So i have been testing this a few times but i believe suppression in my game on the aliens behalf is not working. I first noticed it in November, this is where the game really starts ramping up so i thought at first i was just making some rookie mistakes having my people too close together, so i started to spread them out at least 7 tiles apart or more sometimes, but the aliens would fire one shot with a rifle and then not only is everyone within that radius suppressed but so is my sniper over 12 tiles away not even in sight of the alien and the rear guard of another team even further away! So i decided to check out if my people were not brave enough but all my guys have really high bravery like 65+ so i doubt its that (i believe bravery helps with suppression anyway).
So i cant figure out for the life of me how half my team gets suppressed, i mean when i used to play around this month it was not this bad, and i watched a few lets plays to make sure it was just me but the suppression affect seems normal in their games. I mean literally were not talking about getting shot at a bunch with bursts im getting shot at maybe one or two times and half my team is basically useless every turn.
Note: Also this is not a bug but I've noticed that lately it seems all the aliens on the map have just been mobbing at once to the drop-zones which have been making missions just slaughterfests especially in terror missions. Is this supposed to be normal now?
