Title: Some questions :)
Post by: tomvondeek on January 21, 2010, 01:53:50 pm
I am playing Version 2.2.1, and  I played with german language (i don't know if it makes a big difference *gg* should not), but here are my questions:

- after capturing alive aliens i could not research them. e.g. the blood spiders.

- storyline?! research? suddenly, someday in december, game endet. "thank you for playing ufo:ai"

WTF? Ufos i hadn't researched yet... is there still a lot of work in the storyline to do? shall i try version 2.3?

greets,

Tom

2.2.1 is nearly two years old, and a lot of progress has been made. So either try the 2.3 now or wait for the official release that should happen soon.

You should be able to do the alive alien research once you have captured one. There aren't any species specific living alien researches however, instead you need a certain number of aliens until the next one opens up.

The story ends suddenly in 2.2.1. In 2.3 there is supposed to be a real ending mission instead of just an end message.

If you working on Windows and want to try 2.3, download it here: http://ufoai.ninex.info/forum/index.php?topic=2830.390 (http://ufoai.ninex.info/forum/index.php?topic=2830.390)
Download "ufoai-2.3-dev-28207-Debug-pentium3-O1-sse-7z-small-win32.exe" and if you want to apply the newest bug-fixes, then also download "ufoai_28213.exe" and replace the files.

Happy playing :]
