Massive is not an expression here. Just imagine: you get 20 points for taking down a Basilisk on Insane. You get 0 points for accomplishing any of your goals. You get at most 500 points for destroying a Lilith. All these points are valid on [glow=red]INSANE[/glow] . Do you think that is possible without cheating or playing 'promotion campaign's?

What about all those things where you and your wingman just anahilate dozens of enemies that come in, what was it called? if someone stuck those as a campaign with points it might work.


Anyway, this after finshing my FS2 medal collection for the 5th time

I still want to see the admiral debriefing

Let's guess you take down 24(two dozens) of fighters in a mission like this, while playing on insane. Let's guess you get 15 points for each kills. You have to reach 1 million points to get the Admiral status. So:
15x24 = 360 score per mission
1,000,000/360 = 2777.7 It means you will have to play that mission at least 2778 times, if you keep killing 24 fighters per flight.

Let's guess you get 750 score for completing the 'kill everything that appears as a red dot on your radar' mission goal.
It means you get 750 + 360 = 1110 points per mission. To reach 1 million score, you have to...
(1,000,000 / 1110 = 900.9) ... fly the mission at least 901 times.

Why only 24? or is the Gauntlet (ah remember the name) numbers for FS1?

[TopAce]

Why only 24? Open FRED, place a fighter and see how many score you get for killing it. (SHIFT-S) window. You will notice that you get fewer than 24 points for each fighters.

Sex?

I do not know what you mean by that. Who did you direct that post towards?

[InfernoGod]

Lol, to quote Lieutenant Loukakis:
Welcome to Vega ensign.
Now I can say 'oh no he didn't!' lol
And i didn't cheat. A big factor that helped was one of the campaigns i created. Primary objectives are worth 100,000, secondary objectives are 10,000 (as much as a Sathanas) and bonus objectives are for one million points! lol I never noticed how much a Sathanas was worth until i had completed the campaign.

[TopAce]

Which campaign is that?
That's cheating in a point of view, you know?

[Taristin]

Ahh, so you did cheat.

I made a campaign once, where I was in an osiris, and had to bomb a typhon that was at 5% health, worth 1000000 points. I did so, and became Admiral.

And yes. That is cheating.

[TopAce]

I can hardly believe this. Raa agreed with me!
Let's celebrate!

[Taristin]

Do we really disagree all that often? Or is it merely we do not understand what eachother mean all the time?

[TopAce]

I am certain we do understand each other. We are both intelligent men, we are simply on different wavelength all the time.

well, as long as you stay close enough to the Tiamat the Aquitaine's beam cannons should take it out.

I only put up Admiral Wolfe's voices, since Shima sounds like a pimp (like when she says 'inter-system subspace drives'...) ...

It IS possible to get an admiral for FS1, and FS2 obviusly, but it takes YEARS...
