Sunblinder Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere already. Firstly - wonderful to be playing Xenonauts after XCOM:EU -- I had my first two UFOs at the same time, and seven within a few days. Actually feels like there's an alien invasion. I haven't played the Alpha for some time so not sure if this is new, but my first crash had a single survivor then the next 3 or 4 had none (so I moved everyone around on the first turn then the mission ended), then again I had a crash with just a single survivor. I'm playing on normal mode but even so this seems a bit too easy. Have I just been really lucky or do other people see this too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I don't think I've had quite as many, but it's possibly that you are over damaging the UFO in the air combat. Blowing the cr@p out of it could well increase the chances of fewer survivors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 There has been discussion on this before. The offical answer to zero aliens is it shouldn't happen, so my advice would be to re-post it as a bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 It's a known problem. Some people like it some don't. The consensus is that it shouldn't be allowed to happen, but if it's allowed to stay in the mission should just end as soon as the Xenonauts land and see there are no survivors (to save the player time.)

Sunblinder Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 OK - thanks for the feedback. I'll try to be a bit less rough on them next time. :-) Though the game might need to suggest that to new players to the genre (and, obviously, certain old hands like me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
