Re: SILENT THREAT: REBORN RELEASED
It might not need to be easier, assuming Medium is the default difficulty. It's just right. Not too hard. On Easy, it becomes much easier, so if they can't beat Medium, they can play that. For those that want a challenge but think Medium is too hard, they don't really want a challenge. That's how I see it.

Re: SILENT THREAT: REBORN RELEASED
Just finished ST:R - excellent work.

Only one thing I noticed (although I doubt it's a ST:R problem):

When flying an Ursa or Medusa, my defensive turret spends most of it's time shooting down friendly bombs fired at my current target.  It was more than a bit annoying when 6 Harbingers were steaming toward the Hades either side of me only to be shot down by my own turret.  :wtf:
When the reactor explodes, it's usually a sign that you've taken too much damage.

Are you sure they were specifically shooting down the bombs, or did the bombs move into your line of fire?

I thought shooting down friendly bombs is only a feature in StarLancer.

Never has been and probably never will be.  :)

It certainly seems that the turret was aiming directly at the bombs, because there was no hostile target in the FOF.  I didn't think it was possible to kill friendly weapons either, but it looks like your turret can.

Glitch, bug?
It's probably going to turn out to be my PC's fault - I've got what must be one of the most broken Vista installs known to man, which typically results in hilarious instability in every other program. :(

Re: SILENT THREAT: REBORN RELEASED
I believe it is possible to shoot friendly bombs down.  You can't specifically target them but I have shot down friendly bombs by accident.  The turret shoots at your current target if there is nothing else to shoot at.  It can accidently shoot your bombs down also.  It does not specifically target the bombs.
Normal people believe that if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it isn't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
The difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers is:
Mechanical Engineers build weapons.  Civil Engineers build targets
An optimist sees the glass half full; the pessimist sees it half empty. An engineer sees that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Re: SILENT THREAT: REBORN RELEASED
You can target friendly bombs. The only time that I have seen my turret shooting friendly bombs was when I was targeting them. It's done that in retail and the SCP.

Re: SILENT THREAT: REBORN RELEASED
It's fun targeting friendly bombs--you get a nose-cam view of the warhead en route to its target, just like in Descent II. :) AFAIK you can't shoot them down though.

Oh, when it comes to targeting friendly bombs, you can do that, yes. But you shouldn't be able to shoot them down.

Here's some spoilerish eyecandy. Notice the glow the explosion casts upon the Soyakaze:
We have returned to continue our purification of this galaxy. It is again your turn to be crushed beneath the great force that is the Antaran army. All your petty squabbling with the other beings in this galaxy is meaningless. The Antaran fleet will destroy you all, one by one. You may not surrender. You cannot win. Your only option is death.
