play Impossible on your first run Jesus

Ahh, I see your going for the cannon ending on your first play through.
This patch has improved the frame rate so much. I wasn't having many problems before, except on the avenger where it would go down to 20, but my game play was averaging 40. Now the Avenger is doing 80 and game play is averaging 65. Now there's some improvements.

I don't really see the point in playing without Enemy Within. Why would you want to miss out on all the additional content and improvements?
Just jump straight into EW, that's what I did and it went fine.
dang

Well I mean, by Vanilla I meant EW. I guess I should have specified that.
