cody522 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 In every game so far, the aliens focus the majority of their attack on Australia and it really kills my funding. Has anyone else noticed they're taking out the most dangerous continent in the world first? That leads to another question, what happens if funding reaches 0 for a country? Do they opt out?

Josip Broz Tito Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I've had the opposite experience: they leave Australia alone until mid-game and attack south america : ) And yes, you can lose funding blocks. I've heard scuttlebutt of a mission to regain a block after it's lost. Maybe in a future build : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Does it depend on where your bases are? I start in Europe and then the US, so the aliens know they have an easy time of it in Australia. I assumed that was why the increase in activity there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol' Stinky Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I reckon it's random, and we're seeing patterns amongst the chaos. This current playthrough, the aliens seem to have it in for South Africa, South America and the Middle East. In my 19.6 playthrough, they really wanted the USSR and USA.

Aaron Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Terror missiosn tend to hammer Australia because they pick a nearby target to where they spawned to attack - and Australia is a near a big empty expanse of ocean so it "hoovers up" UFOs spawning there. We plan to change how UFOs pick targets to fix this kind of behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
