where is the difference between Sol and Sol2 or better, where is Sol2 ?! ;)

Since I am running WC:U on my laptop and in regard of other low-tech systems (if a 1.6 Centrino plus Radeon 7600 counts as a low end Oo), I'd recommend instead of dumping models to lower res-mechs, to do missions where you haven't got to fight 17-20 enemies. A different approach would be to...

That'd be a solution, because otherwise to built a WC One Campaign would require a whole new set of maps that are immensely huge!

Yeah, I noticed the difference between the standard AI and the WCU AI instantly, and I am pleased and harrassed by it :D Those damn ships are even smarter than in the Remake, but it is also more fun. I just think the random mission generate should get a bit more attention

and how would you do that, when you get clear shots on some talons, while his six friends are punching wholes through your hull and shields? Lasers and tachs are good on long distance, but you need a weapon that can break a hull down in seconds if you wanna fight missions where you encounter...

Yes, but this would result in a constant battle for jump nodes and we haven't seen much of it in Wing Commander, so I think there is still another way that would allow battles spanning a system without the opposite party seeing one. Otherwise the idea behind Wing Commander would be entirely...

damn, that's why I am so worse in any combat situation and just barely survive a dogfight with 3 fighters Oo And I don't have any wingmen, because they all cost 25000 and a dogfight just gains one around 5000.. that's a gap that has to be closed in the future, imo. (Since the best weeapon I...

I encountered a problem by continuing with my savegame after I played through the original campaign. I now have the BoostedSteltek and Privateer 1 armament, but while I could have killed one talon with two shots (max.) during the original, with WCU I need five-six shots and I get bashed down...

Yeah, but it would be considerable more difficult to jump in and we haven't seen any such fights in Wing Commander, so that leads me to my suggestion, that there are secondary or tertiary jump nodes further away from the in-system jump nodes...

yes, perhaps its because I didn't play RF yet ;) I am not afraid to run down 17 fighters (with my boosted steltek), I am more concerned about the original feel of Privateer. It is jpust unlikely that 17 pirates would appear all of the sudden from nowhere ;) And it is also stupid to see that...

As I see it, the problem looks like this: We have the original Wing Commander, which (f.e.) takes place in Enyo System. There you have to fly several missions along some nav-points, escort a freighter to a jump point and such things. Well, where would be the point in doing a nav-point...

Ok, I have just a few balancing suggestions and mostly some space races related: Merchants and Hunters are enemy, as are Merchants and Confed. Is this accidentially or wanted? First, there should be a ranking of the strenght of the different parties, like: -Confed/Kilrathi -...

i still believe this is ridiculous, because I won't never ever be able to defeat all those ships Oo Now, that I have installed the WCU extention it is even worse... Well, till this is the only point to complain about. It needs a lot of refinement (f.e. some wingmen so that all the fighters...

How would something like the Wing Commander Campaign actually work, if we know the situation about jump nodes from games like Privateer? I mean there are 8 tightly packed jump holes and they could be easily controlled, so what about sending out deep-space exploration or even 8 Nav...

Can I play with my Privateer Remake Savegame or should I start a new game, better what features don't work in the first? I'd like to know, because I don't want to go all over the buying and outfitting process again :D It had cost me ages to get a centurion with a decent outfit :) Or is...
