Hovis and hard shouldent be in a sentince without the word &

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Hovis, Hard to beat?! Mods to skip him? WHY?! He is SO easy to beat! I could beat him with a freighter! I am leading him at the first Corrodor, With a freighter! Anyone ever play a racing game? It is SOO easy! My best, WITHOUT a mod is, in the first second a press "w" and "Tab" than click on the cruise button, DON'T USE THE GO TO, Use free flight, Get ahead of him on every ring ( As with any racing, with any turn comes a short path and a long one ), No foolin, Just stick to the side. If I could, I would record and post Fotage of my runs with him. I am ahead with him, ( No mods or cheats ) Just skill and experience, At the First corridor, Half way and last stretch. Some times i wait a or half a min. before crossing the finish line. Couse of this little race I am a little better at racing games. And also, Become one with the Music and you will flow through combat, racing and esc. The only way he ever won, was by cheating and Playing against people even sorrier than that exiled Liberty gambler. ( The bartender told me how he was exiled from liberty couse he but a bomb on a sanator's son's ship or something like that ) THIS IS NOT A STUPID VIDIOGAME,THIS IS LIFE!

i heard someone beat him in a cruiser without any other mods.

This topic has been covered a millions times already. For some he is hard and for some he's a push over.

Yeah Shodan is right in both points. Just cause something is easy for you doesnt mean that you should look down on the others that have difficulty with it. And could a moderator please lock this and let it die peacfully?

Here hold my pint while I steer the ship. Of course I'm kidding you stupid bloak, you think I'd trust you with the beer?

Beat him first time too, not Hard, even when he tries to cheat.
second time I played through the campaign, he beat me once, only cos the damn cruise engines started than like stopped, had to press'em again, but the bloody things went off again, I was pissed off, I notice this seems to happen if ya near objects, it's very anoying. anyway next time round I got him easy.
