Hello. Today I would like to complain about how overpowered HARVESTER is.
(...)
Secondly, camping in this craft is too easy because no windows.
And lastly, you can block lifts so melee enemies can never reach you.

Since HARVESTER is not military craft originally it may have fair amount of windows, stairs and ramps I presume.

I don't want to add to the rumormill and keep in mind I'm just a random observer/lurker here so I have as much information as you do, but a few pages ago on this topic Dioxine did mention that he's living in a certain area where war has broken out. I'm just guessing but I think that might be the reason why he's not posted here at least.

It's confirmed that living in waring country does not require to abandon usual habits until your city district assault.
Dioxine's country was not invaded nor bombed same as will not be in foreseen feature due to longstanding political reasons. It even was mentioned in complete different context so war factor itself should not be overestimated.

Thank you, quite helpful indeed. Do you think something similar for enemy bases could be useful too?

How to get cloaking device after rejecting the power?

I see necessary Shadowtech listed as acquirable from gnome interrogation but what does "Get one free protected" section mean?

Hey quick question, is there like an artistic or otherwise explanation for why the namelist for humans has the hard n-word in the list of surnames? Thanks

Outrageous. If this true I demand at least latinos and jews represented correspondingly. Maintaining equality and diversity does matter.

- Gfx improvements to paperdolls: Academy Nurse, Researcher, Medic, Engineer, Esper, Osiron Yeoman, Church Neophyte, Mutant Half-Uber, Brute, Lamia (by Interdictor w/ some slight modifications)

I've just quickly checked updated paper-dolls and has not found anything closely resemble to my past contribution. Please check maybe somebody else nickname should be mentioned in this update changenotes instead of mine. Latter one is misspelled too but anyway.

Thank you for detailed answer it will helps me a lot.

Well I know about Dutchman its granted for free by event and impossible to overlook. But what about fighter crafts? Following the rule of challenge it seems not easy to get and arm something especially early game.

First of all I would like to express my admiration of your quite impressive experiment. I'm used to rely on black market purchases and feeling sorry for many cool craftable stuff remained unused by this way at least on early game stage. Also since I've loosed few times quite early because of infamy loss caused by Ninja bases so I have a several of questions about early game stage I'm actually stuck on for years already.

1. What early game aircraft layout do you get and use especially while rejecting the power, ie no-codex play?
2. What gear and tactics you've used to eliminate first Ninja bases and their auto turrets in particular?
3. Have you used primitive / stone age weapon and what for?

Thank you!

Seems like adequate solution for some sort of free to pay mobile MMO but not for XPiratez I would say.

By the mod lore you emerge and start to undermine the law and order on empire provincial planet. It's a matter of time then your activity will draw an attention and get appropriate response so this story has a start and has a final. I would rather presume enemy measures severity should increase as your infamy rating but this might be already implemented.

If you believed news about my death, they were somewhat exaggerated.

Happy to see you and also happy to see my efforts being implemented. Thank you, Dioxine!

While admitting I'm not really understand the reason of decision to change sub-forum moderator I am as an actual community member still feeling obligated to proclaim my protest.

I can understand and even support the idea to free developer from tasks like forum moderation and community management but still consider formal moderation rights removal as a fracture of community self-respect that should not be allowed as an ill practice. As far I can see Dioxine had the sub-forum moderator rights from the beginning so I consider maintaining the status quo in a case of hostile force emersion as a matter of community honor.

With full of reasonable respect to the decision of the senior leadership of the community I still decided to share my considerations to avoid being silently agreed.

I thank everybody for attention.

I must admit I don't like how laser shots looks with new effects. Things like flaming drops from thrown Molotov is just amazing but laser shots now looks like.. fireworks maybe. Lasers supposed to be sharp and thin, like a beam, that's what I'm used to see in X-com since my childhood
