Hmmmm, i dont totally agree on this one. You dont have a fixed amount of xp given in a mission that have to be diveded among your soldiers. Its not like you get lest say 2000 xp for a mission and that is 400xp per soldier if you brought 4 or 1000 xp per soldier if you brought 2. I experimented abit with this. Saving before launching the helicopter and doing the same mission multiple times, and bringing different amounts of soldiers. Not sure about the excast amount of xp I got but it was something like this 1 soldier : 400xp 3 soldiers : 1000xp 7 soldiers : 1800xp Make your own conlusion

Using the 1.2 patch. On some missions the tactical combat is really laggy. It feels like I am playing on an old Pentium 100 The game just lags like if the game fails to update proparly, however I am able to move my mouse perfectly. just experienced this on a downed ufo mission, it was just to laggy to play so I aborted it and took another mission. this one went smooth. This laggy gameplay sometimes happens. dunno why. Have a fast computer and I have checked bencshmarks and drivers and other games, all is good..... Anyone else experiencing this?

Just for note. There are two different speed stats on the caracter cheet. The normal one somewhere along with hitpoints and the other skills, and the one in the lower part of the cheet that tells you the actual speed depending on encumberance, how much you carry, capasity...

I never figured out to do this either. On all missions to capture a live alien I had to wound atleast one and kill the rest to finish the misison...

To get a sample of the biomass all you have to do is to do a mission on a place that is infected with the biomass. Its the same what kind of mission it is as long as it is on a area infected with the biomass. The easiest thing for me was actually to engange a ufo over infected land. If your planes got shot down it was just an easy pilot recovery mission. If you managed to down the ufo you ofc have to do a normal kill all grey inside the ufo mission. You dont hav eto pick anything up. As long as the mission is in a infected area and you complete it you will automaticly get the sample. You know you are in a infected area when your soldiers walk on a brown goofy stuff...

Ill try that systems. However, do you have any idea where I can find such a utility? It only looks like its the scroll speed thats extremly fast though. The walking speed of soldiers and aliens are normal...

Just found a windows version of ufo : enemy unknown that works on my wk2 computer All the memories It actually works ok, the only problem is that when I move the mouse to the end of the screen to scroll it scrolls from one side of the map to the other...its just to fast...difficult to find that guy of yours in the middle of the map ....

What Id really like to campare is how much xp you all get after a mission... If I play a mission with 4 soldiers I get about 700-1200 xp on average total, and when I play with 7 soldiers I get an xp of about 1000-1600 on average. How much does you usually get?

I remember I played one of the UFO games along time ago, think it must have been 7 or 8 years ago atleast, not sure though. It was the one where you had the flying suit, interceptors, avangers, blaster bombs etc.... What I hope is that someone can explain the different games to me. How many games has been releases, whats their names and does anyone know what platform they where meant for... Id really like to play some of the old games and hope that someone can help me

They are abit usefull. I never train a soldier though to become a sniper, but I rather let the soldier who has the best markmanship carry a sniper rifle in his back pack. The only time I use them are when fighting mutants that paralyze. There are a couple of monsters that can paralyze from a great distance. So i equip the sniper rifle to take them out from a safe distance....takes afew hit thoughs.....because as you said the dmg isnt that big.

The reason I said that I belive they get the same amount of xp regarless of who does the killing is because on one mission I had four soldiers with me. One of them just stood in a corner the entire time but still got enough xp to lvl up. i checked how much that idle soldier got and I think it was about 20% of the total xp if I remember correctly....

Does anyone know how hthe xp system work in UFO? So far I have figured out that after a mission, when the report says you have earned...lets say 1200 xp, then those 1200 xp are devided among your solders. I belive that each soldier gets about the same amount of xp regarless if they did all the killing or just stood idle. What I`d really like to know is.....I know that the xp you get after a mission is devided among your soldiers. But does the number of soldiers you bring on a mission affect the total amount of xp you get....? I have done some checking on a scouting mission. I saved before I tool of from the base. During the scouting I only ran around without killing any monsters. First time I did it with two soldiers and got about 400 cp total witch is about 200 each. I then did it with 6 soldiers and got about 800 xp. That is about 150 each. The monsters there where different though on the two tries. So know I wonder if the xp varied because I had more soldiers with me or becasue the monsters where different..... Any ideas?

Finished the game without ever beeing able to manufacture power cells. According to the list I didnt have alien power cells. But I know that I have gotten many of em after missions.....strange, anyone else have this problem?

I must actually admit I like the plasma weapons. Or one that is. The enhanced plasma rifle is pretty ok. Have a decent range and does 750 dmg I think. I had four guys using those weapons. And one shot from the group of four was enough to usually drop an alien. However, the reload time and the low lvl of charges was not so good. So the weapon is not good when fighting many enemies, but it worked great when running around inside bases, atleast for me...

I am pretty sure the game is event based. So you should do all the engeering and research before doing the area 51 mission and other event missions. You will know what kind of mission drive the plot line when you see them.
