Xcom Long War Tactics

The second mod on Long War's roster this week is the Long War Laser Pack, which adds a new tier of laser weapons to the game to make blasting the alien threat to cinders all the more enjoyable. Each weapon is modeled and textured to perfectly fit the XCOM theme and slots perfectly into the XCOM 2's desperate fight for survival like a missing piece of the puzzle that somehow makes the whole. In the previous versions of Long War 2, you had to complete Mission 3 successfully or your liberation progress in the region would be reset. However in my recent game (Long War v1.4, Summer 2017) I ignored the mission on two occasions and it didn’t seem to reset liberation chain progress.

Our Jeremy tried Long War 2 out if you wanted some hands-on impressions, but essentially it’s XCOM 2 but bigger, more punishing, and with much more to do.

The Long War 2 is now available to download on Steam Workshop.

Original Story January 17, 2017:XCOM 2 will see some huge changes in the form of the upcoming Long War 2 mod. Coming from Pavonis Interactive (formerly Long War Studios), the Long War 2 mod will introduce a number of strategic gameplay changes which look set to shake up the way we play XCOM 2.

Adding a total overhaul to how you engage in operations all over the game’s globe, the Long War 2 mod will task players with micro-managing their rebellion within each separate region. Tasks such as recruiting new soldiers, gathering intelligence or searching for supplies will be assignable to specific rebels. An adviser, in the form of a scientist, engineer or soldier will be able to be put to work in each region, giving relevant bonuses.

A new and improved enemy AI is also on the way and ADVENT will be constructing research facilities and moving on your position regularly. But you will be able to counter this by deploying multiple squads at once to target specific locations.
