Jade Star posted:Dont worry about it if you already submitted it. I too ran into the problem of not being able to delete a nickname entry. I hadn't considered you were exporting a premade soldier that had already been ranked up through gameplay and thus already had a nickname. That sounds about accurate.

Jade Star posted:For those of you wondering about the character pool, as of this post i am 71 entries in and i swear that 50% of you picked the laid back attitude. and about 40% of you picked twitchy. So i am concluding that goons are either too lazy to worry about anything, or anxious as gently caress about everything. Well I was thinking either Intense or Twitchy, which one is more appropriate for a "could snap and go Joker at any minute"? Because that's what I was building the character based off. If Twitchy works than keep it but if one of the other personalities is better suited for that then feel free to change it

If I recall correctly getting shaken automatically switches the attitude to tiwtchy.

Don't you dare make me not twitchy. You gotta stay on your toes, man. Just roleplay the resistance as being a bunch of stoners and meth junkies.

Eh. I submitted an Italian soldier. I figure not even an alien invasion can make the Italians take war seriously.

I used laid back because that's the only way my dude would hold his gun away from his chest so I could properly assess his outfit. Also I think it's hard luck soldiers that say "I hope you know what you're doing" constantly when I move them? Of course I know what I'm doing. Don't ever question the Commander, jerk. Whoops look out for that muton pod I activated on the last move of my turn!

I was a star soldier in the LP of XCOM: Apoc. And a reasonable officer in Professor Booty's LP of Long War. I'm hoping Doctor Gridlocked manages to be useful in XCOM 2 for Jade.

ZiegeDame posted:I'm starting to worry that my ridiculous soldier is going to be one of the more reasonably dressed. We're going for realism here. The effectiveness of starting armour is accurately depicted by the half-naked outfits from Anarchy's Children, and the hugely popular "Twitchy" attitude is appropriate for a squad that is likely to chain-panic the moment somebody stubs their toe.

Not just that, but XCOM/the resistance is scraping the bottom of the barrel at this point and can't afford to be too picky. A lot of the soldiers' background blurb in-game make a point of mentioning this. So what if the only people willing to fight to the death for the cause want to dress up in biker leather and are using half the weapons budget on hair gel? That freaky Mad Max cosplayer might be all that stands between humanity and destruction! Besides, it's urban camouflage. Not even the aliens take cosplayers seriously.

Ahhh and here I see this post right after I sent in my application requesting Twitchy just because that sounded amusing to me. Go ahead and change mine to Happy-Go-Lucky if you want some variety because that also sounds pretty hilarious for a soldier.

Yeah, I don't really understand what impact the different attitudes have so I just went with laid back for want of making a decision, it's definitely open to be changed.

It changes your soldier's default stance, personality, and some voice clips.

With Anarchy's Children installed I like to think XCOM recruitment now consists of Bradford going to shady bars and back alleys and shouting "WHO WANTS A GUN".
