  1. So I started playing X-Division and oh boy, it is insanely difficult even on the easiest option. I love some hard game but I this one feels extremely unfair. I am getting massacred on the 1st mission!! Why is the game throwing reptilians and reapers at me on the 1st missions? What happened with slowly introducing the enemies? 1st wave being the grays (sectoids), then after a good while the game starts introducing the next wave of tougher enemies.
  2. Hello guys! After 10 years I am returning to Xenonauts to finally play the finished game, this time I have installed the X-Division mod! To my surprise (pleasant surprise) there is a Xenonauts 2 in the works!! NICE! What do I need to do to play the beta? Can someone point me to the right place? Best regards
  3. Damn, I'm at december right now, and the difficulty just went sky high!! I thought I was safe, but now there's at least half dozen medium sized UFOs flying around, with scorts, even with a squadron of two corsairs and a foxtrot, the autoresolve chance was 21%!!!! help!
  4. I just noticed that the mission/kill counts of the charlie is always 0, is that normal? I know it can't kill, but at least the missions should count, right? Cheers
  5. Hey guys! Today I decided to play xenonaus after several months since last time and I've gotta say: it's looking awesome!! I had given up cause of the bugs, but now it's very smooth and polished! I just love the artwork that has been done in the Xenopedia entries, the autopsies drawings are very good. Only thing I think it's weird is that the autopsies and items seems to teletranport to base after the combat, the charlie barely left the crash site and all the items and bodies recovered are at base, not to mention if you open the soldier screen, they are all there!!! Even though they are inside the chopper returning to base. Another thing I noticed is that the shield is kind of buggy, it doesn't appear on the soldier's sprite (looks like it doesn't load properly), and some times it appears out nowhere. Still, awesome progress! Cheers
  6. I can't believe this thread is still going lol, had to log in just to post this peace and nuke everything form orbit
  7. For me definetely late 80´s early 90´s, I loved my NES and SNES era, best gaming times
  8. Sup thot?? Yes, that´s the idea behind it! I was thinking something like: Amphetamin Pill - Increased Strenght and AP for, let´s say, 5 turns. As a penalty, the original values for AP and Strenght are reduced by some ammount after effect wears off (let´s say a third) til the end of round. Morphine Shot - Soldier doesn´t loose HP when bleeding. Effect could last for some turns, and as a penalty, soldier would drop unconscious after effect wears off. Would need ally to pick him up and drag to Chinook. Serotonin- Dopamin Booster - Soldier becomes imune to panic attacks - morale goes up for 5 turns. As a penalty, well, I have to think about it haha Well, that´s what I was thinking about, simple stuff, nothing complicated
  9. Just wondering if it´s possible, at this stage of development, to add things like adrenalin shots, some pills, etc... that would make the character temporarily stronger, focused, fearless, etc... This would come in handy at the beginning of the game, where the characters are weak. Of course they would cause some kind of penalty after the effect wears off.
  10. Why won´t you just pretend that, when the UFO crashes, It creates an EMP that fries all electronics in 10km radius? heehee
  11. 7:00am and still drinking? This sounds like me!! lol Come on, give him a break! lol
  12. Wow, holy mother of F&^$! That terror mission was just insane, the game is still very unbalanced it seems
  13. Talking about retro games, I've finally bought, after 20 years, an original nintendo! I got a top loader for a great price and a bunch of games I used to play when was a kid, good nostalgia times ahead!! I always wanted an original nintendo, when I was a kid my parents gave me a clone system, it was ok, but my friends had the toaster and I was envy! haha
  14. One lady I enjoy watching doing "man jobs" and bad ass characters is Julianne Moore
  15. Found it! Alien Ressurrection for PS1, best alien game I've ever played!!! Ahhh nostalgia!! Gonna download the PS1 emulator and Alien Ressurrection ROM ASAP!!!
  16. Couldn't agree more!! What a pity... I was trying to remember a aliens game I used to play that I loved, I remember it was playstation (it's not alien trilogy), I googled but couldn't find anything. I remember that if you let the facehuggers get you, you would pass out and wake up with the alien inside you. You had to remove it, there was a time limit, like a bar or something... Do you remember wich game was that???
  17. @Jean-Luc Wow, after watching this video I got even more intrigued... WTF happened?? LOL The work in progress looks 10000 better than the final game!!!
  18. I'm still in the 1st level and gave up... What a waste of money. Yeah man, I was so impressed with the demos footage too!! This is really unbelievable... I was excited until I encountered the first alien, from there I thought it was just plain crap... It was cool seeing the names of hicks, gorman, apone, etc... on the lockers, the bottom half of bishop splattered on the ground, etc... But the combat is disgusting, and I hate checkpoint system games. There is this alien, right on the 1st mission, wich drops from the ceiling and come on, that's a breed of The Flash with Xeno! The thing moves so fast it's hard to shoot, and it kills you very fast, I think I had to play about 10 times to get past it, and when I finally past that room, I died again and had to start from the last checkpoint.... then I exited the game and never played it again.
  19. Anyone playing this?? Man, I really tried to like it, but it's just terrible... And I'm a big fan of the franchise!!! I was so anticipating this game, and now frustrated. The best aliens franchise game I ever played was alien trilogy on PS1.
