SavageAsHeLL Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Same here. Downloading now =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GizmoGomez Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 The ultimate "Arg!" moment, the basic preorder has the 17.9 available, but the premium has 17.6. Not that I'm demanding better treatment or anything, but you'd think that the premium would get it first (even if it's only by an hour or so). Ah well, se la vie.

Myth Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Just downloaded it from Desura. It doesn't work. It asks me which version I want to play. I chose "Play". I see the Process in the task manager. After a few seconds it goes away. No error is displayed. End of story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a333 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Nice job Chris, thanks. Say, did you put the units\alien\sebillian\elite\weapon.AlienHeavyPlasmaRifle\crouchidle_S.png there on purprose to scare the bones out of those who likes to watch through the new assets?

Myth Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I tried again. The Desura client marked Xenonauts as "not ready" and installed something. This time after choosing "Play" there was an error message. Pretty nondescript. The next try showed the above mentioned behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Godzilla? Yeah. Myth, I'm downloading the version on Desura and will give it a try. Have you tried restarting your PC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myth Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Havn't. Reboot as rarely as possible. I did exit and restart the Desura client, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yevgeniy Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Thank you very much for a pre-beta release! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGyverDTH Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) I played a few minutes this release (i did not played much before, i am waiting for beta) and there is a thing i am really missing for tactical ground combat: Why can i not throw a grenade where i want ? I want to throw one into a bush / shrubbery to destroy it and move through it (so i have not to move all the way around). But i just can throw it where someone is standing. Or i want to throw a grenade on a place nearby a alien (when i can not see the alien, but suppose one). But this seems also not to be possible. Will this feature be added in the final mission ? It would be really annoying if not (for me...) Or is there a chance to throw it where i want and i just did something wrong ?

thothkins Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Not played this one, but the grenades I threw last build (admittedly not a huge 'nade user) all seemed pretty accuracte. I'll have a nose at the current build later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 You should be able to freely aim grenades wherever you want the same way you can with normal guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggoth Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Loving the update. Not sure if these are bugs: -but in the farm tileset, I still sometimes get civilian shadows moving around with no sprite. -I also have gotten the hidden movement lockup (but no crash, I have to force quit) a few times in the arctic and farm tileset. -1280x1024 resolution still has overlapping text on the clipboard in main menu, and in the personnel screen. Other than that. Starting to get really polished, and I tremble at future A.I. updates...because the aliens are really hard already--due to a tendency to play defensively and shoot pretty straight now.

MacGyverDTH Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 You should be able to freely aim grenades wherever you want the same way you can with normal guns. I started a new game and now it was working. But it was not possible to destroy the bushes with a grenade, i had to wald around them. I think it should be possible to destroy bushes with grenades.

radiorob Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Chris, what have you done to us! Game is now unplayable. Now cash from ground battle ( not all battles, but about 50%). How can I advance in game and check all of its features without cash!!! The old-new standard armor in 17.9 must be build (cost: 50000$ for each). Alliens are deadly accurate, they running and shooting (shoot in motion) and hiting my soldiers. My, in static position are not so accurate! And saves in ground battle (very funny "feature").... see the bug forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
