I hate biomass!

with the right tactic they are no problems! if you can shot from far away take a sniper rifle, they'r attack is so slow that you can run aside after 2-3 shots. it takes a little time but you won't get hurt. If you can't shot from far away take a rocket launcher best loaded with burning-ammo, they have no chance...

I only know, that 1 shot with different weapons gives you different amounts of xp. Further you get xp for critical hits on your soldier and for killing an alien, but the exact amount - ??? The xps of the weapons can you try out: make 1 shot on the ground and quit the mission, then relaod an take an other weopen... i wish much fun for anybody who tries out all weapons!

me too... as i said in my first threat, i allready tried this...

I've got the same problem and i postet it in my first post in this forum but nobody had any idea that resolved that problem... But i finished the game with v1.0 without bigger problems so it was ok...

Yes, please make it, but i can't send you the file, cause i'm at work and i have only internet here!

i dint't know where to post this question... so is there a mod where the xps are increased? if not - wouldn't that be a option for the rebalance mod? I'd love to see a change here. if not, any idea where i can change that myself? As i posted in an other threat - i finished the last misssion yesterday an i killed all aliens an none of my soldiers died or even had to go to the sickbay and what did i get? only 4600XP for the whole team! That's brings me nothing if one soldier needs more than 15000 to level up... Normally i would have ended the game with lvl 16-17 and thats not enough, cause i made almost every mission, i had all 60 bases and i killed almost every alien at a map...

Thats exactly what angers me most. Yesterday i finished the moon mission an killed all aliens an what did i get? only 4600 Xps for my whole team of 7 soldiers! That sucks. The only way to get more xp is to cheat an i hate that! :hmmm:

You have to produce it yourself and get it quite at the end of the game. Yesterday i completet the last mission myself the first time an with the warp demolition it was no problem on easy First i cleared the map with adv. plasmarifles then i set my soldiers in a row in front of the last room and gave everybody a warp demolition. I opened the room an one shot - one kill. and it doesn't only make this 7500 damage, in the report above i read numbers like 35000! damage - this seems to be related to the alien skill. so it was no problem to clean the room, i needed ca. 3 shots per soldier for all octopuses... Now i'll try the game on hard with the rebalance mod v3.3 Btw: first i wanted to throw granades in the room but somehow all my soldiers can only throw 4 -5 fields far in the last rrom an that makes much more damage to me then to the aliens... ???

1. which difficulty level do you play? 2. against rocketlaunchers in open fields? Sniperrifles, shot 1x an then run some meters and shot again. 3. in rooms: if you dont see the aliens throw some grenades in all directions from the start (they are limitless) if you see them, then run directly towards them, if you are too close they dont shot and you can kill them easyly. and if 1 hits - that won't kill your team...

Sorry but the resistance against exception is also 90% Warp with 25% is right but the other is paralyse with 25% So the only real effective weapon is like said above the warp demolition!

I also have one on level 25, if you reach this level he has all stats on heroic! But I only made it with a trick, cause if you play fair it's almost impossible... In that time you could conquer back the earth 3 times until your hero is lvl 25!

1. With the Xp: Thats good, but in the later game it won't bring you on, i get 2000-3000 XP for the group after a mission but if you notice that a soldiers needs 15000 to reach the next level you can imagine how long it takes to get 15000x7 xp for your squad so that everyone is one level higher... 2. It's a green/grey mass which covers a part of a continent. you can't miss it if it's there... but if there where no planter-ufos yet it could be, that there is none in the moment! It also took a while at me until the first planter made to start it, be happy cause it can get very annoying! 3. I've never seen such a "node" but as i observed a shot down planter ufo i had the possibility to research the biomass, so wait until such a ufo is shot down by your planes... 4. Normally its no problem, sometimes you can't do every mission because there are too much. There are some "main-missions" which never disappear on the map until you have done them. Then there are some missions which you should do at least once (like the planters) to be able to research sth new. they disappear after a time but after sometime a similar missions comes up which you can do then. Then there are the capturing and defending base missions. You should always do them cause they push your influence, your research an engeneering, but don't worry if you can't do one, then you have to wait an do it later... The rescue missions for example are not very important but you'll have to decide yourself what you think is important and what not... if your people have to be healed then do this an try it with a smaller squad or some new soldiers from the reserve... and if you have none then wait, it won't cause the game to be unfinishable. good luck!

hm, it's a little bit confusing with the xp's... ??? somehow i don't get enough allthough i make every mission myself an kill all aliens on a map. now i've reached the point where i can observe the spaceship after which i can build one myself an my soldiers don't have a chance... as soon as i start there are 5 or 6 aliens with rocketlaunchers around me, i've no chance to run away , at least 2 or 3 hit me and my team is almost dead... But my best soldier is only lvl 17 so i always wait for missions to level them up but that takes hours... i've allready had enough time to produce bioarmors for all squadmembers... btw: i often read here the spelling armour? isn't that the french word for love? but not the english for armor, or? so, now i've read that you get xp for critical hits - and if you look at the crytalines-trick - thats seems to be true!!! so thats quite unrelistic cause i always try to get my soldiers not hurt which means you have to play very tactically. so and therefore i get lesser xp than somebody whos squad gets almost killed everytime? That sounds for my like a bug but it explains why i get so less xp! an that angers me a lot! :hmmm: so i think i have to cheat to come along if the programmers are so unfair or stupid!!! That takes away a lot of the playfun...

ah, i see... thanks!
