XCOM2 If you are buying XCOM on Steam, buy XCOM 2 Collection and then complete XCOM Ultimate Collection, it is cheaper that way
The XCOM Ultimate Collection is still priced as if Anarchy's Children, Alien Hunters, and Shen's Last Gift still cost money(add up the prices of everything in the 4th image, including the $24.97 for the now free DLCs and you get the $59.14 on sale pre-bundle discount price listed), and those DLCs are actually included in the XCOM 2 Collection for free even if they are not listed in "items included in the bundle" list, they are mentioned as being in the bundle in the description.
So if you don't own any XCOM stuff on Steam, at the usual sale prices the XCOM Ultimate Bundle costs $20.14, and the XCOM 2 Collection costs $7.97. But if you buy the XCOM 2 Collection bundle first, you get the 3 N/A DLCs included, which brings the XCOM Ultimate Collection down to $5.69 to complete this bundle. Giving it a total price of $13.66 to get everything in the XCOM Ultimate Collection instead of $20.14.
Hopefully this saves other new players like myself some money.

Just found out that I completed my first Vanilla C/I run 430 hours in. I've been playing C/I since my 2nd playthrough...
In fairness, the last run I completed was a Who Needs Tygan run. Now I remember doing it on Veteran Ironman, but turns out I had never completed a C/I run prior to that.
This run was actually an attempt at Exquisite Timing. I know... I missed it by a bit.

WOTC Im doing a Commander Ironmode and the Arcron Ruler has crashed the game
Not sure if my save is now corrupted. The Arcon King has turned up and he is just floating in the air with one of my guys. He isn't smashing them into the ground like he should. I've tried reloading and they are just still stuck there. Is there anything I can do? I was finally doing well with warden armour and a heap of Colonels and now this happens.

Meta Collection is on Sale! But I have a question before I buy?
I'm new to the series so I wanted to ask what's the Chronological Order to play these games. It might not be important to some people, but I want to play the games that way if possible.
I always wanted to play these games as they seem neat and cool, and they're selling to whole XCOM collection on Steam right now for $20.14 (https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/20109/XCOM_Ultimate_Collection/)
From what I heard the order these games came out was XCOM: Enemy Unknown -> XCOM 2 -> XCOM: Chimera Squad.

Long War 2 LWotC freezing on Gatecrasher loadup - running 160 mods, Binary search method was inconclusive. Help?
Hi all,
So I'm having some major issues trying to get the game to run with my mod load, I did the Binary search method, running half and narrowing down, I thought I found the culprit mod, ran that mod, it works, and then freezes doesn't when it doesn't run. At my wits end here.
I tried disabling 10 at a time, freezes everytime - there is some conflict somewhere but I have no idea how to actually figure this out. I checked potential conflicting mods and outdated mods on the sidebar and it's all in order, I'll list my mods below.
Prepare for a wall of text, these are the mods I'm running:

Long War Question about long war
I've played XCOM:EW and 2 for a good amount of time but never tried any long war mods but now I want to play long war of the chosen, should I do some research before playing because of how much changes it has or just get my ass beaten and learn the hard way

XCOM2 Xcom 2 Switch used to run better?
I played XCOM 2 on switch like 2-3 years ago, loved it to bits, put like 200 hours in it. Recently redownload it to and it runs horribly, I swear it wasn't this bad. It wasn't flawless last time by any means but I genuinely couldn't stomach the PowerPoint Slideshow-Esque frames. Am I just remembering it wrong or has something changed?
r/Xcom • u/Belligerent-Rhubarb • 1d ago
XCOM:EU/EW Any of yall give your soldiers lore?
In Enemy Within and Unknown, I like to give my soldiers either a little background story or have them have special connections with other soldiers. In my most recent playthrough for example, I had these 2 Aussies who both chose to be snipers, so I had them be brother and sister. Then the same happened but with 2 Brits who decided to be medics, so I had them be siblings too. It makes the game more fun and makes it so I pay attention to my soldiers more, idk makes it feel like a movie.
Do any of yall do this? And if so, give some fun examples of what you did

Xcom TTRPG Project
Xcom has always seemed to be a very tabletop-style game, and I wanted to challenge myself by making it a true TTRPG while trying to be as faithful and accurate to how the game normally is. However, I am running into a few snags when it comes to collecting the data I need in order to formulate this game. I have the 'Level list' for all 4 main classes and know how I want to base the dice system (I wanna do it D100 style). There are just a few things I need assistance with which I will be posting in the comments of this post.

Long War 2 XCOM 2 (LWOTC and more) weapon bug, trying to hunt down the source
hello!
About a year ago I set up XCOM 2 with a bunch of mods - 204 in fact (the overwhelming majority are voice packs, additional costume options, or prerequisites for LWOTC etc., with a couple new class mods also) . In the time since, due to some personal things, I've pretty much totally lost my memory of what I had set up and why, beyond running Long War of the Chosen. I've recently reupdated everything and reinstalled all my previous mods through the Steam workshop, and am using XCOM Alternative Mod Launcher v1.5.1 (can't find a way to export the full list of mods as text or I would. If it exists, I'd be happy to, please let me know!)
The problem I am having is that when equipping my characters with new primary weapons, the weapon I just equipped them with SOMETIMES disappears - but I noticed in missions they seem to still have it. I am getting anywhere from 2 to 4 different 'attack' options and realized that they're accessing different weapons they in theory have access to and in practice very much should not - including having multiple reload icons, and ammo capacity not being correctly tracked in the UI (firing a shot but none is used). I found also I can 'cycle out' the weapons by i.e. "I want this laser rifle equipped, but when I equipped it it equipped an assault rifle instead. I will attempt to equip an assault rifle and the laser rifle is what's now equipped". I thought this had solved the problem and all was well (I mod many games, and am used to finding jank workarounds) but I in fact haven't solved anything at all, it seems.
I'm hoping to not have to discard my save, but if I DO have to discard it I want to make sure I only have to the once and that everything should be golden afterwards.
The thing is, I SWEAR I remember somewhere in LWOTC, or maybe a mod that added sidearms, or... something, somewhere, there was a warning against using some menu or other - either "don't swap weapon by clicking the weapon icon, go to the specific characteer and then hit the loadout button" or perhaps the other way around - I can't remember, and I've looked through the steam workshop pages and help pages for every mod I can think of I have installed that at all interacts with weapons or classes to no avail.
Am I completely imagining this? Is this an incredibly common problem and I just wasn't able to find someone else who had it, somehow? Did my eyes glaze past the text explaining what to do? Can this be fixed if I i.e. try to unequip every weapon from all my soldiers and then manually re-equip them all myself? Is there a file I can pop into notepad++ that stores the character data and would let me manually scrub it myself, maybe?
Sorry if this is an incredibly obvious and stupid question, and thank you for taking the time to read it.

Final Episode of Ardenti Caelo: Episode 4 - A Brave New World, and After Story: The Commander's Calling are now up. Links to the After Story Episode and the full Ardenti Caelo playlist will be in the body of this post. WARNING: Flashing/Strobe effects used in this video!
Well, thanks to everyone who's been watching XCOM Ardenti Caelo. It's been real fun making these music videos and it's likely these will be my final episodes to this project - unless XCOM 3 is made. Since you came along on this journey with me, I made a special After Story episode which isn't a music video so much as it is using the dialogue to tell a closing story for Commander Angela Williams and C.O. Bradford.
So, here's a link to After Story: The Commander's Calling.
If you'd like to watch the full story, here's a link to the full playlist.
Thanks again everyone!

Ethereal Religion
In XCOM 2, the ADVENT Priests and Warlocks show that there is a religion built around the Ethereals, but we never get any insight as to what that religion is like. Do y'all know of anything that expands upon the faith?

WOTC Long War of the Chosen
Having attempted a few playthroughs I am always thrown off by the amount of missions that come up with little to no infiltration time. It ends up happening so much that I donât have enough intel to keep up. Maybe I need to research more intel pads as I get them and prioritize scientists early game to power through that and mag weapons. I have two thirds of my haven personnel on intel for mission scouting but i seem to always get missions that will end up having moderate levels of people (15~20) within my first ten missions if I donât use intel constantly.

I have finished the game on commander many times but not iron-man. So I really wanted the hardcore xcom experience. My first run I did ok. Got a few majors in my squad them the avatar project killed the game for me. The 2nd and 3rd , my guys just kept getting wiped or the Chosen shows up and fucks the game for me. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any good tips?

Meta How does fire emblem compare?
I love XCOM sm and Iâm wondering how fire emblem compares? Is it as deep/interesting strategically? I like the idea of having actual characters instead of randomly generated soldiers but I donât want it if itâs mostly visual novel.
Edit: I should clarify Iâd probably play the more modern games. Iâm not really looking to dig up an emulator.

WOTC I made my two first ever XCOM2 Collections and I'm really happy about them!
Thoughts on "Time to Dive" and The Marvellous Pack?

XCOM2 Is XCOM 2 on xbox really that bad?
I have over 500 hours of xcom 2 on PC, but i got an xbox series S and was thinking of playing it in there...apparently its a very dodgy port with crashes.
Is it really that bad? Because a crash every 5/10 hours doesn't bother me, but how is the perfomance overall?
