Gameover with only one member of the UN in bad shape?
« on: January 09, 2010, 02:46:17 pm »
Just how low on the rating scale do UN nations need to go before it's a game over?

I've just about every other UN nation happy with my performance except oceania.
Is the game SUPPOSED to gameover with just one UN member nation "giving up" ?

How far are you in the game?

You can lose because there is too much infection on Earth.
You could have more debts than you are allowed.

...And which version of the game are you playing?

The 2.3 development builds are very different from the 2.2.1 release (which is over a year old now), and even different still is 2.2.0 which some people play then come to this forum because they downloaded the game from a third-party site with an older version.

The different versions have somewhat different win/lose conditions.

Edit:  The game also tracks how many civilians get killed, and that can also trigger a lost game, even if nations don't get that upset.

I'm not dealing with any Infection, I haven't seen any Biolandmass, if such exists.

I'm playing with the 2.2.1 stable build, should I be playing with a different build?

Because as it stands, having only one nation peeved kill my game is utterly retarded.

It would be alot easier if the reasons for a gameover besides you losing all your bases were more obvious :/

Play 2.3. ;)

2.2.1 is very old. There are tons of interesting features + new weapons + more story in 2.3

Is a downloadable installer available? Or will I have to do a bit of tinkering with code programs to compile alot of stuff?

There is a thread with lots of exes. Problem is that the last complete installer (that you might want to get) was a bit buggy with problems that were quiet unnerving. The bugfix (the last exe) is not a complete installation.

I'm not a real expert, but I would wait for the next full exe, which shouldn't be long.

But perhaps more experiences users can help you better than I can. :)
