Sgt. Weeb is very disappointed to find out that his squads clothing for Operation [B]FROST FATHER[/B] did not fit, once he sees the thumbnail for the site.

In the last two missions, no enemies have bothered to do anything. They don't even attack me when Im standing right next to them.

Kinda disappointing how buggy this game is considering the delay, it's full of weird-ass glitches like these.

Is enemy within the same game as enemy unknown with some extras? I started playing EU a while ago but I stopped because a floating disc thing basically fucked my squad up on the chinese warship mission and I got salty. I wanted to play the old games before getting 2 (when the optimization problems and the bullshit bugs are fixed hopefully), should I start fresh with enemy within? I didn't get too far on EU so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle.

[QUOTE=Destroyox;49676876]Anyone know the face Beagle uses for his character?[/QUOTE] I believe it's a unique face not in the normal customization options. I think, not tested it, that you can name a soldier John Teasdale to get him as a unique soldier, you know, like the guys you could get in EU/EW.

Had my first ADVENT Retaliation mission. Dear god those Faceless are horrifying. Luckily they can't hit anything at all. And it was kinda silly that my soldier that looks like a middleaged dork sliced the fucker to death (but also pretty badass).

potential spoilers: [sp]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/307737558712534548/B780F8B81BE43816AA662DB4FD00DF9A14244F3F/[/sp] is this long war now

so far this game has been incredibly good for the most part. I hope they iron out the performance issues and occasional animation bugs (like the time my soldier stayed on her knees for an entire mission, teleporting from place to place and completely missing out all visual representation of the actions she took)

So how long is the timeline thing to the [sp]avatar[/sp]? I just hate doing "story" missions right away in a game

[QUOTE=General;49680567]So how long is the timeline thing to the [sp]avatar[/sp]? I just hate doing "story" missions right away in a game[/QUOTE] It goes up by one on the 22nd of every month afaik.

Started a mission and there was a civi hiding behind a pole right next to my squad when they came in, second I moved anyone they instantly alerted :|

Well slaving away at game settings has allowed me to play around in the character creator (sporadically), and do the tutorial. But every time I click something I feel like I'm rolling the dice as for when I'll crash. I opened a support ticket with 2K, but I think I'll be waiting for the first patch to actually join you guys.

5 Missions in on Legendary Ironman, everyone else has taken hits apart from my butch lesbian sniper 'Wojack', she leads the way.

Neat, I didn't know they were adding Klingons to the game. [t]http://i.imgur.com/6qKxD9g.jpg[/t]

Also because I'm curious/hoping [sp]for a fuckload of Lovecraft references.[/sp]

Oh boy, this game needs a huge patch. Don't have any crashes but amount of visual bugs is just insane.

Full cover needs a serious defense buff.

[QUOTE=Pappi_man;49680721]Oh boy, this game needs a huge patch. Don't have any crashes but amount of visual bugs is just insane.[/QUOTE] All I'm asking for is optimisation patch. My 3 yrs old GPU doesn't allow me to have fun with the game :( Or at least nVidia drivers

Okay, I give up. What's the actual intended way to deal with Shock Lancers? Having them cross half the map into melee range, hit someone for 4 damage, and stun them for the rest of the mission is really getting old fast, in the most anti-fun way

They run at you and then they aren't behind cover so you can kill them. Either way its dumb. Both lancer and ranger shouldn't have slash after a run.

I'm just gonna play on easy mode, fuck this base defense shit

Who else got their shit wrecked on defending the avenger after it gets shot down? I had to restart 3 times because pod after pod would be activated within a couple turns. I eventually figured out the best strategy is to run off to the right into the woods and not be fish in a barrel

Anybody know what files to edit for performance stuff? I can't find any .ini files that might let me disable shaders or anything like that.
