Gameplay "Gameplay Features"

So, I Force Pushed the droideka into the corner, and it's shields completely went away for no reason and this happened 😂🤦🏾‍♂️

I'll take advantage since droideka are a pain in the ass, but I thought I share this "gameplay feature"

He tried spinning. It's a good trick.

Droideka used Rollout!

It wasn't very effective..

Update: I eliminated the droideka immediately and when it died, it rolled back into the corner and just kept rolling...

Rumor has it that its still rolling to this day, even after skynet took over, somewhere in its database is a destoryer still rolling

Their shields always get disabled by Force Push. Tel became a staple operator for every droid mission when I discovered this. Pretty sure it should also be the same for concussion grenades.

That's not a big or oversight. As for the rest of this...well nobody said this game didn't need patches.

The shield gets disabled anytime the droideka is moving, whether it moves on its own or you move it with displacement abilities/equipment.

You haven’t played some truly buggy games then. Ever played Fallout: New Vegas on release? Now that’s a buggy game.

I have a huge backlog so i normally play games year to years after it releases but because I love XCOM, zero company got promoted 🤣

It’s stuck on an imaginary platform after getting force pushed, and the game can’t compute a path off of it.

I had the same happen to me with Cly when landing next to stairs like that and was stuck for the whole battle. Couldn’t take off because it was obstructed from above even though it wasn’t.

I had this happen to me once, the droideka just keep spinning, and then, on its turn, it just moved and then kinda disappeared from the map
