Love that new armor! But the white helmet, blue and red badges makes me think of a police officer rather than a bandit
@Stealth/Difficulty: Come on guys! You don't play Piratez because it's easy.. You play it because it's harder than XCom and presents you new challenges. If you feel lazy when encountering cat-girls, just chuck a grenade her way (or use explosive ammo to target the tile next to her). They are not tough, just hard to aim at. Also, motion scanners are great to spot them even if you can't see them because of the stealth.
NEVER trust reaction fire against cat-girls, because the gals might not have LoS and the cat-girls have high reaction. If expecting them, try to have as much overlapping fields of fire and move very slowly to keep a lot of TUs so you may have a chance to react. Or just rush in, use scanners and hope for the best
The best being having lots of flying gals who can't die by katanas!
@"liquid oxygen": True, I misspoke when I called it that, I meant
this. I called it sci-fi tech simply because only in sci-fi do you see it used. Reading the wiki, it seems unlikely that "working tech" for an actual dive was produced, the challenge of evacuating CO2 seems to remain.
Also, although it sounds like something that should interest ocean scientists, most of us don't actually dive, or study the deep sea. The most interesting stuff happens along the coast or on continental shelves, and diving is almost only used to observe flora or slow/unmoving animals. Everything else is just too fast compared to a diver.
The ocean is rather "empty" compared to land, so diving to see something would mean a lot of swimming to not see much (especially when you take into account time to go up and down and how dark the ocean is. TftD XCom must have had some spotlights floating over their sites, the idea of light depending on the day/night makes very little sense past 100m, maybe ~0-1% of the light makes it). The ones most likely to be interested are deep sea mining and oil drilling companies, so they could send divers directly to the bottom.
Anyhow..! Interesting topics for Piratez..! Dioxine, when can we get deep sea suits for the gals to recover crafts shot above the oceans?
Also, we could crash one of the Deep One's party!
