  1. I havent used pistols yet, but i very rarely use them in any type of game.

    My snipers also have rocket launchers as their backup/second weapon too, ive been wondering if you get more weapons as the game gets further in,

    I was in my teens when playing the original and dont think i ever got all the weapons researched.

  2. On the traintrack map, I had a soldier behind a single level crate crouched down and went to shoot an alien and it shot the crate in front of him.

    I have to stand up and then move 2 tiles to the left or right to get a line of fire, from behind a single crate. Then I have to run back behind and crouch again to avoid getting hit myself.

    I also posted this in the guruofreason post in Suggestions & Features and told to repost it here as maybe a bug.

  3. What about when your soldier iscrouched behind a single level crate and go to shoot and it shoots the object in front of him.

    This happened to me on the rail road map, I have to stand up and then move 2 tiles to the left or right to get a line of fire, from behind a single crate. then i would run back behind and crouch again to avoid getting hit myself.

    Is that how it is supposed to be?

  4. so it comes the time in every older graphics card's life that it has to be replaced and forgotten about...

    or in my scenario taken out of my rig and putting in my son's PC because his old 8800GT stopped working when the smoke escaped from it

    So I need to get a new one for my machine, my current card is a Gigabyte which has never let me down, but I have heard good things about Gainward. Does anyone have any thoughts or input? Questions that would help me decide easier.

    I was looking @ the Gainward GeForce® GTX 660 Ti Phantom, it had good reviews in a few of the magazines ive read, and it getting close to my $300 price point, but it is a lot of coin for a graphics card IMO and I was wondering if you guys have any idea on if there is something better bang for buck.

    Thanks

  5. I personally LOVED those games. Except aftermath because fuck me, that game embodies undetected mid-end game imbalance due to no one play testing the thing before release. Their basic plasma gun was a splash damage grenade launcher that could one shot an entire tightly packed squad. Had rocket launchers with a magazine of six rockets and the refire rate of 0.5 seconds. The reticulans were SO overpowered the only way you could win is to toss a smoke grenade in the room which makes aiming impossible and then throwing all the grenades into that smoke and hope everything dies.

    I couldn't have said it better myself

    ROFL

  6. Is an oatcake a biscuit?

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/oatcake

    Yes, Yes it is...

    Scottish oatcakes are flat biscuits primarily made from oats, salt and water, and sometimes dripping or lard; Welsh oatcakes are more like savoury pancakes, while Yorkshire oatcakes have a bubbly appearance and are cooked only on one side. When oatcakes are sliced into quarters, each piece is known as a farl.

  7. Jester's make a good quick meat pie, But a handmade fresh out of the oven chunky steak n gravy pepper pie.

    Nom Nom Nom

    mmmmmmmmmmm imaginary biscuit pie to stay with the post title.

  8. Yes, Crash after mission summary is what I have been experiencing too,

    Reload the game and do the mission again, last time i tested it the game didnt crash after my men died, the only difference that I can think of that time was I didnt have a vehicle with me, only dropship and men.

    All the other times I had a Gun/Missile vehicle with me before all my men died.

    Dont know if that has anything to do with it or not.

  9. If we're all just going to expand the range of discussion to include other pastries, I'd like to add that I just positively adore Lemon Squares.

    What about pancakes?:rolleyes:

  10. First bug report from me.

    Only started playing recently, but in 2 of the 6 games I have played I have had the game window close/crash and return to the desura screen after being on a ground combat mission and have all soldiers MDK'd by alien troops.

    I dont get an error pop up or anything like that so I dont know if anyone else has experienced that.

    I am playing it on an older machine, so im not sure if it's just me.
