  1. This has been such a great series. Very entertaining commentary, great content, very intelligent use of editing for overlays and fun replays. Your speech was very understandable despite your mic. I really look forward to your next series and I would rather like it to start in april.

    That overwatch! 🙂

  2. At 9:30, you consider an HE grenade on the sectoid car cover, but since it doesn't reach them, you don't. If you had, though, the car would've possibly caught on fire, forcing the sectoids to move or die, and since they're flashed, they can't move to good cover. They'd either have to step out or dash, and be easily flank-able.

  3. It's been an awesome series. Not only has it been incredibly entertaining (still laughing at episode 6), but I learned a lot about xcom so far, and I'd like to see you continue the series. I think of the three options continuing a new campaign from the end of March would be the best choice.

    Personally, I think the first few missions/events are samey. A recap of the first few months would be nice though.

    And I'd recommend against playing a buggy game. It can be frustrating when things that are out of your control cause you to lose.

  4. I Love your content!! I think the work you put into your videos is amazing great sense of Humor Thanks so much for the content I can not wait to see more !! Option 1 for sure. 🙂

  5. Just, whatever you do, keep on making xcom long war vids! First few videos I thought your voice was funny, but then suddenly apparently new mic and everything sorted itself out. It's really REALLY weird and not logical in any way what so ever how being recorded clearly gives you a clearer voice.

  6. I absolutly HATE this stupid cameraleading with paniced/acidized Soldiers. Hey 4 ppl panicing..lets waste time by showing you who are the weaklings of the team…

  7. Another great video with solid gameplay. I recently downloaded the mod and find it very impressive. It is very tough, even on the lowest difficulty, but never really comes across as being unfair or cheap (unlike the vanilla game a lot of times). I cant wait to see how you handle things as the difficulty ramps up throughout the campaign.

  8. I vote you start a new campaign, but rush through the first few months posting highly edited videos only showing the important bits… like highlights reels. Then return to normal videos.

  9. I definitely recommend making a short "clips of Long War's insanity" or something akin to it alongside option 2 (already voted for it). That way, we could get the best of both worlds, and you won't have to worry about keeping us up to date on all the new recruits. One video to encompass all up to March, and then Season 2 thereafter. Hope to see you there.
    Good luck, Commander.
