  • Oh, and this thread is now at 300 posts.

    Good thing there aren't any C Beasts in Aftermath.
    I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

    • An expansion is only mentioned on forums, so I do not think that it is official. Lots of ideas, floating around.
      Perhaps!

      • If Aftermath sells enough there will be one, you can count on it.

          "Target is dead"
          "Enemy down, Sir"
          and so on down the line. Well now you only need to confirm once for the whole lot of them.
          yep, i know that. but that was no problem anymore even with 1.1 after i turned off some switches in the settings.
          eg. target not available, no commands, completed, enemy killed, etc.

          but i do like it a lot more, that just one guy sais it now.

            you can see by the color of their shields which armor (sky, bio, sun) they've got. the check the specs. several sniper rifle shots will do the job, but if they're near you'll need something a lot faster.
            most effective: overwhelming force... unfortunatly that doesn't work well against the final type of transgenants you'll meet

              • You can switch pistols, after shooting one to the other hand. But if you could shoot two pistols, probably so could the aliens.

                The game is kind of comical though, and fun, although.....intense, perhaps, for a game!

                And these aliens are ugly!
                Ha, ha, ha, ha!

                • Comical? You are not referring to the B-Movie like Intro are you Sir? ;=)


                  the Human Enhanced Plasma is a decent Rifle.
                  Seems better than Warp Assault no burst but you can actually reload it :=)

                  The Mutants are much more easy to kill than the Rec's 'specially if you have some Gat's.

                  I have the 'Capture Ferry' Mission now but as I only approach 30 Bases I think I will continue freeing the NonFree World.
                  also I have 3 Patches of Biomass which need to be handled :=)

                  • No, I am referring to the game in general, even though it is bleak. I went back to my old squaddies on the easy game though, because Medium difficultly is harder.
                    I have not had the same squad in the game, since, and I started another couple of games, but I am just restarting, and still not past Area 51.
                    Otherwise there's different moods to the squads in general. I like my clunky squad better.

                    So, I am playing further with that game and doing Area 51 over.
                    Ya, until go back to the medium game.
                    I also played one mission over on that one, but a different soldier died. Thank God!
                    So, one of these days, I start a game, and play it out, no matter who is on the squad.
                    I will keep the easy game though, just to start over with that squad, maybe.

                    See any strange dancing lights in the sky lately?
                    Oh, that dancing light is in the game!
                    Though, at times I may just go outside, and look up, at night -- late!

                    I am just having some preliminary fun with the game.

                    • Oh, I even have had one soldier that sounds like Scotty from StarTrek! Not sure where that game is now!
                      Aye, Sir!


                      What is it?
                      Oh, oh, trouble!

                            Yeah, they sound funny. Esp. when the Indian says: "Hostile spotted!"

                            BTW, does it load on your machines sooo long too? On some missions you can wait for minutes....

                            I had to replay too, because I re-installed my OS two days ago. Lost noone in Area51 (but all went to the hospital then ). However, I lost half of my squad during the first mission inside an UFO. That was really nasty, I did expect a bit more room to move, but they attacked me right next to the entry point....
                            Blah

                              I only have one patch of biomass to contend with. I used to have two. While I would like to say that my fight was going well, I only have one now due to the fact that the biomass joined together. Now all of Australia, the antarctic and a fair portion of Asia are covered.

                              • It does not take too long on my machine, and the game I run at slow speed, since I am slow. 1.8gHz Celeron, which is not a speed machine. Seems like it takes longer to load, but for the most part, not even 30 seconds, probably. More like probably 15 seconds. Seems longer though.
                                The game looks a little fast on my machine. I think with my old 500mHz, fast speed still be fast enough.
                                So, I can keep them moving well enough, at slow speed, and I like that speed.
                                I am still on easy mode, although I started a game on medium level.
                                Missions change (random), but I noticed more towns it seems on medium right away.
                                Taking my time, I guess!
                                UFO entering is something still to research, then I guess, all will go to .......... that place down below!

                                If I can, I'll go from mission to mission for a few then break!
                                I need the break~~~
