Started playing yesterday, the game feels harder than first one. There are some frame drops and bugs (guy with stun baton hitting people through wall) but it's great. My squad so far: Cpt. Nate 'Two Tap' Mate. Sniper. Best soldier I have. Sgt Tom 'Boomer' Hagen, grenadier. He's the tank of the team, it's basically a miracle he's still alive Sgt Fagzai 'Beta' Beagle, specialist. Has a thing for always getting mind controled and being gravely wouned after every mission. Sgt Tiny 'Gunner' Carlos, ranger. On the hardest mission so far, he got knocked unconscious at the start and had to be carried by Cack and Nate through whole map to the Evac zone. Cpl Herpa Derpa, ranger. Cpl Rock Mineral, specialist. Cpl Admin Nimda, sniper. Has a talent for always getting unscratched from hardest missions. Squadies Darker Fox and Cack Man. Although low ranked, on their first mission, they managed to kill tons of aliens and escort N8 carrying unconscious Tc to safety. Sq. Bio Shock. Has a really shit aim. Sq. Dead Waste. Sq. Heisen Burg. Also gets mind controled often. Aside from a bunch of randoms, only dead so far are Cpl Potato, killed by explosion. Sq. Dark Fox. Killed by Nate. Later remade cause I never got to give him a Lee look. Sq Sos Prez, died heroically covering rest of his team. And most importantly Long Wang, longest Wang in the team. Died some random death.

This game is way better than first one to me, needs just some patches for all the fuckin bugs, which there's a lot of. Heisenberg got knocked out by a stun lancer, and I would carry him to evac zone, but nope. Game bugged and didn't let me pick up the body, so I had to leave Heis to his death.
One of the new enemies is Gatekeeper, and it's the most annoying shite in the game. I prefer fighting Sectopods than this. Today, I got a simple mission of recovering some Advent supplies. I sent Kat, Df, Tormunds, MP, Ilc and Admin, and everything was going well. Until gatekeeper with a group of aliens reinforced the aliens. We got pushed back, the team medic, Tormunds, died one shotted by Gatekeeper, Df was wounded, threw flare for Evac and retreated.
Right after, Kat got Critically wounded and started bleeding out. I basically risked whole squad remaining, making them rush into battle, covering Ilc who carried Kat into Evac zone at the last possible moment. Admin and Mp somehow managed to kill all remaining aliens, while getting heavily wounded, and the mission was a sucess. Kat was saved.
After everyone recovered from injuries, I sent the team to blow up the alien base. Mission was easy, but while escaping, Kat got a random critical shot in the back and died on spot. thx xcom

Fun fact, when you finally fight the alien called the Andromeda, which looks vaguely like a Big Daddy, the autopsy report is codenamed Levine. Ha, ha, ha!

Decided to make a couple of forum members here in my game, which resulted in me getting pissed the fuck off when Carlos died on his second goddamn mission. This one's a lot harder than the first one.

Just did the first Blacksite mission. It was a close call. Niccc saved the day about twice. A Muton had the squad pinned down for several turns and had already shot one of our guys, who was bleeding out on the ground. So I had a soldier throw the squad's last grenade to destroy his cover, then TC who was in position to strike shot the bastard down. A few turns later we were evac'ing with the objective item and the wounded soldier slung over Francis' back (Yes, THE Francis, from Left 4 Dead) an enemy patrol with a huge Mec arrived. TC, the heavy gunner with armor piercing ability, mowed the Mec down just before it opened fire, quite possibly on Francis and the wounded man. We fucked off to the extraction zone immediately after, and amazingly everyone survived (Barely). TC was one of two people to come back totally unwounded from that mission.

So I'm thinking of getting this for the Xbox One in September since I highly doubt my PC can run it well. I already played and beat the first one, which I was really proud of since I had my entire team survive the entire game except for the last level where three people died. I'll definitely be doing forum members when I get it though.

Alright, finally got off my ass and screenshotted the forum members I've made. @rhseemscool : Biography (Or close enough because I can't remember exactly): During the first war with the invaders Harp was too young to serve, barely, but when the US Government declared martial law he found himself in a war against starvation. With most of the nation's supplies going toward the war effort there was precious little for the civilians on the home front, and when the invaders began pushing against the major cities even those meager reserves began to dry up. Harp did what he had to to survive: He stole. He stole whatever he could find whenever he found it to ensure that he and his friends would be able to eat each night. The military cracked down when they discovered the thefts but he didn't stop. All that mattered was keeping those he cared about safe and alive. When Earth surrendered to the aliens he quickly discovered that the planets new government, ADVENT, was far worse than the old one, and with his lifelong distaste for authority of any kind it was only a matter of time before he wound up on one of ADVENT's lists and was disappeared by the occupiers, so he decided to vanish on his own terms and snuck out of San Francisco one dark night a year after the alien victory. He met up with another like-minded survivor, Nick, and the two began a campaign of sabotage and subterfuge throughout the occupied US. When XCOM contacted them they signed on immediately, though Harp's problems with the chain of command can make him difficult to deal with for those that don't know him. Niccc: Nick was a promising new recruit for the XCOM Project during the invasion when the unthinkable happened the day after he finished basic training: The aliens won. Earth, after a year of hard fighting and sacrifice, had fallen. With XCOM all but destroyed by a massive alien assault there was nobody he could fight for, and after the devastation wrought upon the Earth it seemed nobody else wanted another fight. Nick did the only thing he could and fled, making for the wilderness with several other fresh XCOM recruits who were determined to keep up the fight, or at least live to see another day. But after a few clumsy and ineffective raids against the newly formed ADVENT the rookies decided to hang up their weapons. None of them would live much longer if they kept fighting. They would sit back and wait for a better opportunity to resume the fight to free Earth, until they actually stood a chance of winning. Less than a week after deciding to stand down the rookies were discovered by a heavily armed ADVENT patrol and captured. Nick's friends were executed for their XCOM affiliations and he was thrown in a work camp for the new regime where they thought he would die. Only a few months later he made a successful escape and decided to renew his guerilla war against ADVENT and make them pay for what they did to his friends. He met up with a fellow survivor, Harp, on a mission and the new pair of friends waged a two-man war against ADVENT for years. When XCOM contacted them Carlos jumped at the chance to serve them after being robbed of it over a decade earlier. He throws himself into combat with a fury and passion unmatched by any other soldier and has made it clear that he won't rest until he has reduced ADVENT and their alien masters to ashes. wakemeup: Brotato only really had one goal: Stay low and do everything you can to see tomorrow. Living in a tenement in one of ADVENT's numerous population centers in the remains of Eastern Europe, he preferred to live quietly and without a fuss. When others talked about "Resistance" or "Freedom" he just slouched his shoulders and walked past them. He was perfectly fine with just being alive and with his family. His dreams never went beyond tomorrow. He would have remained that way too, until ADVENT decided that the growing resistance had too much support and set off a bomb in Brotato's residential area and tried to blame it on the resistance. His family didn't survive but by some miracle he did, but with scars on his face would always be there to remind him. The bombing sparked mass protests over Europe when the population refused to be fooled by ADVENT's blatant propaganda grab, and Brotato decided to join one. It was a massacre. Hundreds of civilians were gunned down by ADVENT "Peacekeepers" but once again Brotato managed to survive. Experiencing so much of ADVENT's brutality first hand finally drove him to do what he never thought he was capable of and fight back. Days later he was in contact with the resistance, and a week after that he was on the firing line and doing his part to free Earth. Despite how much anger he has at what ADVENT did to his family his goal isn't vengeance against them, but to prevent the tragedy that he suffered from befalling others. When he heard that XCOM had been reformed he signed on with them, seeing them as humanity's only true hope to once again be free. He'll do anything for his fellow soldiers and is counted as one of the organization's most reliable and dedicated soldiers.
