Yeah I'm gonna wait till summer to play this game lol.

You guys enjoy! I'll be back in this thread later.

i'm a gigantic xcom fanatic. but i feel like i might as well just wait. i mean i expected bugs but some of these bugs are things that used to happen back in the previous game, wtf.

whatever the case, being forced to restart my game after a mission ends is a non-starter for me.

Managed to get a good session in. The new stuff is pretty damn neat. However I've noticed some really funny business with being able to shoot things that should technically be out of sight.

The memory leaks and performance issues are really noticeable though.

I actually went through the tutorial in case it had some new info to xcom players, but just a waste of time. There were some pretty heavy lags as it went through showing where to go and then giving control back, along with starting turns. The info box that came up on my ranger said you just had to click on the enemy for movement to use slash but when I did that she just ran next to it and I had to pick slash on her 2nd action, is that how it works for other people (I was under the impression it was a move/attack in one action)? And them throwing reanimation at you in the very first mission with your nooby team, lol.

**Jamison** · 2016-02-05 11:29

If I remember correctly for slash you hover over an adjacent square then mouse into the enemy (so it knows what direction you are attacking from) and then it goes.

**kisada** · 2016-02-05 14:51

yeah basically you hover on a dude then slightly move it to the side you want to slash/end up on. it's a little awkward.

**Krandor** · 2016-02-05 14:54

At least from what I've seen its generally smart enough to put you into a position that provides cover without needing additional guidance. That said I'm generally not using it unless I'm sure to wipe the floor with everything in sight.

**kisada** · 2016-02-05 15:18

it is really weird having just finished EW i/i run and not knowing what the difficulty level actually is right now in this brand new game.

**kisada** · 2016-02-05 15:57

anyone figure out any performance fixes yet? it's not unplayable but damn it can be pretty rough.

**Andalusian girls** · 2016-02-05 16:10

not having anywhere near the performance issues some of you dudes are having (no crashes or black screens yet) but this has been helpful for boosting FPS and making the slowdowns less frequent and less jittery

**Krandor** · 2016-02-05 16:20

Holy shit the Codex mob is no joke.

Edit : also the game running below normal only happens when you alt tab out, otherwise it runs normally.

yeah i need that shit. thanks

btw maybe it's just cause i'm a brand new scrub but i can't even comprehend how i'm gonna beat this legendary lol.

**kisada** · 2016-02-05 17:55

some of those changes were incredible. recommend to everyone to take a look. my game actually plays much closer to the way it should.

**Purrrfect** · 2016-02-05 18:22

I don't know if it's something about this game or win10 or nvidia drivers, but playing it fullscreen on monitor 1 w/o the mouse bound to the window lets me go to another monitor and do stuff w/o the game minimizing, just like how borderless windowed works (but it will minimize if I do something else on the same monitor the game is on). That is pretty awesome since my main annoyance of fullscreen is the up/down of the game when doing something else.

This game is legitimately quite a bit harder then the last one. Though the difficulty curve drops more dramatically as you level/gear up imo.

That said fuck Codex, that mob is complete bullshit.

Was looking some other stuff up about the game and came across console commands, if anyone is interested in getting down and dirty.

# obviously meaning whatever number you want

giveengineer #
givescientist #
giveresource supplies # (Possible resources - supplies, alienalloy, eleriumdust, weaponfragment, Intel)
ToggleGodMode

-allowconsole in Launch options to enable console, ~ to open
