Gorlom Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Yes, a lot of people have problems with that. Apparently CTDs corrupt saves so that loading them causes CTDs. There is a fix that might fix some but not all CTD issues. Some issues can be avoided by not shooting at aliens when you get 0% chance to hit or no % is shown at all. I would suggest you visit the bug report forum and find Comassions master bug thread (not the stickied one) he has a link to the fix and has a collection of the current reported bugs for Version 12. maybe you can se how to avoid some of them.

Corporal Hicks Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I have been playing the new build in the last couple of days, haven't had any crashes so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonie Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I have been playing the new build in the last couple of days, haven't had any crashes so far. Hahahahahahahaha, good one. No really. Your not joking are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Hicks Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 No I'm not joking. The only bug that still remains is the firing mode one, I can't change between single and burst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonofwrath Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Press 'B'. I just 'suppressed' some enemies (and a civilian lol) for the first time! Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Hicks Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Hi! I have to take back what I said about the game (running smoothly with no crashes). It seems that I can't load the games saved during battles, the game crashes. Only the games saved at geoscape seem to load. Also, I have been trying to play the game in the last couple of hours, but I had so many crashes during the battles that I got fed up and gave up... The crashes were happening for no apparent reason, right now I was shooting a supressed sebilian and the game just crashed, and was the last alien to kill so I got really angry and quit trying to play...

thothkins Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 sorry to hear that Corporal. I hope you weren't too upset. I'd hate to think you nuked your computer from orbit. It's the only way to be sure (that you will not worry about bugs again). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorlom Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Avoid shooting at aliens with 0% chance to hit and with missing %. use nades instead to kill those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippery Jim Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Damn, finally got around to installing Desura and collecting my kickstarter "gift" but don't have enough time to play it. I need more free time to satisfy my need to execute aliens! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Just kidding heh) Hummm, I noticed that!! It was missing the % chance of hit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corporal Hicks Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 GAME OVER indeed... Sadly! I was giving another go and got pissed again! Another bug to the bug thread: DON'T SAVE before a terror mission, if you load the game you won't be able to play it. A terror mission just popped up, then I save the game before launching the chinook. Ok... Chinook aproaches the terror site and as soon as it reaches it, it get's gunned down by an UFO (out of nowhere). I got pissed and load the game, Ok... There the Chinook goes again, scorted by the F-17 this time, but when it reaches the terror site, it stays frozen there until the mission ends (thru tactical nuclear strike, wich me likes by the way lol, but nooooooooo, not this time!)

Jonlissla Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I have to take back what I said about the game (running smoothly with no crashes). Sad to hear that. Was kind of surprised at first when you wrote that the game went smoothly, but I guess you just had a lot of luck. The current version is, to be honest, quite unplayable, atleast for longer sessions.

xcom Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 (edited) All sounding good Chris! I sure am looking forward to fighting them Reapers! (My favourite mission types in the Original X-COM was Terror Missions in which involved Chryssalids.) What are the chances of us getting post game DLC in which we can have those Reaper Hive Missions? I really loved the sound of that! Of course no pressure intended I know that your priorities are to get the game done![/Quote]I would like to see Reaper Hive Missions in a DLC too ! Excellent idea !

Guest Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 The current version is, to be honest, quite unplayable, at least for longer sessions. Yeah, I can manage about 5 minutes before a CTD event, think it might be best to wait for a beta release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Yeah, I can manage about 5 minutes before a CTD event, think it might be best to wait for a beta release. pretty disappointing to hear. I've not been able to devote ,much time over the last couple of weeks to the game. By the time I got round to it 12 was coming out. Ah, well I suppose I'll see how far I get...

Gorlom Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Couldn't you just re-download the kickstarter demo if the version 12 build is completely unplayable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuman Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Kinda defeating the purpose of being alpha testers........... Ok I'll keep my big mouth shut now:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanwei Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 anyone can advise on the new build release? v12 is great if the save games worked 90% of the time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 There isn't a release schedule that's set in stone. It can be a week, it could be two weeks, and sometimes a month has gone past before a new build was released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 Yeah I took the weekend off. I'm working on another release at the moment, but that involves putting in all of the Kickstarter soldiers and that has involved pulling together a master spreadsheet of all the people who want Kickstarter rewards (which has taken most of the day). It should be out in the next day or two though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flufball Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I have to say, I do enjoy suppression, it actually feels worthwhile shooting at things, even when I miss. Female soldiers are a welcome addition as well as a touch nostalgic (and I have to be honest, I'm baffled that people want rid of them), even if they are all called Katrine or Jane in my current save-game. I'm largely impressed with the game, for an alpha release it leaves me quite confident of the future. Yeah I took the weekend off.

targetbsp Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 and I have to be honest, I'm baffled that people want rid of them No-on ever wanted rid of them. They didn't want them added in the first place. The point was that re-doing all the graphics as per the original plan was a HUGE investment that would have eaten into resources that could have been spent in improving the game in other ways. As it happens they came up with a design to avoid doing that and kept everyone happy so it's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
