A change in the code so that your your highly trained troops don’t keep hitting their own comrades who are no where near the target! Especially where HEVY Launchers are involved.
-
Sort out grenade launcher troops hitting their own troops when their right next to them!!!

Any update on grenades and launchers? So fed up of soldiers killing their own troops who are right next to them!

X2 have to be 1.000 % better than it´s predecessor. And it looks like now it will be the same like it´s predecossor with some little improvements. ATM it dosen´t make a difference if you play the predecessor or the new version downgrade to the old stile.
And this is not a good development. There are the promised improvements needed which get founded on kickstarter. That´s the Minimum we need to get an improvement to the old game. If the downgrade-Development goes onward, Kickstarter will stopp that because they monitor the Development too. And personaly I see that comming.
I really think you need to read Kickstarter small print and understand how it applies. Any project that is backed can be changed through development, and like a Goldhawk do when they listen to their backers changed through feedback. Backing a Kickstarter Project is a gamble, it’s your choice as the backer if you except the risks. Unlike many companies Goldhawk do listen to the majority and if able do change what they can. You may not be happy with the result, but in the end if you receive a usable product at the end of the process that’s what a Kickstarter is.

I accept all the above, but I can take out the side of a UFO with the grenade launcher but not a wooden sided building? Also the easiest type of grenade first produced was a combination of HE and Frag not either or. Perhaps I’m expecting too much realism from the tactical game with different wall structures behaving differently? Fair enough frag would do sod all against brick and concrete but wood would be fairly much toast (misquote time.... “the alien is toast”!
-
Even frag would pierce a wooden siding and effect the Target the other side, I would also suspect the first grenade made for the launcher would be the simpler to produce blast type of grenade.But having said that the different types of grenade suggested by Max would be an ideal solution.

Should grenades (both) be able to take out wooden walls? looking at the sawmill map here. I know not brick but wooden sidings should be destroyable.
-
Any update on this Chris?
-
Found the above as well.
-
Just noticed you can see the animation of your trooper just as it does something stupid. Bends over aims at the ground and fires. Perhaps a minimum miss distance?
-
And yet again very first mission totally screwed. Hevy Launcher guy 3rd out of the chopper standing on the ramp, fires a snap shot .......at his feet that kills a third of the team. Please get this fixed.
-
Oh I realise it’s a Beta, finding things like the Grenade Launcher Goof is what it’s there for. But for some reason nearly every time I try using the launchers early in game they goof and poof! a big section of my squad has gone. Perhaps it’s the tactics I’m using, but the game should be able to manage multiple tactics. Will keep persevering!
-
Any update on this yet, really putting me off playing, sorry.
-
If an aircraft is shot down shouldn’t there be a chance that the pilot ejected? Perhaps new missions to rescue downed pilots?

Purely from an obersvaetional point the problem I’ve noticed seems to be objects and LoS effect the scatter more than anything. Can grenades and especially launchers be used in an indirect way? Soldier A says there’s an alien the other side of the wall Soldier B lobe a grenade over it to flush it out or mallet it? Grenades tend to fly in an arc up and over, not in a straight line is the game treating them as a straight shot?

Did you ever consider that the HEVY launcher may have been introduced to the Xenonauts by an Alien tech infiltration unit?!
Well if they did was one of the most devastating weapons they ever deployed!
-
The miss chance and supposed random scatter of the fired grenade is awesomely stupid, if the chance in real life was like this the army would be running out of troops and the government would be calling an extremely urgent enquiry!

Edit: Arrghhhhh just gone back to Steam and it’s there! End Edit! Have all the new codes gone out? to Kickstarter backers? Can’t seem to have or access the new game, could well be me having a senior moment!

Thanks for the heads-up. I've taken down that form now and you're correct that it shouldn't have allowed you to purchase the game, however now you have you're entitled to a key like everyone else. Again, I'll follow this up with Xsolla. My preferred solution is to send everyone a fresh email and hopefully you'll be included on that, but we'll see what happens.
If you don't get sent a key at the end of September for whatever reason then get in touch with me and I'll get you sorted out.
Just to check - you've got an Xsolla pre-order, not a Kickstarter pre-order? If so then it's concerning you've not recieved and email because it means you probably won't get the actual key when it gets emailed to you either. If you paid with Paypal etc, does that have a different email address associated with it that it might have been sent to?
I honestly can’t remember which one I have! Just checked I’m a Kickstarter backer......sorry.....
-
Checked all my folders no email?
-
When should we receive the emails with the choices? Many thanks Chris!
-
The “last one” is an actual sprung arm that allows troops to carry heavier tools and weapons inc LMGs. Harness with an arm mounted on the back.
-
Not a dig at anyone! But while this is going to be an extremely enjoyable game is there going to be a slant towards “realism” or “game world” restrictions in it? What I’m really looking at is the effect and use of weaponry and the tactics as used in the real world. For instances the limit of just a pistol with a shield and not an smg or rifle with it? (First pic I just couldn’t resist!). What is the level of the starting troops in the game, where are they recruited from? Elite military units? Police units? Close range/point blank fire effects?

Exactly the above, minimum distance to arm in flight. Easily down I should think.
