michos Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Well guys I'm posting to this board for the first time even though I visit it quite often since I have started the game for some time now. I am a fan of Ufo since I have played all the previous ones. I have played and finished over 60 strategy games so I am well aware of tactics and micromanagement. The reason I'm posting a new topic about retribution mission is why I haven't took a satisfying tactic in hard difficulty without the patch. I have tried running away (heroic speeds, with bio armors) but bumping on aliens and then get owned, tried the psi projectors strategy but as soon as the greys appear three rockets are launched on the spot towards me and my guys eat soil (wearing enchanced heavy armors) and also they are two many. I try heavy weaponry but get owned after I kill three rects. My guys are lvl between 18-21, whilst the rects are lvl 25. I have tried evrything and I don't understand how on earth some guys pulled it of eventually. Plz help here. Should I unistall the darn thing, should I restart in normal?

BlackAlmaz Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 the pach helps with some problems....but i'm afraid not with those.....i think :hmmm: well i finished the game on hard in 5 days...and found only one mission hard...the russian...base...i just didnt expect it......i came there with the same arsenal i took to area 51....welli learned from that... i do find it hard with those rockets...but i like to give my man some speed....and stealth...it does work...when u start...make them all dck...and dont shoot....make the best guy with stealh walk!!! to scout and when u know where u need to shoot u can set out a plan....though a few acid nades....and shoot and run..... once the rockets ur out of the way...its all dwn hill from there...but this happens a few times so...each time u can try something new....and dont use enh Heavy Armur....its tooo slow....unless u use some big gun...i find the collspsoble launcher usful as it can launch a few rockets...and kill in an area...but the done side is u cant ceep it open but with those rockets....just run...cause they do run out of ammo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michos Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 Thanks mate I'll give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michos Posted November 26, 2003 Author Share Posted November 26, 2003 Well this doesn't seem to work. They are too many and I don't have enough space to run. If I move a little and avoid one or two rockets I get owned by their collapsible plasma guns. Any other ideas guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
