garyg Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Was never able to have any troops survive so I thought I'd try to eliminate the reapers. I had a lot of ammo and grenades so I thought it would be fun to kill them all. Answer: no way. I think reapers are infinite. I tried twice and wonder about the 'mission successful screen. The first time my kills were 261/386 and the second was 230/337. I assume that was kills/total aliens. Then why did the total change? I did not replay the whole game just the end game so I should think the total aliens would be the same. Am I wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solver Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Once you go past a couple dozen Reapers, it's hard to predict exactly how many will spawn, so you can have numbers differ like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thixotrop Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 (edited) The final mission has an inifinite number of reapers or not? I can't find it anymore, but someone in this forum (former version) did made tests of how long he can survive the flood of reapers. There were screenshots with hundreds of dead reaper coprses.

Solver Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Yes, they'll keep spawning for as long as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Some guy loaded everyone up with MAGSTORMs and killed over a thousand of them once; I must admit I was pretty impressed by that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I had so many reapers piled up that I think that they were blocking my LOS at times. When I was down to just grenades I was killing 3 or 4 with each grenade. I never made it to the throne room with any more than 6 troopers left and 2 or them wounded and by the time I got back to the intersection to attempt to leave, there were the reapers waiting. Anybody love a reaper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
