[V5.6.1 - General] No Battleships even after reaching phase 5, 400+ days in


Recommended Posts

Keep getting regular missions like terror, abductions and other UFOs like Cruisers and Harvesters but no Battleships. 

 

I've never actually gotten this far so I have no idea the timeline of when Battleships arrive but I'm guessing they're meant to arrive after the orbital assault? I really hope I'm just impatient/extremely unlucky on spawn rates, really wanted to do a big post game write up and finishing a game I've been excited for since it went on kickstarter is fun.

Is this a campaign started in 5.5 or a fresh campaign for 5.6.0 / 5.6.1?

This bug should be fixed but I'm not sure if the fix affected existing campaigns.

Here's a fixed save game for you where they should be activated.

Chris,

I have this same issue.  I did not complete the Bridge assault until I had 5.6.1 installed already.  Here is a copy of my save file (last turn of bridge assault).  Any advice?  I'd love a battleship to shoot down so I can capture the eternal! Also if it helps, my endgame progress remains stuck on 25% immediately after researching the eternal corpse

Been a long game but I think it's most likely 5.5 since the last two hotfixes have only been less than a week, fixed file works great, instant battleship, thank you.

Here you go, just fast forward a few days and a battleship should spawn.

same bug i hope will be fix with the 5.8 :)

 

The bug has already been fixed, but it won't fix campaigns started on an earlier version. If you can hand me over a Geoscape save, I can manually trigger the battleship to spawn so you can continue playing your campaign :)

Le bug a déjà été corrigé, mais il ne corrigera pas les campagnes démarrées sur une version antérieure. Si vous pouvez me donner une sauvegarde de Geoscape, je peux déclencher manuellement l'apparition du cuirassé afin que vous puissiez continuer à jouer votre campagne:)

parfait , j attendss que ça sorte pour refaire un run :)

Hello team,
I am also already above day 400 but cannot see battleships or start the end game.. can you fix this save game?

Hey martin, it looks like it's the uoo sabotage bug that's causing you to be unable to progress in the game. I've made a save that should allow you to keep playing. If you go to the research screen, you should see the uoo bridge research, which should allow the campaign to progress normally.

Btw I'd like to ask, when did you start this campaign? We made a fix on 5.17 that should've addressed this bug, but if you started the playthrough on a later version of the game, then that might mean that the bug is still present in the game. Thanks

Thanks Kouki for quickly fixing the issue, I can continue now.
I think I started before 5.17 with this campaign.. I do have a saved game from 5.17 and I think I started prior to this version with this campaign.

Saw the topic you've posted regarding no battleships, we'll look into it and see what's going on.

Thanks .. I finally completed the end game after almost 30 hours total play time ;-)  also the bug that I saw a crash when selling old MARS tanks is now resolved in 5.24 !!!
