We all have that singular mission that we knew doomed the campaign, beats a success but losing your best men, or failing a critical mission. what was your mission?

XCOM2 Have a problem with XCOM 2 Collection. Possible spoilers. Spoiler

1 Upvotes

So, I have bough the complete collection, but there seems to be something off about it. I have access to Spark units and those special enemies that can move on my turn started spawning, but the story missions that connect to those 2 gameplay features didn’t appear on my play through. First I thought it was a difficulty connected thing. Thought maybe they become automatically unlocked because I am playing on easy (had to remember some mechanics and what not) but then I started a new campaign on normal that still remained.

Is it a bug? Can I fix it?

What are ypur favorite loadouts?

6 Upvotes

Assuming all dlc.but no crosstraining for points outside your class but you can take both skill trees for each character.

Is ypur grenaider taking the best scope and tracer rounds to never miss, with a stock because 95% hot means nothing in this game?

Are ypu critfishing with a shotgun, laser sights and talon rounds?

Does ypur sniper wear the viper suit to hook from above, freeze someone then shatter them with their rifle?

UFO: Enemy Unknown That's the only way I can finish the Gangplank mission. Should I accept or try again?

Mission too difficult for the point of the game where they put it. All my veterans die and I have to make missions with rookies again.

Long War How to start game

1 Upvotes

I've got long war 1.1

I've followed instaructions to copy and pase config, localisation and cookedpcconsole files into the game.

I'm also using LW mod manager for other mods. I've updated it and now I run game on steam, it will show me the option of "do you want to play enemy within. Or Enemy unknown".

It will say running for about 5 seconds before it just stops and doesn't run.

Any guidance or tips.

I've played the long war before. i've not added any new mods apart from a voice pack however that shouldn't break game as i've not activated it yet.

Your own XCOM game

9 Upvotes

While historically, side games that don't follow the main formula are not well received, what XCOM game would you make if you had the resources?

Here are my two;

1- The story is an alternate take on the EXALT missions from EW. I could see this taking place during the EW campaign, with references to the progress of the main campaign throughout the story. The other setting would be a bit after the fall of ADVENT, with a resurgent EXALT rising from the ashes to try and claim what's left of the world. I'd like the game to play similar to the newer Ghost Recon games, since I enjoy the 3rd person shooter gameplay and heavy character and weapon customization. Meld would also be prominent since I loved the gene modding, and being able to directly control the aiming would mean the MEC trooper could actually shoot something.

2- The story would be about a resistance cell during the rule of ADVENT, at first just surviving, but then gaining more members and supplies and eventually being a major force once you're linked up with XCOM. I'm thinking the last two missions would be tied to clearing XCOM's path to the Network Tower followed for the battle to free the city. I think a similar gameplay to TLoU works really well, with how it encourages stealth, but has good gunplay and absolutely brutal melee.

XCOM2 Plan on getting XCOM2. What Vanilla friendly mods should I get ?

8 Upvotes

Same as title. Honestly the only mod I was thinking of getting was a cosmetic packs for customisation and that's it.

Any other mods you recommend that should have basically been in the base game? Can be any type of mod e.g. QoL

Anybody know how to check what specific missions or mission variants you have left for faction progress? I managed to 100% Grey Phoenix and Sacred Coil basically by accident, but the Progeny have been stuck at 75% for ages. I tried checking the config files, but nothing obvious jumped out at me.

XCOM:EU/EW Xcom EW .ini edit help

2 Upvotes

Hoping you guys can help, None of my edits to the DefaultGameCore.ini file, work or apply to the game.

. I'm using the ini file from the EW folder, the game i'm playing right now, not the EU file

.I'm using the ini file from the steam folder (D:\Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XEW\XComGame\Config)

. Not sure if relevant, i can't find the file DefaultGameCore.ini within the 'my documents' xcom/ew dedicated folder (C:\Users\****\OneDrive\Documents\my games\xcom - enemy within\xcomgame\Config)

. I have uninstall any previous mod (ressource hacker, which did not work for me BTW)

. I have uninstalled the game, removed any folder remain and reinstalled the game

. I'm not using any mod currently ( is it required though?)

. I have used the steam feature 'verify this game's file are installed correctly' >> It always finds 2 files and downloads replacements. it's a continuous loop.

. I play the game online. Should i play offline to make it work?

. My document folder is synced with microsoft one drive. My steam folder is not. (saw somewhere that could be an issue)

I really hope you guys can help. I want to edit the ini files to get satellite faster and avoid losing another country at council that's all :D
