Just been playing and its awesome!! Man, this game rawks!
In 2.1 I can not rename my soldiers at all so my point thereupon seems moot.
Going into "v" camera mode is crazy kewl - but i want
more. I want to move my little soldiers from that mode and not with the box - ie If I press 'w' the man runs forward and TU's go down. Spot an alien, get x-hair over him and press mouse 1 - accuracy worked out by game engine, maybe with mouse look like a real FPS
This is mostly wishful thinking on my part, so please ignore.
I'll try to get a screen shot of the lab when I have some spare time (Easter weekend and all maybe only next week)
Agreed on the account name we are, inquisiteur2 (he he your 2 is for the same reason?) and thx for the welcome. Code away please, this is fantabulous!
Some thoughts on 2.1
[if I am doing this in the wrong forum please point me to the right one thx]
1. Ability to rename troopers is gone! Oh noes! But the “dropship†changed to a better name.
Firebird for teh win!
2. The new
fire mode is great! I still think that that, along with
reaction fire should be set at the base on the soldier screen as well.
3. In the buy/sell menu the arrows should be able to run up or down automatically, single clicking only gets tedious.
4. Is it possible that when a soldier gets hit or is firing reactively, to actually jump to his / her specs? It would give a feeling of being more part of the action.
5. I was able to hire new workers / scientists
before the new living space that was needed was built.
6. When a mission starts the wording is a bit strange. The "what to do?" part should be ignored and it should just say "Arrived at destination." or something like that with a "proceed with mission" and "cancel mission" options?
These are not criticisms - you guys are doing a WONDERFUL job and I am loving every second of it
Thx for that
