ICBM Escalation Tutorial Question

Post by ChesterNimitz »

I purchased ICBM Escalation and the new DLC a couple of months ago but have not even finished the tutorials yet.

Here's why:

The tutorial tells you to do something, such as build a space relay station and a space center.

Check, no problem. Done!

Then it tells you to place both on the map.

Check, no problem. Done!

Then I find myself staring at the monitor wondering how to get the tutorial to advance to the next section. The tutorial doesn't do it, and there is no button for me to click to advance to the next part.

I end up clicking everything on the screen but nothing advances the tutorial to the next section. I then ask myself if this means I have come to the end of it. If I have, it was a very short one.

I usually end up just exiting the game.

How do I get tutorials to go through all the way to the end?

The problem persists. The tutorials are so vague that one gets stuck in them and can't progress through to the end. The only option then is to hit ESC.

I have limited time for games, so when an evening is open, I have a choice between playing one of the 50+ games I can play or constantly finding myself having to restart ICBM Escalation tutorials in an attempt to move past the sticking point.

To get that this is a problem, just go to any search engine or AI search tool and type in:

ICBM Escalation: Tutorials do not show how to advance through them.

You will then find numerous lists of ways you can try to unstick the tutorial. I haven't found any yet that work.

Let me give you an example. In the Naval tutorial you're told that Russian subs are in the area and that you must find them. Sounds good until you realize that it doesn't specify which group should do this. The carrier group or the two DD group? Even worse, there is no hint as to where to search.

Honestly, if I could get a refund at this point, I would.

How about fixing this problem?
