What did you do on that one mission?
Where you worked as the secret ops in Freespace 2, I forgot the name but you went with an NTF raid on a GTVA supply deport.

A civilian transport than arrives begging for mercy; the NTF poised to strike the trap.



- I did the foolish thing and tried to keep my cover so I blew up the transport with a heavy heart. I died soon afterwards.

What were your stories?

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
Shoved half a dozen missiles up my squad lead's tailpipe, kicked in my burners, and waited for backup to arrive.

Boystrous 19 year old temp at work slapped me in the face with an envelope and laughed it off as playful. So I shoved him over a desk and laughed it off as playful. It's on camera so I can plead reasonable force.  Temp is now passive.

So did I but I blew up before I would've been able to depart. Since it turned out that I can't keep my cover, I played as a good guy next time.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I didn't move and let hem attack the sentry guns alone. That killed a few of them. Well, to be honest I did help the sentry guns a bit by weakening my squadmates a bit :P

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I tried killing it the first time, but was so inept at aiming, my squad accused me of being a traitor because I failed to kill it. Seriously. (I didn't know that I could just park and shoot at it.)
I then proceeded to dodge until backup arrived. :nervous:
Man, I was an idiot then...amazing I got that far at all.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I blew the transport up, then, after I found out that I couldn't keep my cover, I did the same to my former wingmen.
Backup helped my finish the Aeolus, though I mostly did it alone (disabling an Aeolus and getting close to it's rear engine is a marvelous solution against them).

 
Re: What did you do on that one mission?
First time I played i just stood and started thinking. A tad bit too long might I say. The guys started shooting at me. I shot back. I splashed Alpha and Beta and ran as fast as i could from the Aeolus. Then I got saved.
The second time I said "eh, what the hell" and shot down the transport and did all the rest just the same. I can't say command liked it :nervous:

 
Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I paused for a minute or two thinking about it in-game, then when they told me to hurry up I turned around and open fired on the NTF fighters  :lol:

Eventually they figured out I was hostile and started shooting  :doubt:

 
Re: What did you do on that one mission?
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."

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I stood idle there like an idiot waiting for "something else" to come along, nothing did and I ended up dead, on the second run I destroyed the transport and they attacked as well, but I survived... I was really mad at the frikking NTF firing squad (or something like that).

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I killed half of my wingmen just as they started their attack run on the cargo.

And then I murdered Jack Niven while he was in the middle of saying "Time's up, pilot! We know all abou-" *BOOM*

First time I played I tried to shoot my squad mates, but didn't kill any of them before they turned on me.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
"Oh really now, just kill a bunch of civilians like that? Well you know what? F*** That" and I started killing the NTF fighters instead. I was happy command finally deceided it was time to get me out of there afterwards.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
As I recall my wingmen were no use at all, they apparently either didn't attack or couldn't hit the sentry guns or cargo, and I was so screwed up by the sentries and doing my wingmen's job that when the transport arrived I said something along the lines of "ahahaha **** you I'm dying over here you do it jackass" while I tried to recharge my shields.

...they of course didn't, and I couldn't order them to. So I was happy to kill them when they went hostile.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I obliged without hesitation. :P
The first time anyway.
Then I experemented with other playthroughs.

I'm sure everyone's done that though. ;)

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I just kind idled expecting something to happen, as it seemed a bit fishy they wanted me in particular to blow it up. Soon after I was busy dodging.

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
On the first playthrough I refused to fire at the transport.  Then my wingmates got nasty and I blew them away eventually as well.  Tough battle.... I remember being down to 3% hull when friendly reinforcements arrived!

Re: What did you do on that one mission?
I hesitated and fired a few lazy shots until they started to ask me why I wasn't shooting it.  Then I realized "IT'S A TRAP" and hit the burners.  Unfortunately, I was playing on Hard and did not survive the furball.
