View Full Version : Free Worm Choice option bug

We played a few local MP rounds with the Free Worm Choice option ON (not sure what the original english name for this is; it allows you to select any of the worms on every turn).
The first problem we encountered (though not a bug):
With the triangle button we can cycle through our worms. When we found the worm we want to use, we press the square button to bring up the weapon panel. Once we select a weapon though, the first worm is activated and not the one we picked and there is no way to select an other worm after this. I get that it works as the Worm Switcher item and we have to approve the selection using X, but I think opening the weapon panel should do the same in this case.
One of the bugs we had a few time:
The triangle button would not cycle through all of the worms (only 2 out of 4 in one case) and in an other case it didn't allow to select anything at all. We're sure the other worms were still alive, because we checked.
An other time, after selecting one of the worms, the turn was finished instantly, as if a Worm Switcher item was used.
On a side note, shouldn't the time go down while selecting a worm? Currently you can take as long as you want to select a worm, move the camera around and even have a look at your weapons.
I'm not sure if this is related to the Free Worm Choice option, but sometimes (3 times so far) the weapon interface wouldn't show up. I was able to select a weapon, but there was no arrow (air strike) or target cross (bazooka). Additionally the shoot button didn't do anything, so it was basically a turn lost.
