Linking the exe through steam (beyond the default link) should be fairly trivial and solve the issue, right? Even if it's a bit inconvenient.

If it makes you feel any better I'm stuck in bed with pneumonia unable to properly sleep for the better part of the week because of all the congestion in my face, which would probably prevent me from getting much enjoyment out of W2 even if I had the mental wherewithal to make enough disk space for the installation.

Dissapointed Owl posted:That's pretty good right? For a game whose production had already been funded and with so many extra copies of the game in the wild? Don't know how good that is, but it should translate into around 25k sales. e:Though I guess the math gets tricky if that counts the $60 beta.

Just jumping in for trouble shooting, sorry if this was just asked. Is there a fix for one of the squad portraits changing into that of another? Also is the mouse cursor supposed to move when pressing the RMB to change camera angle?

Funnypost Collabo posted:You can edit a character's portrait in the .xml file in the save directory under /documents/my games/wasteland 2/ Thanks, but it looks like the portrait no longer exists (they were all screenshots). I checked in the "Custom Portraits" folder - they're all there save for one (one actually has two, though not the one that's being duplicated). However, I exported the character sheets when putting them together, so I can probably make a new screenshot portrait w/o much issue. E:yup, it worked.

Aberforth was back following my party as soon as I entered a new map - now without the devil's eye bonus - after a gruesome death in a random encounter. Goat haunting or a bug?

Do you lose Angela somewhere down the road? She's been a powerhouse to the point of feeling like cheating. I'm trying to decide whether to give my dedicated shotgunner AR or energy weapons training. With Angela I already have 2 AR squad members, but like I said I'm afraid of eventually losing her. I already have one member focusing on EWs.

Not sure why my surgeon lock picker with the highest charisma in my party is at least a level behind everyone else. I guess she died once or twice in a few big engagements but I don't think that affects xp gain. Are armors worthwhile investments? I'm not really clear on how armor penetration works in this game.

Huh Katy recognizes her brother is dead after the fight w/ pitbull, but her response when you interact w/ her doesn't. Also: don't put your two surgeons under the same line of fire.

365 Nog Hogger posted:Thus far, pretty much. It's a shame that fallout tactics was better at combat, too. Much better. This doesn't even have sneaking. The Rail Nomads feel the least like a straight forward combat dungeon w/ some locked containers along the way, so far. Hopefully there's more of that down the road.

As many (many) faults as the game has, I'm not going to deny it's pulled me in good. Turns out crpgs make for good games, even the mediocre ones.

I'm hoping for a complete reworking of the attribute and skill system when modding gets started. Of course a lot of the problems are inherent to the design of the game. You can't easily mod away the fact that half of the non combat skills are just lock picking w/ a fancy label 90% of the time. Chunnel was saying it's a questionable callback to 90s design, but this is miles behind any classic RPG of that era I can think of.

Verviticus posted:rockets are skill-independent, along with grenades. I don't get this decision. The combat skills are incredibly granulated, but for some reason these come free. Rocket launchers as HW would at least give a little bit more incentive to try them out.

Verviticus posted:rocket launchers are actually kinda poo poo because they dont have good armor pen except the RPG so eventually a 150 damage rocket will do like 60 or whatever. grenades are literally better than most of the rockets by california all the more reason to dump them with heavy weapons...

The mysterious stranger does the same thing.

Lugubrious! posted:I'm feeling the same way, though I'm still enjoying my play through. My biggest beef though is the tone and art direction - They didn't really capture the campy comic book charm of the original, everything looks so drab and there's been no standout characters thus far. I think Fallout was still a better homage to the original than the official sequel is... I agree but I'm mostly let down by the design issues, because those shouldn't be as hampered by a low budget. I can understand uninspired art direction (much of it is crowd sourced) in a ~4 million dollar project. Awful mechanics (like 5 flavors of lock picking, all w/ random failure checks) less so. I don't think the writing has been stellar either. It's really not fair to blame the genre, though - these are faults of the game. That said, I'm happy the game exists, and although I'm a fair bit disappointed I don't regret backing it at all.

lordfrikk posted:Somehow the number got omitted in my original post. Yeah, I have it at 10 and level 10 should be at 60%. I assume they added higher levels (the percentage would probably be appropriate for level 12 safe) but then it doesn't make any loving sense to have the skill capped at 10. I could've done without any RNG based skill checks, personally.
