Yai...power armor...er...cybersuits I mean. Can't wait.

 
Ooh, Gene Mods and MEC's.  As many soldiers as possible shall have augmented vision, and I'm definitely naming my first MEC trooper "John Rico." :D
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

That's cool. Seems like a full-fledged expansion instead of your average 2-hours-worth DLC.
People are stupid, therefore anything popular is at best suspicious.

666maslo666: Releasing a finished product is not a good thing! It is a modern fad.

SpardaSon21: it seems like you exist in a permanent state of half-joking misanthropy

Axem: when you put it like that, i sound like an insane person

bigchunk1: it's not retarded it's american!
bigchunk1: ...

batwota: steele's maneuvering for the coup de gras
MatthTheGeek: you mispelled grâce
Awaesaar: grace
batwota: oh right :P
Darius: ah!
Darius: yes, i like that
MatthTheGeek: the way you just spelled it it means fat
Awaesaar: +accent I forgot how to keyboard
MatthTheGeek: or grease
Darius: the killing fat!
Axem: jabba does the coup de gras
MatthTheGeek: XD
Axem: bring me solo and a cookie

I was hoping for a remake of Terror from the Deep, but this is way better!  :D

Looks more like you're building bionic soldiers rather than armour.  Though the blurry image of a upper tier cyber trooper looks like a Exo Suit from Ghost in the Shell.  The IGN article has some more detail and screenshots.

All of my soldiers shall be MEC Troopers, and everything shall be augmented.  EVERYTHING!

I want it. I need it. If there's a pre-order, I might pre-order it. Other DLC for the base version? TAKE MY MONEY- we need more games like XCOM:EU.

I dunno. While a whole squad of cyborg commandos sounds awesome, some of the genetic upgrades look really powerful as well. I'll probably wind up using at least a few 'hanzers, seeing as they appear to be actually-useful S.H.I.V. substitutes.

Either way, I'm stoked. This is probably one of the better gaming news pieces I've heard in a while

... meh.

It is just me or does it look like MEC troopers isn't power armor, but hacking off a troopers legs and putting robotic ones there?

I'd love to say this DLC excites me, but I'd be lying.

They said you can finally change the language your soldiers are speaking, a nice upgrade. They are going to nerf the Squadsight+Opportunist combo. Lastly, can't wait to rocket punch a chryssalid in the face.

Opportunist don't get nerfed actually, but squadsight will. It can no longer crit unless you use Headshot. On the other hand, they reduced the snapshot penalty to 10% from 20%, probably because nobody use it.
