. Mod. Posted almost 2 years ago. 12 downloadsWar of the Chosen already brought a new emergency mission style to the game, but this brings yet another. With this, you'll get the Emergency Extraction mission type. Civilians were in danger and a part of the resistance responded. Unfortunately, now those agents are caught up behind enemy lines too.
Long War Leader Pack. This adds leaders, a new development path for XCOM soldiers. Leaders train in the Guerrilla Tactics School and gain perks that help the entire squad. Only one leader may go on most missions, so be careful who you select for training. Soldier mods; By johnnylump. I've completed a campaign 3 times with WOTC, I wouldn't play xcom 2 w/o. And I'll admit to not being much of a fan of Long War, what they're. However, if you want, both parts of the mod are downloadable separately. While it will show a small warning symbol when loaded with WotC, it can be played without any issues. Long War 2 by Pavonis Interactive. The famous Long War mod returned alongside the launch of the workshop for XCOM 2. Officially sanctioned by Firaxis themselves, Pavonis Interactive have essentially included an overhaul DLC for free.
Thought they'll head back home if they can just survive, these operatives of either Reapers, Templars, or Skirmishers will serve your purposes and follow your orders until the battle is finished.
I have to disagree on this, vanilla xcom2 feels pretty much as it should be, and almost everything added in wotc, while awesome, feels a bit out of place. So wotc is more like 'what xcom2 should have always been and then a shitloads of more'.I mean this as a good thing, because it doesn't feel like they made agame only to leave bits out for easy expansion. Maybe sparks should have been added from the start, since EU had shivs. And some customization (face paint etc) but i'm okay with that.
I ditched LW2 because of the aforementioned grind after about 100 hours and am about 20 hours into WoTC. However, LW2 is a fantastic experience if you want to pore 100+ hours into XCOM2, the depth is great along with the 'realism'. One of the things which is bugging me about WoTC at the moment is the neutralise all enemies objective - it really grates when you are such a small band of elite soldiers that you are almost forced to waste time and resources on killing everything to be successful. I enjoyed LW2 for getting in, getting the job done and then extracting - maybe with a couple of dead ayy's on your back. Saying that I got fed up with managing a monumentally large roster of soldiers and not really getting attached to the soldiers in LW2.I think WoTC with lots of LW2 mods is the perfect compromise.
