I beat it today. Pretty fucking great ngl.
>playing video games
>>746491978Yes?
>>746491845Cut to the chase, give it to us straight Does it have a cameo by Glup Shitto?
>>746491845Is this like an actual crpg or just an x-com-like tactics game?
>>746493009Xcom-like.
>>746491845marketers are sending their worst shills nowadays
>>746491978very much wrongthink on /v/, i know.
>>746491845>nglEveryone that says this can be entirely ignored since they never say anything that has any value whatsoever.
how woke is it?
>>746493558it has girlbosses, everyone has fucking toxic positivity, and the main character is they them
>>746493558U cant make an attractive female character
A STAR WARS GAME BUT NO TITLE CRAWLOH WELL
>>746491845I'll buy it and play it if they add more Jedi in a DLC, but as it stands I'm not interested. The Jedi are the best part of Star Wars, and this game is lacking. A friend of mine that has friends in the industry told me that Quinlan Vos will have a story arc in DLC planned for next year, but I don't know if I want to believe that. It sounds too good to be true.
>>746493558It's Disney Star Wars making yet another fucking game about Empire bad, criminals against Empire good. How woke do you think it's gonna be retard
>>746493869>TCW Quinlan
>>746493869The Tognath padawan is cute
>>746493869>>746493929>Glup...shitto....too good to be true
>>746491845I really can’t stand how TCW has become THE visual language for Star Wars.
>>746491845Do you need to know star wars lore shit?I only know darth vader and the luke dude
why did they do it?
>>746494015Not just visual language, it has basically replaced any form of media let alone the filmsNotable with dogshit boring plot points like the fucking chips or the lovey dovey individual clones, it's fucking dogshitI miss the days of Genndywars or the Republic comic series, when clones were just always loyal to the Republic and became the Stormtroopers (or at least some since a lot of the OT ones are recruits) and how that betrayal felt to the Jedi
>>746493459Probable skip for me then, unless the combat design is exceptional I need more to hook me.
>>746493558It is the same as outlaws.Empire - bad, rotten to the coreEverybody else - good, even the biggest gangster scum in the galaxyMakes me vommit
>>746491845It's trash
>>746493904>game about Empire bad>wokeYou do realize that the Empire is evil, right? Like, super evil? Comically evil, even, considering they're led by 2 Evil Space Wizards. >>746493929He likely didn't keep the carefree attitude post Order 66. He probably acts like a proper Jedi now. >>746493982Should've been a Twilek. Tognath are ugly as fuck.
>>746491845Dude is just mad he didn't thought about using TWO lightsabers
who the fuck are these umbran losers and why are they emo?
>>746494537At one point he doesAsk Count Dooku
>>746491845>Jabiim referencedDidn't expected them to suddenly canonise an EU planet. It's a shame Nimbus commandos aren't enemies, tthe Seps are rarely portrayed using biological troops
Can you, later in the game, expand your team of operatives or you are struck with a team of 4 for the whole game?
>>746494534It's evil but it used to be evil and cool. Anakin was cool as shit even when he was burning up and seething. Now it's evil but deconstructed into goofy incompetent retards because god forbid anyone likes them
>>746494571Their planet is awful>>746494654There's a mod out that increases the max to 6 for most missions
>>746491845Trilla doesnt make sense at the clone wars, disney cant even put their shit together anymore.
Absolutely generic shit. Yet another barely mediocre game, that's only praised cause 'woo STAR WARS xD'.
>>746494498There's no Empire in the game you fucking retard.
The best mission was with AnakinLove that retard
>>746494534>Tognath are ugly as fuck.I like themI like the ugly aliens as much as I like the sexy onesAlthough most of the other Disney aliens are complete ass, it's one thing to be ugly but they're incredibly boring, too
>>746494643I was hoping he would be referenced as well.
>>746491978Imagine
>>746493904>Empire bad, criminals against Empire good.Watch Andor
>>746494734>huh, why can't we get a jedi master, why do we get a padawan>see jedi master in action>literal 1-man army that can solo mapsI love it when gameplay and story intertwine
>have a chance to show the brutality of the clone wars just like republic commando did>make a pg13 TWC episode
>>746494801A true CIS patriot.
>>746494823Just watch 2003 CW
>>746494701ThisNobody EVER thought the Empire was good back when we had games where we could play as them but i was awesome to be a stormie and do shitNowadays we can't get shit>>746494807So... more of the same?
Just heard Count Dooku diedI can't believe thisI need a moment
>>746494807Nta but I'm watching it right now and it's exactly that. They also pretend there's moral nuance but at the end of the day the line between good and evil is never crossedAlso empire is laughably incompetent in that. I'm pretty sure even Sweden is a more advanced surveillance state than the empire. They can't even find a man who is literally a prisoner in their prison, how incompetent can you get>but he used a false nameWhat a criminal mastermind, I'm sure no other criminal in the galaxy though of that, and neither did the empire apparently
>>746493009XCOM-like but with a more involved bond system, if you've played Midnight Suns (this devs previous games) it has a lot of those activities outside of combat as well.i have never watched a Star Wars movie in my life and am playing it purely cause it's the closest to a new XCOM and i'm enjoying it.
Don't worry, one day we'll get our CIS holdout simulator.
>>746491845Not buying your goyslop ngl, imagine paying for they/them nu-Disney Star Wars trash unironically. Poser faggots lol
>despite making up only 13% of the galactic population, clankers are responsible for 50% of all rocket-related crimes
>>746494981what does poser mean
can i change hawk's race and appearance later on or just clothing
>>746495034>13% of the galactic populationMore like over 50%. Welcome to 'Lucas being bad with numbers' universe.
>zero company thread>ITS SHIT ITS SHIT AAAAA ITS SHIT ITS STAR WARS ITS SHITis this peak mental illness?
>>746495034That One Corridor in Polis Massa is a highly respectable community, bigot
Libs always going on about 'Clanker Rights' and 'Justice for George Droid'But bring up droid on droid crime statistics then suddenly they're all mighty quiet
>>746491845fuck ue5. this game has no right to melt my pc like that. and its a shame because I kinda like the gameplay
>bought shit at the black market>not very useful at that point of the gameAlso are companion missions permanently missable?
>>746491845They don't let you play as a Rodian or a Trandoshan, so it's dogshit.
>>746495187how about stop being poor and buying a normal pc?
>>746491845Yes it was great!!!!! I clapped and cried when I saw Anakin Skywalker™ and even Captain Rex™!! Holy molly!!!! Epic!!!!!!!!
Do you guys use repeaters? I like using them when something like a B2 shows up, but a lot of time time it seems like a regular blaster rifle is better.
>>746493869>The Jedi are the best part of Star Warscringe
>>746495052Means you don't like real Star Wars retard, you like sanitized Aidsney shit like TCW or the D+ shows kekI'd like to see the same faggots who cream at Captain Rex play the original Battlefront II's Operation Knightfall where you fight against the Jedi as a 501st clone
TCW kiddies really ruined SW fandom.
>>746495428I think blaster pistols are the best option because all blaster damage and crit damage bonuses are additive
What is a nice, balanced team pre-Jedi? I'm thinking Scoundrel, Scout, Gunslinger and either Medic or Heavy. Sometimes the last one can be replaced with an Astromech.
>>746495532seek help
>>746493705>the main character is they themis this true?
There should be an undo turn option
>>746495779The devs said it was out of lazyness not to voice two sets of lines, who knows. It's funny because the game basically treats Hawks as a man anyway and Hawks' personality is middle-aged veteran soldier with his bros.
>>746495843Tricks calls him "sir" sometimes so it likely is truly laziness/budget
>>746493495>>746493705>>746493904>>746493929>>746494015>>746494138>>746494823>>746494981>>746495351>hurr durr I dont like disney star wars so the game is shitOkay we get it, but do you really need to fuck up every single thread with this?
>>746495524>umm you like Alien because of xenomorphs?? cringeWhy is this so common in SW "fandom"
>>746495843Thanks, I am not buying it.
>>746495936Do you really want to discuss the game's merits without star wars? Because it's leaning on the star wars name entirely
>>746493705>and the main character is they themisnt that just so they could save money by only having ONE set of dialogue?
>>746495532imagine being such a faggot you intentionally want to sound like star wars elitist
>>746495927they like using sir genderless in military shit now, fireteam elite 2 has you calling the female general sir
>>746495965Majority likes it for predators.
What the fuck am I supposed to do with krabbs? His special is retarded and just gets him killed.
>>746495936Retard the problem isn't that it's made by Yidsney, it's that it's so sanitized and we're tired of itEvery single fucking game has the exact same story, always stars either a do-gooder criminal or a Rebel or a criminal who turns into a Rebel or an Imperial who turns into a Rebel, there's always some woke bullshit inside, everything must hae obnoxious references to TCW or Ahsoka or whatever, it's exhausing.Look at this fucking game, it's the same as the rest of them with different gameplay. No bite to it, you could probably redo the Outlaws story and it'd work the same. There is no uniqueness.>>746496029It's not about being elitist dumbass, it's about having stuff that actually makes a point and isn't slop
>>746495985>without star warsif without star wars means constant crying about disney then yeah
>>746491845I beat it last night and found the game pretty mediocre and bland desu. I found midnight Suns to be much better. And obviously Xcom is way better too.
>>746496029Okay kid
>>746495428They are worthless.>>746495675Overwatch makes all your shots cost 1ap just like the pistol even on a longblaster.Retaliation is a free shot no matter the AP cost of the weapon.Assists are free shots no matter the AP cost of the weapon.Extremely late game they are worth using for damage after you farm all the +damage bonds, but before that they are only good for farming advantage.
>>746495997So just make the game have a main character like countless of other games with either a male or female protag? Is this shit cope or are you faggots actually defending they/them bullshit now
>>746496075It refreshes on kill, chain it with other shit
>>746495235I'm surprised the Japanese would be at all interested in this game
>>746496075Who tf is Krabbs?
>>746496101okay, you dont like it. Feel free to leave, this is a thread about the game, and not about the story elements of star wars you hate.
zamn tel-rea's va is kinda cute...
>>746495936It wouldn't be modern 4chan without some of the worst attempts at trolling ever scene.
>>746496168Ok. I respec soldier and boosted ability plus melee damage so I can guarantee death. We'll see.
ez af
>>746496075The blue dude is kinda goated, push people off edges or use it after battering them down, he refreshes all his points
>>746494967What fucking activities? The only thing you do outside of combat is upgrades and occasional companions talk
>>746496237seen*
>>746491845Finally.Midnight Suns, but good.
>>746494823XCOM 2 didnt even do this despite framing the game as a guerilla war against an overwhelming forceNo alien beheadings, no suicide bombings, no guaranteed losses to make sure the mission is accomplished everyone is a pussy
>>746496198Maybe we'd leave if there was any Star Wars content that appealed to people who like the franchise. Unfortunately there hasn't been since over a decade ago.
>>746496183Wasn't there a decent Japanese xcom community
>>746495532>sanitized Aidsney shitYes, because original movies were so gritty, edgy and realistic
>>746491845I hate Disney Star Wars but I might still get Galactic Racer. Gonna play Fire Emblem instead of this
>>746495235>1st fanart i've seen of the game and its from japanAt least they have good taste, I hope they like Tel-Rea
>>746495190Yes. They will also leave your ass if you ignore them
>>746495235Cute clone husband
>>746496358Original movies didn't have clones not do Order 66 because they're heckin humans with feelings tooOriginal movies didn't have the Empire have constant defections every three minutesOriginal movies didn't have a thousand different random people able to wsubvert the supposed authoritarian regime where it's clear that it basically could be overthrown at any secondOriginal movies didn't have black girlbosses bitching about injustice or whatever
>>746495097I'm not saying its shit. Its just very meh. Its like a 6 or 7 out of 10.
>>746495701Medic is only good for farming bonds.Scout is amazing simply because it farms advantage like crazy and has the best single target nuke.Heavy breaks the game in half, breaks enemy AI with taunt, breaks enemy damage with unlimited defense especially on trick, breaks the action economy with retaliation shots.Scoundrel for guaranteed crits to explode single targets.Assault is good for the cheap AoE until you get the Mando.
>>746496372>Rescue mission>Don't use the rocket launcher for the entirety of it>Get everyone to the evac zone>Have 10 advantage>Shoot the rocket launcher at enemies before leavingGod bless
Has anyone found a good outfit for Hwakes?
Make sure you bring the Jedi on the final mission of the game. She can push a bunch of enemies into the voids
>>746494823agreed, immediately noticed that shit and it's faggy as fuckthe game feels limp wristed as fuck
>>746496297They do have the trophy room, and the ability to skin the Alien Rulers after you kill them to wear them like suits, and scare the shit out of enemies.
>>746494967>if you've played Midnight Suns (this devs previous games) it has a lot of those activities outside of combat as well.You'd think they'd have learned not to do that again. Everything aside from the fights in midnight suns was a miserable experience.
>>746496640The fights were the worst parts of the game because the card system sucked ass.
>when hawks STILL hasnt hatefucked you over the holotable
Grab the Better Camera and Swift Assist Shots mods, thank me later
>>746491845Well done xister. Proud of you
>>746496565The default one
>>746493459XCOM was thrilling because your men were unique and could permanently die. It was hardcore like that. Zero Squad looks like a casual goober game with no stakes and fixed characters. More like Zero Interest.
>>746496183They like Star Wars. Last year’s convention was in Tokyo.
>>746497248and literally all of your characters can die in zero company if you arent a pussy that turns permadeath off, lol
>>746497249True, I guess we wouldn't have gotten random Anime Star Wars if that wasn't the case
>>746497248The fixed characters can permanently die, you can also ignore the premakes and run with a custom squad just like in XCOM. The game has many problems but you are just being a retard.
Republic vs CIS > Empire vs Rebels
>Hawks, are people afraid of me?>What do you want to hear? Fucking kek
>>746497364Why does it still look like cal-arts garbage?
>>746497415the truth too difficult for retards to bearempire vs rebels is the same shit every time, and its so basic and nonsensical to the point they REPEATED it for the sequel trilogy with basically nothing changed
>>746497520who was that?
>>746496314>Maybe we'd leave if there was any Star Wars content that appealed to people who like the franchiseAnon you obviously don't like the franchise, not anymore. If you are really so unsatisfied with it then why keep giving it your attention? Maybe you should just move on and give your attention to something you actually enjoy.
>>746497630I think Trick
>>746497630Runa
>>746497695Holy shit, someone has the 'death of a hobby' comic because i found the guy it's about.
>/v/ now loves disney goyslop for literal npcshow the mighty have fallen
>>746497937whats your slop of choice
>tfw no mando gf
>>746496156Overwatch and retaliation are conditional though, by midgame you can use 6-8 basic shots per turn with AP restoration and it squeezes the most damage out of weapon mods and onslaught stacks per action
>>746497879
Mod for a dedicated slugthrower when
>>746498192>text text text>look I am smart
Is the +credit or +intel passive better for a custom nigga?
>>746498243Look at the dude holding the weapon on the left, christ.
>>746498118Cyr is the worst companion from a gameplay perspective correct?
>>746498279its probably the best for min maxing but its probably not necessary tbqh
>>746496183The Japanese love Star Wars, there's even a decent Star Trek following that likes TOS and TNG.
>>746498306>worstTotal opposite, her darts+ult are insanely good she's a total advantage hog but she'll clear the map for you, plus the jetpack is useful for objectives
>>746496526KEK
>>746495524>Hating JediClanker.
>>746498306No, she's gigabusted, but she's a greedy whore that hogs all the Advantage so you run her with a Scout.
>>746498379yea I was surprised that her jetpack is only 2adv and can get her everywhere
>>746491845First I thought it was pretty decent building up to an okay conclusion. Then Order 66 happens. Then it becomes kino.
>>746497248Zero Company has permadeath though, the only downside is 2 classes are story-locked to 2 OC characters who can die permanently and you can't get another. You get 1 Padawan and 1 Mando.
>>746498419Hmm ... Damn bratty mandalorian...! !! ! Seducing Hawks { } { } { } Rape correction is needed ... { }
>>746498450Does Trick kill the bug girlm or do clones actually need to hear shiv giving them the order for that programming to activate?
>>746498403I hate 99% of anime too, and VN.
>>746498306You mean the best, feed her advantage to plink some darts then detonate them for the strongest AoE in the game. She's a massive advantage sink so you need at least one scout to feed her.
>>746497364That art style is fucking hideous. Anime Star Wars is bad enough, at least use an expensive style of anime that actually looks good.
Is there any big ticket cameo? i assume there will be a bunch of references an fan service but does fucking hell Anakin or some other big character randomly appear for a cutscene or as a side character for a mission?
>>746498608You answered your own question.
>>746498608Horp Durpa is the final boss
>>746498608Biggest cameo is chadakin Well, and Plapatine, but thats to be expected
>>746498547He tries to. He's already mentally conditioned to be loyal even without the chip and to his shame, simply being ordered to makes him consider it. The chip forces him to do it in the end though, but he explains that even without that he naturally feels the need to serve,
>>746498608Anakin and the final boss from Jedi Fallen Order
>>746494138We now live in a future where only people with enough money to buy overpriced hardware can enjoy somewhat okay looking faces.
>>746498752Pic unrelated
>>746498674His mission was kino
>>746498674I love how they use him to showcase how strong a fully-fledged Jedi is compared to our girlfailure scrub-awan.
>>746498547He tries. You shoot him and he's out of commission for several missions until you get his chip removes. Then he rejoins the team as a Clone Commando with new armor and a special weapon.
>>746498752looks like some random game of throne actress playing one of the dragon cunts
>>746491845Which character did you beat it to? The trashcan droid?
>>746498852>>746498815STOP BULLYING NU-TALI
>>746499004GIRLFAILURE(Cute!)
>have only enough credits for onefuck my poorfag life
Will they add the AK via DLC?
>>746495532Nigga youre clearly a fat person, talking about goyslop and star wars. Knock it off. The jews want you fat and obsessed with a kids property from 1970. Either grow up for real or drop that language from your vocabularly. It's unseemly and youre no doubt an embarassment to white people.
is there a way to rearrange the personnel list
>>746494981bro who gives a shit about star wars im here for xcom
>>746499267Only faggots think that there is a conundrum here. Real men would get the flamethrower without hesitation.
>>746497248You can kick the donut steels off your squad and run genericos
Mando + Scout finally makes her useful. She can use the scout ability that gives Advantage to generate the points she needs for darts and jetpack.Also, shocked slows enemies.And since the melee niggers are basically the only enemies that can reasonably kill you, you want to dart them as they come.
>>746497248>chatgprt has not played zero com
>>746496506>Original movies didn't have a thousand different random people able to wsubvert the supposed authoritarian regime where it's clear that it basically could be overthrown at any secondoriginal movies only ever show rebels and imperials. the ONLY times we see regular people is on tatooine and cloud city, both of which aren't involved in either the empire or rebellion. there is literally no scale to population anywhere. once you get into the reality of planets and their populations, you will get thousands of people per planet of billions of people that want to rebel against the empire's rule over them. since the main story is rebels vs empire, of course they will show the regular population wanting to fight the empire rather than generic day workers minding their own business day-to-day.
game has no business running this badly when it looks like this, Ultra textures/High others
This was pretty awful, real "designed by academic committee" feeling which seems to be the standard these days. No hype gameplay. Real shame. Star Wars deserves much better
Is this Star Wars X-com?
>>746499797>I'm blue dabade bada badabadeeda...
>>746491845>Pretty fucking great ngljust say you're having a blast next time
I've failed this first major story mission against the coil on hard twice now. I genuinely don't know what the fuck to do, the 1st part isn't too bad especially since you get high ground on the enemies once you drain the entrance but the 2nd part genuinely just feels unfair>start off in horrible cover>start off with 4 ranged coil on one side and a bunch of melee ones on the other side, you basically have to just stick and defend right where you start>the coil just take significantly less damage than other units (I'm usually hitting between 12-16 on most enemies atm, these guys it's usually between 8-10).>even when trying to micromanage the resonance they all just slowly wipe my team because they take no damage and still deal full damage to my teamIs there something I'm doing wrong here? I've managed every other level without an injury/death (aside from the mandatory one in the tutorial)
How is the Assault class? Haven't used it yet.
>>746499971Yes, made by the ex-X-Com 1/2 devs. Don't expect it to be a proper X-Com 2 successor, it's a lot more linear and story focused and most gameplay is in the combat itself so no less of managing materials and the mission screen. Still worth checking out though.
>>746499997Yeah that was a little tough, I also played on hard but once you drain the basin part the enemies won't be able to hit you, so just keep defending until you win. You also don't have a droid. You need a fucking droid anon, they're busted and really good.>>746500001Yes you have, the chinese chick is an Assault class.
>>746500087intradesting, thanks
>>746493009its worse than xcom that came out like 15+ years agoits janky and shitty and its cutscene movie game thats carrying bad gameplay
>>746500175The basin isn't the part that's an issue for me, it's the 2nd part of the mission
>>746499997Anon there's water on the level, anon you have concussion grenades and other push abilities, anon please you are hurting me, just push the enemies into the instakill zones anon please.
>>746499286Dunno hope there is a Lewis in it tho.
>>746500220Really? That was the easiest part of the mission for me. I had my sniper and droid on high ground the whole time. Maybe you need to switch up your team.
>>746491845Can I fill out my squad with droids?
I like it so far but the party should have at least one more character. I've been using the same guys since the beginning
uh what do i say to this qtpie hime-sama
>>746500808Sure but they have no default attack, once you run out of grenades you have no damage capabilities.
>>746500808You only get Astromechs while and while one is gigabroken, a full team can't really work because they are big dick supports.
>>746500829There are certain synergies that just play way too well with each other. I agree. 4 man is simply too small to experiment.
What is a good 2nd class to pair Scout with?
>>746500829Or at least let you deploy multiple missions so your roster does something. perma death and injuries only hurt on like nightmare difficulty.
>>746500296I'll give the concussion grenade a go (I have one on my droid) but otherwise I only have Kabb's uppercut and Jae's rush attack, they both seem pretty risky given how out of position those attacks will put them.>>746500402They have one in the repeater class of weapons>>746500646Yeah I'm going to switch up my team for it and give it another go. Not tonight though it's a little too late
>>746492825Glup Shitto confirmed
>>746499286I hope they would add a shotgun. They even have assault specialization that would go perfectly with a shotgun. But no shotgun.
>>746500995Another scunt.
you guys are bringing your bro "trick" every battle, right?
can you disable the 3rd person aiming? do people actually like that it switches into it all the time just taking time?
>>746501086Ah, I mean as in subclass. Looking at Gunslinger, the pistol shot and the passive crit looks nice.
>>746501056>>746499286there's no dlc planned. the game is stuck as-is.
>>746501018Add 1 droid to your squad, they're indispensible. And focus on upgrading their +AP abilities, you won't even miss the other squad member.
>>746501103I guess. He is basically a free down everywhere he is sent. I'm debating if I want him pistol or repeater with heavy class though. Being able to aggro 3 guys with retaliate and his free defense passive + heavy passive seems goaty.
>>746501141You don't like the camera changing? I'm honestly disappointed they don't use it more often like they do in XCOM EU or XCOM 2, the dramatic stings and camerawork whenever new enemies would come into combat was really cool
I want to rape this whore like she raped her son
>>746501018>both seem pretty risky given how out of position those attacks will put them.Uppercut refunds AP on kill and punting someone in the water is an instakill, it's impossible to put kabb out of position with it because you will have 2-3 AP to move after using it.In fact it's impossible to put anyone out of position in this game because you should always have a Heavy that taunts everyone so no one else gets attacked even if they stand in the middle of the enemy group.Seriously, the entire game is solved with a heavy taunting everything then sitting in cover or even better running out sight, late game you don't even have to do that because you will have so much defense and HP your heavy will be immortal.
>>746501308I wonder if she can fathom my girthy cock in her cunt.
I've played this for 20 hours but I don't think I'm close to finishing. Fun game. I've got a bunch of audiobooks to listen to at work. Any I should add/avoid?I go off my own canon, i.e. EU & NU are canon even if they contradict each other. Only if something is gay do I ignore it.
>>746501359she looks very annoying
>>746501056there is a shotgun doe
>>746501359>Septum ring>That haircut
>>746501281Pistol for more utility in targeted taunts, applying debuffs like shock or spotting with scout subclass and farming advantage.Or if you want him to do big dick damage give him a longblaster and abuse retaliate and overwatch ignoring the 2AP cost, taunt means all melee will go for him so you can ovewratch close for high hit chance.
>>746501585are you guys really thinking this much about this game? I just go 2 assaults + jedi + trick and pew pew everything
>>746501056Theres a shotgun utility item and its good
>>746501308>guaranteed AIDS why though?
Are you guys playing on Expert + Beskar mode? Because I'm confused on how progression works when the enemies in the starting missions before you meet Jae just do half of the operators health in one action, it doesn't feel like cover or overwatch is making a difference, is there some NG+ that you're supposed to have before you do expert or am I really just this bad at XCOM games?
>>746501037I mildly chuckled anon. Pretty corny but you know what it's perfect.
How are your tentacle headed whores doing
>>746501765Do you really think basic pattern recognition is some monumental task that requires weeks of insight and research. Show hands.

>>746502237I don't see it
TOTAL CLANKER DEATH
I like xcom, but after all those years I just kinda hate sw. I can read about lore, watch old movies, but everything that was done to this frenchise after it got sold to disney makes me puke.So even if they include some more excotic races (which they jew onunfortunetly) and story that dont involve any fanservice, I would probably skip it anyway.
Do you guys use a medic?
>>746502485Your opinion isn't special, Anon. Go get real friends
>>746502467love that mission
>>746502485most nushit races suck but I like the new bug peopleit helps the best jedi in ages is one
>>746502503yeah my hawk is a scout/medicpretty comfy

>>746502976Yes.

>another fucking Jedi survivor of Order 66How many is that by now?
is this the best thing nuwars has shit out?
>>746503361this game is before order 66

>>746503428Talking about the ending of the game and Tel-Rea sticking with Zero.
Is there a way to check what kind of units you'll be fighting a against each mission? Didn't think I'd miss something so small from xcom so much
>>746502651i just clocked that the beads hanging off her mask is the equivalent to the rattail padawans wear on their hairright?
>>746501770One use per battle I assume?
>>746503428bwo.... order 66 happens halfway into the game, Trick's chip makes him try to kill Tel-Rea and they have to remove it
>>746503547She is a Padawan so yes
>>746503428... About that...
>>746502651>bug peopleHow do they look without masks and robotic attachments?
I'm thinking of putting heavy and gunslinger on trick.Would the buff from taking multiple shots a turn effect retaliation?
>>746498245>I can't read>I am retarded
>>746503636What would you look like without your skin?
>>746503636I dont think a depiction of them without the breathing mask, maybe something like this
Is there really any reason to try the crisis missions especially of you're on the hardest difficulty? I don't want the coil droids to get evasion and it seemed alright a few minutes into it but that encounter is total aids and 4 units feels way too small for these extreme difficulty missions
so what happens in the Stillwater mission if you don’t have the jedi bug woman
Trick, you son of a bitch!
>>746491845How do you extract at the end of a mission if you have an operator that's been downed and you're ok leaving them? I'm on PS5. I remember you could do it on XCom.
get hawk on the landing site and you can leave.a prompt will show up saying what to press.
>>746504247i dunno about ps5 but theres an option in the bottom right corner for abandon
>>7465035612ap to shoot it one use per turn. you can keep blasting all fight if you want.
Why is trick so obsessed with bantha ass?
Do companions have quest chains, or is more like a one off mission? I am through unlocking Mr. Freeze, and so far evey companion has only had one actual mission.
Shes...back
>>746504642full chain
>>746498540how can a mandolorian flaunt her ass so shamelessly!!!!
>>746504469>2ap to shoot itKinda steep. It is better than 2ap repeater blast at least?
>>746494852This is the first time I've ever seen a Star Wars character with a sword and shield. I presume they're lightsaber resistant?
>>746504681You unlock more weapons?
>>746494941Sources tell me Dooku is stablePlease god...
Clones for everyone
>>746496230She's super cute in the game too, which is an accomplishment considering her race look fucked up.
>>7464983062 ADV ability that lets you go anywhere on the map is never going to be 'worst'.
>>746505172good soldiers follow orders
>>746494941yeah, rip
>>746499520>And since the melee niggers are basically the only enemies that can reasonably kill you, you want to dart them as they come.This is what I noticed too. I'm not afraid of anything in the game except for melee enemies.
They should have let you recruit Umbarans like they let recruit clones after Bespin. I want an Albino squad.
>>746499997I don't know what to say. This game is like 10x easier than XCOM 2.
with this one simple trick you can rape meleefags
>>746491845Around how many cycles does it end?
>>74650651750 maybe?
Fathom not killing Hawks the 2 times she could've easily just ended him is some mickey mouse storytelling
>>746491978what a terrible thing to do
>>746506873Why didn't Fathom just rape him to spread her disease?
My hawks has had an injury for 3 missions.Had to chain a story mission and 2 companion missions and he was forced on all of them.Should be able to take him to med after ifinish this one while i do a random mission next cycle.
>Can't make Chiss>Can't even have odd-skinned humans, have to use Miralan who have the shitty face tattoos
>>746494967You haven't played the game
>>746507425Yes sorry it's actually a rogue like asteroids racing game
>>746501037
>>746501103No, they had an argument.
>Selecting difficulty level>Hard mode says a certain feature is disabled. >The player has no idea what this feature is or how crucial it is to the gameplayI really hate when games do this.
>>746498306OppositeShe's several leagues above the Glup Shittos you have on the team, but requires advantage to be useful
>>746498715>ZCOM developers also hate the chip and want clones to go back to just being mentally conditioned to follow ordersbased
This is one of those games that really wants you to rush through the story up to a certain point. The beginning is super boring.
>>746499997Overwatch + sniper + Kabb pushing coilniggers into water
>>746491845Temu XCOM
>>746494138Top left is top right without photoshop and make-up, and anyone who says otherwise has never seen a woman in real life. The guy looks the same because male actors don't cheat as much with make-up as actresses do. Now, I'm not excusing picking an ugly model like that, but they did not uglify her, the woman is just ugly by default, should've gotten someone prettier.
what difficulty you guys chose?
>>746508285Hard is the sweetspot for me. Normal is babby tier and for max difficulty I don't know the game well enough yet.
Can I delay the end of the game if I want to fuck around inside missions or no
>>746507912they seem to be heavily inspired by battlefront and republic commando so no surprise
Answer quick please, which of the following Coil Buffs do I stop?>The Captain's Resonate ability now causes the target to immediately surge>Brute shots knock their target back 2mI haven't gone up against a lot of captains and brutes I think, can't remember which one gave me the hardest time
>>746508093Why didnt they add makeup and shape the face to look like the Photoshop version?
I would've rather had a sequel trilogy following Rea instead of Rey
>>746508489Because they hate you and adding ugly females brings them joy.
>>746508285Hard, heard normal was 2ez. It's a tactics game.
>Start playing game>Everyone has weird, grainy hairJesus, you'd think they'd know how to render hair by now.
>>746508285expert, its been okay, i only had one real bad mission
>>746508598You need the right kind of ant-aliasing for the hair to look good-ish.
>>746508285If you're an XCOM vet and actually want a challenge you should play expert. I'm finding Hard a little too easy.
>>746508425pls respond
Controversial thing.Does anyone else hate that you can just freely lock and unlock Focus points?I kind of like it when your forced to make tough decisions in games like these and see whether that pays off or is punished in the long run.There's a ton of quality of life stuff in here but I don't know if I like it all.
>>746508627Yeah, no kidding. This shit looks horrendous.
>>746508834I think Expert should've locked you in to your choices. Or at least made respec cost credits.
>>746508839this shit fire
>>746508834It's pretty odd, but it does let you experiment on your first playthrough, which is cool. I agree with the other guy that max difficulty should lock you out of that.
>>746507819i actually missed that note when selecting hard so i actually checked all the med bay upgrades wondering where the fuck do i build the bacta tankhad to google to see that its disabled
is it as replayable as xcom though
>>746508834Yeah the progression is really casual in this game. But don't start a post with "Unpopular opinion" or "Controversial thing". Don't be a pussy
Can I grind? I'm a JRPGnigger so I need muh overleveling
How do you guys feel about the non combat partsThey look cool but the whole time I'm just thinking "Damn I wish this was KOTOR 3"
>>746509020I don't really know why they bothered
>>746508978No.
>>746508997You're right.I fucking hate it and the devs are faggots for pushing this shit. I hate retards who get mad when they can't freely respecc an ability in a game with skill trees and stuff. You made your decision now own it. Stop being a little bitch.
>>746508978God no. There are no weapon unlocks and no ability unlocks and you can try every class as much as you want by respeccing instantly. The only difference between early game and late game is that your soldiers can have two classes. Other than that the game is very similar from start to end.
>>746509020They make me think of Midnight Suns except the Abbey was more fun to explore since you had abilities and secrets to find. Still cool to walk around in Star Wars environments though.
>>746508978I don't think so, I just finished the game and I don't really feel the need to replay it unless they add some kinda additional content later. The structure of the game is kinda on rails and you can't just put off doing the next story mission to run random missions.
>>746508834I do think free full respec is a little too easy, it shouldve been something you gotta use the medbay for, because as is I basically never anyone in the medbay I will say though that I like that focus points are just a pool that you use across anyone, it prevents having a god squad and letting you more easily swap new guys in and out
>>746509091>I fucking hate it and the devs are faggots for pushing this shit. Just don't use it?
>>746508425I am begging someone to tell me what to do. I've been burned before by letting some innocent sounding buff pass and later realizing it's a nightmare to deal with.
>>746508978No, hope we get an expansion that'll change that.
>>746491845Fine gameplay, cringe writing.
>>746505607the outer rim will rise again
>>746509274MANY such cases. Is there a single fucking tactics RPG this doesn't apply to?
>>746509079>>746509106>>746509131>>746509234I'll grab it when it goes on sale thencheers anons

I CLAPPED
>>746509120>the Abbey was more fun to exploreWas it? Haven't played it but all I heard about the Abbey is that it's silly highschool-tier drama scenes with superheroes
>>746509334Troubleshooter. The writing is weird, but it's not cringe.
>>746509334No, as the coolest guy in the room I feel the need to inform you that I'm never impressed by anything and all writing is cringe and gay.
The lack of sexiness ruins the game..
Is it true that they call you they/them during cutscenes in this game?
>No romanceGreat, don't care.>Meet Tal-ReaGod damnit. She's so cute bros.
>>746509460There's a few little puzzles to unlock cosmetics but yes that's pretty much all it is
>>746509547Yes but rarely it happens. Most of the time everyone calls you Hawks or Hawksee.
>>746509547>they/themthis happens quite literally onceany other time youre referred to by name
>>746509334Haven't played many, but XCOM was unremarkable but not bad iirc.
>>746509547Yes, but it's clearly just to save costs. You play as a smooth talking southern fella as long as you pick male. Not saying the game isn't woke, the character creator is some of the most woke shit I've seen.
>>746509460>Was it?Yeah. The friend events were cringe but walking around the actual environment and finding secrets was cool. It wasn't amazing but it was better than just walking in a straight line and pressing E every now and then.
>>746509679Right you did say more fun, not great on its own. Carry on then
Pretty telling of /v/ nowadays how this pozzed slop is getting shilled hard here lol
Droidekas and BX droids legit make the game unplayable
>>746509756Be less obvious
>>746509756The fugly characters are the only pozzed thing about it, and all my guys are helmeted anyway so I don't really care. So far the game has been about as woke as the actual movies; that said, I haven't finished yet, maybe some troon or fag shows up later.
which coil upgrade should i prevent: strikers cannot be interrupted by overwatch or enforcers can use impact bombs?
>No Republic Commando armorAlso, not getting clones till late is a let down. This game really needs a New Game + or Freeplay mod that doesn't gate things behind story.
>Play as a mercenary squad>Dress everyone in clone suitsAre you guys retarded?
>>746509953just force push em into overwatch cones
>>746510248>he doesn't know
>>746510206Impact bombs. Overwatch is an unreliable way to stop Strikers anyway. You should be using darts to slow them focusing them down first.
>>746499997Nade spam assault spray the melee cucks. Overwatch over the exits for the range cucks. Rinse and repeat. The reinforce is brutal, but it's more the same.
>>746510248>no commando armorplay the game some more. What the game REALLY needs is a proper black color option.
>72 damage on a non critjesus CHRIST
>>746510249Not much else desu.
>>746510249Sorry but I want my guys to look cool and not like a Glup Shitto squad. They need to add some cool face masks, like Darth Malus' for example, if they want me to use anything but tacticool armor.
>>746509234don't count on it
>>746510248>No Republic Commando armor

Super Battle Droid!
>>746510249Your options for actual armor are either clone suits or generic sci fi gearunfortunately 98% of the outfit options are just random variations of han solo
>>746491845>turn based tactics game>beat it in 3 daysPathetic and embarrassing. It's woke garbage and this is a marketing thread.
>>746510249I did my first run of the game dressing everyone up in unique reasonable gear. Like having Hawks in just clone chest armour.But when I restarted after wanting the difficulty up I reason that using Phase 1 Clone Armour isn't really too far fetched if the Republic is bankrolling the Company with surplus gear since it's the final year of the Clone Wars.
>>746510560Yes but knowing that I think you can use your brain to figure out why an Inquisitor shows up in this game
>>746510757disneywars era is all about lore accuracy (98% average) over literally anything elsethat's why you cant customize cal to not be a ginger man or have him go to the dark side for a fun playthrough of his games.

>>746510869>>746510931samefag
Why would you ever pick this option. Explain
>>746493558Very. They/them pronoun use is abundant, there are gays, the yellow alien on your team is a tranny, lots of girlboss feminist shit, every human is black or Indian, and the main villain is a jeet woman. The writing is the exact same toxic positivity Tumblr cringe as Midnight Suns. It is shit. It doesn't feel like Star Wars at all, the dialogue and writing are trash, and the story is boring.
>>746510982no
I'm enjoying it so far, but really need more than 4 guns and limited skills. astromechs are insane utility. the story is pretty ok I guess, nothing too major. kind of generic. Though random ass not-boba fett joining your team out of the blue was weird.
>>746510931My thoughts exactly. Beating a game like this in a single weekend means it's short and piss easy.
>>746511061lmao yeah ok
>>746508839I laughed when I saw the zoomer haircut option
The Sith boss is actually fucking insane, I think more normie players are going to get dumpstered by it
>>746510757Dressing everyone as a le heckin military is not rule of cool
>>746511483it is when it's clone troopers
What is the rule of 2?
>>746509559welcome to the club
>more reinforcements
is that the padawans face or a helmet
>>746511587yea not sure who to bench for her. Kab or the astromech.
>>746511658It's her face with cybernetics
>>746511483Shouldn't you be monitoring a subreddit right now?
>>746511721She fulfills the same role as Kabb, melee and throwing retards into instakills, only much better
>>746511025Supposedly bond affects assist damage so if you want to rush bond levels. Also at max bond u get a giga bonus. So that choice will get you there quicker. But it's probably still a shit option unless you got nothing better.
My bug daughter-wife is so cool, brave, and most importantly, cute

The bandana made me think Solid Snake, anyone know a fitting outfit?
>>746512037I tried but the bandana is up too high and blends too much with his gray hairs not to mention he's got hair coming out from beneath the bandana
>>746511324fatham is much much worsetook me an hour to beat her on expert
>>746509437Indeed. Between prior knowledge of XCOM and SW, it was easy to guess how it functioned.Has anyone gambled and gotten the Hutt Mystery Box zone reward? I'm curious to see what can be gotten from it. I'm also hoping someone puts a mission flowchart together so I can easily see which missions are contingent upon one another for future runs. It'll let me plan things out a bit better as this run has gotten a bit sloppy.
>>746508285I'm only 5 hours or so in but I feel like I made a mistake picking normal. You take so little damage it's been trivial so far
>>746511095>Though random ass not-boba fett joining your team out of the blue was weird.Does anyone know what happens if you choose not to hire her?

>>746511095It does seem like more content introducing Cly got cut for whatever reason, she basically just shows up out of the blueshes cool and hot tho so its fine
>>746512387yes, even luke does that in his rage against vader in ROTJ when he's beating him down.
>>746510249In my headcanon hawks smuggled a bunch of armor with him when he was kicked out of the clone army, it would make sense as he's familiar with it and it's more protective than the lame clothes selection the game has
>>746512387as ESB and ROTJ intended, yes
>>746512387Thankfully thats NEVER happened in star wars before
>>746512387Fake fan, that's how OG sabers worked
>>746511986>suck hawks
>>746511095I'm sick of the cult plotline in vidya it's cliche now. I guess it's somewhat novel for starwars but still.
>>746512617nah it's been done a lot in Star Wars, Bounty Hunter for example was about a cult too, and quite a few old EU material centers around various ones
>>746512606Michael Hawks. Goes by Mike.

Oh, I unlocked the second spec option. What even is the play here? I wanna keep using gunslinger despite the fact it seems kinda weak, but none of the other ones seem particularly synergistic with that. Maybe Scout for the extra advantage?
>>746512387Lightsabers and what they can do is one of the most inconsistent things in all over Star Wars. How they work in ZC is pretty much exactly how they worked in the OT. The prequels made them light swords (heh).
>>746512813I just stick Scout on pretty much everyone.
>>746512757>>746512384contemplate the aroma
>>746512757>The helmet stays on during sex
Game needs an expansion where you can use 5 guys, like you could in the second half of Aliens Dark Descent. 4 is too few.
>>746512941There's a mod that can give you up to 6
>>746512941Well at least theres a mod for 6 member squads
>>746512953>>746512970Yeah but that's cheating since the game isn't designed with that in mind.
>>746512858i prefer that over the idea of a blade of light having any weight.
>>746513007Just up the difficulty. Unless you're good enough to play on the highest one already.
>>746510249Clones have become one of the most iconic sci-fi armies and their armor fucking rocks.
>>746512953>>746512970That would just break the balancing.
>>746510249Couldn't be me. Fucking hate clonefaggotry. Trick is always benched.

Can you beat the game on the hardest difficulty by only using soldiers?
alright just installedpermadeath on or off?
After making it to endgame, I've decided to try out blaster pistols. Maybe they're not worthless?
>>746514364He's not the best
>>746514364somehow, darth zash returned
...no title crawl? C'mon man. Nobody likes that anymore?
>>746514474Gunslinger becomes a murder machine whenever there's B1's on the screen.
>>746514564NO TITLE CRAWL, OH WELL
>>746514578Okay, but what if the objective is anything else except killing the weakest enemy in the game
>>746514564IT BROKE NEW GROUND
>>746514578What's the best starter class?
>>746514383permadeath on, but honestly unless youre really fucking bad at the game its unlikely anyone will die
>>746514604then you have buffed crit rate and HIIIIIIIIIIIGH NOON
Is he saying this so she can be part of the younglings he's gonna cull
