Long War EW 1.0 released (165 comments)
Version 1.0 is a complete installer and can be installed over any Beta 15 or release candidate version without wrecking existing campaigns. The readme lists some issues you may encounter with existing campaigns if upgrading from some of the older 15s.
The only changes from RC3 to 1.0 are some minor localization fixes in Spanish and Polish. Other fixes are in the readme and Beta15f feedback thread.
We'll continue to support and update Long War EW if any major stability or gameplay issues are found. These will need to be consistently reproducible and may require savegames for us to be able to address.
... I'm also pleased to announce we've started up a web site for new indie development company, Pavonis Interactive, at www.pavonisinteractive.com. While we'll continue to engage players here and on the XCOM Reddit, we hope you'll join us there! We've set up a player forum where we'll update on our various projects. We've also put in place a signup for our mailing list, which we'll use to announce our upcoming Kickstarter (if you've previously emailed the terrainvictus address, then you're already on it).
Thanks to everyone for their support and feedback over the last three years. In that time, Long War has grown from a simple set of config changes to a huge overhaul with contributors on every inhabited continent. We couldn't have made it happen without you, the players, and we hope you'll stay with us as we create new stories to tell and challenges to throw at you.

To play with the alternate settings, go to your version of:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XEW\XComGame\Config\
Rename the file "DefaultGameCore.ini" to "AltDefaultGameCore.alt" or something like that. The goal is disable the usual settings file.
Rename the file "DefaultGameCore - Training.ini" to "DefaultGameCore.ini" -- this enables the alternate settings file to be used by the game.
After doing this, you MAY have to also delete the file XComGameCore.ini in your version of ...
C:\Users\John\Documents\My Games\XCOM - Enemy Within\XComGame\Config
This last step is troubleshooting and shouldn't be necessary for most players, but sometimes the game fails to update the file it actually uses (XComGameCore.ini) with changes to the file users should edit (DefaultGameCore.ini), and this will ensure that the update does take place.
The missions themselves are fun, especially when you don't have time to send a full squad so you do the mission covert with 1 shinobi.
It sure had potential but LW1 is much better.
1.) Accuracy - These troopers are supposed to be the best of the best from around the world. Navy Seals, Army Rangers, Marine Green Berets, Spetnaz, etc. Yet none of these troopers can hit the broad side of a barn. I would like to reset accuracy for weapons to vanilla settings. Where would that info be located? A trained spec ops sniper in rl can hit a dime sized moving target at 1000 meters (3000 feet, or more than a half of a mile away), Navy Seals must score at least 95% accuracy on their marksmen training tests to even be considered for the position within the ranks of this group. 36% chance to hit is not realistic, it is my drunken red neck neighbor's accuracy rating. How do I go about making it more realistic?
2.) Meld - The 20 per mission was hardly enough to fully modify more than a handful of your squad as is in vanilla, 2-6 per mission is REALLY BAD. not to mention fatigue and injury can keep a trooper down for over a month. In XCOM times this is a eternity.
3.) Enemy HP - 50 hp 8 armor targets? Seriously only 3 squad member types can phase this, even fully upgraded SHIV units can do all of 2 dmg to it assuming they are fully upgraded and can even hit the thing (SEE #1), meaning it will take 10-25 turns to kill it. Aint no one got time for that. Training file is far better minus the really bad shots that everyone seems to be.
4.) Remove Fatigue timers - So a Elite, highly trained, spec ops operative now needs 3 days of rest after 10 minutes of combat? Wonders how wars ever ended... Oh all the soldiers needed a rest for 3 years because they just spent a year in combat. Yep how do I remove these?
5.) Everything else about this mod is perfect. Those 4 caveats don;t make the game more realistic, they make it more tedious. Squad size is GREAT, skill trees amazing, more enemies is awesome, they AI of the enemies even feels better for some reason. So if someone could very kindly point me to a guide to fix these 4 things
Also in real combat the vast majority of shots miss, So no it's not unrealistic at all.
