RE: Issues with 4.5.0

Just echoing Dirt12's questions - I've pretty much stopped playing because of 1) and 3) [:(]

RE: Defence against fighter torpedos

<t> I'd be happy if landing AI craft just dissappeared 10 - 20m short of the landing bay, rather than actually entering the bay if that would fix the problem.<br/>
<br/>
My observations were based on the final debrief screen. It's possible that the fighters that crashed into Archon were already ...

RE: Defence against fighter torpedos

<t> Well I finally finished Highland on Veteran as a destroyer commander. Two things of note, as Dirt 12 says, shift + u can target incoming harpoons, but the pdbs don't engage [:(] and of over 70 fighter sorties in the last two missions, 25% were killed by crashing into the Archon on docking (final ...

RE: Defence against fighter torpedos

<t> Thanks for your response. I've got no problem with torps being dangerous, they should be, but I feel that it would make the game more interesting to ramp up the pdbs as it would make killing cap ships more of a challenge on either side. Alternately, how about adding an AEGIS style dedicated anti ...

RE: Defence against fighter torpedos

Oh, one more thing whilst I'm thinking (ow!)

Could a "splash xx" message be added when a friendly downs an enemy. At the moment it's just distressing watching all the Force:Space death messages. [:(]

Defence against fighter torpedos

<t> Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
Well I've muttered about this before, and thought I'd give it another go on now that v4.5's been released. <br/>
<br/>
As a destroyer commander how am I supposed to defend against fighter launched torpedos? 8 inbound fighters, each launching 4 torps = dead destroyer pretty ...

4.0.3 Fighter Behaviour

<t> Having managed to get 2 new hard drives in my machine I've been replaying Operation Highland on a clean 4.0.3 install, and on Veteran difficulty, as commander of the Gerrond DESRON group.<br/>
<br/>
Slight spoilerage ahead...<br/>
<br/>
Well, all was fine, but now I'm getting creamed on Day ...

RE: Dynamic missions

<t> John,<br/>
<br/>
Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, having just checked my saves from last night I don't have one at the exact time the DESRON problem showed up [:(] - that was day 4 of Firestorm, I'm now on 19... I got round the problem by transferring to a cruiser group elsewhere. I ...

RE: two CDT's with saves

Funnily enough I also get CTDs with the Typhoon group - I'm at work (naughty me) so I can't attach the logs unfortunately.

Dynamic missions

<t> First off - just want to say I love this game and it's just what I was looking for. Seriously, Doom3's been sitting on the shelf while I try and complete Firestorm.<br/>
<br/>
Now a query: <br/>
<br/>
As commander of a DESRON I'd been assigned to attack a Cruiser. Started the mission and our ...

RE: Orders and command

<t> Neill,<br/>
<br/>
If you are in command of a capship then you can use the radio -> combat -> cover me command to get any other capship to form up with you. Even as a destroyer commander you can radio a few nearby cruisers to help [:)]. Works wonders turning up to a fight with 2 frigates, 2 ...

Problem with sector transfer

<t> Hi all,<br/>
<br/>
(One problem, some suggestions and possible spoilers ahead...)<br/>
<br/>
Got a problem with the AI transfering cap ships from one sector to another. I started a new Operation Highland under 4.0.2 and everything has gone fine up to day 8. I'm currently playing only using ...

RE: CTDs after installing 4.0.1

<t> 1) I'm getting CTDs as well. V4.0.0 was rock solid. Started a new "Shining Fortress" campaign and reached Day 3. Now that the cap ships have start engaging each other I CTD constantly when one is destroyed.<br/>
<br/>
2) Entering any mission for the first time after loading results in my ...
