Ride the Wave on a Supernova

Wed Mar 26, 2003 1:45 pm by Supernova-Surfer

Hey Freelancer Maniacs!

Wanna try something cool?

How about creating a supernova?

How?

Well i dont konw if it works in every system but me and my buddies were playing a mp lan game and were wondering why the sunslayer torpedo launcher has that name. well, because it can slay suns.

eight of us were positioned around a sun and all had sunslayer torpedo launchers. a short while after all of us fired one torpedo at the sun a huge, i mean realy huge blast happend. the shiel and hull damage went haywire but because of lots of hull and shield points and ****loads of batteries and nanabots two of us were able to ride the wave to the outskirts of the system.

realy cool ride, the only downside of this is the fact that all of us landed on the base in this system before attempting wwe attempted this. and now we cant get back in the game because the base and everything in the system simply disappeared. nothing left.

well if you want to try this, better do a backup of your character file, that way you dont have to start over like six of us. dont know if it is a bug but it rocks.

have fun boys!!!!!

Hm... a new poster and a story like that. Let's think about it. Hm... the only thing i don't understand is the fact there are 6 more days to April 1st left. Hm...

I say it's a hoax until someone can prove the opposite by providing screenshots.

I have to agree... my b/s radar is reading a strong contact.

Eeeek! I forgot to wear boots today, now my sneekers are going to be more smelly. Couple questions, what system? what base? what type of sun?

Now, and this is a true story, I can get signed testimony from 3 other ppl, and also signed statments stating the 3 signed statements were not done at gunpoint.

I was always wondering why the hornet cruise disruptor had its name, now when I was flying around a system I saw a huge space hornet emerge from the clouds, thinking quickly I fired my hornet cruise disruptor at it, and sure enough, that hornet could no longer cruise. Do you think this might have been a bug?

Ack!

most likely to be a hoax, the guy only has one post, just so happen the account name is about the content of his posting.

I tried it just for fun, got 14m from a blue dwarf and fired. Blew off my wings of course but no damage to the sun. It's just a name.

Mmmmm... I had 16 people in a game (lan party situation) on a LAN server...

Lets see, and after about 13 hours of testing every single god darned star in the game I have come to the conclution that one

That person is lying

Two, it was a huge fluke

or three, all 16 of the people who all fire 4 Sunslayer Torps at the sun at the same time must have been firing Duds.

Someday im going to edit the INI and make a ship invincible and then make the Sunslayer Torp Rapid Fire and Unlimited ammunition and just unload an entire torpido shower onto the sun in liberity, I hate it that much.

You know actually I dont have to do that, Just look in the INI's for the star's and see if you can find it, then look up it Damage Points Table.. and if it says 00 or has an unlimited sign, than it means that it cant be destroyed.
