Sigh...I guess I'll start with the most obvious...
Did you just get out of the first grade or something?
Judging from your spelling, grammar, personal attacks, and futile attempts to get a point across, I think everyone is asking you that question.
Trying to copy me makes you look idiotic, try not to do it. Now onto the point, which is simple...Yes, you are right, it was the main aspect of the mission. What you forgot to add was that the mission was COMPLETELY SENSLESS (like 75% per cent of the single player missions in FS2 [tm]). It SUCKED and it was BORING, and all I wanted was to complete it just so I could finish the god damn game.
Copying you got my point across, that if you
choose to not care about the Galatea or the Psamtik, you won't. Just as you decided to not care about the Psamtik, I could decide to not care about the Galatea. It depends on your frame of mind, which unfortunately, is quite negative.
And
what was senseless about the missions? You say that over and over, how dumb and pointless the missions were. Yet you never give any
reasons as to
why the missions are senseless! That mission you were supposed to finally capture Bosch, certainly there's a good reason to be there. You find a new subspace portal and, realizing the importance of this new node, Command wants to take control of it. What is so senseless?
Are you REALLY that dumb? Don't you get stuff? Go read some stories for christ sake and stop wasting my time.
Was this personal attack brought on for a reason? What point of mine are you trying to refute? That good stories have plot twists and unpredictable events? I don't know what you define as good, but a story that I can predict from cover to cover is not good at all.
The Colossus was in one of the last missions, not only was that mission out of place, it was sensless. Kill the never-ending Mara's that jump in (oh yeah that's hard to do for me) and throw in some Rakshasa or a Cain while we're at it to keep the mind busy while something "important" goes on in the distance...at least in FS1 you tried to DO something about the fact that the Galatea was about to be lost. You got a sense of accomplishment later that you DID manage to save the pods and the crew. I couldn't care less if the thing exploded 9clicks from me, I DONT CARE, IT'S NOT MY RESPONCIBILITY.
Again with the senseless. I'll explain. If you attack the Gamma Draconis node (obviously an important place, the Shivans will fight to defend it) you take attention away from the Epsilon Pegasi node, buying time for the Bastion and lessening the attack on it. What would have happened if that Sathanas, or even the Ravana, attacked the Bastion instead of the Colossus? Game over, man...game over.
And since you're so good at FS2, you should have cleared out the Shivans before the Sathanas arrives, letting you watch the destruction of your most powerful warship. I see your point though, if it isn't your charge, you don't care. Very admirable.
I'm getting repetetive, but again, I didn't give a damn(tm). The guy on the Messana was TOTALLY annoying with his voice like he was talking out of his ass. Furthermore you take the beating of the HQ as the main loss of the game? Where the hell were you from the start, the GTVA has been nothing but losing all along with some small senses of victory. But I guess the GTC Eriksson was too small of a loss for you, you needed an Arcadia to explode so it would feel big. And if you really were fooled by the fact when Khafre said "...with this we have nothing more to fear", then again, you should go read and try connect stuff.
A guy has an annoying voice...okay, we'll let him and his crew die, no big deal.
BTW, the GTSC Erikson was a science vessel that visited the Gamma Draconis system 15 years before FS2. And even if it was a real cruiser, HQ is slightly more important than a single cruiser, so yeah, I count that as a much larger defeat, the ultimate defeat, just as I would consider losing my main base in a strategy game the ultimate defeat.
"go read and try connect stuff"
I don't need to hack anything funny boy, I'm the best pilot this game has ever seen.
Sorry, are these posts bruising your ego? Finding yourself a little out of your element? Seems like it, since to make up for your verbal inadequacy you pompously proclaim how awesome you are at the game.
"knew something about stuff." Thanks for being crystal clear about that is supposed to mean.
I did everything I could do to get everyone out safe. Supernova was out of my jurstiction, but the bombers and the Cains were dealt with so that they didn't cause ANY damage ANYWHERE!
I'm sure you did everything you could, and if you managed to prevent all that damage, more power to you. All I am saying is that when the supernova comes, the trailing parts of the convoy get vaporized, and I asked if you felt any loss for those civilians.
Don't tell me what I am, I devoted more time to FS1 and FS2 then you could possibly imagine, and I was doing it most likely when you were still sucking on your mother's breast, now go watch your cartoons dear boy, unless they are already finished so you need to take a nap.
Love the personal attacks...shame they don't help you win this argument.
God damn you for forcing me into this position, all this is about to turn into is name calling since you had to think you know something.
Check your post again, looks like the name calling starts with you, BD.
At least quantum attacked my actual arguments for the most part instead of resorting to a screen full of insults and personal attacks.
