So bloody frustrating...

I really dont like that, i cant even manually save every once in a while to not waste so much time on lost progress.

I dont even want to go back to it now :(

Can we PLEASE get mini map pings on areas you have explored that an item is left in or a unopened chest so that we don't need to comb the map for hours only to never find the last stupid minuscule bottle or book or whatever that you missed 8000 times or heck just put big red exclamation marks over chests or items in places you have explored. It's not like these levels are particularly hard why make us waste time searching for research or empire points.

tl;dr You should consider swapping to something with more state in the crypto stream. The current save format uses the decades-old PKzip crypto, which is vulnerable to KP attacks and also limits the *effective* password length to 13 or so characters regardless of how long the password is. This is because since there's only 13 bytes in the state, many different passwords (aka shorter than the ones you've picked) will also map to the same internal state, similar to how X mod Y will have many different X that map t...

Then I do it again (same map) on very hard. Will I get the difference in the points between the two?

Or is every map a 1 shot deal, and if you beat it on easy, you'll forever be stuck with few points and then get screwed later on?

I'm wondering if I need to start every map on 800% in order to get the points..

Thanks!

Hello

Replay mode is only for fun, you should starts again a new campaign for try the same mission in other hardest mode difficult

Hello,

You have to install SlimDX to make the game runs.
Usually the instalation file is in this path C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\They Are Billions
Use this executable file ---> https://imgur.com/eKDnnOP

Just want something off my chest. I myself among many others were dissapointed in the campaign (and I will post my own review soon, along with suggestions on a per mission base to improve). I guess we all expected a good decent variety of missions and not always the same generic ones. It could have been objectively better.

There might be a huge amount of dissapointment running with the developers due the criticism they had to face the last few weeks. Usually that ends up with atleast questioning if they should put effort in any further development for sequels or dlc.

I think I speak for any critical mind out there, but do please work on a follow up, because basically you have developed all the tools necessary! You have a big range of decor pieces, you have a good sound map editor that will allow much more complex and engaging campaign missions, you got the exp...

Originally posted by Tynendir: Introduction

Many people were disappointed when the campaign was released. I heard a lot of comments such as the fact that the swarm and hero missions weren’t interesting or too hard. I also heard a lot of “git gud” comment but that’s another subject. Many people and well-known streamers complained about the difficulty (or the lack thereof) of some of the missions (notably the build for X days missions without being attacked). I also was disappointed for the reasons pointed above but mostly because of the fact that the campaign could have been much more and would have allowed for the game to reach its full potential. I am well aware that a game never lives up to the hype surrounding it and that technical limitations exist but, in this post, I will try to explain why the campaign felt underwhelming for a lot of players and how it could have been improved. It is my hope that the developer...

Originally posted by Masonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn: Just saying, everyone is wrong and terrible at the game.

The game is too easy, and too hard.

It is fun, and also very unfun.

Campaign sucks, and I haven't even played it.

Survival is the only game worth playing, because ♥♥♥♥ I love to hate myself.

Challenge of the week needs a difficulty disclaimer, otherwise I'll just keep playing on max survival instead of bothering with any game that isn't a 12 hour slow walk to forcible ♥♥♥♥.

Thank you developers for Caustic Lands, as I've seen it as better punishment than repeatedly slamming my genitals in a heavy metal drawer.

One day I will win at max everything. Or I will die.

Sincerely,

400 hours of my life so far.

1) The option to multiply the number of zombies in timed spawns (in addition to the outright difficulty levels easy->apocalypse). Just an extra option to further ramp up the difficulty for your game wherever you sit on the overall difficulty ladder.
- lets say you're playing on easy but can't win a challenge map (but still would like a 1.5 kind of escalation in challenge - the 14/28/etc day timed spawns can be made 2x or 3x harder
- or at the other end, you're in apocalypse and want even MORE .. so you still have the same amount of time to prepare and the same level of ambient zombie population .. but you can sleep in peace knowing the timed zombie waves will be even more mind boggling with 2 or 3 times the population

2) Option to continue campaign maps
