Re: Dude, I must really suck.
Um, why would the Vasudan ace be using Avengers at that stage of the game?


Secret Vasudan prototype?

Maybe, but if McCarthy was still planning to sell the blueprints, maybe not.

Re: Dude, I must really suck.
at the end of WWII during the Korean conflict Russian Mig's fought against U.S. F86 sabres and U.S. pilots were initially shocked at the likeness of the Russian aircraft.

both Russia and the U.S. were working from German designs...... that said the Russians still wanted the blueprints for the F-86 to check for any improvments or weakness.

Vasudans initially stole or developed the Avenger, terrans initially stole or developed the Avenger, the storyline is from a human perspective.

Re: Dude, I must really suck.
This is insane though, I used to be able to play the campaign from start to finish on Insane mode. Jesus, what happened to my non-shield skill? :(

Re: Dude, I must really suck.
I feel the same way, I remember finnishing FS2 on very hard including refusing to finnish the Sathana's battle without destroying all of the beam turrets before it warped and destroying the later arriving Demon's engines and eventually it......but now I'm struggling to destroy 2 Sathana's cannons and get away on very hard..... I still trash the Demon though.... hehe they should have given it more than 1 engine..... I've tried saving the Renenet a number of times by destroying the Demons primary cannon but it will leave if I don't trash the engines and the dam bomber is to slow to get to the other side and take out the other cannon..... or the Renenet is to stupid to stay on the safe side.... you choose.

Re: Dude, I must really suck.
What really turned me on to FS1 is that you start the game without shields and find the technology later. It set the game apart from all the other mindless Star-Trek-clone games.

I know it sounds stupid, but for some reason I just like playing without shields. Maybe it's that high weapons damage and low armor make the fighting more intense and force you to be a little more careful.

Re: Dude, I must really suck.
it really added to the game, I started the Freespace series with FS2 and going to FS1 really made me change my tactics, being all brave and doing strafing runs that cost you your shields that you recharge following the run weren't an option.

if you started getting hit you had to address the situation immediately and didn't have the luxury of relying on a simple recharge for the next battle.
