I'd ask on the pavonis forum

Our official announcement regarding the XCOM 2 expansion and whether Long War 2 and our other mods will be updated to support it is that we have nothing to announce at this time. When there's something to provide we'll be sure and post here. Sorry we don't have anything more right now.

man i am fiending for this update.

" let's wait long war 2 " ... 1 hour later : " ok let's try wotc ... just a bit " ... 5 minute later : " nooooo you can't do that stupid idiot ! you have to wait long war 2 ! ... ok im actually waiting for long war then ... "

It's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard to wait ... I hope that they will bring us back the mod asap :I

for me ti feels like i am adding one mod and removing all the others, and thats just not worth it. running 200+ mods right now smooth as butter. the pack is listed. highly recommend it if you are wiating till mods update.

Quite disappointing answer here from the LW2 devs. Reminds me at an "1.April's fool joke". We really should expect that an official mod like LW2 supports all official DLC's out of the box from the release start on.
I will certainly NOT buy the new "Chosen DLC" before LW2 gets updated properly. This is really disappointing from Fireaxis, letting all its loyal customers down who supported them from the start.

Official mod? What are you even going on about. LW2 devs are free to do as they want. Be greatful that they are donating their time to make your game enjoyable.

LW2 is indeed an "official mod" they had access to the base game prior to launch, they literally had day one mods available.

Yes, they were paid to make the Mod for Xcom2 since it is considered "VANILLA" to play Long War on Xcom. The developers said "Our game is like a 10 hour tutorial for Long War". So yes, we had expected Day 1 release and more then just "We have nothing to announce".

Maybe so, but let's be fair here; WotC's code base is so altered as to be an entirely new beast. They had some pieces ready to go at launch, but it took the better part of what, a year before we got Long War 2 as a whole? Yeah, I'm not at all surprised that LW2 does not support WotC out the gate.

So maybe ease off that whole "letting us down" pedal there. LW2 will probably get a WotC-compatible version before the other major overhaul mods like Spectrum.

INeedAnAdult is right guys, it's certainly better they take their time making it as good as it can be, instead of rushing it out the door as soon as possible, in a completely unfinished state. lots of people waited patiently for LW2 to be developed, an as WotC is almost as big as the base game, it will probably take them as long

It would mean remaking a significant portion of the mod, possibly from scratch, so I can see the hesitation to announce something on a whim.

That said, if they have no official comment, it could easily mean that they're in discussions (internally or with Firaxis) and not allowed to say anything yet. I find it less likely that Pavonis, who was given early access to the game, is just getting the cold shoulder after such a major release. With the ideas taken from LW and put ingame, that would be really bad publicity.

they're probably consulting on balance issues and the like i would assume, if what you say is the case
