orko3001 Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Has anyone seen this before? I haven't seen a thread about it on this forum. I found it by accident the other day... http://www.ufo-aftermath.com/pages/headquarters.html UFO: AFTERMATHTHE OUTLINE OF THE GAME1 SUMMARYIn UFO: Aftermath, a new strategy game from ALTAR interactive, you assume the role of the Earth's last hope, the commander of the last, scattered humans left on the planet.

Cpl. Facehugger Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Yup. I have Ufo Aftermath. I like it, its fun. Too bad it isn't really like Xcom in feel though. Kudos for putting this post in the right place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orko3001 Posted December 22, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 I used to think that about Apoc - and I must admit that I did lmao when I saw the giant mutant prawn in TFTD As for my reply being in the right place that's by acciden I think - I am still getting used to this forum.

Puasonen Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 Yes we know about it but most of don't care because it's too far from x-com. Could be a good game though if wouldn't try to see it as an x-com sequal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 Exactly! I recognize that it isn't an Xcom sequel, I just treat it like any of the other turn based games I have acquired over the years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PawelMaji Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 I just bought it and tried the tutorial.I haven't beaten it (the tutorial) yet. The controls are very unintuitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted December 29, 2003 Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 Did you get the patch? You really need the patch to enjoy the game. Once you get used to the controls, it should be easy to purge aliens. Watch out for aliens with microslug accelerators (that have a 20/sec ROF and 600 damage per hit.) Those hurt bad.

orko3001 Posted December 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2003 I just got the game a couple of days ago - it took a bit to work on my machine but I am enjoying it. It's like a cross between XCOM Apoc and Syndicate :happybanana: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PawelMaji Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Got the patches, and I've started to get the hang of controls.It's been blast, so far. Except the part that seem to be missing, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Part that seems to be missing? You mean base management? Yup. You probably havn't even faced the tough aliens yet, the ones that wield one hit kill weapons against which you have no defense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowHawk00 Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 I have the game and the patches and it still crashes random. I did not have this the first months so it must be when u are far in the game.I dont like the game anymore it crashes and it gets boring after a while. Strategy is not that good and there is no management so not an x-com game not even by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 No, it is not an xcom game. Just accept it. You must not have reached the plateau- where the aliens become practically unbeatable unless you start using advanced tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
