Alien base

(1/3) > >>

Strzelec:
Hi everyone,

I have attacked the alien base for the first time and it turned out that alien's turn lasted about 4-5 minutes. Considering the size of the map I'm worried that I won't be able to endure playing 1-2 minutes and then waiting 5. Could you please advise me what can I do in order to reduce the time needed to wait?

pete conway:
I find in situations like this... making a cup of tea, putting the linen in the washer and doing other shortspan household chores is recommended, that way you can have your cake and eat it... if you make cake between turns as well that is!

Strzelec:
Thanks, but this is definitely not an option for me, because actually I like the concept of alien bases so much that I want to PLAY IT and not do other things and checking the game from time to time.

anonymissimus:
So AI turns are so slow not only for me.
Well, a base attack is the most time consuming type of mission. Plan for 3 hours at the very least.
Only good thing is that the AI turn time will become significantly shorter over time (with each alien you kill).
In 2.6, it is possible to win the mission by holding the PSI device room or the power core (the one with the light green illuminated tanks) for a number of turns. This tends to save 2 hours or so (but I still need 3 or 4).

Strzelec:
Thanks, but I was thinking rather about some settings changes which can increase the speed of the game.
