[QUOTE=archival;47903291]Long war what are you doing, This is my second mission and my entire squad are rookies why are there 6 outsiders.[/QUOTE] Speaking of rookies in bad situations, there was a "light" abduction site so I thought "Yeah I'll take a couple corporals and then the rest of my specialists to get them a bit competent" 2 fucking Sectopods, a Cyberdisk, 3 sectoids, 2 drones and a seeker later and it's RIP Specialist Dasgupta, get well soon Lance Corporal Kelly - thick bitch deserved it though, missed a 98% shot on a flanked sectoid that was shielding the second sectopod when it was already down to 6hp. Got one of my Gauss rifles and a scope broke too. The PFC I took along was a total badass though

[QUOTE=Archimedes;47901200] Has anybody actually gone ahead and done a play through with the FP name list while providing periodic (and reasonably brief) updates on their progress?

Are there any gameplay overhauls that are like Long War but won't wreck my pretty little asshole?

Afaik longwar has an easy version mod on the nexus ? You can also adjust the settings via ini files too.

there's basically a second-wave option for long war that makes it easier, no need for an extra dl. idr what it's called. i used it on my first playthrough and it's a good intro.

The name generator linked in the OP doesn't seem to work for me in OpenXcom (both nightly and the 2014 1.0 release). Gives me this error: [code] ERROR: yaml-cpp: error at line 0, column 0: bad conversion Make sure you installed OpenXcom correctly. Check the wiki documentation for more details. [/code] This is a fresh install, and it works without the custom namelist.

I really hope that in X-COM 2 it won't treat automatic rifles as all or nothing. I think every weapon should have a "burst fire" bullet count and the hit chance is calculated for each bullet of the burst. With the first X-COM, you fire a freaking minigun and every single bullet either goes AWOL or bullseyes, and I think that's what frustrated a lot of people.

I for one can't wait for the xcom snake girl hentai doujinshi.

I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of drawings of a viper wearing lipstick swallowing someone whole. Not that I'd be looking at things like that.

Why does everyone seem to be playing a version of the game that's extremely unbalanced and that they all hate?

[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;47905561]Why does everyone seem to be playing a version of the game that's extremely unbalanced and that they all hate?[/QUOTE] I assume a lot of people are playing with long war for starters.

[QUOTE=Rents;47904443]I can neither confirm nor deny the existence of drawings of a viper wearing lipstick swallowing someone whole. Not that I'd be looking at things like that.[/QUOTE] Why

Why not.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;47905801]Why[/QUOTE] Because the universe hates sanity, and works to erode it wherever it can be found.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;47905801]Why[/QUOTE] Because if there's one thing the last few weeks have taught us, it's that the world can be united by the promise of Snek.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;47905801]Why[/QUOTE] Because ever since Man has looked up at the stars he has wondered if alien life exists. And if he can fuck it.

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;47906258]Because ever since Man has looked up at the stars he has wondered if alien life exists. [B]So that he can fuck it.[/B][/QUOTE] Fixed

That sounds like some of the most powerful modding support outside of an elder scrolls game, I'm fucking excited to see what comes out of this.

So yeah, if we ever reach the stars and wake from cryostasis on an alien world with sapient xenos, you can bet that that some of the astronauts might "go native" if you know what I mean.

[sp2]i mean we'll still give it the old college try but its not going to end well[/sp2]

Indeed. Or worse, they could be fish, who just lay eggs and have the male spray their fertility goop over it. I dunno if fish even [B]have[/B] any concept of fucking beyond that, no intimacy or friction, probably no orgasms either. And amphibians are probably no more better off in that department than fish. But this has nothing to do with XCOM, unless we get in-game articles concerning xenophilia and the ethical complications involved in it. I mean, if the aliens have taken over the Earth, surely they have civilians who just try to live their lives like we do. That said they could easily all be asexual clones or worse, neutered, which would probably make xenophilia a very one-sided thing.

But that's precisely what we'll be doing in Xcom 2? Trying to enlighten the public that the free Alien Pussy they're getting has a downside. We're doing counter propaganda, hearts and minds men!

I guess we gotta watch out for that damn xenoclap. First you get it from rubbing up with some Snakelady, then your thighs get all red and sore, then you go to the Advent clinics for help, then they stuff you in a freezy tube and test you for psionic potential.

I can imagine it now. The class who hasn't been revealed to us is the seducer. One day things go wrong, He's out of action for some mysterious reason. Turns out, an alien put it's stinger in his ass and laid it's eggs there.
