samsmithnz Posted October 11, 2003 Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 Yah the game arrived this morning! But I have a question. When intercepting a UFO, there is a little video to the side that shows the action, but its really hard to see. Is it supposed to be like this? Or am I having techincal problems...

ShadowBlade Posted October 11, 2003 Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 HA! Speedy Shadow! Ahem... Well, if you see the interception in a green, fuzzy tone it's OK, because it's the nightvision effect that occurs when the dogfight takes place at night. Enjoy this fine game!

samsmithnz Posted October 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 So does this happen with an interception during the day too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowBlade Posted October 11, 2003 Report Share Posted October 11, 2003 No, only when the dogfight takes place during the night (when the part of the globe where the interception starts is dark). They are supposed to be normal when they take place during daytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rezaf Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 In my game, I noticed something odd: whenever I decided to skip the movies, I won almost EVERY fight, while I lost most when I let the movies run. Odd.________rezaf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvatarBG Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 Before start fighting just hit "save" and watch movie Battle is absolutly random every time. If u lose, load and try again.U can win even fight with Battleship without loses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 Yup, there is a certain amount of randomness, though improved figther weapons, armour, speed and maneuverability help the dice roll more in your favour each time. It also depends sometimes on how big the enemy UFO is that picked a fight with I do agre though, after that it's still fairly random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
