A laboratory is an…. interesting pick, considering he's maxed out on contacts.
Fear
the
⚽ S P H E R E ⚽
A giant ball. Fascinating… yes.
Shoulda made an EMP bomb.
And yes. The snake pope hat is great.
Maybe Jon shouldn't be so blase about using Bridget as bait. I might be wrong, but he seems to have a 'no soldiers killed' run going at the minute.
For a little bit of context: Martina activated Bladestorm out of the Ruler Reaction of the Snake Pope from being hit (It counts even if the reaction is "I am frozen, I cannot do anything"), not out of her walking next to him.
is he actually going to lose a soldier?!?! heavily edited nonsense
Hope you had a great vacation 😎 Just wanted to say that I think you’re sleeping on Tabby’s kill zone ability. You get a reaction shot on all enemies moving in the cone of fire (ammo permitting). This for example means that she can get a shot on every enemy in a pod during an ambush. Give her an expanded mag and she could take 5-6 reaction shots in a single turn!
Jon,here's a suggestion, give Cameron or Tabby the Bluescreen rounds. Snipers are already OP enough,but snipers that could put down a sectopod in two shots is Hilariously broken.
The Archon pope has a BS attack that can technically wipe the entire team within two reactions if everyone is within reach.
If he flies straight up, you must stun/freeze/kill him with the next move he can see.
Otherwise he will drop massive damage in a large area you cannot avoid
So why is your nickname in the game "egg box" ? Is there something you should talk about ? 😉
Jon, I'm pretty sure the guards of the snake pope aren't cardinals; they're probably the Swhisssss Guard
I really had hoped, after seeing what Kill Zone could do on the avenger defense mission, that Jon would start using it for ambushes out of concealment.
Jon turning down the potential increase in hacking for scanning time really hurts my soul
The Professor needs to get his weapon and GREMLIN painted!
My favorite ambush tactic is to throw shrapnel mine into pod, set up sniper or whoever else has the kill zone ability, and fire grenade in with grenadier
I said on a couple of previous videos that you were sleeping on expanding your range. Lucky you've been on a lower difficulty most of the time, otherwise the avatar project would have got way out of control. It will build up very quickly on harder difficulties if you are not taking down bases
Honestly, Jon gets so damn lucky. When i'm playing ruler reacts to every single thing I do haha
Instant WAR suits is literally one of the best rewards you can get
PS give your sniper bluescreen rounds and you wipe out most robots with a single shot
warlocks easy the assassin is the hard to kill chosen.
Jon, when you do things like upgrade weapons or get one of the "better damage" researches, remember that you can give any soldier an assault rifle as their primary weapon if it's just objectively better than their current weapon.
These videos need to get longer not shorter 😢
43:00 I wonder if the ball is this game's equivalent of the original X-com's Discs who were a super tough late game flying enemy…
✌
Jon, to spare you some trauma, do not let the BALL have a turn… do… not…
"We can kill you if you come out, but for some reason you don't want to come out." I wonder why…
Jon missed a trick not naming this episode the snake pope bites back
Time to put the difficulty up again 😉
Im dirprised no one told u to upgrade ur base armor. Its way more durable and comes with the ability to make super exosuits and wraith suits.
Oh i cannot wait till he meet "Big Mommy"
Bro, you should give 'Bunker 21' a try in your next stream. It's going to be epic!
Can’t say enough how much a game like Xcom is not my usual interest but I am LOVING this series and game.
Not sure if it's just editing magic, but has Jon not noticed that specialist's can hack from a distance?
Jon, please please PLEASE upgrade your skirmishers equipment. You're just gonna stay disappointed in them if you leave them with shitty stuff
Jon, what a shame you were ready with frost bombs for the popes before your first encounter. You missed out on the sheer terror of those first ruler reactions. I lost almost the whole team the first time I saw a pope in the wild 😀
You may wish to consider getting silent killer for your reaper Elena. Every time she gets a kill her chance to reveal is 0%.
ITS ORB TIME GAMERS
42:38 Bernadette Bernard is giving me flashbacks to a Council mission in my own game where I was tasked with rescuing a scientist named Dr. Thomas Thomas.
I'm worried about Bernadette Bernard going against a flamethrower enemy, seeing as how she has "burn" in her name twice.
the faceless autopsy is perhaps the best research project in xcom 2. A decoy grenade that all aliens target until destroyed. Though the alien has to see it
Jon upgrading his resistance comms, then IMMEDIATELY ignoring the fact that he can upgrade his 2 perfectly serviceable power relays and then choosing to build ANOTHER power relay gave me a stroke
"Well done, Bridget McKay, I did not expect you to still be alive at this point."
Well, she is Scottish, and if there's anything we've learnt this playthrough, it's that Scottish people are just genetically badass.
Wooooooooo, always happy to see some more Xcom.
