Title: Some questions
Post by: Clark on July 13, 2006, 03:54:46 pm

Hello! I'm new here even though I've lurked around a bit.

I just started playing the FSport, having played FS1 quite a bit when it came out. Great port!

A few questions:

Mission1 : In FS1 (and in the demo), the mission doesn't necessarily end when the primary objective is reached. You can linger and then a lot of new enemies arrive (Horus interceptors) and the mission gets quite hard. I can't seem to get this to happen in the port?

Mission 3 : Shouldn't the freighters shoot back? They do in FS1. And there are Horus fighters there as well, but not in the port. Actually so far in the campaign I haven't encountered anything else besides Anubis fighters.

Thanks for a great port BTW!

/C

This never happened in FS1 or the Port. The demo mission is longer simply because it happens to be only two missions long.

I don't recall the freighters returning fire in FS1. The turrets on the freighters are actually very deadly to an unshielded fighter, so this may be the reason why. As for the Horus fighters, I believe that they show up when either one of the freighters escape.

Welcome to the boards, BTW. If you enjoyed the Port, you'll love Silent Threat: Reborn. :)

Plasma rifles are located in the weapons locker, but only Admins,V, or a hyper-intelligent shade of blue have access to these areas. If you meet a Shivan in the ductwork it is most likely Carl, give him your lunch and back away slowly, odds are good you'll be fine.
