[V19 Experimental Build 3 available!]

Hmm...

Hey hardcores give me some feedback on this idea.

A possible solution to the immortal plane problem...

Essentially its a 72 hour penalty for loosing a plane vs a $$$ penalty right?

What if we adjusted the penalty slightly? Imagine this if you would...

Players are now given the ability to request $$$/Planes from the Funding Nations.

The requests take X hours/days to process and will be based on how well the Funding Nation receiving the request like you.

Denied requests will result in a small reduction in points with the Funding Nation as they loose faith in your ability as a Commander.

Granted requests will result in a greater reduction of points with the Funding Nation.

The player must now balance the time it takes to process, along with the number of requests they send, as well as who they send them to...

This would result in requests successful or not costing you time and money as well as an increased risk of loosing a Funding Nation...

It spreads the money part out over time more, (You loose monthly funding) and you may loose more money overall, but at least it might keep you in the fight.

+1 from me for this idea!

Don't kill the immersion with immortal jets please. Theres got to be another way!

[Sorry but for my money this game is too hard]

You know even though I agreed that certain things are a bit too hard right now, I want to chime in one more time.

I think it's important for the aliens to have an advantage around mid game. They are an advanced people after all! I like the idea of needing to be very careful about picking your battles until you can gain some of their tech. It only seems right.

However, the way things are now it feels like they become too hard too fast and then you can never recover (at least I can't)... We need a better way to hang in there while perhaps still taking their savage blows.

If the next update is a long while away I might check out your mod there Sathra. I agree that it's very tough right now! I understand it's still being balanced though, so it's all good.

[A question I have for a long time]

I found one last night and they slaughtered my guys... It was insane in there!

[A comprehensive guide for newcomers?]

Thanks Hadrian, that makes sense. See, I wasn't even sure if having more than one radar station did anything.

[v 18 STABLE 30/5/2013 - Neverending Hidden Movement]

Happened to me last on on my first terror mission. I had almost cleared the map without any casualties and I had the (I think last) alien so screwed in a building that he spent eternity taking his turn trying to figure out what to do.

The game never actually stopped responding, I could alt tab just fine, it simply never left the hidden movement screen.

For me, there were no sounds looping.

[A comprehensive guide for newcomers?]

I'd be interested in more of a broad strategic guide as opposed to a mechanics guide.

I understand the basics, but what I don't understand is when to build a second base, what to build first, whether or not to build a second radar station, etc.

[Removing women soldiers]

After reading this, I sent mine to 15% and I added more female names. I hated seeing so many Janes and Barbaras!

[[18.51 Geoscape] Game Freezes after some time]

I'm surprised more people aren't having this problem. I obviously can't even play the game with it this way.

I've been fooling around to try to find out what's causing it, but I've had no luck so far.

[[18.51 Geoscape] Game Freezes after some time]

I am having this problem too. I have the Steam Version and after about 15 days the game freezes and I can't click on anything. I am forced to exit via control alt delete.

That said, I was able to get it past the 15th day as long as some kind of action occurred, but then it just froze on the 22nd day or so. It just keeps doing it over and over again.

Not sure if it matters but I'm playing on normal difficulty on iron man mode.
