Have to admit I fail there, except the last one.

That's the key. I first got 50% of bombers and scratched my head for moment before realizing you have to first hunt the bombers farthest away.

As here's already tons of stuff in this topic, I'll just put my opinions shortly: - WC is an average game movie = bad; but I don't think it had any effect on the death of game series (give me one game movie that has done any good or bad to the actual game franchise) - furry cats are way...

Haven't had any of the supernatural kind of creepy, but one natural comes to mind: One night I was playing, already had lights out. I feel something on my foot, assume it's just a hair but take a look and... A freaking daddy longlegs aka harvestman is climbing my leg! And that's almost...

Minimum? I'm playing on 650MHz AMD K7 with 128Mb RAM and 32MB graphics card (GeForce 2), Win 98. Still very playable... except in big battles it's better to keep looking away from the crowd :p

I think I've asked this before but... How do I right click the nav when there's 30 ships and their mother on top of it?

(WC1, WC2, Privateer, Prophecy/SO/UE/Standoff, WC3) Old adventures for me: 1.) Monkey Island 1/series 2.) Loom 3.) Fool's Errand (incredible puzzle game) 4.) Larry 1/series 5.) Mean Streets (Tex Murphy series) Other favs: Grim Fandango, Master of Orion, Populous, Kingmaker, One Must...

Hobbes says "join Sivar, kilrahra" when killing (in WC2?). I interpret this on two ways. 1. Refering to enemy as kilrahra, of lower class, is an insult. Yet he tells him to join Sivar; I think this suggests there's only one afterlife, all by/connected to Sivar (although this one realm of the...

In the last missions the cats seem to be well on their toes, like they are expecting some kind of attack. But this is deep in their space, there shouldn't be need for extensive patrols... unless they know something. And Thrakhath and Hobbes waiting for you at the end...

But much easier than Unknown Enemy.

I think the real mistake was to take Episode 1 too far back in the timeline. 2&3 just couldn't possibly bridge the gap between 1&4 and this made the story move on fastforward. I mean it's nice they (more or less) explain everything in the end of 3, but it's still silly to have half of the story...

Downloaded the 1.29 installer. I still have much problems with the epilogues, trying to watch or load them (history or save) crashes most of time. However I now did once see both good endings; earlier only saw the best (apparently when I should've seen medium?) and the other always crashed. At...

Back then it seemed reasonably good, might have even compared to Jedi, but it hasn't aged well. 2 & 3 aren't as good as the old ones and they're still clearly better than 1. I can take the race. Long streched out scene, but one of the better elements of the film. The kid may be annoying, but...

I've had that once too (in non-updated original version).

Reminds me of something: read WC2 file module.000 There are some interesting pieces of text among the code such as:

Yeah, first time ever sarthas scare me. Propably just random crashing happening more than usually; maybe from number of ships and missiles (though that shouldn't be worse than in few biggest battles). Or maybe it's just that I can't bother to quit and restart the game after every death...

How many planetary colonies do we know sizes of? I'd be easier to compare life on planet and on station if we had an estimated size of a planetary city. (I would assume a colony, even one with millions of people, would still be a single city, at least for most part. Correct me if you have...

It's interesting question in all Prophecy/SO: is Nightmare really the hardest? The wingmen seem to help much more and often missions with huge battles are at least as easy as in any other level. I've played Standoff through on Nightmare (though failing number of missions); through winning...

Oh I've played it with an actual 386SX (looong ago) and some of it still happened. But worth trying I'm sure. "free-floating cockpits"? Can't remember seeing that one. Strange takeoffs and landings yes.

In the conversation between Maverick (or whatever you called yourself) and Thrakhath in the beginning of the mission where he escapes there's a bug: the image of the prince is sometimes replaced with Stingray or Maverick (going schizo?). Also the talk ends a bit strangely on "then I'll fight...
