Hi, i got a question reffering to a ep 3 mission (the one where you meet with the concordia pilots and then go for a ralatha->snakeir), it should be no. 13 in the "good" branch.
Well i downloaded Standoff yesterday and really liked the "old" feeling of it so i decided to go for nightmare. So far it worked out well but right now I'm having really frustrating probs:
- in nightmare with rapier everthing works out, but always the crossbows get gunned down too fast, i always get the "retreat message" at the snakeir nav, doesn't matter if i first kill all fighters or all turrets or mix it up, I'm through all of it by now ~3 times
- in nightmare with gladius it seems a bit harder because figher hunting takes much longer but ralatha goes down faster if I use 1 torp. there (but it would be better to use both at the snakeir later on I guess), but also here most of the times at least 2 crossbows go down before the first navpoint is clear
Ok - so after the (i think) 10-12th attempt with the same prob i just told mysef "well i'll do it in rookie" because i was getting frustrated..
- in rookie everything pops like nothing but still i lose a least 1 crossbow before the snakeir, sometimes even in the first approach
- at the snakeir nav point I'm out of enemies after some minutes but even if I spare my 2 gladius torps sometimes the crossbows just don't get the snakeir down, last time (the rookie try) 2 crossbows were alive at the end and seemed to be empty, at least the were not firing any torps at the snakeir which seemed kinda lonely without fighter escort![Wink ;) ;)](/chatzone/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png)
anybody having the same probes? I think i will solve it by taking the gladius and just wait next time until 1 crossbow manages to hit the snakeir with 1 torp. and do the rest on my own but i was wondering if I'm doing anything cruelly wrong here ... or is it just my luck
greetings
