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
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
Bergi
