Title: JAD 3 - help required (Spoiler warning)
Post by: terran_emperor on August 31, 2008, 10:27:23 am
I'm stuck on what i presume to be the final mission of JAD3. Ive killed Terran Frakking Command, the Sponcer fleet, the GLD Morality, the GTVAngelion and the Knights of No.

I'm stuck once the FRED Knossos and and "Alpha One" jumps in. I try heading towards the knossos, and Sathanas Eleventeen jumps in about the same time a Supernova stars...then the Volition Brovos arrives.

About that time the supernova kills me.

What to i do to complete the mission?

Have you tried flying a little further into the Knossos, or even aiming at the centre of the ring?

Let me put it this way: If "FRED"/"Alpha One" yells "Noo!!1 Don't go there!", you should definitely go there.

Every time I go into the center of the knossos, nothing happens other than me crashing into the Volition Bravos.

You're supposed to fly into the decal of the subspace thing, but keep through and past it. It'll work, at least it does for me. Though I did need to try a few times.

Yeah i constantly flew through it and the title characters proceeded to NOT>contribute_to_health=Alpha_1
 
So in the end i opened the mission and changed some bits to make it a bit less . . Umm defined.

By the way, the anime themed mission is one of the funniest things ever. Oh God did I laugh at the mission debrief, too.

If by "decal of the subspace thing" you mean the subspace vortex, that's what I do. I fly into the vortex, crash into the Volition Bravos, then get Supernova'd.

Don't know what to tell you, it worked for me, but again, it took several tries. Try flying into it at different angles.

Are you using the invincibility cheat by the way?

Well, gonna hijack...
I can't freaking kill the GTVAngelion...or the Shivan Armored Demon thing... I've blown up every single piece off that goddamn "weak spot". I've even blown the whole thing to smithereens. Nothing ever happens... According to the mission file, I'm supposed to destroy a "core" subsystem on the comm node...except...THERE IS NO CORE SUBSYSTEM!

Am I doing something horribly wrong?...

Yes.

Spoiler:
Destroy the Support Ships in the GTVAngelion's abdomen and the Shivan Comm Nodes on the Shivan one.

Ok...I think the version I have is messed up or something...
Spoiler:
There ARE NO SUPPORT SHIPS, and only one Comm Node (well, there's two, but the Armored Pretty Thing is invulnerable)... I've opened in it FRED even... I still have no clue how it is even possible
