danube Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I stopped playing this game about 6 months ago because of crashes on my windows 7 desktop. Couple days ago, I decided to give this game ago once more, thinking the bugs would be fixed. Right after the first UFO crashsite battle, my game crashes. Well good thing the game autosaves after the battle too. So I load the game from after the battle and start playing again. Second UFO crash site...game crashes again after I win the battle. This is on my windows 8 desktop. Game is unplayable at this point. Unless I am doing something completely wrong, I dont know how anyone can be playing this game right now. Since I downloaded this game a couple days ago, I'm assuming its 17.6 with the hotfix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 If you follow the bug forum at all, you will see that the bugs of 6 months ago are in general not the bugs of now. It's true the game crashes a lot, but it crashes for different reasons now than it did then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danube Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 i don't really understand the point you're making....so you're telling me this game has so many bugs that even after 6 months of bug fixes its still got so many bugs that its still unplayable? great.

Arturius Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 It is not really a game yet. It's an alpha version of something that will be a game. I suggest you try the latest alpha build. It's quite stable (despite occasional CTD upon loading game). And if you want to save yourself some cursing and swearing I suggest you wait for the final release.

Max_Caine Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 "six months of bug fixes?". The developers haven't spent six months doing nothing but fixing bugs! Bugs fixed during one stage of development are in general not the same bugs that cause issues at this point of development. But as Arturius says, you may as well wait for the release of the game, as from the tone of your posts your are unhappy with the alpha.

mace6442 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 It's an Alpha. If you are logging on to play the game you will be disappointed as it's not ready yet. Some people may find they get further than others due to conflicts due to spacific computer set-ups and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oracle1990 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Try to start a new game, not start a saved gamed that MIGHT contain some errors. And by the way, Windows 7 alone contain a lot of bugs, check Windows 7 too (I am running Windows 7 too, and it alone give me headache).
