When you get a failure because the game/mod's dice rolling ended up in a certain way to guarantee failure with no player input to help alleviate it, that just makes the whole experience feels like a complete waste of time because there's nothing to learn from RNG screwing you in ways you can't control.Įdit: I feel like some people are misunderstanding me, I'm not talking about tactical RNG, I'm talking about strategic RNG. It may sting from the hours spent on it but at least there's usually something you can learn from your mistakes.
Like when you get a failure due to one's own stupidity or because you didn't quite get a mechanic, that's one thing.
Like shit I have more free time than a lot of people and my recent experience of "oh now you want liberation missions so you can have this infiltration on a facility go faster? Lol go fuck yourself" has absolutely infuriated me, if only because I may very well lose a game I have spent 50+ hours on due to RNG completely out of my control. I feel like this misses the point a lot of people dissatisified with Long War 2 is that a lot of people simply do not have the time for all that. What i do now is pick one territory to do every mission possible in to piss them off as much as possible in that region, get it to a good 8 or 9 STR THEN go after the other regions find a lead and liberation missions only. Unless you do every single troop column attack every time a lot of them arent worth it other then for the materials. Sure attacking troop columns reduces the Advent Strength in that region, but it raised vigilance so much that with a week the zone is up 2 more points and doing it entirely defeats the purpose within days. The main difference is that i have learned Attacking troop columns is useless unless you first do a bunch of missions in other zones. I dont have Shadow chamber yet have am only just now starting shadow chamber and dont have gatekeeper mission yet but im doing MUCH better my doom meter isnt even half, I am just about to capture my 2nd Region (My first one got wiped out in a retaliation so its useless now but recovering slowly. I had done blacksite and had the gatekeeper mission qued up and a facility raid mid infiltration but was just over powered and out classed in every way. Last time i was here things were falling apart for me I had full Mag weapons/ A few psi and the shadow chamber and my Doom meter was 90% full and i was losing 5 out of 6 missions Im on attempt 5 and i made it to September. It really comes down to learning how to manage Advent Strength.
