FWIW i turned AA down to FXAA and it's around 60 fps now from like 30-40, cutscenes seem to be locked at 30fps (why) edit: it's still pretty inconsistent and poo poo tho, stuttering all over

NoEyedSquareGuy posted:For those able to play and experiencing bad framerates, is it the result of the game being really graphically demanding or is it just poorly optimized? Bad optimization. I'm running with SLI 980s and equivalent rest of the computer which is idiot-level hardware for rich manbabies and it still pisses and moans.

Is there a list that exposes all the skills in the soldiers skill tree? Having these hidden so you can't plan is a really stupid design decision that i'm kinda surprised is still in the game after LW.

oh my loving god this terror mission has a CINEMATIC CAMERA DESIGN where it constantly wobbles in random directions causing my mouse cursor to go all over the place and sending soldiers to locations out of cover or dashing them, i'm literally sitting here laughing in despair over how something like this makes it into a AAA title made by a experienced games studio iiidiiiooottts

Bleh, doing a LW playthrough before the XCOM2 release was a really dumb idea in hindsight. I find myself just getting annoyed with the game and a little bit bored. A really really REALLY dumb idea.

Hahhaha, i just activated a pod from stealth by grenading them while my sniper used Kill Zone to cover the area and enhanced reactionfire every drat alien. The game just stuttered pathetically and then everyone fell over dead in unison.

Pork Pie Hat posted:I'm really, really tempted by XCOM2, but I always played the first game very slowly and cautiously. Some of the things I've read about the new game's turn limits has me concerned that I'm just going to suck horribly/not enjoy it as much. Am I wrong? I hate timed missions too in most games, with a loving fiery passion. But FWIW on "normal difficulty", the timelimit is just perfect for me. Long enough to set up some semi elaborate plans, but not so long that i can turtle across the map. Then every now and again you get some missions without timelimits where you can do whatever. As i said i hate timed mission gimmics, but so far i have never thought "i wish this loving timelimit wasnt there", but more like "this timelimit is kinda okay, makes me play different and hasnt worn out its welcome yet".

Elliotw2 posted:The number it shows is how many actions they lost, so Stun 1 means they lost half a turn, Stun 4 means they lost two. There's no number, just a swirly circle icon under their health. edit: unless you mean the number that popped up when she hit him? i missed that and it was only there for a few seconds

Heads up people that are installing mods, if you disable a mod you cannot load a save that had it enabled. What mods you install you are stuck with for the entire playthrough, it's really lovely and pretty much the exact opposite of every game i have ever modded.

VDay posted:It's like that in a shitload of games and makes sense? I have never modded a game and had uninstalling a mod flat out render the savegame unavailable. If you are extremely poo poo at modding Skyrim you can brick your save, but not have it flat out be unavailable by design in a game touted to be mod friendly lol, give me a break. Yardbomb posted:Also have fun if a mod ever changes it's name, some people are saying that free camera rotation mod has pretty much borked a buncha saves now because the mod name was changed some, so trying to load a save that's running off the old name or something causes it to just have a fit and refuse. Yeah, i had my savegames be unusable for a few minutes cause of that, but i think the OP changed the name back.

SpookyLizard posted:You mean unlike the TES/Fallout games by Bethesda, AKA the most moddable games? Because while some of them are okay with taking mods out, it can result ina pile of bugs and Skyrim loving hates you and your entire family if you try to load a save without all the ms enabled. Even hilariously anti-mod poo poo like the Frostbite engine (Dragon Age Inquisition) is okay with disabling mods. Don't forget that this game hyped up the modding and being designed for mods almost from the start and then when it's released it turns out that if you change your mind about a mod you have to give up your save, it's hilarious to me that people are trying to defend this haha

The Iron Rose posted:yeah it's super lovely. Fortunately you should be able to simply delete the files inside the mod while still technically "loading" it, for stuff like the free camera mod or various .ini edits. Not sure how that'd work for more advanced stuff however. Well, that's indicative of that the barrier that makes your savegames unavaliable can be disabled at least, but who knows what havok it wrecks on the savegame.

Can you guys help me get better at skulljacking? I gather the techies should be doing it, but i'm having trouble with A: closing the distance without getting shot since techies aren't that speedy and B: figuring out which targets can be skulljacked (i already did the advent leader one, used a ranger with a SMG back then). Heelp.

Ok, so Skulljacking again. I have this Skulljack melee ability and the Skullmine ability. I have Skulljacked a Advent Commander ages ago and i can no longer Skulljack them, but the ability still remains so i guess i can Skulljack something else? Or is the skill just a leftover now?

Really starting to enjoy it now, but some things need to be changed/modded for my personal preference: Bit higher chance to hit in the early game Flashbangs seem to be almost useless in my experience, need to try to bring them closer to XCOM1:LW flashbangs Elerium Cores or whatever they were called need to drop more OR the development of things like grenades, heavy weapons and etc needs to be not random, but chosen Pointblank melee range shots need bigger chance to hit Can probably fix most of these things myself by ini-diving after this first campaign. Other than that i'm really hopefully for general convenience mods and mods that give the tactical gameplay some more depth. If JohnnyLump or whatever he was called can release a whole bunch of modular mods to bring it closer to LW, but with the option to not have it tedious that would be great.

LordNat posted:Disoriented disables the use of and and active special abilities, that counts clone, teleport, Psi Zombies, Mind Control, that charge attacks Lances can use, etc. That's interesting, wish that information was a bit more obvious ingame, if it's written anywhere I've missed it the almost entire game. I just want flashed enemies to hit my troops a lot less.

Doctor Schnabel posted:Any good advice floating around on how to fill up the ant farm on the Avenger? With what? You can hire rookies inside the avenger in a menu somewhere, this took me 50% of the game to find out. You also get them from missions. Engineers and Scientists you can get from missions or hire them from the black market/resistance HQ.

You can zoom out with G and err T i think, that combined with angling the camera has let me see every LOS indicator so far, but it's been finicky sometimes.
