Fucking selling on the grey markets taking forever.
I cannot for the life of me mind control an Ethereal in LW.

[QUOTE=CGNick;48526477]Try some combat smoke and Psi Armor.[/QUOTE] Oh sorry, I forgot to mention Psi Armor. Haven't tried the smoke on top of all that though.
I don't know if it'll work similarly in LW, but stack some mindfrays on that bitch

The character customization in 2 makes me super wet.
[url]http://prime.paxsite.com/schedule[/url] There will a firaxis megapanel at PAX prime at 1400HRS local time. It is a foregone conclusion that there will be XCOM 2 coverage.

I forgot to add the date - it's this saturday. Also [quote=JakeSolomon]Saturday, 2PM at PAX, we will be revealing my personal favorite feature of #XCOM2. I really wish I could say more.[/quote] XCOM 2 coverage at PAX Prime confirmed. Now, I need to get that sound issue on my computer licked before then...
Exciting to see an actual feature reveal. Can't really think of a new feature we haven't seen yet besides the 5th class.
I'd place a bet on cyborgs. Not quite MECs, not quite gene modding. The Floaters to our past Mechtoids, essentially.
So, since I was bored, I decided to refine my "Go Ballistic" challenge since I had a lot of issues the first time I was doing it. So here is what I got: [t]http://4o3.nl/d8b08.png[/t] And yes, I'm thinking of doing it again. I'm curious how fast I can rush the Alien Base.
I decided to reinstall XCOM since I've been watching streams again and it's an easy game to play while I watch something. I went to download Long War B15f3 and they popped up an option to donate to the mod author. I suggested this months ago, why am I only seeing this now?
Nexus implemented that shortly after the Skyrim Paid Mods fiasco, the mod author has to enable it themselves though, so Long War might not have had it on until recently.
Do we have any rumors on specs? I'm leaving for college next week, and bringing my desktop is entirely dependent on if I think that my laptop will run XCOM 2, which handles EU ok on low settings.
fuckin dying to know what they're revealing on saturday [editline]25th August 2015[/editline] better not have anything to do with multiplayer unless it's co-op, couldn't care less

Some people speculate that it won't need much to run while others argue that some players will need to upgrade because the engine has been slightly updated.

I'd say take your desktop with you regardless. I doubt specs will be revealed any time in the next week or two. Better safe than sorry. But that's just my opinion. :v:

When me and my friends moved out at the start of the year, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that we took 10% of our tiny town's processing power with us.

It's always been my dream to go splitsies on my squad with a bud and shoot some xenomen.
Looking at the teeth of the pectoid I've been thinking my laptop probably won't cut it. Brining my desktop would just be another "thing" to pack up and set up, and a potential giant distraction. I wasn't swayed yes or no yet but XCOM2 specs were a considering factor because I wanted to play it at release.

[QUOTE=Fr3ddi3;48545943]I'd wait and see, promotional / marketing images are often higher quality than the actual game.[/QUOTE] The base footage was looking really good, especially soldier close-ups.
I'm honestly hoping more for a versus campaign mode where one player is ADVENT and the other plays normally as XCOM.
[t]http://i.imgur.com/k7ngdSg.jpg[/t] guys what if this means we can go beyond just adding ourselves to a namelist like, a shared dropbox folder with all our characters so we look the same in everyone's game [editline]27th August 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Cows Rule;48545630]Brining my desktop would just be another "thing" to pack up and set up, and a potential giant distraction.[/QUOTE] A distraction? Just how busy is college in america, because I sure as hell don't have much to do everyday.

I'm glad they made weapon color separate
