New LP: TFTD TWoTS: The world of terrifying silence
« on: August 26, 2018, 10:48:55 pm »
Hi all,

my Area 51 LP is nearing completion (in 2-4 weeks)... so I'd like to gather some feedback on what would you like to see next (if anything)?

So far I've played
- OG xcom
- OG tftd
- OpenXcom xcom
- OpenXcom final mod pack
- OXCE/OXCE+ piratez
- OXCE+ area 51 (in progress)

Both FMP and PirateZ have evolved enough over the years to warrant a new campaign, but new mods and ideas are also welcome.

My secret tip would be TWoTS... but I'll let you decide.

PS: please don't write more than 2 suggestions per post... I am aware of the available mods and TCs, I just need help selecting one.

Xeno Operations could do with some more airtime if you're feeling like more vanilla-plus, I've even some OXCE+ additions to it if you want.

I'd recommend 40k since I've been working on it, but bulletdesigner is going to do some extensive changes to the tech tree soon.

After Area 51, FMP might kinda feel like more of the same.

My top two votes are TWoTS because TftD has a close place in my heart.  Otherwise, X-PirateZ, Season Two leads to much more nuanced gameplay imo, and I'd very much enjoy it.

I would like to see a Warhammer 40K LP. Not sure if it is a valid suggestion, since it's not on your list, but it's an excellent mod and I don't think anyone has played it publicly.

If not that, I would like another Piratez LP - it is very different now from the previous campaign.

I believe TWoTS would be an excellent choice.

Judging from you list TFTD is rather underrepresented.

I am interested in From the Apocalypse and XOps, but TWoTS also sounds good to get some TFTD in there.

40k one seems super fun.
Xops is awesome, but sadly is not in active development.

TWoTS won.

LP starts in 3-4 weeks.

I need a few volunteers (=fish food) for the first few episodes, life expectancy zero.

PS: after years of playing Superhuman, I am switching to Veteran... Superhuman gives too much loot and makes the economy way too easy... I will try if decreasing amount of enemies helps balancing it a little (in favor of the aliens of course).

Sign me up! Clones are fine, can't wait to shoot (or stab/stun/blow up) some aliens.
