narcoticsound Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I'm not able to crash fighters UFO. Always I destroy it. I have used also only machineguns, but the crash site never appear. Think this trouble is not reported yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorlom Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 What type of alien craft are you engageing? fighters are considered escorts and don't leave crashsites of their own I think. in my experience only Scouts and Corvettes does so far. If you are attacking scouts how many planes are you using? more then 1? You say you are only useing machineguns. are you toggeling off the autofire on the missiles or are you just not bringing the MiGs to the engagement?

So it's not a bug I thought all UFOs give a crashsite and instead I was wrong. So these types of UFOs will not be necessary to recover alien technology useful for the production of better aircraft. Sounds strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amiga4ever Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Its mean theres nothing to recover. Ufo is destroyed in pieces like very small ufo in first Xcom The only issue is with information. Every time is "UFO destroyed" and sometimes should be "UFO crashed". Information about ufo destroyed should be only when there is no crash site. I hope it will be fixed in next release Edited January 30, 2012 by Amiga4ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poulwrist Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 It's funny how at some point in my last game, I started getting mostly fighters flying around solo. I intercept them all , cause I figure that intercepting UFOs over airspace should increase my ranking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Amiga: You can see this on the air combat screen: if the ufo icon still present and a small text pops up next to it: Destroyed, then the UFO crash landed, if it blows up (Red explosion circle appears) the UFO is destroyed. Fighters cannot crashland by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
