shagpuss Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I have seen someone mention Base Micromanagement somewhere on this site, I for one would enjoy this, what level of base management are they hoping to achieve? Some of my early posts on the old ALTAR board mentioned (I believe along with Ufoman) expanding the base number of mission types. Do they have any plans yo implement this?

BlackAlmaz Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 all iwant is for the r&d to be able to do 2 or more things at a time....we make cyborg cynatsts that with more implants canm produce more faster,..... base control sweet....but i think we will have a base in space and than go back down to regain control of the planet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasuloman Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 I don't know how much this is an issue with others, but here it is. Does ALTAR plan to improve the randomness factor in UFO:AS? What I didn't like in UFO:AM is that if you saved the game at the right time (just before interception, just before delegated mission) you could almost always win after an adequate number of reloads, no matter the strength of opposition. It would be much better if this random number determining outcome wouldn't change just because you reloaded. Maybe on easy setting randomness would work as before (like an in-game cheat), but be fixed on harder settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Yes, the randomness factor...Like when your unaugmented interceptors downed a battleship with no losses and your fully decked out ones don't even scratch the battleship's biopaint. Could you ask if that odd randomness has been fixed (somewhat?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aralez Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 At the "other" UFOAM forum some guy asked about another important thing: Buildings ! Will we finally be able to enter them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 I believe that my current questions are along the same lines as what ZuckerDoc, Thorondor, and Slaughter were trying to hint at on the old Altar Board. Does Altar now have enough money from UFO:AM so that they now have the financial and programming resources necessary to give us what we want in Aftershock? The sister thread where I enumerated my questions in more detail:https://forum.ufo-aftermath.com/index.php?showtopic=58# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
