![]() ![]() You then arm your hired troops (whom you can also individually name) with armour and weapons that you’ve taken the time to buy or produce and get them loaded up in the dropship before sending them to the location to take on the aliens. So let’s say you have a UFO that lands in United America. Of course without you around to oversee matters, this might not end with desirable results. So it's a good thing then that with some mission types you can opt to have the missions play out all by themselves. You have harvesters, scouts, and the fighter class UFOs, and this can determine which sort of scenario plays out, but inevitably it all ends up with you going into battle to kill aliens. There are different UFOs that perform different functions. ![]() The only way you can prevent a battle scenario from taking place at all is if you shoot down UFOs over water. But even if you do intercept it, you’ll have to get to the crash site to secure the area. ![]() It will more than likely be picked up on radar, and will probably land somewhere unless you are able to intercept it with aircraft or SAM sites. This will decrease response time when aliens attack.Īt some point, you are going to come across a UFO. Focus on one area first, and then gradually extend your presence over the face of the earth when you have the money to do it. Positioning is everything, so don’t waste credits building structures all over the place, overextending yourself. Outside of building bases, you can also construct smaller, but just as crucial buildings, like UFO yards, SAM sites, and radar towers. You can buy and sell equipment, start production on new technologies, and conduct research on alien technology. Then after you’ve got all the buildings you need, you can go about hiring employees like workers, scientists, pilots, and soldiers. Ranger and Wrack also wear this armour in Q3A. The game uses a modified id Tech 2 and Quake 2 engine, as well as the death animations from Quake III Arena, and the suit of armour used once you’ve researched alien body armour, nanocomposite armour, is based on that of the slipgate explorer armour from Quake. The game is not only inspired by "X-Com," but also the "Quake" series. You’ll also have access to laboratories, workshops, missile command centres, and alien containment buildings, and more. These include hangars, where you can house your aircraft which includes interceptors-craft that shoot down UFOs-and dropships, which will carry troops to the battlefield and back. You have different buildings in your base, which each allow you to perform different actions. Your first base comes with all the necessities pre-built, but subsequent bases will have to be built room by room, and this takes a while, plus you need a lot of credits in order to do it. Once that’s done, you can even name your base. After taking a look at your email where you would have received a few messages from your advisors, your first objective is to build a base, and you can select any point on the earth you want. You are the director of Phalanx, a top-secret organisation whose sole mission it is to defend earth from the aliens, whose sole mission seems to be “all humans must die”.
