Don't worry it can get better. It's not like Mari will be sniped from far distances or be assassinated by an invisible alien or be destroyed by incredible Psionic powers... Heh heh heh... 


The Chosen are going to screw us over.

Ha, yup!  Fixed by upgrading my graphics card, but it was still a situation of... "Really?  I have to pay $100 MORE to play this game?"  Needed to do it eventually, I guess.

This seems to be how it all ends for me. Keep ending the same mission over, and over again with different moves made and everything, and the game just crashes. Really getting annoying. And I'm just about done with the campaign too literally just put the final mission on hold for a bit (or final 2 how ever it works I haven't finished yet in case you can't tell.)

I keep getting fucking code 41 with this game on my steam and it making me want to strangle someone who bright idea was it to make this thing PC and mac only knowing these kind of problems can happen from files not fully being downloaded, to some kind of problem with someone not having an updated version of window or mac.

I actually got it to work at crawling speed with minimum details. Only to find out later that the Cryssalids this time can not only burrow, then can apparently burrow all the way into my harddisk and corrupt my saves.

Very funny take on the issue, though!

Whaaaaaaaaaaa?!  That's awful!  I had about 20 separate saves for a single game on EU/EW, good to know I need to continue this....

NeroonCousland In reply to genetheawkward [2016-02-12 17:07:34 +0000 UTC]

I've now made it past that. For your information when you get to it: When you come across burrowed Cryssalids any saves you make will be corrupted and not work. You can however save at the beginning of whatever mission you encounter them as they don't seem to start out burrowed. Then you basically have to Ironman the mission and not save again until you are back at the Avenger.

It wasn't related to burrowed Chryssalids. It was their cocoons. But eh, they just patched it so...

I hope it works for you know!
Me I didn't notice anything running better and had to find out you still loose protect transmitter missions, if a fire starts next to it after several turns of it not even taking burning damage.

I've been coughing along at 14 FPS at minimum graphics, so I guess I can't complain, but geez, it was a let down at first.  XCOM runs perfectly fine, too.  No idea what changed.

genetheawkward In reply to MatthewVett [2016-02-10 22:22:50 +0000 UTC]

I'm guessing the graphics have been supercharged.  XCOM was pretty baseline in terms of graphics for its day, but XCOM2 added a lot more physics and environmental work.  Gonna upgrade my card and see if it helps.

Oh how i can relate to this! I'm reinstalling the game as a second bug to this occurred and if that happens then contact 2k support. While the game looks good installing it is becoming a bit of a nightmare.

This reminds me, I actually made Mari in my XCOM 2 game, she's my main psi op at this point

FANTASTIC.  I want pictures!!  She'll be a psi op in my game too once it's running.

I've heard that it's great, but buggy as hell. Which is really disappointing, considering now, long we've all been waiting.

My buddies (who CAN run it) haven't run into any significant bugs, but I think I will need to upgrade my hardware and the steam download didn't go smoothly.  Here's hoping.

FeCyrineu In reply to Ultrabountyhunter [2016-02-10 19:25:31 +0000 UTC]

But the bugs are only visual bugs, with no effect on gameplay, and also, seing a sniper use their sniper rifle like it was a pistol is soo funny!

Ultrabountyhunter In reply to FeCyrineu [2016-02-10 20:17:18 +0000 UTC]

Not what I heard. From what it sounds like, there's a shitload of bugs that mess with saves or make it very difficult to even start it. I checked out the forums and the majority of the threads since release have been complaints about all the errors. It's not very reassuring, which is a problem, because I really, really want to play this game.

I'm playing and I'm not having these bugs you talked about, pnly the visual bugs. Lucky me, I guess.
