A Guest's Remarks

[Alienated]

How can someone aim at something that he does not see? That's not a bug for you?

That's already been discussed.

 

There should be probably written: "Will never trigger reaction shoots: Looking in another direction". That's all. (Are you a hair-splitter?)

I didn't split that. I said that statement is correct.

 

How can you call other people names when they did something so interesting as X-COM? The game has been enjoyable up until today, for 17 years. Nobody else have make a solid sequel, although many tried, with similar conditions as Gollop brothers. Is it "decent" only?

You should read that again whom I called decent and whom I called virtuous.

 

And by the way, what did you achieve professionally? By your standards, is it decent or very fine? I'd like to know, really.

For example I tend to find shameful bugs comitted by professional programmers.

Now I post alien sub data for the PlayStation version of Terror from the Deep. I guess alien subs behave the same way in the other versions, and I know the UFOs in Enemy Unknown behave the similar way, I also have data for Enemy Unknown but not the full yet.

 

S = Survey Ship (very small)

E = Escort (small)

C = Cruiser (small)

H = Heavy Cruiser (medium)

R = Hunter (medium)

B = Battleship (large)

F = Fleet Supply Cruiser (large)

D = Dreadnought (very large)

 

The number after the capital letter in the missions table indicates the type of behaviour; the table of these types lists the speed and depth between waypoints.

 

v = very deep

d = deep

n = normal

s = shallow

t = touched down

 

T = Surface Attacks ("terror")

P = Probe Missions ("research")

R = Resource Raid ("abduction")

D = Interdiction ("harvest")

E = Colony Expansion ("base")

I = Infiltration

B = Floating Base Attack ("retaliation")

S = Colony Supply Missions ("base supply")
