On one hand, the secret to JAD is cheating. Not www.freespace2.com cheats, but out thinking FRED when he tries to construct his "foolproof" plans.

Anyway is the Ares thing a problem with the MediaVP model? JAD doesn't require the MediaVPs, try it out without them and see if the Ares is still impossible to kill. If it is... then he gets CHANGED.

I've also taken note of some other things you guys are reporting for any updates I do to the campaigns.

From what I recall reading from other people, everything in that particular mission was lacking collision detection. I, personally, had no problems, though(and was using the 3.6.10 MVPs).

I did also recently note that there are subtle hints on the F4 Objectives screen. "Brackets", "Makes the galaxy go round", etc; so, if anyone's stuck, that might be worth checking.

On JAD3 I got stuck on that mission where the neo vasudan front ships turn into the wierd transformers thing. Any thoughts?

Frak, sorry. I said a thing but then deleted the post because it was dumb. I believe that's what nuke there is referring to.

I'm talking about the one where after they transform into that thing they make some comment about the power cord, so everything is turned off. After that happened it gives you a believe in yourself speech and I had no clue what to do.......

Also, IIRC, the AA beams on the ships are active, so you might want to bring along some Maxims or Trebs to snipe with.

Yes, absolutely everything in that mission lacks collision detection for me. I can fly inside the Colossus, the Lucifer, and the Hecate. Shots pass right through me, and everything else.

It just so happens the Ares is the only thing you really need to kill.

Oh screw you! There's a statue of limitations on this ****! AERIS DIES! NICOLE KIDMAN IS A GHOST! IT WAS HIS SLED! DARTH VADER IS LUKE'S DAD. :P

Besides, simply saying "it's an Evangelion Homage/it's an Angel" does not prepare you in any way for what that mission actually does.

I doubt your first and last "spoilers" are really spoilers, considering they are so old and well-known.
17:37:02   Quanto: I want to have sexual intercourse with every space elf in existence
17:37:11   SpardaSon21: even the males?
17:37:22   Quanto: its not gay if its an elf

[21:51] <@Droid803> I now realize
[21:51] <@Droid803> this will be SLIIIIIGHTLY awkward
[21:51] <@Droid803> as this rich psychic girl will now be tsundere for a loli.
[21:51] <@Droid803> OH WELLL.

See what you're missing in #WoD and #Fsquest?

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

That would be the point.

And actually the oldest one on the list is IT WAS HIS SLED.

My first and only guess was "The Giver" but that's a long shot since I don't think that's technically a spoiler.

Citizen Kane. The whole scene is actually a plothole, though, since nobody was around to hear his final words. Point that out to a film professor sometime if you want them to go hysterical.

The other one would be from the Patrick Swazye vehicle Ghost. I think. Early 90's movies sort of blend together in my head.
