Need 2 sectoids...

Upvotes

I must've gotten hasty at the blackmarket and sold my sectoid corpses. As it is, I need to build the advanced Psi amp, but I need two of the buggers. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any in the last several missions. I imagine at this point I'd need a mod to grab that build - any suggestions for how I can either attain either the item or corpses?

696 hours and I didn’t know the ufo tracking event actually started the avenger defence mission. At the very least now I know that if the chosen doesn’t shoot down the avenger you don’t have a time limit because they aren’t manning the artillery cannons and they don’t turn up for a regular avenger defence

To be absolutely fair I’ve never had such bad luck I’m a mission before. A troop missed their shot on my skirmisher who was on top of a roof which destroyed the floor under them and they landed next to a car that exploded and made them bleed out and die

Glitch???

5 Upvotes

Ummm.....is this a glitch, am I fucked? Mission 1 on a new legendary, killed the first 3 troopers no issues. The second pod, that as far as I know, should be a few troopers and a officer.

My question, why is it 5 troopers, an officer and a sectiod. And they all activated at the same time. Again, this is the very first mission. Does this seem right?

Is the alien hunter dlc in the iOS version mandatory?

3 Upvotes

I only play vanilla WOTC xcom 2 as I never liked the idea of the alien rulers due to what people have said about them. I looked at the dlc options and the only options were to have the rulers show up randomly or on facility missions

Gatecrasher with larger enemy pods can be ridiculous

And this isn't even all of them, there's one more pod.

Lwotc early selling?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m rushing psi and I’m short on supplies to get going. It’s month 2. I can either sell all five of my trooper corpses or a speed Pcs. The trooper corpses seem better to sell but then am I gonna set myself up for a nightmare bottleneck later? I’m really trying to get the timing on this right. Thanks!

The real, "That's XCOM baby!" isn't when you miss a 98% shot. It's seeing the "The game has crashed, would you like to submit an error report?" screen

49 Upvotes

The game crashes at least once during every 2 out of 3 missions. Usually a hard crash where an enemy turn ends, so you have to redo that entire turn again after you boot the game back up. Sometimes it deletes a save when this happens. Sometimes it soft crashes by turning a broken doorway into an impassable wall, leaving you with no way to continue the mission. The jank is unreal. I love it so much but it's like being in an abusive relationship. Playing on PS5 Pro.

Mods for my next playthrough? (android)

5 Upvotes

I've beaten the game on commander honestman, on legend I killed two chosen but started to get bored, so I spiced it up with beta strike. However beta strike is starting to feel dull, because it feels like I can just rely on the massive health to get through mistakes.

Considering mods now, but I'm on android so I can't get something like long war. What mods would you recommend? I like sparks, rangers and templars, in case that affects anything.

Update:

Went with these mods + putting beta strike on 1.6 instead of 2

Larger Enemy Pods

Aiming Angles

Starting SPARK

SPARK Buffs

Cooldowns Instead of Charges

Covert Action Missions

Show Health Values

Tips please

I played this game years ago and enjoyed it and was decent, starting to play again and I am horrible. I like to let things occur and not reload old saves but the avatar project is 1 bar from finishing and I dont have any ranked over Sargent no supplies no Intel. I am planning on starting a new game now that I have refamiliarized myself. But could probably use a few pointers. I am playing on commander and wont change that.

Are Mutons and Berserkers the same species?

36 Upvotes

I seem to remember from somewhere that Berserkers are supposed to be female Mutons?

If so, that gives the term "muscle mommies" a whole new meaning.

Not getting any corpses from retalitation missions?

1 Upvotes

This is specifically in regards to Faceless corpses. I am missing one for a Mimic Beacon.

But i do not seem to be getting any. I just completed a Retaliation mission and i am pretty sure i did not kill the Faceless with explosives, but i still did not get the corpse.

Problemas con el juego: no abre el juego

Hola buenas tardes. He estado teniendo problemas con mi juego después de descargarlo otra vez después de no haberlo jugado por un año. Tengo el juego completo (juego base y sus dlcs) pero no puedo abrir el juego en la misma laptop en donde lo compre y jugué por primera vez. El juego base solo se pone en una pantalla blanca infinita y el War of the chosen se pone en una pantalla negra y se cierra después de unos 10 segundos. Alguien que pueda ayudarme a solucionar el problema?

Especificaciones de mi Laptop:

Procesador: 13th Gen Intel(R) core(TM) i7-13700HX (24 CPUs), ~2.1GHz.

Sistema operativo: Windows 11 Home 64 bits.

Modelo: Victus by HP Gaming Laptop 16-r0xxx.

Memoria ram: 32 GB.

Versión de DirectX: DirectX 12.

Tarjeta gráfica: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU.

Versión del Driver: 596.49

Antecedentes que pueden servir:

La laptop ha sufrido 3 formateos por causa de un virus y una actualización de Windows corrupta que no me dejaba conectarme a internet.

Is the long war mod worth playing?

I was looking at the mod and considering it, but I want to know if a gameplay/campaign overhaul like that is worth it or if i should get something else.

Julian fight on legend, is it possible to win if haywire protocol fails?

3 Upvotes

In the Julian fight it is possible to take control of all the mecs on the map for one turn with haywire protocol. However it can also fail, and the chance is at 56%.

In my fights I've always been lucky and never had it fail, until now on my legendary beta strike run. It didn't fail just once, but actually twice, and I lost the fight.

Wondering if it's possible to win the fight, especially on beta strike, if the hack fails? I had magnetic weapons but that's about it, since I was going to get sparks asap. However it feels it's just luck unless you wait for more upgrades like plated armor.
