Integrity Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) In honor of the PRELOAD that started today, I'm going to start collecting some data for my imminent screenshot log of this game which will assuredly be wonderful. I am going to ASSUME the FOLLOWING, and please correct me if you know better: I can NAME MY BASES I can NAME MY SOLDIERS I can CUSTOMIZE MY SOLDIERS to A CERTAIN EXTENT MY SOLDIERS will have CLASSES and THOSE CLASSES will be SNIPER, HEAVY, SUPPORT, ASSAULT, and MEDIC? MEDIC IS UNCONFIRMED MY SOLDIERS will come from COUNTRIES and those COUNTRIES are as of yet not entirely known so if you want to call it pick YOUR FAVORITE and then pick a REALLY BIG COUNTRY like AMERICA or BRITAIN as BACKUP As such, some people I like give me good BASE NAMES (i'm going to be picky about these; dunno how many i get) and give me SOLDIER NAMES with ATTACHED CLASSES. I think soldiers can also have CALLSIGNS separate from their names, so give me those too unless you want me to name your guy "Balcerzak 'Chodelick' Feldspar". And in case you pined for some nostalgia, behold.

Parrhesia Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 god I made some really stupid posts back in that other thread fortunately I went and edited many of them back a while ago so score!

Esau of Isaac Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) Base names: The Aegis Fort Noble Terra Incognita Character names: American Sniper Jarret "Eagle Eye" Falcon: This guy's all business, all the time. The sardonic wit of the team, he can often be heard making inappropriate quips about any recent development. German Assault Erhard "Blitzkrieg" Klein: First to respond and last to think, Klein has a curious tendency to run empty of ammunition at the worst possible moment. His swift, uncompromising response to any problems that arise often border on the obscene. English Medic Elliot "Pill Pusher" Fisher: Naive to a fault, Fisher operates with optimism in even the most torturous of times. A lightning-fast thinker yet a bit absentminded, Fisher always seems to have a cure for whatever's ailing another in his big bag of goodies he keeps by his side.

Ike-Mike Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Friedrich "Graf" Wutzenstein Have me be one of the supports. Also call one of the bases Most Baller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) Also call one of the bases Most Baller. Okay, Fort Most Ballerest is starting to sound tempting. EDIT: furry-chin do you recall off the top of your head what nationalities people can call? EDIT2: oh also you can call genders for soldiers, a thing which i will default on if nobody calls Edited October 6, 2012 by Mr. Sparkles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esau of Isaac Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Friedrich "Graf" Wutzenstein Have me be one of the supports. Also call one of the bases Most Baller. There is only one base in the game. CANADIAN MALE HEAVY Doga "Shaved Bear" Block (Russia if Canada isn't around, with permission to rename Blockovich) Fort STEINFESTUNG I don't think you choose within continents where to place your base. If you choose Europe, for example, I think I remember it putting it somewhere in Germany. I don't remember getting a good glance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you choose Europe, for example, I think I remember it putting it somewhere in Germany. I don't remember getting a good glance. I was pretty uninspired for a base name really. I just took a German name because I know Integrity is studying that, plus I think we can all agree it sounds cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) There is only one base in the game. So there IS only one base per game. I knew about the start position lock, didn't know that. That makes it EVEN MORE IMPERATIVE that we have an awesome base name like Fort Most Ballerest.

Rehab Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I won't force this on anybody else but I think it's my destiny to name a base I have one request, which I will attempt to take up if I can pick up the game: AMERICAN HEAVY WEAPONS GUY(/POSSIBLY ASSAULT?)

Parrhesia Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 (edited) EDIT: furry-chin do you recall off the top of your head what nationalities people can call? I don't, but I do know Australia was one of them, and I seem to remember there being a few fairly obscure ones too (I want to say Romania was there, or something like that? I mean, it's literally just a patch on their sleeve or something that looks like a flag, so they'd be pretty diverse) Also throw Irish Heavy Monica 'Subtlety' O'Rourke and Norwegian/Danish/Swedish Whateverclasshasgrenades Snorri 'The' Cool onto the pile of more-red-shirted-than-other-redshirts. we're going to have a lot of logjamming if people actually SURVIVE missions in this X-COM Edited October 7, 2012 by Furetchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balcerzak Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Until and unless I change my mind/think of something better: American Medic/Support Balcerzak "Doc" Feldspar Will be back with more alternate redshirts when I have some more time.

Ein Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 AMERICAN MALE ASSAULT Ein 'Silver' Rose I wanna be in the middle of the action shooting stuff. If you want of course.

Integrity Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 (edited) Ein 'Silver' Rose I am illogically fond of this name. In other news, I split the redshirts column into two sections: the first one will have everybody's self-inserts (in your case, esau, i picked the sniper because i'd have no other snipers yet) and the second will have all the fun ones like Snorri 'The' Cool for in case I need more.
