So a little report on my I/I Ballistic run. The base defense went REALLY well actually. I only lost 4 guys, all of which were blue shirts, and only 1 of the blueshirts survived (For some reason I had only 5, which is interesting). So, congratz Fr3ddi3, on actually surviving against all odds.
Rest in pieces:
Wolfos -- Killed by Cyberdisk #1
Pat.Lithium -- Killed by Cyberdisk #2
Linkuya -- Killed by Cyberdisk #2 with a line of sight glitch
Grimhound -- [B]Killed by Mind-Controlled Fr3ddi3 who was standing in the open and shot you for 4 DMG straight out of full cover.[/B]
And that was the last we heard of Fr3ddi3, nobody really knows what happened with him.
nah i mean i didn't even want to watch that pax video anyway

Holy shit long war has a difficulty spike in January. Wiki lied and said ethereals come in February. Plasma stormguns are awesome though.
People always wonder "how come my soldier can't hit that big alien, wtf? Fix your game Jake".
The reason that people don't realize is your troops are furiously shitting themselves.
Jake Solomon confirmed on Twitter that tile LoS indicators are a thing.

He gave away the info I linked to to make up for it not being released yet. Apparently he actually didn't know when it would be released, he just assumed it would be released soon like everyone else.
what could possibly be the issue with releasing it...

I'm sure that if the Twitter account ever says anything about how long it's taking, it's going to be under the guise of "alien attacks" with plenty of the word "commander" thrown around.
Any chance it could be taking longer because they had to stretch the marketing campaign out after the game was delayed?

I wonder if that works both ways. too many times iv'e moved somewhere where my guy does not have a shot on an alien and yet when it comes to the aliens turn they shoot that guy without moving.

Maybe the alien shooting him had squadsight?
[QUOTE=Thunderbolt;48651920]Maybe the alien shooting him had squadsight?[/QUOTE]
Nah iv'e had shit happen where iv'e had a soldier one side of a tree and an alien the other and yet he's able to shoot me and not the other way around. That's the absolute extreme though. I'm more on about rubble piles and elevation which hides an alien when you move to it and yet you're still a target for them.

Fucking stellar, now they're lobbing off content for preorder bonuses. You know what's great? They specifically talked about fleshing out customization as one of the big reasons for delaying the game, then remove customization content from the game for anybody who doesn't preorder.

Except it doesn't even matter when I'm sure 90% of the users here will be able to preorder this within the next 5 months. And even if you don't, they'll still have it as a side option later on, just like with EU.

Is it more expensive outside of america or what, my store page says 60 dollars
Apparently 80$ in Canada, and a fuckton more in Australia. The rest seems fine from what I saw. 60 USD, 50 Euro, 40 Quid.
It's 50 Euros here, that's 10 bucks cheaper then any other game released in the recent past
Now we need a collectors edition
Man I can understand pirates in countries like Australia. Those prices are ridiculous. And Canada is usually pretty close to U.S. prices though, right? What's up with the random $20 extra?
