Enjoying the game so I'm glad I bought it.

The menu and interface is pretty horrific though. It's sad because the core game is pretty awesome.

 

[Toma]

So everyone immigrating over to this thread now!

Lets just start a list with people who are interested in a second Gaf tournament:

The tournament itself will start after the current Summer Steam sale.

Add yourself to the list if you want to participate!

Since we have many new players, match mode will be Dark Extermination again, other tournament details will follow later.

 

[ShaneB]

Well, posted it in the Steam sale thread but here we are: They throw you in the deep end in the first mission by having moving enemies. Kinda sucks to think you take them out in the pre-end turn playback and they suddenly move, pop around the corner and take you out. Guess I have to be slightly more careful.

This is what took me a bit to grasp. I was planning my moves, under the assumptions that the enemies wouldn't move. So when I hit prime, and the shit hit the fan, I was like... ooooohhhhh... lol

Exactly lol

I am having trouble beating the first mission.

 

[Toma]

I am having trouble beating the first mission.

Almost everyone has. Dont feel bad about it. If you beat the first mission you are almost set up to go multiplayer.

 

[CzarTim]

From the multiplayer videos I've seen, rockets seem to break multiplayer (makes games too short, makes them a bit more random) I hope there are modes without them...

Not all matches have them. It's random. They's also very vulnerable.

 

[Toma]

Not all matches have them. It's random. They's also very vulnerable.

Yeah, the 4 base units are very balanced. You need to be more careful but its opening up a completely new layer of tactics if you are able to make new ways.

 

[TheSeks]

This is what took me a bit to grasp. I was planning my moves, under the assumptions that the enemies wouldn't move. So when I hit prime, and the shit hit the fan, I was like... ooooohhhhh... lol

Yeah, there's no letting you have a heads up on them moving. You prime thinking you'll take them out unaware, but nope. :/

Also multiplayer takes too goddamn long given how many people aren't taking turns when they come up. Or I'm running into bugs where the turns are taken but won't load. :|

Also my first loss didn't pop the first multiplayer loss achievement, why? Because it's the third game I started?

Well, you are basically supposed to play this game turn based as play by mail. If you want a game NOW until the end, its probably best to ask a Gaffer.

And achievements might be a bit buggy. I still dont have the achievement you get when you get hit by a rocket launcher.

 

[Volodja]

After the first 2 losses I managed to have 2 wins and now I just had my first draw.
2 Machine Guns, 1 Granade Launcher and 1 Shotgun for each side. I took out the enemy GL and SG but while trying to take out the two MGs that holed themselves in the corner where they spawned, I got my SG and one of my MGs killed.
I should have hidden my units but I don't know why I decided to rush.
Oh, well, live and learn.

You know you have two weeks to take your turn when it comes up... you're supposed to play one turn, then maybe come back later in the day or a few days later to check if the other guy took his turn.

Yes, but there is no "play by mail" option. Unless the twitter/Facebook integration is supposed to be used to let us know when we're supposed to make a turn?

Also got the lose a multiplayer match achievement. So I think I'm going back to getting my ass kicked in the singleplayer now. Stupid sniper showed up in the third set of the first mission and screwed me over.

Uh, it sends you an e-mail when it's your turn by default. You can turn it off in the options.

Yeah, I am thinking of a small twist, but Dark Extermination will be the base match type.

 

[Deraldin]

Guys you still have at least one week to practise! Haha, no need to get wet feet. You'll be doing fine.

I just have the worst luck when it comes to dark matches. I've mostly stuck to the campaign and whenever the lights go out I'm pretty much guaranteed to finish the mission with only one guy left alive.

Only one way to get better though!

Can someone help me.I am up to the second mission, but I am not sure what I am supposed to do.Do you have to kill no more than 5 technicians? Every time I kill them it says at the end of the mission something like " they were unarmed, you murderer".

Weird, it let me move on after I shot all the technicians and told me "it was necessary".

 

[abunai]

Weird, it let me move on after I shot all the technicians and told me "it was necessary".

Yeah, I killed 5 technicians in one turn and I thought that was the end but the mission only ended after killing all of them.

I completed it.It was my fault lol. I thought the game ended when it says " they were unarmed..etc" so I restarted the mission.I didn't realize I could continue to the next part.

Is that the one where you have to assassinate the guy? I basically got lucky because my allied rockets blew a huge gap in the wall and let me gun him down with some riflemen. I honestly hate facing snipers more.

Can an early defeat still be disappointing if it's totally expected?
