XCOM 2 - Avenger Defense Gameplay - SAVE THE AVENGER - Preview Gameplay [Legend]

[@jamesmcd4381]

I can't tell you the number of times I thought, "Damn, he's screwed." Over and over. This looked like a brutal mission. I can't wait for my turn.

[@ryomasjibeng8343]

+James McD legend is brutal in xcom2 so yeah, he is playing brutal here

[@Zer0SumGame]

>Beagle in blue armour LIVE FREE IN THE NC!

[@TheGamegurusChannel]

FOR THA CONGLOMERATE

[@NeoMiles74]

>Beagle in close range. CLOSE RANGE?!!

[@Gorb2TheGorbening]

+AnAutisticTeen XCOM - NC Advent - TR Aliens - VS Your best is my worst

[@muldoone6920]

Ah.. real cute.. wanna try again?

[@sonnytapman]

Yes! Now I need to ask: is there a cruise liner of Chrysalids? Because if so, then Bradford jinxed us all during Newfoundland.

[@sonnytapman]

+DirkAustin you're joking right? Newfoundland was my absolute favorite mission and one of the best in all of XCOM!

[@alex-qy4bl]

+DirkAustin LOL, nobody even got injured when I did Newfoundland. It's an awesome xp farm.

[@Unordinal]

+AleӿX With the new Chryssalids I feel that any mission similar to Site Recon will be very, very dangerous.

[@sonnytapman]

***** But the mission should be a cruise liner, cause Bradford said something like "Thank goodness it wasn't a cruise liner."

[@alex-qy4bl]

sonnytapman With like 500 zombies... and a chyrssalid dining and pool party? nope nope nope, X-COM is screwed

[@DantheAuthor]

Such high quality in your edits, how have I not heard of you before?! Subscribed - saw some of your other videos and fantastic work.

[@ChristopherOdd]

+Dan Author Thanks for the kind words...

[@MihaiPetrescu87]

+Dan Author I know the feeling. Same here, subscribed :)

[@AtypicalWarrior]

+ChristopherOdd how did you get your hands on Xcom 2

[@brandonmcgraw1057]

+Irving Blas chances are he was given a copy to do some game play as free advertisement

[@Hunter4376]

+Irving Blas Like any other one. They got a press build. Which covers a bit of the game. The build is no longer accessable to play. The will get a new one because the release is not far away.

[@commanderpower79]

48:34 "Holly grenade" moves camera away, "while thats happening" explosion in background, screams from enemy, also hear the promotion sound. So Funny! You could have saved Raphs body but I understand that limits your guns. Very cool. Can't wait to play.

[@sharkhunter21]

Those dynamic camera angles as they switch from soldier to soldier on over-watch are gorgeous! Thanks for more of the preview stuff Odd! Can't wait to play it and watch your LP too!

[@lilkritter69]

Love your videos watch them all the time ! Can't wait for the release

[@ChristopherOdd]

+Trevor Brake Thanks Trevor. I think it'll be worth the wait.

[@TheBlazFilip]

Great voice, beautiful commentary, slow and methodical, explains his every move and is diverse with his troops. Definitely an underrated channel, just earned a new sub, love the content bud!

[@edfreak9001]

Ha. "Sai" Operative.

[@Kaeridan]

+edfreak9001 That joke is gonna fly over so many heads...

[@Stormeris]

+edfreak9001 The "P" is silent.

[@Kaeridan]

[@Stormeris]

TheSparrowstorm Making a pun about Raphael's weapon from TMNT isn't funny nor clever >:l

[@edfreak9001]

Stormeris You love it, you know it to be true.

[@cwimalas]

Thanks so much. One of the better youtubers who have showcased this game!

[@GoodaleNation]

I LOVE the way the game looks now; the sectoids finally look and feel like a threat, the graphics and sound of everything is on point. XCOM 2 just keeps looking better and better

[@The_Burning_Sensation]

The previews of this game are making me want an XCOM movie, I swear. The music and everything is so epic.

[@Xcomleague]

THIS IS - OUTSTANDING! ChristopherOdd - Thank you SO MUCH!!!

[@Vincenzo1994]

I just can't wait too watch your full XCOM 2 playthrough. Thank god you're doing another run of the original atm.

[@ThernoxPL]

This is getting better and better.Thanks for the gameplay,Chris.

[@CasualGamer63]

Thanks Chris for taking the time to put this together. Great video!

[@BrokenToy]

Yen was a fucking BEAST HERE! I have never been so into a mission quite like this since the Fishing Village is XCOM: Enemy Within. So looking forward to when you do a full playthrough. BTW where can I go to submit my character for potential use here?

[@stroberry4660]

Right here bro

[@MrLevi789]

+TheKingofRants oh that fishing village sucks so bad the first time i got there lol.

[@joshuabolt7800]

+TheKingofRants lost my first captain at that village. wonder where ill lose my first captain this time

[@hobo0077]

+lee kauffman it's the easiest mission in the game lol

[@joshuabolt7800]

hobo0077 note he said first time. You have harder times with your first time

[@johnnordqvist6081]

really like all your videos about x-com 2, well edited and paced... well done =)

[@nickvandeezy5030]

My PC (a crappy laptop) won't handle this game, thank you so so much for this footage. I am definitely living vicariously through your badassery, so keep up the awesome work! You have a new subscriber and thumbs up for days!

[@Eirael]

You let me die?? sniff..

[@KhaledZahrman]

+Rafael Monteiro He just left you behind :(

[@Brakiros]

+Rafael Monteiro got shot in the back after being almost stranged :(

[@TheSwedishViking1]

Enjoyable voice, general commentary, tactics/gameplay. Great that I found this channel, is now my go to for xcom 2 stuff. So hyped for this game, just about to finish my first playthroughs of EU and EW and i´ve had such a blast with them. Really love the whole "running out of time" feel you get in this game though, compared to especially EUs slower paced gameplay

[@p0tat0handgun45]

44:46 Now I can only imagine what that Captain tried to do there, she ran up to Beagle and screamed in his face like: "YO MOMMA SO FAT, VIPERS CAN'T CONSTRICT HER" or "Join the ADVENT side, we have cookies!"

[@InquisitorThomas]

Wait ADVENT has cookies? Screw XCOM I know the right side

[@AnActualDinosaur]

This. Is. The scariest. Shit. I've. Ever. Seen. I'll stay on Commander difficulty come XCOM2 thank you very much.

[@alex-qy4bl]

Did you guys see the Gatekeeper alien reveal? It's basically a chryssalid inside a cyberdisk... RUN RUN RUN

[@emilemchew]

Ethereal inside a cyberdisk*

[@legion999]

+Emil Chew it seems to make zombies now, alex was correct

[@emilemchew]

legion999 which sectoids can do too,through psionics,your point is?

[@legion999]

+Emil Chew sectoids can ressurect, this gatekeeper stabs a living soldier with tentacles and zombifies him immediately

[@emilemchew]

legion999 so its a Ethereal-Chryssalid-Cyberdisk

[@havocgr1976]

All that great plays and in the end he almost screwed up.He should have been running to the ramp, full on.Nice channel btw, subbed.

[@reipasreijo4279]

Noooooo! You left Ralphies body behind! While doing last reaper manouver I would tried to pick up Ralphs body and go for it. Awesome XCOM2 vids!

[@TheHawkeye0725]

In case you're taking names I placed names I put mine in your part 1 recruits video. Thanks for the gameplay as well :)

[@Stealth17Gaming]

Great gameplay! Immediately subbed and can't wait to watch the rest :) Question: what mic do you use to record your vids? My headset works decent for my vids but yours seems better.

[@PhantomZwei]

These videos are fantastic and getting me more and more hyped for the full release. Keep it up, Christopher!

[@AstroPsych_]

What with the focused attitude towards one enemy, the weapon, and the way it deploys, the Stun Lancer turned out to be bizarrely similar to TR-8R from _The Force Awakens._

[@Blecco]

I love that Raphael talks in italian as the artist, not whatever is canon as the turtle.

[@AJ-kj1go]

Chris you every played the original base defense? It happened in your actual base, and it was probably the hardest mission in the game, oh nostalgia.

[@Unordinal]

+Aj Koorstra Well, the EW base defense is also in your actual base and can also be one of the hardest missions in the game. :P

[@AJ-kj1go]

Yeah I take your point. But EW is a custom base llooking map, xcom it was your actual entire base, however you built it.

[@SCPHYsicsGeek]

+Aj Koorstra Ah, the good ole OG Xcom! I do wish that they made multiple bases a thing again!! Having multiple skyrangers with a full loadout of troops around the world! It felt like you were a real military force to be reckoned with! And yes, the base defenses taking your layout! So much strategy there. And if your first base that you started with ever got attacked with it's horrid layout, anyone who appeared near the hangers and south of the access lift... were sacrificed to the alien blood gods! Ah, good times

[@gkrishna63]

Chris, Love the videos. I watched this one twice. Second time round felt you could have used Reaper with Yen @ the 18 min mark to save Rapahel. My XCom play has improved a lot after watching your videos :-)

[@johnshepherd6040]

"Well, how about that!". My words fall over. Your content is, as always... immaculate. Bless you.

[@KaitoShirayuki1]

Oh I'm gonna enjoy watching the playthrough when this game releases. Also, Odd, great work defending the Avenger!

[@leostarrs-cunningham8576]

Great stuff! As watchable as always. Really liked the ant-farm breakdown vid too. Looking forward to playing on 5th!

[@TJL-pq3hj]

XCOM Enemy within was awesome...But now that's just another game. XCOM 2 by far surpasses my expectations!! Keep the XCOM 2 Videos coming as I love watching these! For a character though, if you can get him in: Tavomorn 'Tavi' Hazire: Specialist (Battle Medic) British, English Tavi's father fought for the original XCOM and was very successful. Unfortunately a Sectopod got the better of him shortly before the aliens managed to take control of earth. However, what bothered Tavi so much was that his father could have been saved if only there were a spare MediKit. Since the day he got this news, Tavi vowed to do whatever he could to support the XCOM project. He went to Officer School and was taught how to control a GREMLIN to support his squad. After all this training Tavi believes he can be a huge help on the battlefield in taking care of wounded squaddies. Generally Armour colour would be green but the rest of the design is up to you! It would be great to see this character!

[@cedricdoguiles8283]

Love your vids man! Keep up the beyond amazing work!

[@brenner4240]

Awesome video, this mission looked brutal. Now I'm even more looking forward to the release next week

[@dutchrend]

Triss and Yen +10 awesome points ;P. Great video, can't wait for launch!

[@MichaSennin]

dude i love your xcom vids.

[@lilyrubyify]

So, no fighting aliens inside your actual base like in EW or the old xcom then? Bummer... Gameplay definitely still looks fun though, and great video as always.

[@pinie111]

+pINKprotege since your base is a ship if the aliens got in there you'd be pretty screwed regardless of the outcome of battle ;p You know missed shots/grenades etc. you' reck your own ships basically. On top of that if they could get in there once they can do it again and they could just send a sui squad and blow up the place (theoretically) so it wouldn't be very story correct. imo of course ^-^

[@simonsalgueiro6217]

+pinie111 That looks like a bit forced dude. Defending a goodg ame is cool, defending just for the sake of defending isnt. Makes you look too fanboyish. A fight inside could perfectly make sense. Aliens could jsut shoot your base down when they foudn you but they dont necesarily. You could say they want to egt your intel, or capture most of x com, or want their base back. Just as they didnt go Alahu Akbar in X Com base assault, why would they in this game?

[@pinie111]

Simón Salgueiro That is sth that bothered me for the longest time. If you assault the alien base the aliens come after your base right ? But only ONCE .... if they KNOW where it is shouldn't they try to just bomb it into oblivion (or if they actually want to capture you) send regular alien assault squads to the base? I get it from a design standpoint but from an RP/IRL standpoint it makes little sense :P

[@simonsalgueiro6217]

pinie111 Yea well, wasnt it an ENEMY WITHIN exclusive? that they had to use all the super psi humans they researched upon to get to your lcoation un noticed or soemthing like that? i remember that girl you egt from the psi humans quests tells you somethign about it, like ther est died or lost their super psi abilities doing so, so its not repeatable. But yea. Do a full assault, even if X Com knows you are coming, to the enemy abse thats fucking your plans would have made sense XD

[@SYKRAL1]

I love how everyone was limping back onto the Avenger and then Yen is just like " that was some good exercise!"

[@andrewelder2739]

And after 42 kills, how did you have ZERO promotions?! You were robbed, Commander...

[@MsKeylas]

+Andrew Elder Probably because his squad was already high level. plus reinforcements also dragged kills on their count but wasn't shown at the end since reinforcements weren't the main squad))

[@Babbling_Bard]

Subscribed. Love your videos Mr. Odd!

[@Alphapara]

I love how Yen, the only one not wounded, just walks back home looking like a badass

[@Thagyr]

Man, the way the environment lights up with that Muton's suppression fire is just awesome. Great sound direction on all the weapons too. They sound so much meatier than the original.

[@ProtoDr]

Thanks Chris! Your XCOM vids are the best! I can't wait when I get my hands on new XCOM. I wish that Reaper and Kill Zone ablities are not too over balanced in a long run. I like new enemies and new melee system. I wonder is there MECs anymore avaitable? Thanks again. :)

[@SCPHYsicsGeek]

Xcom 2 looks really fantastic, this mission was tense! Can't wait to get my hands on this come February. One thing that saddens me, at 24:08 the suppression ability doesn't seem to stop grenade attacks, or at least lower their range significantly!! Firaxis took so much from the Long War Mod yet they seemed to miss this one. Suppression just plain sucks if it doesn't lower aoe dmg abilities range such as the case in Xcom EU. Long war did it right and made suppression an actually useful ability! So, I see the first thing I'm modding in :)

[@pendraco2000]

+SCPHYsicsGeek in fairness, that was also a grenade launcher. it could very well have lowered the range of grenades, but that lob's got a bit more oomph to it.

[@SCPHYsicsGeek]

pendraco2000 Even units with the Bombard ability in LW couldn't throw far at all while under suppression. Plus I've seen other gameplay vods where the grenade was tossed from the hand at full range, no grenade launcher involved. But once again, shouldn't be too difficult to change the way that works.

[@NeroDeamon]

i never watch videos this long but this was entertaining watched the whole thing

[@AlexanderEddy]

I love that Beagle is an absolute boss in your playthrough.

[@MhmD-TH]

this reminds me of one time where there was a downed UFO i went to investigate it with my elite squad and i ended up fighting against 2 archons,1 berzerker,6 sectoids,1 ADVENT officer,1 ADVENT shield bearer,1 heavy stun lancer,1 codex,and an advent MEC and some turrets after that mission i ended up losing two of my best soldiers and that mission slowly led to my defeat

[@rickjohnson3171]

Hmoody-TH I love it when the enemy trows an Archon at me and I get a 100% domination on it so the enemy get's pinned by their own guy for the rest of the game wasting shots at him like idiots.

[@rickjohnson3171]

Hmoody-TH And everything mechanical get's haywired with my hackskill 120 combat hacker using them as suicide units.

[@throwscats]

One or two rangers with the ability that leaves them concealed after the squad gets revealed + three or four sharpshooters with kill zone seems like it might be extremely powerful. If it works like it does in my head then you could stealth through missions, leveling squads as you go with your snipers in the back--and all the shots would be on open targets.

[@nickrowan]

That reaper move with Yen was inspired. She's so badass.

[@alexsanderbarreto1890]

Love your videos!

[@UpRisingCake]

i just started playing xcom enemy unknown and im really looking forward to this game

[@TauShasla]

do you know how often this can happen in a game? only once like the base assault or more often?

[@tinyprince]

+Tau Shasla The base assualt can happen anytime as far as I'm aware, not just once.

[@ChristopherOdd]

+Tau Shasla You will get an idea of when you will become hunted by a UFO. You can prepare a bit that way.

[@bryan0x05]

+DirkAustin dark events listed ufo hunt so this will be a constant issue and u can delay it in the dark events from what i gather but it seems that u may be able to trick or avoid it however if not then its gonna happen a lot i guess

[@ariochiv]

+Tau Shasla The TotalBuscuit preview suggested that there are actions you can take to avoid this.

[@bryan0x05]

yeah until your force to risk it i would guess since u need to end the avatar project before it is finished.

[@klutzgamer]

Hi Chris. Thanks for those XCOM 2 videos. I'm glad that you show us how the gameplay will be and what situations we might encounter with. It really give me the preparation how I am going to get my a$$ kicked. I have to say checking your new videos is one of my priorities everyday. Thanks you for all these hard works. By the way, do you consider playing Banner Saga series in the future? I really hope you could try. Nice art and interesting story that one. Sorry for the off topic question.

[@skelskeleton]

What would be cool is that you had something similar to panic that (if people are dying left and right or you just need to take people back to the evac now) someone might try and grab someone (against your orders). It would be more likely to happen if they had large amounts of missions and/or rookies.

[@thesturmovik6410]

YOU! you let Ralph there ! Even the fact he´s dead - he has PSI OPS devices and stuff with him ....i don´t really think it´s good idea to let the enemy know how advanced your PSI R&D is. Especially considering it was Ralphs 1st mission. 1:04:30 stats bottom right for him

[@navyrayne]

wow...you keep getting extra soldiers during these, amazing...

[@Terrachova]

Pretty sure there *is* a big benefit to bringing troops' dead bodies back - you keep their gear. Leaving them behind means you lose it. This has been mentioned by most other youtubers so far, Beagle in particular.

[@zanebs5136]

Unlike previous XCOM games, once you buy a lvl 2 Rifle, everyone gets it as their base weapon (if they use a rifle, that is), so I don't think he would've left much behind besides maybe a weapon mod.

[@Maruun1986]

+Zanebs Seeing how strong costumized weapons can be...it will hurt ALOT to lose those weapons especial getting those mods again.

[@shadow_psych7069]

I hope u plan to upload lots of XCOM 2 videos after release cuz I unfortunately do not own a pc so I may have to miss this game if it nvr comes to console (fingers crossed) so ill b pretty much relying on ur channel to get my XCOM fix for the foreseeable future xD

[@shadow_psych7069]

also, great vids! I found ur channel back when u were playing through Dark Souls but I keep returning so I can watch ur XCOM videos lol keep up the great work! :D

[@shadow_psych7069]

P.P.S idk if u are gonna go back to episode 1 to read about various potential squad members but I just wanted to let u know that I left u a beautiful wall of txt to read back on that video lol xP

[@FFTT]

Looks great ! Too bad I don't have time anymore to play video games. This one would certainly have been on my list. I'll be watching you, Commander.

[@elliotscott8570]

Man, that POP sound at the beginning of the video scared the hell out of me.

[@Empmortakaten]

The game looks amazing, love the new character models for both the enemies and playables. Is it just me or was there MAD camera stutter? Nothing against you Odd, you played damn well, could be youtube or my browser acting up, but the camera seemed pretty damn jumpy.

[@StrikeNoir105E]

My theory on that Gremlin is that I think it's only undetectable if you're in concealment. Since your squad isn't... Also, that was a very impressive chain massacre with Reaper there, awesome! All it needed was RULES OF NATURE playing in the background.

[@ZorrroUK]

That reaper run was badass, they have made the classes so much more interesting this time around

[@Cjur]

If you bring back a fallen comrade, don't you gain the gear? I mean, why else have the option?

[@Ross6041]

+Cjur you get to keep the gear, yes

[@philipprovencher2622]

+Ross B2 yeh but do you lose the gear if you dont recover the body?

[@SOMEGUY7893]

+CodePhantom I assume you only lose it on missions where you can't recover their body afterwards like when you leave them behind after a retreat and such.

[@middlefinger1451]

+SOMEGUY7893 Dude this is xcom 2 you cannot recover stuff back when you leave in xcom 2 world is controled by ADVENT

[@SOMEGUY7893]

Just A Dude Yeah because you totally don't bring back materials and bodies after a raid or retaliation.

[@johnsplaytime8988]

Subscribed ! Nice video!

[@DragDenDFO]

Thank you, this video was very entertaining :D

[@Okanehira]

Damn the Reaper is like a Harlequin Solitaire.

[@aaronholmes-black6621]

Dude... That overwatch at 46:52 was hypnotizing.

[@Deskof003Blogspot]

Nice vid, but I can't tell you how many times I screamed "just dash to the device, blow it and go home!"

[@HellsRaven4444]

Giving Beagle Phantom...was that suppose to be a reference to the Ghost grenades that he kept abusing for so long.

[@cetaepsilon]

If during soldier select screen you get back to the geoscape (by removing a soldier, clicking add, and clicking the geoscape icon) then you can fly away from this encounter. The UFO will tail you all around the world although it won't do anything.

[@markdickerson3445]

Yo' That was awesome. I would've died early in this mission. Great Job.

[@MrQuazerGames]

8:16 Allies move out of the way of shots!

[@PaulRoneClarke]

I had two rangers both used their "run and gun". Then two snipers with squad-site assisted. the rangers then ran back. One of them - a corporal with only two kills to his name - was deliberately one square behind so they would target him first. They did. He died - but the other Ranger (A captain with over 40 kills to her name) made it back to the ramp and we lifted off. 4 turns in all. the longer you stay - the harder it gets. They just keep coming. I had the beacon down by the end of turn 2. I did have a bit of luck. The senior ranger had that "Bladeswipe" or whatever it is called skill and when some of the Advent got up close and personal - she killed them in their own turn - no overwatch or whatever. I think she killed 2 in one turn despite no overwatch. Good skill to have in this mission. This was hard mode not nightmare mind you.

[@tekkenbd30fan70]

great videos dude. Intense i luv it.

[@AleFaza]

Nice work Commander !!!

[@Faleg]

Is it just me, or did You drastically improve tactically lately (I am catching up on videos, so missed quite a few)?

[@andrewelder2739]

Man, those first four or five rounds were SERIOUS nail-biters! Well done, man. Very cool to see some of this more advanced gameplay. One question, you mentioned at the top that you were going out without armor. Why was that? Did you not have any available/built? Or was that some kind of limitation parameter of the Avenger Defense mission?

[@rxdntpto]

Funny how in my campaign I’m about to get caught by the ufo in the exact same spot as you hahah

[@Garycarlyle]

I really enjoyed this. Thanks.

[@asia911]

Great video. I would have move the dead/injured soldier closer to the take off platform at the earlier stage so you can pick them up on the way back.

[@commandercritic9036]

Wow just wow, can't wait for this game

[@wesleybrock315]

The ranger melee tree looks wicked. I think I know what my favorite class is already.

[@UndeadDragonWarrior]

Reaper ability = Perpetual Berserker, rushing in, cutting up everyone, surged with adrenaline.

[@Foksuh]

Well, that dragged on longer than I expected. These missions are gonna be real pain. I can only assume you don't get to keep the 'loot' from the killed bad guys(corpses etc?).. because otherwise these missions would be.. well.. crazy for farming? :P

[@InquisitorThomas]

Granted this guy really drags out his decision making process so this mission might be a quarter of this videos length if you took a more aggressive and risky strategy

[@retrospectus]

early on in the mission, if you had the psychic guy throw a grenade at the sectoid behind the burning car the combined explosion probably would have killed it. that's assuming it works the same as the first one anyway

[@arthurhill8185]

holy crap. Kill Zone looks like an awesome ability. The indicator is soooo big. When will you have the sharpshooter video out?

[@Vandragorax]

I really like all the previews of this game so far. It seems like they've basically turned the game around so we're playing like the Aliens played in Enemy Unknown, and they are playing like we did, if that makes sense. It seems to feel this way mostly because we get the concealment so we can scout without triggering them (which is the single most AMAZING thing so far). I'm wondering how awesome it would be to have a whole team full of Rangers with concealment and swords, and just run around in the shadows like ninjas assassinating all the patrols one at a time :D

[@SwiftNimblefoot]

Nice gameplay! I love how clever the enemies are at times, taking cover and working together to flank you or take down your stronger units. Think you advanced too much though, that was the problem. Also, yeah, hacking something breaks concealment even if you back out of the hack, I should think a MEC would notice being hacked. :D And btw, Vipers are gals, not guys. :P

[@dangerbeans9639]

Damn! Can't wait for this to happen in the legend playthrough. Send out the A Team!

[@yakojjy]

I have to say. You got really lucky this game. Either that or legendary isn't what it used to be. You made is seem very easy, but you did get a hell of a lot of lucky crits and clutch dodges. Dodging two stun lancer attacks back to back like that. Plus you only got one viper. Their tongue grabs are annoying as hell. So broken. Also, wtf is up with these long range shard gun hits? lol Only had time to watch 45 minutes, I'm assuming you finished up nicely. Cheers. Great vid. Great commentary even for someone who already knows mostly everything about the game. And Fantastic quality. Top Notch. Your vid resolution looks better on my 32 inch than my actual game looks on a 17. Well more defined.

[@Alphapara]

To my understanding, bringing bodies back home is more than sentimental. Equipment on left soldiers is lost, and recovered ones is kept. If you had some armor or custom weapons on a soldier you lost, bringing him back returns that equipment to your armory. I wouldn't be surprised with the new PTSD mechanic if bringing back fallen comrades reduces the chances of PTSD effects (and if that last part isn't true, the modding community better fix that fast :D)

[@varis438]

Chris do you know: - How many weapon tiers will be? - Something about MECs? - Something about multi? BTW Great video man, you are owning legendary difficulty before game release

[@ChristopherOdd]

+Varis I don't know the maximum weapon tiers unfortunately. MEC's have been replaced by EXO suits with you can equip on anyone for extra armor and a rocket launcher. Multiplayer is the same as EU and EW as far as I know.

[@face112]

+ChristopherOdd I thought MEC's where suppose to be the last class to be revealed later this year. I really do hope MEC's make it in the game and we are not just stuck with the EXO suits.

[@petriksaksamaa]

+face112 It wouldn't make a any sense story vise for a resistance group on an alien controlled planet to have access to very adcanced combat equipment such as MECs. The EXO suits are the only logical things because they are clearly makeshift stuff.

[@johnnyutah1501]

Good job man!

[@praudmur]

Very cool play. Tough decision not to go after Ralph. I'd probably go and lose somebody else if not most of squad.
