l let them all attack the sentries alone, which kill a couple or so of them, then when the transport jumped in, I killed the rest of them before they had the chance to go hostile.

One of my gripes against that mission is that they take too long to realize that i've betrayed them. Usually when i play that mission i manage to kill a good  2 or 3 of them before they realize, "Oh Wait hes trying to kill us. We should be angry."

Yeah, you kinda gotta "play by the rules". I just wait till the guy says "time's up etc." before opening up on them.

Otherwise it's too easy to cheat.

I personnally attacked them a few seconds before they went hostile, because i though they would attack the transport themself.
I don't think this is cheating, is it ?

Killing your "Wingmen" without having them turn hostile before the transport ever arrives to get an advantage.

I screwed up in the previous mission and lost the Hamako in my first playthrough, my cover and that of Snipes was blown and I was sent on my way.  Wasn't until I played through a second time that I even found out that there was a third mission in that loop, and then I blew up the transport to keep my cover to see if there was a fourth... unfortunately not, and I only managed to escape with 9% hull integrity.

The first time I played it, I just waited until they turned hostile. I was half expecting something to happen.

Later on, I realized that you can just nail them all at the beginning of the mission. The mission has the "no traitor" flag set, so they don't notice anything. I tend to do that and only keep the guys who talk alive, as the dialogue gets messed up otherwise.

on my first go i blew up the transport

First time I played, I tried to jump out, and was told that I didn't have the codes for the drive.  Did nobody else do this?

I didn't even think twice about what to do.  I directed a mental "**** you!" in the direction of the NTF pilots and opened fire...and then started dodging for my life.

There was nothing on the directives list telling me to jump out, so I didn't.

To the first post:

I shot my wingman right away, and they never changed to hostile even after I blew up one of them. The escape pods survived and I was sitting there wondering why they didn't bother firing back (the NTF)

[MatthTheGeek]

Escape pods ? oO

[TopAce]

He probably means the transport.
