    Xenonauts - Legit remake of the original XCom

    And a fair amount of stuff was stripped out or redesigned. I mean granted psychic/molecular control was absurdly overpowered in the originals, and borderline useless in EU2012, but stripping it out entirely really takes a lot of fun out of the game. While I support Xenonauts, Gorestabb you...

    Xenonauts - Legit remake of the original XCom

    Riot shields and sniper rifles. Sniper Rifles are ok, since you don't have unlimited range with every weapon like you did in the originals, but most of the maps are pretty small with LoS obstructions everywhere, so you don't want more than 1. Basically, since you can't manufacture for profit...

    Xenonauts - Legit remake of the original XCom

    Yes, there's a riot shield. I'm not convinced it's very good. It has limited HPs, so it can only absorb a couple shots. You can eventually research a more durable one, but after using them a bit, I'm not convinced it would be very good even if they were indestructible. Half the time you take...

    You can give it a whirl with beta 9, just stay away from the Not So Long War second wave option, it badly needs rebalanced. Beta 10 is soon, but they don't give I'm being a bit overly critical because I flubbed a playthrough and don't really want to start a new one. It's still a good game to...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It's also possible she thinks you were trying to provoke a jealous response by mentioning your ex (what kind of idiot does that anyway) and then you basically shut her down when she acted jealous. Regardless of whether she's crazy or not, this can really be traced back to how dumb it was to...

    Xenonauts - Legit remake of the original XCom

    I already answered the multiple base question. You won't have the funds and supplies to make gear for a second team of recruits, so at best they'll be equipped with the hand-me-downs left over from gearing your primary squad. Yes, Xenonauts has base defense, although apparently it's a pretty...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    I'm not really sure what happened there. My point was more reinforcing that no matter how you look at it, geologically or by convention, Australia is a continent and Greenland isn't. I guess I was supposed to be replying to Little Penix and not you? I dunno.

    Well, it's pretty bland and restrictive compared to the originals. Also, the fucked up way funding works in this one, your #1 priority has to be building two more interceptor bases as soon as you can muster the funds, or else you'll take too much funding damage and shit will just snowball until...

    Rory is high ranked, just won against another high ranked fighter, and Lawler is already scheduled against Brown. Unless Hendricks is taking a really long vacation, Rory is getting the next shot.

    Woodley is just too big for Welterweight, and I bet he's too small for middleweight. He just doesn't have the gas tank to stay in a fight against someone he can't dominate.

    I actually assumed they changed the jeeps because it was a pointless and dumb aspect of the legendary. If they changed it because people were having trouble FINDING the jeeps there is no facepalm pic that adequately describes it.

    Yes, he ruined Hellgate London, Champions Online, and Star Trek Online whereas Brad only ruined Vanguard. But yeah the fact that the industry will still hire fuckups like Roper over and over again suggests that something must be seriously fucked up for Brad to be so incapable of finding a job.

    Well if you very carefully manage your alloys and alenium, you don't need to do every ground mission. I tend to only do 1 or 2 per wave, anything more than that and I get mission fatigue pretty bad and just save quit til later. They recently upped the value of airstriking a crash site too to...

    The answer, if there needs to be one, is a very slight change to Leeroy, or a nerf to the enablers. Personally, I like just making Leeroy unable to be targeted by spells and hero abilities. Miracle would end as a deck, handlock would probably switch to arcane golem, and leeroy is still a strong...

    My suggestion would be to not dumpster him like what happened to Tinkmaster. Making him a 7/2 for 5 would probably break the back of miracle rogue, would nerf the double leeroy combo in handlock to 14 damage (same as force/roar).
