are you talking about a jump hole or a jump gate? single or multiplayer?

I have used the jump hole many many times in the single player game and I have just started multiplayer and am not that far.

To the best of my knowledge, there is no jump gate.

"On this ship you are to refer to me as Idiot, not you Captain. I mean... you know what I mean."

In MP it's locked.

In SP it'shouldn't be locked unless perhaps you beat the storyline to it.
What I mean is, some jumpgates/jumpholes only open after you completed a certain mission. Like the jumpgates fom New York to Califoria, Colorado and Texas only open after the second mission.

Try again after the sp campaign, it should work.

Why would it be locked in MP?

Life: No one gets out alive.

yeah, sorry... in mp... its not the only sigma13 jump hole that ive found locked either... how strange.

Well the New York to Magellan Jump Gate is locked in mp, and i wished it wasn't i like visiting the lane hackers!

@RILMS: I dunno, it just is. One of those typical FL thingies I guess...

I have had problems with accessing jump holes and gates in the past....I get "access denied" or simply nothing happens when I try to jump. I've always presumed it was a bug....I found that circling it a couple of times and approaching from a different angle sometimes works. I know it sounds odd but try it. Also, try to access it from as far away as possible.

The most irritating time this happened to me was during the SP campaign, Walker kept telling me to make the jump, but every time I pressed F3 I got "access denied". In the end I circled it almost 20 times, pulled back about 2K and tried again....which for some reason worked!!??!
