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

[QUOTE=Sammyroc;49716059]In my experience the countdown carries over, so you can't just keep putting it off until the timer is up because the timer doesn't replenish.[/QUOTE] It doesn't carry over but you do get less and less time when it hits the countdown. First time it happened to me was the full 20 or so days. Second time it was down to 11.

Is anyone else having an issue where the game won't start up and you have to restart the computer to get it working? I keep getting a steam error saying, "The Steam servers are too busy to handle your request for XCOM 2. Error Code (41)." Error 41 isn't on the steam support site so I'm not sure what exactly to do to fix it. [editline]10th February 2016[/editline] And now it's crashing when I try to load up my save on the last mission. Fuck.

The whole stream from the other day finally finished rendering. Depics the first 8 hours of my Ironman Veteran campaign with the Facepunch roster. Skip to around 5h30m in if you want to see me sweat bullets, whera two patrols activate and block my evac route. [video=youtube;uq2yI7b6PZ0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq2yI7b6PZ0[/video] I'm probably going to stream some more tomorrow.

Probably posted before but hey ho. [url]https://xcom.com/xcom-2-stats[/url] Pretty neat.

So nobody knows how to fix the SDK not working?

When you're about to embrace death and then he runs out of moves: [url]http://puu.sh/n3yew/968daa829e.jpg[/url] (Linked because of possible enemy spoiler?) This mission was pure cancer also as it caused the whole squad to get wounded [t]http://puu.sh/n3yvv/413826b4e6.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=Kartoffel;49716969]Could you post a screenshot of the problem you're having?[/QUOTE] [img]http://s12.postimg.org/eclsxg8bh/Problem.png[/img] I already installed it 3 times, verified it with steam, and tried installing everything in those redist folders but I had the latest versions already.

Gatekeepers are the biggest cocksuckers.

I wish there was a stand your ground mission type, other than defending the ship. All the missions are either go destroy/capture A, and then escape or hunt down kill all enemy. Defend the transmitter doesn't count, since it's the same set up as destroy transmitter missions, only you have to rush to it. Game could really use some more mission variety in general.

I wish you could pick up ADVENT bodies to take back to the Avenger to sell or research. Or make it so you can take the body to get the weapon so you can research a way to reconstruct ADVENT rifles when you take their bodies home. You could balance them by putting them on par with (or slightly weaker than) magnetic weapons but also make it so they have to be obtained individually and they can't have mods on them.

Finally finished the game [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/550932579088849708/46E0BC78B3ECD770F189691F8A4B259AB7207B8C/[/t] That last mission [sp]Was such a blast. Dominated a Gatekeeper early on, used it as my scout. Had a ton of fun at the human-house part, got to send the big wrecking ball right through the walls, and ended up triggering both Sectopods that way. First time I'd gotten to see sectopods do anything, too; before then I'd always just stasis-locked them with my 2 Psi-Ops. The way they stand is up kinda terrifying, huh? In the end, I never got to see any of the enemy Avatars attack, was able to nuke them down as they spawned, save for the third one, which I stasis'd anyways. Ended the fight by Mind-Controlling an Andromedon and having him acid-grenade the final Avatar, that was a blast, and I even got a picture of it [/sp][URL="http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/550932579088842165/81AFFC8F70627D6FF83E1B13D4F14CFE7E262FB8/"]here[/URL] [sp] Final team is [/sp][URL="http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/550932579088821502/0941801D98EFD5B46BCA0777D273CD17610F1EEC/"]here[/URL] [sp] Could have probably spent some more time, got another WAR Suit for my healer, a Wraith Suit for my Assault, and finished off the Leader Class tree on my Sharpshooter for that +Aim bonus on the whole team, but it all worked out fine enough[/sp] Now, time to play through again on a higher difficulty, without savescumming like a monster

This last mission is doing something that's making my game buggy as hell. I missed a 100% shot, all of my soldiers got acid burn randomly when no enemies were even active, I tried using faceoff but my guy just stood up then sat down and ended the turn. Is the main enemy of the last mission the game itself?

go get [url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=621229846]this mod instead[/url] as it does what i was doing better [QUOTE=mralexs;49717026][img]http://s12.postimg.org/eclsxg8bh/Problem.png[/img] I already installed it 3 times, verified it with steam, and tried installing everything in those redist folders but I had the latest versions already.[/QUOTE] Install the stuff in steamapps\common\XCOM 2 SDK\Binaries\Redist.

More game breaking bugs and crashes, guess I'll just wait for that patch then.

if i knew how fucking buffed PSI soldiers got in 2, i would have made a whole squad of the fuckers from the get go.

Dude psi soldiers are so fucking OP it's hilarious and fun. I didn't get one until I was well past alien tech and I regret not getting one asap.

[QUOTE=Hogie bear;49717782]Throw a grenade, then use face off.[/QUOTE] I had no trouble taking them out, same with the gatekeeper that was inside the UFO, it was just kinda like "wow what the fuck three of them already?" :v:

I'm afraid of them patching the game and it either breaks my save or some changes require new saves. Consequently I'm hoping to finish the game real quick now though, I'm pretty sure I can just railroad the last few missions. [sp] I researched the psionic gate, and I have to skulljack a codex. I'm in a really good position soldier and gear wise, all colonels and end armor/weapons so I'm hoping I can play it out indefinitely so I can max out a psi operative or two.[/sp] I'm really digging my squad setup, but it's a really delicate synergy. Every soldier fulfills a particular goal, and swapping one person screws it up, especially my specialists. One is combat focused and one is medic focused.
