With the exception of one mission in the remaining series, you're in either the Vampire fighter or Devastator bomber. Given my tendency to need a lot of help when in a bomber, I chose the Vampire missions so that I at least have a better chance to shoot back. The Vampire has the best turning...

I knew I'd have a choice between doing the journal and reflying the G'mar missions after the recording glitch. I felt the journal was a higher priority since I won't be uploading the G'mar missions until Wednesday anyway. I'm looking forward to Lorien's return so that I have somebody else flying...

I ran into a recording glitch with the alternate missions by getting no sound, but I think I was able to record them successfully the second time. I'm surprised that it only took me one attempt to get thru those missions. Of course, the G'mar path will have to be flown again as well. If anybody...

I just finished up the alternative and failing missions for T'lan Meth with the alternate pilot. Dodo has 369 kills at the end of T'lan Meth, although I would have had more if mission 4b was not bugged. I had to bypass it due to constantly failing the mission, but there will be those failing...

Say hello to Jazz for us on the next mission series, and welcome to the most overused plot device for this and two more Wing Commander games: the traitor.

I still have five of the losing or alternate missions to fly for Dodo, but I will save those for later in the week. At the pace the kills are coming, I should be able to break 400 since there are ~ 10 kills or more per mission as an average. I added 18 new Photobucket shows to my album...

Outstanding! I'm looking forward to the WC2 experience from your perspective. Just watch yourself when flying those Epees later on. :eek:

I've ejected once on the Sol losing path mission in WC3, been shot down more times than I can count, but had fun along the way. It's been a learning process for me on how to adapt to the various game changes. Especially with Wing Commander 4 and that dangerous fourth mission. I consider it one...

I thought I'd save this journal for Thanksgiving Day today in the US. I wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving(even if you don't observe the holiday). I wonder how Lorien will fare in the Shrikes, but I'll have to wait for things on his end to get sorted out after that storm he mentioned in week 3...

Welcome back indeed! The special bonus is that I have yet to do the first Wing Commander. After my experiences with how to do WC2, I have a good feeling on how to successfully record the WC1 missions. After completing WC1, I'll look at WC2 including both Special Ops to see if I can get the...

Thanks for sharing these shots of that ship! As others have said, you don't get much of an opportunity to admire the moments rescuing the luxury liner. P.S. - Kudos to the other Prophecy artworks as well. Three cheers for the dedication!

Nice job on the Morningstar! The cockpit is a dead ringer for the one in WC2. No doubt it has the Mace nuke as well.

Thanks so much for the kind words. I still have WC1 to do after finishing Secret Operations to WCP. Due to the short two mission week, I had enough time to do many of the failing missions. I also did the T'lan Meth missions, and I can see I'm going to have to be extra careful when in bombers...

Experiment with other paths? Yes. Add videos of the failing path missions to YouTube? Yes. Journal the videos? No I have most of the failing path recorded with the exception of T'lan Meth. That excludes the Shrike Escort mission in G'wriss. You'll have eight additional videos with the five for...

Hey, help your girlfriend pick up the pieces. Hopefully not too many people have the same situation. We can wait, and I'm looking forward to your return.

The below is from Dundradal's reply to Wing Commander 4: Replay Week 3... Nope, I've been reassigned to special operations in order to complete a very difficult mission. It will be on the vids soon.

16 shots added to Photobucket for this round. Now that I have some expectation on the replay plans, I'm going to be just a bit crazy and go for the bad mission paths with a separate pilot. I'll call him Dodo in honor of the flightless bird that eventually went extinct...

I did not have quite enough time to get everything I wanted for screen shots, but I'll share some of what I have so far along with this journal. H’hrass 1 There is nobody in the Rec room to talk to, so I go into the briefing room to find out about my next mission assignment. I’m to head...

I stuck with an optimal mission path, although if you play without restarting missions, or specific mission paths you can get a pretty hefty kill count. And since you mentioned the graphics update, check out the detail this time. You just might need a hefty filter for shot #4. :cool: I added...

I'm ahead of the curve this time, and had enough time to also do my journal much sooner than usual. G’wriss 1 I notice some pilots playing a card game at one of the tables when I step into the Rec room. I also see Dallas looking out into the depths of space. I ask Dallas if he’s ok, and...
