twice and by the second burst kill 3 or 4 bots.

Discover a surprising bug in Fallout Tactics where burst weapon crossfire always hits! Learn how to exploit or avoid this game imbalance to survive.

Hey there! So, you're playing through the Super Mutant levels and you might have noticed something a little... weird. It seems like if you've got a group of enemies, and your guys are firing burst weapons, the crossfire from those shots *always* hits someone in your squad, even if the mutant you're actually shooting at misses you. It's a pretty strange game imbalance, right? You'd think there'd be a random chance for stray bullets, but nope, it's like they've got perfect aim on anyone *not* being shot at.

This means if you've got two or more of your squad members bunched up, they're pretty much guaranteed to get shredded by this crossfire, while the guy they're actually aiming at somehow dodges every bullet. It's a bit laughable when you see it!

How to get around it: The best way to deal with this is to make sure you're only posting single squad members when you're attacking enemies who use burst weapons. Keep them well spaced out, and you'll avoid that guaranteed crossfire hitting your whole team. This tip is especially useful if you're playing with version 1.27 of the game.
