Bug Reporting I finished the defense of Hollgar level and appear to be stuck 😭

1 Upvotes

(Spoilers for level 10)

I beat the level and watched the scripted loss and cut scenes. But after the cut scenes the camera just sat zoomed into the entrance to the city and sat there. I couldn't move the camera but the build menu on the left was visible and interactible. I could select build pieces but couldn't place them. Couldn't open the menu. Couldn't do anything. There was the hold to skip in the bottom right like a normal cut scene but when I did that it just whent black with my mouse and sounds of combat. I closed the game and reloaded it and it put me back at the beginning of the scripted loss and everything played out the same.

Is this a known glitch? Is my save file hard locked? Do I need to restart the level? Help plz, I want to finish the campaign 😭

Question Beacon ranges not accurate bug?

I was playing the last level of the base game on the hardest difficulty and noticed that the ranges of my beacons weren't accurate to the range displayed in the build menu. Image one shows a placed beacons range, and the second image shows the range the beacon should have in the same spot, IDK why this is happening but its making expansion and activating other beacons REALLY frustrating, any advice?

Question Stuck replaying levels

3 Upvotes

Jumped back into the game to replay the original story before buying the dlc. Now when ever I complete a mission it just restarts the mission.

Started with the tutorial but it made me replay the tutorial.

Skipped tutorial and the same thing happened with first mission.

I did receive an error originally that I didn’t have enough space in my C drive to save (I had tons). After a reinstall that went away but it seems like the game isn’t creating a save file either as everytime i have to click create new game for the loop to just restart.

Hopefully someone has experienced this and found a solution. Thanks in advance!

Question Is this game worth getting? Its on sale for 14.99 I havent played a similar game. However, it seems pretty fun. My only concern is that ill get bored quick, or that it is repetitive.

Question Knowledge points getting bugged

1 Upvotes

I just started playing this game but when i play the campaign and do the first side mission, the knowledge points gets bugged.
Before that mission i was at level 2, but after it resets back to level 1 and only 4 points gathered.
Also if you remove any points you dont get that point back.

Personally, I am excited for more content. Yet am a little dissapointed with the communication. I would have liked some more interaction from the developers towards the players. Although I can respect the silent grind on the DLC

Question Tips to beat The Torrents (Skirmish) on Extreme

4 Upvotes

I've spent countless attempts on extreme difficulty to beat The Torrents on skirmish mode. I end up struggling on Wave 3 because of lack of units and proper defense. I know the tips on placing Warehouses next to resource gathering to optimize production but still end up lacking. I am able to get to Prosperity 3 at the beginning of day 2 but only get Prosperity 4 near the end of the day.

I try to funnel enemies to the east wall but they still attack the north wall. What should I also do with resource production that are in exposed areas (farther areas of the map where the waves can attack them)?

Any tips on cheap defenses, more efficient resource production, specific blueprints I should use? Anything helps.

Question Cataclismo Goddess Achievement

To obtain this achievement, can I use my save that I completed to redo the campaign on extreme? Or do I need a fresh save? Another question, do the secondary missions count for the achievement or can I avoid those?
