How the FUCK am I meant to afford anything, every job pays like shit
>cheevo for expert>cheevo for beskar>cheevo for getting over cheevos
is she killableexpert difficulty btw
>24 armor already at 75% hp>instant 20 damage retaliate force pushguess not lmaomaybe if I make a super burn applying team or smth
>>746582072I tried, could only get her down to about 1/4th HP before I ran out of time Her scaling is fucking absurd, she can end up one shotting anyone on your team and shrugging off anything that isnt a huge crit, plus multiple evasion stacks
>>746582072You can't kill her, because she's still alive a decade later, but you can finish the fight early by reducing her HP. I don't know if the cutscene changes vs. you simply timing out.And remember, you don't know the power of the D-ack!
>>746582072I got her to like half health, but then I figured I'd just focus on killing the clones. You need to cheese her evasion with things that strip it, eg. Cly's dart.
>>746582305>>746582180I have an astromech to strip all evasion with 1 deep scan. Bigger issue are the retaliate force push and the scaling armorthis is the end of my turn 1
>shots connect>they do no damage because that character wasn't a target>>746582072Some attacks ignore armor but I doubt that game was tested on difficulty above normal as usual for xcom, but this time we have no way of creating OP builds
>>746582365>>746582180>>746582167>>746582072If I could redo this fight, I think the trick would be to bring a guy with a repeater and +%crit damage, a scoundrel, and a mechStrip the evasion, hope the guy with the repeater gets the backup buff, then have the scoundrel put on vulnerability and mark the target, then try to triple shot crit her every turnthat might just kill her
When I was a kid, I remember how shitty animation companies would put out movies with similar names and artstyles to recent Disney films to bait distracted and ignorant parents into purchasing the films they thought their kids wanted.Now Disney is the shitty company making inferior rip-offs of real products and fooling idiots into buying them. And /v/ has no shortage of such willing idiots, it seems.Remember to remind your masters if your leash gets too loose, dogs.
Can I do missions as they appear on the holotable, or is it better to go first for companion missions? I dont know if some forced mission could fuck up a companion mission
>>746580334>every job pays like shitare yu jipunese?
>>746583074I always get rid of companion shit as soon as possible cause bunch of anons have mentioned that in late game you can have a couple of them up then get a forced story mission then acrisis mission and end up having to skip a companion mission or eating both crisis upgrades or w/e
>>746583258Usually it is>Harry DuBois if he space balls, help your nigga kill a nigga>influence unlock (usually expires in 3 turns) x 1 cycle>mission itself (usually expires in 2 turns)You are essentially nudged to blueball your niggas and play generic missions inbetweenIf you make a mistake you can get into a 3 mission long hell where you must have Hawks present (which increases the chances of getting downed repeatedly)
How does a nigga get the Concussion grenade Mk IV?
>+30% crit chance from Zero In alone>No idea what base crit chance is because the game doesn't tell you during missions because UI is trash>20-30 shots a mission with an astromech buffing AP>Not a single crit over multiple missions This game is broken as fuck, possibly more than XCOM.
late game action economy stuff is funbut damn these niggas are tanky on expert
>>746582072I beat her with 3 turns left (2 turns but it was the final action so the turn count didnt flip over) as the game gives you a success state if you put her to 1/4 healththe trick? Cly and an Astromechshe gets extreme defensive bonuses (extremely high defense and multiple dodges) of which the astromech removes the latter allowing you to lay into herthe last person who attacks her taunts her, so always attack her last with a dart from cly as you can inflict shock (reducing her movement so she can't attsck you) and fly as far away as possibleand the electrosurge from the darts ignores all defense, so even though your guns are dealing 0 damage, electrosurge is so fucking broken that you can still damage her quite well
>>746582072I thought this game was Clone wars shit, why is this reject from Jedi Survivor here?
>>746584835Order 66 happens about two thirds into the game
>>746584904>still haven't reached 66>played all weekend>currently on cycle 25 and jae just left>somehow still not 2/3rd into the game
>>746584904Ugh, how boring. I could see it end with it, but the whole franchise revolves too much around these few key events and characters.
>>746580334And now you understand why Hawks was endebted to hutts in the first place
>Want to get some specific info on the game>namely how to decide which weapon goes best with which class and why, and how to figure out why it works together>A bunch of articles are clearly AI slop just listing every single class and ability in the game with no real analysis>youtube videos that are clearly AI slop, with AI voice. Man, I never thought I'd miss kids and indians with shitty mics and super loud fans in the background.
>Finished the game>Still have 9 hidden achievementsHuh
>>746585226>Some kid who can't afford the mic opens a .txt file and types the instructions
>>746580334Do you have a job?
>>746583074>>746583258>>746583554Case in point2 companion missions in the next 2 cycles, and a crisis mission up that i have to ignore if i want to do the companion ones.
you know what sucks? the twist doesnt work if you've read this specific comicit's a nice surprise because fallen order never specified when it happened, but this comic did (it's in fwct her first appearance, predating fallen order)so when I hear the name on the holocron message i'm just like "yeah I know what i'm walking into"
>>746585632Just eat the Coil upgrades, they're not so bad.
>>746585226Weapons are very versatile and only sharpshooter class is railroaded into picking a sniper rifle. You'd think that pistol is good for gunslinger because of the ability that shoots pistol and returns AP if target is killed BUT that ability ignores the weapon mods and actually you don't even need to have it. When you unlock 2nd class I got gunslinger subclass for my snipers because of crit passive but they literally ended up killing lots of droids with that gunslinger ability.
>>746585637Why is he so black
>>746585632ha I feel like EVERYONE fell for thisyou'll have to savescum to the last chapter/story mission, then do luco/tel-rea's mission immediately, then do the next story mission, then the crisis then the other companion mission
>>746585226Longarm for long distance crit shots (designated brap sniffer weapon)Pistol for shooting B1s and crits because the base damage is shit (designated mando weapon)Repeater is weird - it has high damage, but only if you spend all of the AP for it - I used it on Trick because it felt appropriate because he has 2 attacks per turn - melee and shootingRifle is ok for 99% of situations
>>746585673yeah im not worried>>746585734I remember reading about it on this board and i didnt think it would happen to me cause i had been diligent with my shit or so i thoughtit feels like an oversight, but w/eIm not one to replay those games to check other options so i will just eat the coil upgrades and finish the companions stories
>>746584587not lying btwI fried that bitch
I get that the astromech advantage skill is technically very strong, but man, until the end where it gives 2 AP for 6 adv. (btw great job having AP for your moves & skills, and Advantage Points which you'd also abbreviate as AP) it's just awkward as hell to use. SPECIALLY at the start when it costs 10 advantage. "Oh hey, half my operators still have 3 AP, and they're in good positions.. Either I overcap advantage by letting them shoot, or I overcap AP by using the ability now". Also, since it's an advantage skill, you more often than not find yourself using it after using your characters skills, and for the majority of the game, getting 1 AP back is.. nothing. I don't use pistols, I need 2 AP to shoot anything, I'm sure it's possible to do good things with it early game, but so far it's kinda my least impactful advantage skill until I can max it out.
>>746585813There is not enough time to upgrade all weapons, so I just use rifles for everyone. Didn't regret it once.
>>746586025>Another yellow Cly enjoyerNot a big fan of the stripes on the helmet paint, but very solid otherwise
>>746586120yeah I fucked up and accidentally did the colours wrong compared to the chestplate

Thanks to the guy who recommended the X-Wing series to me last night. Really enjoying the first book.Gonna start Republic Commando tonight.
>>746575548I had to google her also because I assumed she was a cameo character with her introduction. They do the whole "Someone is here to see you", and then walks in and the camera lingers for a few seconds like the player is supposed to be like "OMG GLUB SHITTO I MEMBA HER" and then Hawks immediately talks about how famous she is.But nope, she is a totally new character. Bizarre. Feels like they maybe wanted to do Bo Katan or something and then chickened out when Mando and Yeed flopped.
>>746586537>Feels like they maybe wanted to do Bo Katan or something and then chickened out when Mando and Yeed flopped.theres always a bit of truth in legendsthis is supposedly from a beta/alpha build
>>746585726>>746585813>Rifle is ok for 99% of situationsHonestly this is what I ended up with. My Hawke is a scout, so, could I technically use a pistol and tag 3 enemies to debuff them? Sure. But painting 3 targets is piss. It already can be hard to get a hit on with a rifle, now my aim penalty is gonna be even bigger with a short range weapon? Seems to me the smarter option is to take the rifle, get a better chance to hit, and use astromech to give me another hit if need it. Does more damage, too. I put a sniper on my sniper, but I haven't even tried it yet because I'm so locked in to my 4man roster. See, online guides, leddit posts, forum posts etc, they all say shit like: "Put a pistol on gunslinger, scout, medic, scoundrel, put a sniper on sharpshooter, repeater on assault and heavy, rifle on soldier" and I get a feeling there is no cohesion or thought there on how the weapon actually works on the class. I feel like people are saying this, based purely on: "Well, in a properly balanced game, those classes seem like they would work best with these weapons", but then in the actual game, rifle generally works best with everything. I might take pistol on some classes if it had something like: "Your first blue movement each round costs no AP" landing 3 shots with a pistol is not terrible damage, sure. But as soon as you need to move it really eats at your damage. If I need to do a 2 Ap move (and you often have to), I'd rather have a rifle shot after that for 1 AP, than a pistol shot.
Repeater would work if it behaved like a machine gun in the previous games
>>746586664Immensely happy we got Cly instead
>>746586970>Rifles are the king of the battlefieldJust like in real life
>>746586537Maybe they thought just literally having any mandalorian is like a "omg, hype!" moment for Ster wers fans. >>746586664Honestly, Andor is the only good live action Star Wars since Empire. And the only one with the balls to show the fascism of the fascist empire. I knew the sequels had the Nazi rally style stuff, but they just showed us bad guys in black clothes with red banners and said: "These guys are bad, you can tell by the iconography". Andor actually shows how fucked up and evil the empire is. I initially liked Mandalorian, season 1 was pretty good. But in retrospective a lot of that was due to it being better than the last decade of Star Wars before it. Them realizing baby yoda is a super profitable marketing opportunity and sacrificing the storyline to say: "Uhm actually, this is now the baby yoda show, he's not leaving, he's gonna be here forever" really fucking ruined it. And also: What fucking retard thinks it's a good Idea to have ONE OF THE MAIN FUCKING CHARACTERS that left the show RETURN, IN A DIFFERENT FUCKING SHOW so that in his own show he's just fucking back??? Who does that? This is like the WORST way to do a fucking crossover. You do crossovers to expand a little, have heroes and villains interact with each other. You don't put major plot changes into another stories crossover episode. Imagine you're watching Buffy, and suddenly willow is gone, and you find out she fucking died in an Angel crossover episode.
>>746586120It was nice of the devs to let us dress up abd recolor the donut steels. It makes the order 66 mission kinda funny, when your whole squad looks normal but Trick randomly reverts to his generic appearance.
>>746588235It's pretty shocking to see Trick revert to his default outfit, because the game remembers how you dressed up Jae, and keeps this outfit for her distress call
Wait, how is order 66 represented if you DON'T bring Tela to the mission? She's just randomly there as an NPC? What if you bring Trick, do you have to finish the mission as 3 guys?
>>746588037At least it didn't have burgeroid 1950s gangsters on mopeds mogging "the best bounty hunter in the galaxy" like in FAT
>>746588449There’s a disturbingly large amount of Boba Fat fanart.
If I ever fail a mission on ironman, they surely aren't going to make me do all these tutorials and baby missions again, right?
>>746588714I've read that ironman deletes your save, even if you just have a story companion die.
>>746588714If you die you die and start over with a new save
>>746588714>plays ironman>doesn't want to risk starting over Why
I'm really struggling to find a genuine use case for the repeater. It's so situational there are other tools for deleting elites with scoundrel/astromech assistance that doesn't require you to forgo over watch and action economy.
Not begging for links but is this game pirateable or does it have EA denuvo or some shit.
>doesn't learn from any of XCOM's mistakeswhy does this keep happening
>>746589064nta, but to be fair, I also started ironman because: "it's an xcom game, you play on ironman". But now I'm playing and it's not really that much xcom. It's xcom flavor. I thought I picked ironman so dead soldiers won't come magically back. And I was under the impression that it would be far more likely that you get your shit handed to you on a mission and have to cut your losses. Then I discovered you have what is essentially a "main" character and if he dies it's just over? Eh, that kinda sucks.
>>746588976>>746588878Jesus fuck, why?>>746589064I didn't expect the game to be so structured and story heavy. I was expecting something similar to the Firaxis Xcoms. I don't want to go through the exact same content, skip a bajillion cutscenes, and roam around the ship to listen to the same conversations. I also didn't expect the game to also fucking end if one of the story companions die instead of just Hawk.

>>746590467Based based based based more
>>746588434I brought trick and tela joined instead. Dunno if shes always in the fight by default.
>>746589830you know that's actually something to think aboutthe game introduces new characters etc but people are so used to glup shittos showing up that they assume that those characters aren't originale.g they could've just used some extra 501st guys from the rancor battallion so you can point at the screen and clap because you know star warssure the game has cameos like anakin, rex and trilla and they could have done way more i'm surprised ahsoka isn't in this game but the devs showed restraint and actually added to the universe instead of rehashes like what everything else is doing these days

>>746590983When Rex showed up, I audibly sighed.
Cly owes Hawkes sex
I know this game isn't xcom, but I feel like everything that is different from xcom, is changed for the worse. Starting with 4 vs 6 man squads. This is, I think, a much bigger deal than people think. Because the best way to experiment with new squad members, or try out new units, is to have a "core" team of 3 or 4 soldiers that you know can "carry" when you take 2 rookies. It's generally a bad tactical decision to sub out half your entire team, let alone 3 quarters of it. That leads to the fact that you have usually at most 1 slot, to try any of the 28 possible class combinations + uniques. But let's be real here, there's a Jedi, a Mandalorian, an Astromech and buffed up trick, the only standard dual class combo you're gonna take, almost ever is Hawke. If we had 6 slots, you'd have a better chance of bringing some actual hired soldiers. And this also brings us to the "people don't die enough" problem. Losing a soldier sucks. But in Zero Company, if you have any skill in turn based tactical, you have got to actually try to lose a soldier. Which feeds into the "no rotation of soldiers" problem. Your guys never die, so you never take rookies. With missions getting progressively harder you never feel like "ah, I can take some chaff on this, it'll be fine". And I get it. You put characters that have story missions as soldiers. Losing them and thus missing out on story missions fucking sucks. (that's why story missions should be relegated to hub NPCs, and not soldiers and give upgrades you can use on anyone)>the ability to re-specI'm an eternal re-spec defender in diablo style games, but in Xcom, it kinda sucks to re-spec for free. Re-spec should be an expensive bacta tank style upgrade. "Oh, I lost my sniper, with that great passive perk" Well, it doesn't matter, take literally any other recruit that has gained passive skill points, change him to be the same two classes, change his passive, give him the weapon, donezo. Same soldier with a new paint job.
>>746591656This.
>>746591656Cly only has sex for money, or in exchange for helping her get revenge.
>>746591775I think the game would be a little better if your soldiers got tired from being repeatedly taken on missions, so you'd have to rotate themBut that would fuck with companion missions. Tela demands that you help her rescue the younglings RIGHT NOW, and insists on being present, but Tela can barely walk after being raped by stormtroopers for three missions in a row. Something has to give.
>>746591027to be fair at least it workedtrick was in a coma and they needed help, the only people who really knew about the chips and removing them at the time is rex or the bad batchit makes narrative sense is what I mean
>>746591775The re-spec really irks me more than I thought it would. At first I was like: "oh cool, I can spend my points and not worry about ideal point spending strategies, because I can just take them out again". And maybe, it would be fine if it was Hawke only. But imagine if in Xcom, if you lost any soldier, you would just always have a backup, with the exact same rolled stats and passives and dual class abilities. It would make death of a soldier completely meaningless. And part of what makes Xcom-style games great, is soldiers having uniqueness, and having to deal with losing that unique soldier. If instead of having Jae, we'd have random soldiers that could roll Jae's execute ability, and you couldn't re-roll it, that would be far more interesting.
>>746591984Yeah xcom 2 did this, to stop people from repeating their Xcom 1 mistake of only ever taking the same 4/5/6 people on missions, having 1 mega super squad, and then 24 rookies with nothing in the home base. I think both would be good, bigger roster, and more reasons to force you to swap soldiers, as well as soldiers not being able to just pick what they are. Fixed rolled class, fixed rolled second class. Roll a sharpshooter scoundrel? Score, that works great. Heavy medic? Maybe not such a great combo. But it would gurantee that you care about more about hiring actual soldiers.
How do I build Cly? I tried her out right after getting her and the pistol was really not doing it for me. Is it just a case of actually upgrading her bonds? Do I swap the pistol out for a rifle? Is she better with a repeater if she uses Adv for everything?
is this game worth playing if you liked XCOM 2?
is there actually a reason to take anyone else besides named characters?the execute is beyond broken, the jedi is a jedi and uppercut can one shot things off cliffs and refill ap
>>746592706max out her dart
>>746592706Cly shouldn't ever shoot her gun, unless you have nothing better to spend AP on.Max out her dart talent as soon as possible, and also level her electric field talent too. Deploy her together with a scout - or better yet, two scouts.Jetpack her directly into the enemy crowd, dart everyone within reach, then begin shitting lightning bolts.
>>746592740it's an easy game for redditors so don't expect much from gameplay
>>746585102Unfortunately nu wars has written itself into a corner so this is the ONLY interesting time period.And interesting is pushing it! We can only do so much media about >WE HAVE TO GO RAID THE SALT MINES SO THE SEPARATISTS STOCK VALUE DOESN'T SOAR>2 years later>OH MY GOD THE EMPIRE OWNS THE SALT MINES NOW AND THEY'RE ENSLAVING THE LOCAL GLUBBO RACELike the grounded stuff is cool when done well but we can only do it so many times.

>>746593046I gave Cly scout as a second class, so after she darts everyone, she can also also scan them to refund the advantage for the darts.
>>746592902More bond is good
>>746592740If you expect Xcom 3? No. If you are fine with a fun star wars game that has *some* Xcom elements? Yes.I repeat: if you expect xcom, you will be disappointed. This is not xcom 3, this isn't even xcom 2: star wars version. This is a Star Wars game with some of the Xcom elements, but by no means as in depth a tactical turn based game as xcom.
>>746580334you arent, I played on the hardest diffuculty and only like the last 4 missions I had enough cash to buy stuff from the black market or hire new recruits
>>746580334Recruit a money-medic, bring him on every mission, always be flush. Money-scout works too.
>a load of clones show up in my base>this radio broadcasts a woman going "This just in, Revenge of the Sith is happening right now!"Gee I wonder what's going to happen.
>>746594673The twist would be better, if they pretended to give Corvo to you as a replacement for Jae, just like BG3 pretends to give you Alfira as a companion, before stuff happens
>>746585101>>746585101well it is a fairly long game
>can’t recruit battle droidsDisappointing
Having only four units is such a dumb decision. Especially when fighting the Coil with their bullshit.
>>746595807Thank god for mods
>>746595807I think it makes sense for the game as it is. You have 4x3 AP each turn, the same total as 6x2 you get in XOM, but you also have call for backup and a bunch of extra advantage abilities. Having 6 characters would make alpha striking too easy and require (even more) hp bloat and reinforcement spam. You can make it work with interwoven turns, but then you lose some of the synergy plays you can make.Though I would have liked to see a couple missions that you were allowed to have 6 operators and were designed for it, like siege defense missions where you naturally have to split the team to cover multiple approaches.
>>746580334does this game get harder or what? I feel like I either got the "broken" squad and I'm only 16 cycles in. no downs or losses yet. only "close call" was Fathom first meet and only because I didn't understand their game + bad team comp.
>>746597323theres some difficulty spikes, but yes, the injury system is way too fucking lax and its almost impossible to lose someone its retarded
>Currently on last act of the game>Barely have any upgrades unlocked because everything is fucking expensive and the game gives you little time to grind before railroading you into the next story missionhttps://youtu.be/yfV4Ii-QPmk?is=jClHblX9UnwwJtpC

>>746599475They've compensated by making him a manlet, who is height mogged by every character in the game, especially women
>>746597497The things that are difficult, also are difficult for dumbass reasons. In Xcom/Xcom2 the difficulty came from a diverse range of strong enemies that had different rules for dealing with them. Fighting a thinman? Don't melee him, he'll burst into poison. Ayye is mind-boosting/manipulating something? Don't take out the empowered target, go for the Ayye controlling it, but be careful if you run after it you might activate extra pods. Berserker responds to attacks? Don't melee it, attack it with someone pulling it left, then attack it with someone pulling it right, leaving it as stranded as possible. Cyberdisk? Don't stack units or you'll get to know what your grenades taste like. Chryssalid map? Rescue the civilians fast, so that you don't get overrun by the fuckers, don't do it too fast, or you might get fucked in the ass by clayface. What does Zero Company have? Resonance stacks. If you kill a dude, the next dude gets empowered. Over and over again. What can you do against it? How about a big fat nothing? The only viable way to work against resonance stacks, is to take concussion nades and push abilities, and just cliff-kill every single one of those bastards, which feels cheesy as all hell. Also I swear to god, If I lose my ironman run at any point due to hawke getting pushed off a cliff by an enemy, I ain't starting a second. I'm re-downloading Xcom 2. There's probably a lightsaber mod for rangers somewhere. It'll be just as good as this.
>>746599556Not you again. What's with this strange obsession with height?
>>746599429>>746599525tel wishes hawk luck in the game sorry chuddy
>>746599657Obi Wan's truth nukes > Tel's wishcasting.
>>746599705>yeah bro just trust the guy who trained darth vader
>luke got lucky, he was being completely overpoweredOverconfidence is always the failings of the Sith
>>746599705>Obi Wan>TruthFrom the man who coined: "from a certain point of view".
>>746599657Yes, let's listen to the opinion of the Agrilcultural Corps dodger, I'm sure she has a sublime understanding of the Force.
>>746599862And where are those Jedi that doubted her now?
>>746599862she's autistic okay, just give her time>random disgraced captain and merc knows more how to work with tel and be patient with her than the jedi do
>>746599810If only instead of throwing away his lightsaber, Luke also picked up Vader's and said he's all the jedi. Then he'd defeat the Emperor and save his father.Oh well, good thing the REAL chosen one came along to finish the job and did it properly, instead of trying to aura farm from the moral high ground.
>>746600067didnt happenbut if it did, the series deserved it
>>746599475I am honestly impressed this game doesn't have a single girlboss. Every female character is likable. Even Cly is likable. How the fuck did they manage that? How did they resist the urge to have her establish dominance in the first scene?
>>746599908>And where are those Jedi that doubted her now?
>>746600382>How did they resist the urgewriters are fans of star wars instead of failed novelists that wanna push a message/agenda
>>746600397Kek
>>746599963>people who've known Tel for 20 cycles vs people who've seen how she's like since she was a kidThey called her "Scrubawan" for a reason
she is NOT a scrub
>>746600572now let's see Anakin's saber throw
>>746600067I mean it makes sense right, 2 lightsabers: twice the jedi.
>>746600572Cly would have killed them and spent less Advantage.
She was right tho
>>746600758its a crime we dont get to fuck her
>>746600758There's something I always wanted to know. So Kamino made the clones. But when the jedi arrive to Geonosis, they don't just have the clones - they have ships, walkers, weapons, the whole shebang. Clones are completely ready for war on day 1.Did Kamino also make all of that, or is this the republican technology?
>>746599963The merc has good sense to know that jedi robe+trooper armor combination is a winning strategy.
>>746600534>other jedi don't like her and don't want her as an apprentice>her master gets frustrated and wants to ditch her>anakin is told to bring her in but doesn't because the council are assholes>one of her old jedi friends betrays her because she's an inquisitor nowhey at least one good thing is that she didn't have to actually go through order 66
>>746600851no that was all subcontracted outhow the republic didnt know about a huge clone army AND the spaceships, attack craft, landing craft, tanks, and various other vehicles being made to supply said army, is indeed comical
>>746600382Runa can rub people the wrong way but I think her being hawks contrarian 2nd in command adds depth to the team. She does sometimes raise valid points and despite how she talks to hawks she sticks by the team no matter what. Also acts as a good foil to bennic who she has great banter with
>UHHHHH SHE'S RIGHT BEHIND ME ISN'T SHE?
>>746600823She obviously wants a piece of Hawkes. Cly too.
>>746600951>Runa can rub people the wrong wayI don't know how sensitive you need to be to get rubbed the wrong way by Runa.
we love our jedi bug princess
>>746601002some people are getting pissed that she used the term "military industrial complex" because its "shit writing and not star wars-y"
>>746600951It still throws me off that she has the tone of a college Marxist, but everything she says is about how the free market and libertarianism are awesome
>>746600947Imagine being George Bush on the day after 9/11, and Dick Cheney takes you aside and says there's Abrams tanks, Apaches, Blach Hawks, Chinooks, Hornets, Fighting Falcons and Tomahawks missiles just lying on the lawn in front of the White House, all in the mint state and prepared for the war in Iraq. You have never heard about any of these things even existing before.Imagine asking no questions whatsoever.
>>746601198Yeah but what make it tolerable is that Hawkes literally couldn't give less of a fuck.
>>746601002It's because her VA is shit who doesn't know how to take a breath or enunciate. She speeds through every line while mumbling, and that vocal fry is annoying as fuck
>>746601281To add onto this, a Jedi DID look into this, discovered the truth, and immediately wound up deadAnd all that came from this is Yoda rubbing his chin and gcg, "hmm weird this is....oh well"
>>746601198Have you seen girls on twitter calling her based queen, because the screenshots they've seen of the game, taken completely out of context?
>>746600628comparing a Padawan to the Hero Of the Republic and Chosen One?
>>746601198I don't think they could make a separatist in the modern day because chuds would think its liberalismlike a proper separatist, not one of those dooku loyalists we constantly see
Prequel DLC when. Want to play as young Hawkes and play the mission where he got setup to fail. Also want to see who his waifu was.
erm...bros?
>>746600067The sequels suck, but the hate for rey hate, specially after the first movie was completely overblown. "Ooh, she's too instantly good at stuff". It's been long established at that point that force people are just magicially good at shit. Young anakin was winning podraces at 5 that grown ass adult professional racers took part in. Trained combat pilots were like: "That shot's too difficult to pull off", and hobbyist pilot Luke was like: "Lol nah, I used to do shots like that for fun in my shitbox while being a farmboy". Plus the whole "But she won against Kylo Ren, a trained Jedi!!" Honestly? Most badass Kylo moment in the series. The dude was openly bleeding out from a massive wound, literally punching it to deal with the pain, and still, he was not fighting for his life with rey, he was trying to recruit her, not to kill her. SHE was fighting for her life, HE was doing recruitment. Overall, with the sequels, Rey being a shit character was a way smaller problem than everything else. Like them doing NOTHING with the Idea of Kylo idealizing his grandfathers dark side. Or straight up the biggest problem: Them not planning a story in advance, and going: "Well, figure out where this goes after we finish this movie". So the second movie goes: "Nothing from the first movie matters" and the third movie goes: "actually nothing from the second movie matters either". And then making the third movie is like 25 mini movies, that are vaguely but not really connected. It's so fucking dumb, for so many reasons. But for some reason the dumbest people on the internet only went "rey bad", when she honestly was one of the less bad things about the movies. Not great mind you, but far from bad enough to justify how vilified she was. Kinda reminds me of how Jake Lloyd got all this shit for "ruining star wars" back in the day, when he was just a pretty okay child actor. He's not the one who made George do Jar Jar poop jokes.
>>746601698before someone says "that's xcom baby",it's fixed.I reloaded the past 5 cycles multiple times trying to avoid it.You're railroaded to not having 1 of them during the battle of Luunata
>>746601698THAT’S ZCOM BABY
>>746601698People getting to this part of the game will never get old.
>>746601002I presume its just a kneejerk reaction to some of the shit she says and poor first impressions. She generally just has a critical tone in most of her dialogue and her initial dialogue is pretty abrasive but thats justifiable given the situation. Less charitably she can come across as whiny and hyper-critical throughout the game but she raises a lot of valid points about their current situation and the republic's misdeads and the harshness is more a byproduct of her dynamic with hawks where they freely criticize and tease each other. When shes not talking politics or talking shop she's a lot more affable and theres a reason she's got good banter with bennic
>>746600397Fuck me. It happened. This is the image where I couldn't tell that it was Ai generated.
>>746601698Add another one to the board boys
>>746601910I think its because a lot of people love to suck off the clones and by extension the republic due to TCWso when you have a character come along and criticise it in the here-and-now (not retroactively once the empire is formed) those people don't like it because its criticising something they like despite how legitimate it is
I didnt catch it if it happened, did Runa have any 'I told you so" moment about the fall of the republic
>>746601958well its just an edit, all that was changed was the clothes
>>746601708have you considered "Rey bad" is because her story makes no fucking sense? She's the granddaughter of Palpatine and the First Order didn't know about her. She has 0 training but somehow can force-talk with Kylo Ren, a grandson of Anakin. She does a bunch of random shit that makes no sense. Then somehow, she's the chosen one? She's far from the worst thing in the ST, but that doesn't make her good.
>>746602098I don't remember it. They skip a year immediately after order 66, so there's no time to have "I told you so" moment, really.
>>746601910>>746601002There's also the fact that she's a female character who is bossy, flippant, and makes quips. Chuds HATE that shit. I'm personally not a big fan of that character trope, it kinda sucks and is overdone, but chuds think characters like her are like, a deliberate attempt to kill white men or whatever.
>>746602234Speak for yourself, I'm a chud, and Runa makes my dick hard
She’s capable of anything because she’s so bad at everything
>>746602234as someone who hangs out with Chuds, and lurk chud discussion forums. I can assure you - they don't hate Runa.Hating bad characters is different from hating something because she's a woman.
>>746602497>I must apologize for tel-rea, she is an idiot. we purposefully trained her wrong, as a joke.
Feel bad for the qt metal bug jedi. She looks up to her master so much only for Anakin to reveal to Hawkes that her master tried to get rid of her too.
>>746602146>She's the granddaughter of Palpatine and the First Order didn't know about her.I mean, yeah part of why I said I'm mostly talking about the pushback she got after episode 7. Where none of that existed. That her backstory got progressively more retarded with: "Your parents where nobodies who sold you for booze money" to "actually your parents were Jedi on the run" to "actually you are a Palpatine" is retarded beyond belief, because CLEARLY none of that existed even vaguely when they filmed episode 7. No question. But when the max outrage against her happened, that was not yet a problem. And when it was revealed at the end, that movie had FAR bigger problems than Reys origin. Reys origin was a "that's kinda fucking dumb" cinemasins tier problem, on a laundry list of much bigger, structural problems with that movie. Like, we have basic rules of story telling and movie making that were fucked in the ass. It's a bit like totaling your car, noting all the damage, and then going: "And also it's an ugly shade of green". Brother, that sucks, but that's the least of your problems right now. You know? Also: don't get me wrong. I'm not claiming she's good. The sequels are not good. Much like the prequels, they have some individually good moments. I'm just saying that when 7 came out, people acted like Rey is like 70% of the problem with the movie, when she was like.. I dunno, 5% at that point, maybe.
>>746602234fuck off retard, im a chud and i LOVE runa AND shes a chud AND shes hot
The whole Tela discourse makes me wonder - is there any jedi in history who got killed by a B1?
>Hey Hawks, you ever notice that despite making up only 3% of the Galactic population, Transdoshans makeup over 43% of viole->Listen Runa, I've already got one of our guys telling everyone that the banks are behind the fall of the Republic I CANNOT be dealing with this right now
>>746602953At least Anakin was cool and believed in herSure hope nothing bad happens to that guy
>>746603018>he doesn't know about the legacy of jedi master "i'm gonna die"
>>746602953To be fair, he wanted to switch her to another master because she was growing a bit too attached to him since she's thirsty for a father figure. He didn't disallow training or bar her from the Jedi path
>>746603223He was kind of intimidating. Not only does he tower over Hawkes you already get the sense that Vader is already in there somewhere.
>>746602293>>746602983Always an exception for horny, I guess. >>746602530I mean, usually they hate women, and then claim that the reason they hate them is that they are bad characters. I'm honestly a bit surprised that I don't see more chud hate for zero company on /v/, because I do see a lot of shit that if it happens in other games, there are countless threads about it, calling it woke garbage. But for some reason in Zero Company the consensus seems to be "It's not that woke". As a non-chud, is it because chuds expected a disney star wars property to be like.. way way worse? So now that it's just "a bit", you're willing to overlook it? Because honestly, as a non-chud I think the game is kinda mid. Fun Star Wars stuff, not that great at being Xcom. I would have expected the chuds to blame all the things that suck, on the inclusion of woke stuff in the game.
>>746602973Okay that's fair.
>>746603434theres nothing woke about this game except vitiligo
>>746603434No, ZC is just not that Woke at all, using the Concord scale, it's roughly 0.01 to 0.015 milliConcords.See pic attached for something that tips the Conrdian alert.It's pattern recognition at this point.
>>746603695Why are they always purple?
>>746603434>I mean, usually they hate women, and then claim that the reason they hate them is that they are bad charactersFunny, from my point of view, wokies write bad characters and claim the criticism is because chuds hate women
>>746603763Trooncoded color. See Veilguard.
>>746603568>>746603695Concord was mostly woke because of shit tier character designs. For your female Hawke there are like, ZERO attractive good looking faces in the game, AND you can give the women the man faces, or put beards on the female faces etc. I would say if we're being scientific, that's like.. Half a Concord?
>>746603828You choose the ugly buttons you pressIn my reality, Hawks is a handsome gigachad
>>746603828>female HawkeWell there's the issue, It's painfully blatant this game was made with the default Male Hawke as the protag. The option to play as a woman was probably added later.
>>746603828That's player choice, you're not forced to having to play a woman with a beard. Also male options are just as bad if not worse.
>>746603398He was in a bad mood. Ashoka just left the Jedi order when Umbara happened.
Why didn't Hawks just retire and keep Runs as a concubine?
>>746603884big boss?
>>746603994that was months ago, he's "chill" in TCW S6 and 7
Is it just me, or are the glup shitto moments actually done well in this game? All the cameo characters actually do things instead of just show up for a second to aura farm.
Ngl Jae's unique skill is pretty damn convenient. She's one of my MVPs.
>>746603434>I'm honestly a bit surprised that I don't see more chud hate for zero company on /v/All of the threads I have seen have been filled with the typical tranny this, tranny that.
>>746603884Sgt Woods?
the rocket launcher may be kinda mid but damn does it have style
>>746604142Doesn't Umbara happen at the wake of the attack on the Jedi temple? There's a latest news article you can read in the 3rd person portion.
>>746603884>>746603889>>746603905>Player choiceOkay sure, but isn't it always the chuddies who complain if the choice even exists? I remember "FUCKING PRONOUNS" for it being even an option to go off the he/she. Or for gay romances in games where the romance is optional?
>>746604164i'm surprised there was restraint, I expected the obligatory ahsoka cameo
>>746604265>still ranting about chudsYou smell worse than a dianoga after dinner
>>746603884Am I the only one who gave my Hawk sideburns? Wish there was a pompadour option for hair.
>>746604164I quite liked themAnakin and Trilla were both great cameos for Tel-Rea, and Rex solved Trick's problem
>>746604254umbara was season 4, the wrong jedi arc was season 5the game takes place I wanna say during TCW S6/7 (bad batch arc) onwards
We love handsome middle aged men here
Did they ever patch the performance? I'm pretty interested in the game but I'm worried about some of the issues people have been having
>>746604515It runs differently for different people. I have a 5070 and have no issues whatsoever. Some people say their game got better after the NVIDIA driver update.
>>746603797>Funny, from my point of view, wokies write bad characters and claim the criticism is because chuds hate womenWokie here again, I guess little bit of column A, little bit of Column B. Sometimes there's problems with a game or show, and a character not being that great is part of that problem, but chuds then act like that's the thing that ruins the entire thing. Like, example: The Captain Marvel movie. People absolutely turbo hated Brie Larson on it. But really, her part was at best a minor problem, when it was just a terribly fucking written movie.
>>746604265Pronouns is a different issue since Trannies shouldn't be given a single quarter.Why the fuck are normal people cis-man/cis-woman, but a tranny must be called a man/woman instead of a trans-man/trans-woman. They/them and Xim/Xur are also retarded and never existed as personal pronouns. The fact they want it changed is atrocious. There is absolutely no circumstance where you will hear your own pronouns. Because if you're around, your name will be used. The pronoun thing is an attempt to control people when they're not around.
You literally don’t need to hire any other sniper recruits once you recruit Luco
>>746604782And you don't ned Luco either, snipers suck.
>>746604782I don't want my sniper to be inhaling concentrated spice ketamine on mission.
It really feels like Blaster Rifles are the only good weapon.
>>746604825SON
>>746604917Pistol is good for debuff and spotting.Repeater is good for assassinating.Snipers really have no place
>>746604825Make Luco a Medic Sharpshooter and tell me it doesn’t feel like there’s a guardian angel keeping your team immortal and deleting everyone on the map
>>746604515they didnt patch shit and did 0 communication since release and the game desperately needs ittons of bugs, visual glitches but also shit that affects the gameplay like overwatch being broken, enemies porting through the map or people not getting the fucking deluxe edition they paid forgame is really underbaked if you ask me, needed atleast 6 more months
>>746605008>Snipers really have no placeretaliation shots on trick
Why the fuck is the Jedi squaddie so horrible.Jedis are suppose to eat droids for breakfast. When they enter a catina the room goes silent shit.
>>746604592>given a single quarter.lmao
>>746604825scoundrel luco getting constant crits and firing multiple shots a turn via assists is broken
Overwatch is janky as fuck. Sometimes it straight up doesn't trigger even though I clearly have line of sight.
>>746605301You could just do that better with a pistol though
>>746605183shes not horrible, shes fantastic perhaps youre just bad
>>746604592>Why the fuck are normal people cis-man/cis-woman, but a tranny must be called a man/woman instead of a trans-man/trans-woman. Oh, that's a misunderstanding. In any setting where you would specifiy "cis man" you would also say "trans man". Since "cis" is to specify "not trans", Useful for like, medical stuff 'n shit. You wouldn't introduce your friends like: "Hey this is jake, he's a cis man, and this is steve, he's a man" if you have a cis and a trans friend. (I mean why would you? That would just again pull attention to the fact that one of them was trans. Something that people who are woke generally like to avoid. >They/them and Xim/Xur are also retarded and never existed as personal pronouns. I mean, half right. they/them have been used as personal pronouns, it's also not retarded, it comes pretty natural. The famous example is if you don't know someone: "Oh someone left their umbrella, can you bring it to them?" xim/xur, the "neopronouns" yeah, those are kinda stupid, and in my opinion also just like.. attention seeking behaviour. But also not really something that's really pushed for. You see a couple of them on tumblr or whatever, but even in my woke ass spaces, I don't really know people who go by "xir" or whatever. Honestly, most of the woke shit is kinda harmless. A lot of it demonized by right wing culture warriors, to be some attack to cuck you into submission or whatever. Like the lie about "Toxic masculinity". How many right wingers to this day pretend like "toxic masculinity means it's bad to be a man. Being a man is toxic according to leftists". When toxic masculinity simply refers to the Idea that some of the traits that we assume men should have to be "real men" are toxic to men themselves and people around them. Like how "don't talk about your problems, push it down and be a man" leads to increased suicide. Not that being a traditional strong man is like, inherently bad or anything.
>>746605483he has range and more damage per shot
>there are people here who actually care about star warsholy shit kys
>>746605619Hey now. there's like 2 and a half good movies! And one good series in Star Wars.
I wish some of the vanilla faces weren't cripplingly ugly like it's battletech all over again, but eh
Aurelio had styleI'll give him that
>>746605619Star Wars games were good onceAnd they can be again
>>746605732>Good star wars gamesKotor 2, Dark Forces 1 & 2.Maybe I'll give you Lego Star Wars on a nostalgia technicality. But after that, did it really?
>>746605183She starts weak, then gets better and better as the game progresses. She's also uniquely suited for eating droidekas for breakfast, because her push and pull can trigger Overwatch on your turn (you keep it on the enemy turn as well).
>>746605836>KOTOR 1 and 2>Dark Forces 1 and 2>Jedi Outcast>Jedi Academy >Galactic Battlegrounds >Galaxies>Battlefront 1 and 2 and Renegade Squadron>Empire at War >Republic Commando>Bounty Hunter>Lego Star Wars>The Clone WarsYes, Star Wars has had many fantastic games To say otherwise is extreme ignorance or extreme bad taste
>TFU Shaak Ti>ZCOM RunaMan...Star Wars vidya really has got me wanting a Tall, Amazonian, Togruta waifu to reverse mating press me
>>746605539Fair points, I disagree with they/them though, it's used for unknown not personal When the person is identified it goes to the set of normal pronouns.This is neither the place nor the thread for these discussions though, so let's agree to disagree
>>746605927This level was built for her
>>746606216Fair we can do that. Thanks for being reasonable, I hope you have a good day.
>>746606203>Tall, Amazonian, Togruta waifuwell Runa sure is built for it
>>746606179now that i think about it, kyle katarn does look a lot like default hawks...
Any tips for expert? What classes are good? What weapons better match the classes?
The Visser fight on Extreme is so retarded.>Happens after 3 fights, so you're likely handling injured>He farts every round, so your droid needs to dedicate a turn to just debuff him>Gets two free retaliates no matter what, and since it's Extreme he ain't gonna miss, even in full cover with smoke grenades>As soon as his Adds are gone, reinforcement alert>Has 400 HPI get that it's Extreme, but this is a little silly. Did I miss an ability that just shuts off retaliate? Daze, maybe?
>>746606612are you blowing up his cover?
>>746606586Assault assault assaultdont' bother with tanks or healingPump bond levels up with health and ranged damage
>>746606612There are two units exclusively made to tank damage, Anon. Just bring someone with either evasion or invulnerable and have them tank his retaliations before you buttfuck him. This game is easy.
>hk47 is mentioned as still alive Holy crap lois
>>746606612Visser killed Jae in my run, so when the game tried to make me give a shit about him I laughed.
>>746606612I took a droid, jae and clymy strategy was>destroy his cover with grenades, otherwise throw him out of cover with concussions>get him away from the other coil before you finish off each one, i'm fairly certain their buffs go to the closest coil member so you want the generics getting surges, heals etc instead of him>gunslinger ability doesnt trigger retaliate in case you want to put some shots in>cly's shock dart (not the pulse to make it deal damage) is good because it inflicts shock, which lowers his movement distance that forces him to take more actions to get to cover if you blew it up, means less shots going into you
Fucking hell, Dark Waters fucked me up. Went out with 2 injuries on 3 guys. Didnt brĂng Jae and the Stormtrooper guy because i stupidly sent them on an operation, picked the risky option and picked up 2 injuries on them, so my team balance was shit but the difficulty spike was massive.
>>746607058so my turn strat would be>droid moves into position, scans the whole area and throws a frag at him to remove his cover (or a concussion if he's behind indestructable)>I had scout on jae so she scouted the coil for move advantage points>cly moves into position, uses quickdraw for more advantage, shock darts everyone>move hawks into position, quickdraw for more advantage>cly uses the shock pulsethat way the coil are mostly dealt with and visser is now out in the open, turn 2 you can start laying into him with quickdraw and shock darts/pulse
Why didn’t Vader slime Trilla after failing to take out a padawan who’s canonically retarded?
>>746606771Why is assault so good?
Not a fan of how every fucking encounter has infinite reinforcements.
>>746607483because he met her and hawks said shes badass, and clearly proved it
>>746607483because she successfully took out all the other jedi
Trilla deserved better. She was pretty hot for a pajeeta and that's actually an accomplishment. Should've turned to the light side and become Cal's waifu instead that blue chick.
>>746607780she's dominican
>>746588714https://www.nexusmods.com/starwarszerocompany/mods/88?tab=posts
>>746607938does aurelio come dead
That trilla fight was bullshit. Saw the ledge thought oh i can force push her off it. Then found out it counts as a wall. Do the whole fight just so she can fall off it in a cutscene.
>>746608041>he didnt beat her before the turn limitlol!
>>746608040>Where is Aurelio>Is he safe
>>746607938I'm pleasantly surprised how active the mod community is already. And not just model swaps, but gameplay changes and even a duo-subtitle mod for people who want to learn another language.
>>746607691Yeah but Vader kills people over any mild inconvenience
be honest, did you clap when she showed up?
>>746608108I don’t think you can. I tried and her health bar just stopped moving once I got it halfway down
>>746608875see >>746586025if you get her to 25% health the game will give you a success stateits possible but her defense gets so high that blasters deal 0 damage
>How it felt to have Hawkes use Bull Rush on Trilla when she was about to execute Telhttps://youtu.be/FHuD5y-PZM0?is=jNuhuF5iY5b_O9OC
>>746607483She decided to not put this part into her report
>>746607058>>746607346My setup was the same by coincidence. But this was an insanely close fight. Jae finished him off by just gunning his ass down mafia style.But holy shit, EVERYONE but the droid was Injury 2.
I could have fixed her
>>746609970
>>746600067coked up buttsex with Rey
>>746609623I've had Jae execute the final boss in the back of the head. Honestly felt appropriate after the whole playthrough of extensively using her
>>746608769i had no clue who the fuck she is
>>746585632You fucked this up. You should've not talked to the Jedi and the snakeman on the same fucking day, you should've staggered them and then you'd be fine.
Anyone tried making a roster of KOTOR characters in the goon creator?
How do I make expert mode my bitch
>>746580334I was really excited for this game until I learned the maps are very rigid and predesigned. My favorite thing in tactics games is the dynamic nature of encounters and permadeath stakes with troops. So does anyone know if either of the xcom remake games have a good star wars mod or something? I've been playing UFO Defense but its not scratching quite the right itch
>>746610583XCOM2 has a wide arrangement of Star Wars mods, and several mod collections you can probably just copy on steam. Models, weapons, voices, swapping ADVENT for the empire, playable commando droids, it's all there. The one jedi class I've played I didn't like very much, it looks like shit, and the lightning effect is laughably bad.
DO NOT REDEEM
>nearing the end of the gamedamn bros it was long but felt short, wish it had more
>>746611061isnt she asian?>back my play, baby
>>746607780>blue chickDafuq? Is your monitor colour way off?
>your dumbass squad will path through fire but enemies never docool
>hawks pulling out his telescope just to stare at something 5ft awayis he autistic
>>746611061
>>746610359I'm gonna reload because I let my Hawks get damaged so I skipped doing Tel's mission just so I could heal him up. Honestly feels like bullshit I should just deal with but I don't know how assrapey the commander's getting resonance will be.
How do we feel about evil jeeta?kinda cute desu
jedi girl sucks. melee range is worst range>get isolated running ahead and trying to get a saber hit or two in>lose all harmony in the process of attacking>now get lit up like a christmas tree because deflect is now incredibly low>completely useless at defending against melee units (???)
>>746611195where do you think india is
>>746612036outer rim
>>746612007just give her the +8hp/turn power and shes unstoppable whats the fucking problem
>>746611461You don’t want a death stick
Cant i theoretically farm bond by not ending missions and giving back up to one another?
>>746580334Just started. Any tips? Just got the droid bay unlocked. I assume there are missions im just going to plain not have time to finish? Any specific resource that I should prioritize over others? Influence maybe?Using the PC, Trick, the republic chick and a blast scoundrel I hired as a merc. How big to parties get? Is it worth having multiple support units? My PC is a scout and feels a little redundant with the astromech. Kind of thinking on getting a sniper or something.
>>746612082lmao are you retarded? she takes way more than 8 hp a turn
>>746612347skill issue then, you can put her behind cover yknow
>>746611450It's more of a camcorder than a magnifying scope
So, what's the most OP class combo and why?
>>746612539if you include uniques, mando/scoutotherwise scoundrel/scout
>>746612345Save intel for story operations/character operationsunless youre really struggling dont upgrade the med bay parties max at 4
>>746612007Just spend your AP pushing shit. It doesn't have to be about yeeting them into pits, shoving them out of cover is also really useful. Save your harmony for when a melee dude runs into your mosh pit and you can delete him with your lightsaber.
>>746612345Do companions as soon as they pop up else you will fall into some conflict traps. Droids are OPSave your envoys for when you when you fully upgrade the facility that makes them worth +10 influence.
>watch zero company youtube video>gives some pretty useful tips on what to upgrade that I agree with>goes to the weapon upgrades>"Don't touch individual weapon upgrades, most units in zero company use different weapon types" >you're only buffing one, maybe 2 guys on your team, unless you're running some hyper specific unbalanced composition, where multiple people share the same weapon, it's widely inefficientWhat fucking alternate universe does this fag live in, where the entire universe ain't running the same god damn rifle? If anything zero company is: "Everyone runs rifle, with minor exceptions".
>>746612007She starts shit and that's for story reasons. Her backstory is that she was the most retarded Jedi at the temple. She gets very good later when you get force pull and the better meditations. Force pull + 2 lightsaber lights+saber throw is a very powerful turn.
How are these people gonna cope about this one?https://youtu.be/7KhGc5-P2xo?is=UTch9BiOECYkbfBV
>>746613102>>746612007Oh, and don't kamikazee her behind enemy lines. Focus on just using force push and blocking at first. Keep in mind her blocking skill blocks everything behind her also, so if you line your team up behind her, she will deflect people shooting at them as well as her. Then use her to lightsaber fight melee guys who run up on you.
Does Fem Hawk still have an ex-wife, or is it an ex-husband?
>Unlock more den upgrade slots>Hey, now you can run TWO upgrades at the same time!Bro, I can't afford the singular upgrades I want, the fuck makes you think I can spring for 2, let alone 3 at a time??Who playtested this?
what are the odds we ever get a war of the chosen tier dlc/expansion
>how are people gonna co-Wait a minute, I'm white!>goes back to playing the game
>>746613253That's one of the best Den upgrades. You will get showered with top tier utilities from missions and reputation later.
>>746613331Hu?
>>746613331bot post?
>>746613264While I think we will likely see a small content update (career mode, story maps repurposed for generic missions), I do not think we will get a big expansion with new classes and story content. If Bit Reactor is smart, they would already have their next game lined up in pre-development and waiting to switch their team over to it now that ZCOM is ramping down.
>>746613331small language model
>training the LLM by telling it it's noticeably AIare you guys retarded?
>>746613771:)>>746613264Id say decently, this game is making headlines for how good its doing and how its the best star wars game in ages
>>746613331Good morning sir
>>746613264games don't do those anymore
Bro I can't bring myself to bring anything but the core story members. Their special passives are all so good, it makes you wonder why the fuck you would bother with no name? Yeah credit and intel bonus, cool. I'd rather take lady execute a jedi or mando.
>full crew shotneat
>>746614016Truly they were a STAR WARS™ Zero Company™
meaty mando ass
r8
why the fuck do you even bother with hiring people.the games is throwing operators at me from the story and you can only bring 4 at a time anyway.battle scale is just too small.Also is are snipers just trash? Sure they have good overwatch, but the damage is lackluster and they do nothing besides shoot.
imagine being Dee Bradley Baker and getting like 80% of the voice work any time they do anything set during the Clone Wars
>>746614360There really should have been some sort of fatigue system that forced you to rotate guys at the very least.
>>746613264AAA development is having crisis so even with moderate success, the future is uncertain. Also need to see what the mouse wants to do now with the IP. There's a new CEO, Kennedy and Iger are gone.
Is money useful for anything besides buying on the black market and upgrading the den?
>>746614598>First Light comes out>Everyone loves it and wants another>Amazon almost immediately says "uh yeah we're not working with IO anymore that was a preexisting partnership they had" and pisses everyone off
>>746614360>>746614569>Hire people who worked on xcom>employ literally none of the things learned from 2 xcom games with 1 expansion each.
>>746614261>Using Disney/EA fanfics instead of kino custom operatorsEh
>>746614639often used in operations
>>746614639Some operations require you to spend money. Try to keep at least $1500 on hand in case.
>>746614683First Light was a dogshit game and I hope IOI shuts down.
>>746614772I'll recruit more of them to fill the background of my base once I get all the base upgrades.
>>746614639oh yeah and using the medbay costs 600 credits for each guy
>>746614598Disney should just take Star Wars vidya only for awhile. The Disney era Star Wars games have been way better received than their films and shows, other than Andor.
>>746614683First Light was kino
Did you guys change Jae's class? I love the 20 free damage from executes each round, but I'm not sure assault is where she really shines. Although it has a first move buff, which helps bringing her into position for the execute.
I'm pissed EA rushed this out the door, it feels so unfinished. Half the cutscenes just randomly start or end, the game feels really short, and lots of weird bugs and just general jank too. I hope it gets a sequel because it feels like one of those games where the sequel feels like the 1.0 complete version. That would be fine if it didn't take 7 years to make a game these days.
>>746614958Which segment of following yellow paint was your favorite?
>>746615006>EA rushed itYeah this was totally gonna compete with GTA 6
>>746615035Probably the first full mission during the chess tournament since it simultaneously felt the most like a Hitman™ mission and a Bond movie experience with the chase in an exotic car and skydiving out of a cargo plane
>>746614997Scout. Scouts get free advantage for kills. Every time she executes, you get advantage.I started shitting out special abilities like no tommorow as soon as I did this.
>>746615165It's a mission where you walk down a single corridor that's disguised as open area. There's nothing open about it.
>>746615274ok
>>746614997Its fine, but changing their classes isnt a bad idea. Trick is basically unstoppable with his built in autorevive as a heavy for example.
>>746615184Hmm my hawks is scout. But I can see your vision. Maybe if I swap my hawks to something else..
>>746615165Its has literally nothing in common with Hitman. How do people make the comparison with a straight face?
>>746585726Wouldn't pistol still be good for gunslinger because the Onslaught passive gives +1 damage per main blaster shot? With a pistol you'll do 3 bonus damage total (1 from shot 2, and 2 from shot 3), while with with a rifle you only gain 1 bonus damage. (more of course if scout and astromech pump AP into the Gunslinger. You would have to be okay with pumping all into one soldier, but you might do up 6 shots on a regular basis. Sometimes more. The problem is chance to hit. You really need to figure out accuracy chance on pistol.
>>746615035Show me one screenshot of yellow paint
>>746615274>>746615396
>>746615293I genuinely feel like all starting companions have a much better, obvious option that just synergizes so much better with their special ability. Heavy is obvious for Trick, Scout is obvious for Jae, Soldier is obvious for Kabb.The only non-special standout is the domehead, although I could see an argument for his special being useful on pretty much anything.
>>746615662Pistol unironically only works with Sharpshooter.
>>746615978this might be intentional design to make the player want to mess with respeccing
>>746614958It was okay but they just abandoned it, that new mission is nowhere to be seen and it never even got a ng+ mode. Tacsim is fun for like an hour or two but is a ridiculous slog. I regret buying it since it got cracked relatively quickly. At this point I'm just done buying games on release
>>746585637dust juice is slang for pcp kek
>>746616145Why would that game even need a ng+ mode
I'm normally pretty resiliant to Star Wars naming things. Can't have a toilet, gotta have a "refresher" etc. But fuck me, I nearly closed the game when these fuckers said "chance cubes". That's so fucking dumb. Kill me.
>>746616405wanna buy some chance cubes
>>746599494>that pathetic gachi stache>ocelotGet out of here

>Finally decide to give Cly a shot>Misses two 80% shots back to back Mandaloriboos BTFO once again. Thank god Revan put these hacks in their place.
