XCOM EW: Effect of Ignoring UFO Crashes?

XCOM EW: Effect of Ignoring UFO Crashes? - Picturesque view of white foamy waves splattering near ocean shore with rough surface under cloudy sky in daylight in stormy weather

I know that ignoring UFOs will result in a higher panic rate.

But what if I shoot down a UFO and ignore it? Will it also result in a higher panic rate?

Note: NOT using Long War, a.k.a., "EW Vanilla".



Best Answer

I have just tested this.

Shot a UFO down over the USA and then did not send a Skyranger to the downed ship.

  1. There was no effect on the USA's panic level.
  2. It did not negatively impact my end of month Council Report.
