#45 ADVENT Blacksite (Syken & TapCat Let's Play Xcom2)

If Codex Primes can duplicate on taking damage, that could spiral out of control really quickly lol.

Great episode, that final pod reveal was hilarious. I think the Icarus jump only worked under the skylight?

Jessica: "Guys I'm hit pretty bad, I need medical aid"
Wei: "There isn't a field medic on this mission"
Heather: "There isn't?"
Jessica: "That's fine, I can patch myself up, pass me the first aid spray"
Wei and Heather 😬
Wei: "Well you see...."
Heather: "We didn't bring any"
Jessica: "What?"
Heather: "I thought Wei was gonna bring it so I brought tracer rounds" 😅
Jessica looks at Wei
Wei: "I was gonna bring it but I wanted to try the WAR suit and it doesn't have a pocket for and extra spray so I didn't bring it, sorry" 😔
Jessica: "If I die I'm haunting both of you" 😑

This was an crazy mission, you even added the Avatar fight which I feel was a scary choice. Great job keeping us alive and progressing the story 👍

One of the BEST episodes of this series! I am so happy Jessica made it home, it would be awful to loose her.

When you went to skull jack the codex, I immediately went "Hey, unless Syken already did that in one of the missing episodes, that's gonna give you an Avatar to deal with."
I'll admit to laughing quite a bit at that point 😅😅😅

I like to clear the whole outside first and then enter the building from all sides (preferably one ranger goes in while everyone else shoots from the skylight.) My most anxious period is the final evac.

Man that was excruciating. Kept barely alive soldier alive and finished after facing disaster. Those 3 shot Advent guys are ungodly. Enjoyed seeing (and hearing) you bring new meaning to the phrase "famous last words". Still and all, mission finished with no death's. Well done. Good vid

Super long missions are very tiring to play. Can you allow yourself to take a break mid-mission?

A great episode, you must have been drained at the end. I’m happy your sniper made it out.

Hey Tap great video! FYI if you want to name a weapon you can on the weapon upgrade toggle.

Almost two hours of TapCat? Sign me up!

I think banish is really good without any weapon mods. With mods? it is game breaking. Bonus if your reaper can get inventory items from the training centre, but I find that is a rare ability to be offered.

The units that shoot 3 times are the alien equivalent of the reaper. Welcome to being on the wrong end of Banish!

Haven't seen any Ethereals for awhile. Did you guys disable that mod from the campaign?

Woah - long mission! You’ve got this😎👌🏼

‘’I am of the opinion at this point that we probably have cleaned the place out’ 😂😂😂😂 absolute classic

This should be fine makes me think of the meme of the cartoon dog sitting at the table in the burning house 😂

Not content with turning civilians into faceless, Advent now does that with their own soldiers for absolutely no good reason...

Immagine being that first soldier through the door and seeing the veritable PARTY the enemy was having in there...

Honeslty it was a little reckless of you not bring any healing kits in this mission with so many enemies but I understand the forgetfulness. Either way, that guy shooting 3 times was pretty tough. Good thing the game is pretty bad at planning and he didn't target the person literally flanked...

Was *struggling with a Blacksite mission last night. Thought to myself: “Let’s go watch some TapCat Blacksite missions and try to figure out what I’m doing wrong.” Then lo and behold, here’s a brand new one! Thanks, @TapCat!

*I really struggle with how best to engage pods INSIDE a building when I’m outside and have already been revealed. Enemies have SO much cover in that situation :/

Just got here and saw the time... How frienking long is this mission? Damn.
