Veteran XV
The Single Player game, while not perfect (I managed to "break the story" several times, lol, but that's doable in all games), is a lot of fun and very intriguing...until one mission that I have tried about 10 times now, either failing or dying every time. 3/4 of the times I'm losing are due to glitches, which I will list:
(Note: These may be known, I'm just a little ticked so I didn't bother to check if they were listed yet
)
Mission: Victoria: The Past (where you have to defend a Blood Eagle base u just took while Daniel does some other crap on his own) All goes fine until the gunship segment, where I started running into a LOT of glitches.
Glitches:
1) If you do not jump into the pilot seat of the gunship, you break the game, and it won't let u go destroy the generators even if u switch to pilot from a gunner seat. Resulted in me losing because Iwent too far from our captured base, even tho I knew I was supposed to blow up the generators out there.
2) After destroying the 3 generators and returning to the base to face the onslought, I thought to stay in the gunship and fend em off a bit. The tank made quick work of me, but (this occured 3 times so far) as soon as the gunship exploded, I was hurtled at blinding speed clean out of the map. Well actually, the entire screen went black and I read my HUD map and saw distance to objective: 10000 and rapidly climbing. I was still alive too.
3) Inexplainable destruction of the generator I'm trying to defend. Best I can figure, that dumb tank is shooting in through the door and (for all I can tell) destroying it in one shot, because there are NO enemies around (I just fended them off from the inside of the complex) and the Repairer is right behind the gen repairing it. After the gen is "destroyed" it shows a short clip ranting on my ineptness with disks being shot at the generator, when there was CLEARLY nobody around to shoot them right before it was destroyed. (happened twice)
All in all, quite frustrated that this one mission is eluding me because of 3/4 glitches and 1/4 difficulty.
I can't imagine glitches like that are ONLY experienced by me and I also can't imagine that my copy of Tribes is the ONLY corrupted one
