My classic difficulty game had been going well. As soon as the first terror mission showed up, the overall difficulty spiked, but against all odds, my ground tactics were able to win out. After several successful missions, I managed to get my country ratings nice and low.
But suddenly my game is fucked. First I had to let a large UFO escape since 2 of my interceptors couldn't even scratch it. Terror levels went up. Then less than 24 hours later a very large UFO showed up and all I could do was throw up my hands and let it destroy my satellite. Suddenly, with only 1 day of game time, my situation room is all orange and red.
I'm not even that far into the game. What on earth could I have done to prevent this? Of all the research I've done, none of it yielded much benefit to my interceptors (just targeting). Is there a research path I should have taken? It just feels so out of my control.
