X-Tactics ("Cross-Tactics") is a GPS-based episodic RPG with new chapters each week, that takes place in a world, similar to our own, but one where top-secret government agencies and secret societies, maintain the peace and world order by manipulating the truth, news and history.

The last 3 days or so during matches with Adam and Alice alone i've been getting disconnected and the game shuts down on me.
Anyone else having this issue? Tried reinstalling and it continues to happen.
Not sure if this is even going to be viewed but i have to ask and hope ... One of the daily missions is giving me a headache trying how to figure out how to beat it. The business one where you have to complete it "away from your base".
I've tried actually leaving my house, tried going to another HQ, tried the mission list where you are supposed to obviously in another country ...
If anyone manages to see this and knows the answer please reply. Been having issues with this one and the damaging mobs with push, throw, rush, etc. Thank you in advance.
i wonder if there are other active agency other than mine currently. my reddit account is new but my xtactics account is actually quite old. all of other agencies in my friendlist have shut down. please add me: 1768237
edit: im aware of the existance of agency id 1000231 & 1266639, but i think im too underleveled to them
Anyone can tell the missions with itens rewards like grenades, badges etc... i found the "Jackalope Eggs" (summon creature item) and "Golden Eggs" in "Easter Hunt" Event on "Smuggler Shut Down" mission.
Havent been able to login to play the game for the April fools event for a week. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game is there and issue with the game or Google play please help
My ID is 1768044
Anybody have the issue where the special mission to unlock an agent's 3rd skill is not appearing? I have unlocked all the 3rd skills for all the agents except Haruka, Sophia, and Jeanne. These three agents are all above level 20 with Jeanne being level 30 but the special missions still do not appear.
My Agent Id: 1618693
I think this game is really good! And props to devs for maintaining events. I feel like this game could get really big with just a few tweaks. Maybe attack animations or a easier to use inventory system.
Anyways, see yah out there!
I just started playing the game and i found it very cool (more from the way the combat is handled then by the gps stuff). Is there anyone still playing so i can add? (my code is 1561924)
Or is there any game similar to this?
Kind of just stumbled across X-Tactics and really like it. Just wondering because the news doesn't really have dates attached to the updates and the most recent event is still Easter, is this game dead? I'd really like to at least play the other holiday events and get thier content, even if no new content is coming.
This subreddit seems pretty dead too, but I figured I'd ask.
Miklos has a third skill? cause him on level 25 and his special mission dont appear. Someone learn his 3º skill?
The only thing I found is that Kuku's Hug Bear has been changed, but it's no big deal, still easy to chain.
Anything else?
He is no good for attack, defense, range, heal, speed, trick (close range hold is not useful)...
He's a medic and I expect some good healing ability, but he doesn't have any.
His X-Skill is the only thing that could be useful, but not much.
What is the point of making and getting this guy?
Time consuming, but easy to fight.
Event Mission: Guardian of Paris - French Intuition
Cost: 5000
Experience: 52 Waves for 18,000+, or as much as you want to continue and no game crash
In this mission, there are two waves of 3 Dire Bat. Then you're suppose to run to the X Mark to finish. But if you don't and stick around instead, you are gonna to have 3 Zombie per wave.
Simple Zombie, not Zombie II or III, with 2~3 turns per wave and the default character - Jeanne's Alter Mode - has a healing X-Ability, easy enough, right?
I have fought until 52 waves and gained 18000+ Exp in this single but long battle, lasting about an hour and half.
I don't know if it is gonna be unlimited or 99 waves or whatsoever, but X-Tactics crashed once when I was on 30+ wave. Rerun the game to find out that the progress is NOT saved and I have to start over.
PS. Edited for formatting, hopefully it will be easier to read.
With the exception of one bug fix, nothing has changed in this game since late January. Is the game officially dead? It sucks cause this is probably the best free mobile game I've ever played.
Since the official social media accounts of X-Tactics had been quite inactive in the past weeks with no new info on anything (and they haven't reply me back on the Facebook Messenger), I thought that I'll post several questions in this post:
edit: fixed the layout.
I'm trying to do missions but it takes a while and after the battle I might get 75% of the bar
Not sure why the sticky is locked but my code is 1022446
I written this over at orignally but I thought it might be good to post it here too: https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidGaming/comments/61g973/first_impression_of_xtactics/

So I seen the game in the playstore a few times. Didn't really catch my attention with it's the icon picture and the name (x-tactic? What does that even mean?). Even the alien looked fairly generic so I passed over it many times. Today I was bored and decided to look more on it. So after looking through their company page:
http://www.gamkin.com/corporate/ It's made by ex Square-Enix, Capcom and SEGA employees. Ok I guess that's good.
I installed the game and pretty much at the start you get a Men in Black vibe. After the 2nd battle I knew the devs definitely got that inspiration from there. Not really a fan of modern style settings but I guess I'll get over it. The game is set on an angled view on a grid. When you attack you have to connect 4 different types of icons together. At first it seems simple, you can connect them anyway you please, move your finger anywhere on the screen and no time limit. Soon the game shows you you can do special moves if you connect lightning bolt, shield then heart together for example. If you connect based on the category of the icons you get a boost in that category so guess you can choose how you want to attack.
I was like ok, easy enough then on the second battle they toss in a defense saw from the enemy. Basically if you get hit by it while you're chaining, the chaining stop. I was pretty surprise that they added depth to the fight. Then they add a timer in the normal battles so I was fairly impressed (guess I'm easily impressed) by that since I was just idling my finger until the enemy's defense saw moved away.
When the enemy attacks, I had to time my defense. Kind of like those golf games where you have to hit the button with in the red part of the bar to hit the golf ball well. The closer you're to the shield the less damage you take. If you land exactly on the shield, you get a counter attack.
Surprisingly after playing 4 missions, I didn't see any stamina system which is a HUGE plus for me. No gacha system? I could buy the characters directly. No ads. So I guess their only monetization is selling boosters and selling units. Feels like a PC F2P mmorpg game which is great in my book.
I did notice the game does use GPS but it did asked before it is used and it only seem to use it to mark your HQ on the map. I can do missions around my "turf." Looks like I don't need to be physically there but I haven't played long enough to understand the benefit of it.
TL;DR: My impression of playing the game for about an hr is very good. No in your face gacha system, ads and stamina system. An actual??!!! full feature gameplay. I'm looking very forward to playing more of the game and hopefully doesn't disappoint.
Hi, new player here. Really enjoying the game so far, but my knowledge is limited. What are some good team compositions/synergies? It seems that certain character skill bonuses would work better with other particular characters - what are your thoughts on this?
I'm looking to potentially pick up a couple of premium agents. Who would be the best first picks, in your opinion, to make a team with secret (free) agents?
Hello everyone,
First of, apologies for not keeping you guys up to speed on what's been going on with X-Tactics. A lot of things has been happening internally, but due to recent changes we haven't been able to keep up with the social media part.
First of, this is officially the last month that I (Defur) will be working with X-Tactics. However, the development will still continue as regular. Since I have been the main English speaking member of the team, there might be a bit less written updates from the social media accounts for the English speaking community.
Secondly, we know that there is a lot of things that the players want and also what we want to implement into the game. Most recently we have been working on the balance of the game, but we have also prepared some content for future updates so we can release them in quicker succession.
Among the coming updates is the third arc for Miklos, his special mission and of course his third skill. We can't announce what the skill is yet, but it involves bats.
We're also working on expanding some of the other characters arcs as well and adding new enemies.
We have begun work on several new characters for the game as well. We've tried to hold the same approach to new characters as the team working on Overwatch, basically, the character is ready when it's ready. So sometimes we will have a character that is sort of ready, but then we might notice a flaw in the character and remake their skills or polish their story. One of these new agents is coming in the next update. We have two other characters that are very far along as well, but not entirely finished.
We have also worked on fixing some long awaited bugs along with some features that hopefully will make the experience of the game more fun.
Finally, as I (Defur) will personally be dedicating my time to new projects, I might not be able to give all the first hand updates to you guys. So if anyone wants to become an admin, please shoot me a message and I'll respond as soon as possible.
Hi, It looks like the app is free on Android and $4 on ios. Are there any differences?
Hey everyone!
We are just wondering a bit about what our players think about the X12 Agents in terms of character and mechanics! Is there anyone you like or dislike? Do you have a favourite? As we are working on new content and agents for the game, we're also working the balance of X-Tactics so we would appreciate any feedback that you guys might have!
※ Defur from the X-Tactics Team ※
It was great to see the latest version update. The new GPS missions (at least there are a lot of new ones appearing for me) have been a lot of fun and I was finally able to recruit Alice to my roster, and the XC gift allowed me to pick up another premium agent as well.
The only issue that still seems to exist for me is the attendance bonus. Mine continues to be stuck on Day 2.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to Defur and the rest of the team for their hard work. Hopefully the game continues to grow.

Latest patch notes. My level 26 Nikita can't kill enemies anymore and ac/dc is now dealing 15 damage instead of 30-70. Don't bother using Nikita anymore unless it's for her x-skill or to cheese her synergy gain with Gala Nikita
I want to unlock Astrid's alter mode from the new years event. In what mission do I get it? The newest missions are "Virtual Fireworks" and "The Freak Show" both of them have an entry fee so I am hesitant about doing them.
