      The original Long War mod is the #1 reason I've never bought XCOM 2. For me, XCOM 1 + Long War is literally the perfect strategy game.

    I'm into long war 2 for a year now, it's a great and engaging game, but it's been looooooooong! good thing is that you develop an attachment for your characters and the death of one is an epic moment.

    i do agree on the fact that it is not possible to complete, but mainly its because you dont know when or why you lose.
    I have played Long War 2 3 times, well first time i stopped because i changed some of those settings like not created equaly and lowered the difficulty (i just dont enjoy playing on higer difficulty, and if im not ejoying it, why the hell am i playing it) but other 2 times i lost because the avatar project (i think) was copleted. There is no indicator of that whatsoever, and in my opinion it really hurts the gameplay. I dont know am i supposed to rush it or im fine on time.
    Especially in my last game where i lost it made no freaking sense why i lost. If you have played vanilla XCOM2 you know that when avatar project has all the points it starts a coundown (30 days i think) and if in that time you do some mission or destroy a facility you take away a point and the coundown is canceled. Well before i lost like 5 days ago (in game) i completed the alien portal mission, so that would have taken away a point right?
    Sorry if this seems like some angry rant of mine, just wanted to share my toughts

    the biggest problem that i had with xcom2 was its stupid timed missions.After hearing about this mod i thought i might give it a try.But now i realize that the game is gonna be like total war series ..nah no thankx.side note:i hate developers for making those timed missions.It took awy the tactical approach that the game had.

    • @ragemonkey117

      It makes sense from a real world perspective. A guerilla force can only sustain combat for so long before reinforcements come over and destroy them.

    • @kionashi
      @kionashi 5 лет назад +5

      actually is better for the tactical approach to have timers. Forcing you to move foward and taking risks will prevent people from exploiting the same super safe tactic over and over and over again....

    Does it make Xcom 2 harder? ...I wouldn't mind a mod that makes Xcom2 just a little bit easier. It seems a little too hard for me. Slightly easier than the easiest difficulty (which I still get my ass handed to me on) would be great. If anyone knows a mod that just lowers the difficulty (not cheat mods) please let me know.

    • @eagleclaws1781
      @eagleclaws1781 4 года назад

      Else you could try to figure Out how the Comfigs Work, that way you could have Armor in your soldiers by Default or increase their Aim/Will/HP which will make the tactical Gameplay more forgiving and easier
      And for the configs themselv you only need the a txt Editor, tho I prefer Something Like Notepad++
