They can fly very long distances so expect to be ambushed by them. So I was forced to kill all the aliens except for the tritons shooting from the upper floors, while the partially paralysed agents crawled over to the yellow box.Įncountered the myrmiddon for the first time here.

One of my units took 8 paralysis damage, and moved really slow. I ignored 2 tritons with guns on the upper levels.Īvoid getting paralysed if you can.

So aim to kill 4 of those with 8 WP first to cause the rest to panic. Also forces all the melee aliens to crowd around you giving you grenade options. I don't remember seeing any grenade launchers. I don't know what triggers the final stage aggro to get all the hiding melee aliens to rush you, but it sure feels good to have the options that 8 shooters can give you. Decide whether the med kit or magazine is what you need more in the easy access slots based on how shot up your agents always get. Everyone needs armour, extra magazine, grenade, and a med kit. I had 4 assaults 2 snipers and 2 heavies.

This is the pure gold framework XCOM2 never really used to its full extent filled out by a guy who has had 30 years to think about what he'd do.Bring as many agents as you can. Just when it starts feeling like work you can wangle something tricky to make it easy if you don't want to clear the whole map every time (which isn't a bad idea to do anyway if you want XP). With a Level 7 Assault you can do it 2nd or 3rd turn pretty reliably if you want it done fast. I'd recommend learning without Blood & Chrome as it adds robots who are hard to kill if you don't know a few tricks with the right weapons (not assault rifles) but switch it back on as soon as you feel like restarting as their story is cool and they add more variety to opponents.Īlso Nests are the slowest missions, if you don't like clearing them let them grow into Lairs (fast and fun) or Citadels and just blow away the target. Stop reading old reviews and enjoy the game. The weapons are strong, yes, but I didn't like the design. Legacy of the Ancients: mmm, I personally didn't like it and disabled it. The armor and assault rifle are very good. Some of the mid-game missions got to be a chore on release but I have almost finished the game on this run and haven't seen any of that after the new patch. Blood and Titanium: YES, add new enemies and the ability to transform your soldiers into cyborgs. I feel like pounding a bunch of bullets into the heavy concrete wall they have finished hiding behind because you are the fourth person to trigger, even though realistically you would all be firing at the same time, gets a bit old. If I was still going to improve the tactical game, I’d try to slow enemies even further during consecutive overwatch triggers. On the pure fun side, I really feel like I’m learning enough about skills and tactical options that the game is being more fun as I play. Also things that aren’t bugs, but seem pointless, like each disposable spider drone taking up as much space as a full character. Usually related to graphical glitches, like the scroll bar on the victory screen appears solidly before the window, which looks ugly.

I’m not seeing too many major bugs, but a fair number get introduced in a patch and fixed in the next one.

I’m still giving other orders to other aircraft, don’t unpause! The system works very well for one aircraft, but later in the game when you have five or more it can be tricky to manage, particularly the automatically unpausing. Probably the biggest thing to improve on the strategy side is handling multiple aircraft. Where I personally would put effort has now changed to the strategy side. I think it needed work before, but the tactical balance felt more important. I think the tactical game feels good now, really good, but the strategic side needs work.
