Impossible Ironman is pure awesomesauce. Classic is just too easy

Classic isn't very hard once you learn and employ sound tactics. Shiv abuse helps a lot, too.

Can't believe I caved in and bought the game, let alone the Digital Deluxe... at GMG

Well that 27% code was a lot, probably won't see a discount like that for another year on Steam... let's hope the "future content" of the game makes it worth getting

So the 3 mods from LWS:

- Carbine weapons. Less damage, mobility bonus and harder to spot from concealment.
- Muton Centurion. Kind of a leader for aliens.
- Officer subclass. Like psy on EU/IW, you need to train them and use resources, can only take 1 per mission.

As expected, some small stuff to show off the mod engine.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

Yeah, they are showing it off right now on PAX. I am not versed in mods, but that XCOM 2 modding capabilities will be huge.

Given that they are shipping a whole game engine (more or less) for modders to use, huge is an understatement

Sounding more and more like this game is going to get years of value out of itself

Panel starts at 2:20:00 roughly. The cutscene for the first mission is at the end of the panel.

And if they showed it at Pax then I'm sure they'll put it up on youtube.

If they don't then thank the lordy!

EW I/I is pure pain, you basically have to hide out of sight and bait the AI for the first 5-6 encounters (until you get to carapace armor basically) cause otherwise it's playing dice and if you lose your shit gets pushed in (your dudes getting one shot or/and panicking). Your dudes have shit aim and no abilities, if more than one pack patrols into you it's probably gg, ect.
Then you get carapace and lasers and you just 1a2a3a the game.

LW impossible is a lot more enjoyable, cause even if it's brutally hard you still feel you are given tools to work with and do something.
Be nice, buy wards and don't feed double buff.

When you don't have the tools and it's unfair it is when the game truly shines for me. Early game LW is just a gap between classic and impossible.

Review embargo is up and by a quick look of the reviews it seems to be getting good reviews.

I don't think I'll be doing much this weekend other than eating and playing the game

I can't think properly if I don't eat something when I'm hungry so that's why I'll leave my chair for food (even if it is just something simple). Oh, and to make the black gold (aka coffee)
