Alien "fighter" craft keeps coming over and over again!


Recommended Posts

I looked for this problem reported already, and did not find it.

So, I keep getting an alien fighter craft on my radar. I keep intercepting it. Sometimes, it's visible. Sometime's, it's not. I keep shooting it down and then flying back to base. Each time, it's, apparently, a "new" ufo cuz it says UFO-12, then UFO-13, then UFO-14, etc, but they keep appearing, about 4 or 5 in a row so far. What is going on? Is this a bug, or is this normal? It's definitely weird. No other UFOs are appearing anymore. It's just "Fighter-1 appears. I shoot it down and then return to base. Then, Fighter-2 appears. I shoot it down and return to base." Over and over. Thanks in advance for help! ;)

Yea i think that is normal for now, its just a stage in the game that needs to be ballanced out a bit.

just keep going and the corvett will start showing up again but with 2 fighter escorts.

just takes a while to work thru the introduction of the fighters.

also you better start thinking about sending your dropship out with its own escorts when you start getting ground battles again, the fighters will do anything they can to shoot it down.

as far as the invisible fighters go, its a known bug. just gotta put up with it until sunday afternoon UK time. :D

Ok. Cool. Thx, NoI. You're right. After about EIGHT fighters in a row, I finally got a corvette. I like the idea of the fighters and the UFOs in general attacking Xeno craft. That was one of the things missing from Xcom.

Every time you encounter an UFO it will display it's type on the notification window, and yes if you play for a while you will encounter many fighters and even bigger ships. The difficulty and the balance will be done later :).

Thanks for the report.
