Hey all. For some reason this has been on my mind lately - where can I find more info on the Landreich? I've seen almost nothing about them before, aside from the bits in the CIC database, and the odd mention by a bartender in Privateer...

Ack, that's right, they're moving towards you in this mission. Now I remember the part I missed...you have to burn PAST them first on the first run, and be quick about turning around at around 8000-9000, cutting your throttle. Basically you're making a 180 burner slide as you start to lock your...

STICKY THIS... :p

Hey, it worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, practice torpedo runs on full afterburn. Once you master those (and can dogfight really well for the other parts) this game is dead easy. :)

I was in the prerelease, and it didn't impress me terribly. The characters were over-sexualized and the gameplay was subpar. I went back to Diablo 2 from this, then back to Ragnarok Online where I stay. :)

Look, the Dorkathra (renamed by me) is the WC3 Kilrathi transport, all I did was name the thing. As for Spiritplumber's Draymaster thingamajig? Ask her. :p

That's what I did to ace this mission. First: Engage and destroy the enemy fighters far out from the capships. If you can't evade friendly fire at this point, I laugh at thee, because it's pretty late in the game. Second: at 12000k, lock torpedo. Third: Punch your burners, full speed, hit the...

Yeah - with an AI pilot, a single Gothri should make a single Rapier into swiss cheese, actually. A Sabre is more a match, while the Morningstar was what Confed had planned to beat it with (sim only in Standoff, AFAIK). Still looking forward to that Episode 2 release. :)

I'm going to throw out a guess and say normal flight consumes fuel?

Yeah, make it "psychopathic cat eater" instead. I love kitties, but my mother is allergic. I'll get a cat once I'm out of university and can support one. For now, I make do with my stuffed kitty that lives on my bed. :)

I found UE to be very professionally done. What, may I ask, did you miss? I'd like to hear some of the bloopers, so I can go back and see if I can find them! :)

Well done. *applauds* Question: how's it handle on software-rendered mode? I have an ATI card and Ubuntu, but an excessively overpowered machine. :p

Sound Card: Creative Labs makes the badassery, if your onboard doesn't cut it. I'm using a 5-year-old Soundblaster Live and it's kicking plenty of arse right now and taking quite a bit of sound load from my CPU. Speakers: Altec Lansing makes the best subwoofers I know, but their satellites...

Eh...can't fly in it. XD Still, it'd be fun to try out FPS games on, for sure.

Well, I'm a semi-n00b at FPS games. First time I played a FPS with a mouse was actually UT2004...and before that I'd tried a few times with a controller and it was nothing like it. The mouse just offers a wider sensitivity range and more physically natural motions.

1994-1996 was really the golden age of PC gaming. We saw kickass titles like WC3, WC4, the Crusader series, X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter, Mech2, Descent 2 (one of the most underrated games of all time, and IMO one of the best multiplayer online games of all time), Lords of the Realm 2 (wonderful...

Those are both reasonable, considering my PC Afterburner 2 ran me (in a rough US conversion) around 75 dollars. GREAT stick though, definitely my recommendation for anyone who can't afford a Cougar ("and who the HELL can these days...") :p

I personally have not used missiles as much as most. My starting priorities are: - Mass Drivers - Afterburners - Jump Drive or Tractor Beam - Other one from above - Neutron Guns - Cargo Expansion, or a Galaxy :p Basically I try to get up to a Galaxy as quickly as possible. I find it's a...

Milspec guns are Perry only and Autotracking is REALLY rare anywhere, period. I've found it as far out as Oxford before though...

Meow! Hey, I had orks on my logic practice exam, you never know when it comes to professors...=^_^=
