Flyable Ships In Demo

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!

Flyable Ships In Demo

So how many flyable ships are there in the demo? I've heard five, but have only seen two that you can actually buy, and the one you start with. The others I've seen require you to be level 2, and the demo automatically ends when you get there.

You can buy the following ships:
Starflier
Rhino (or whatever the liberty frieghter is)
Patriot
Startracker
Defender
If you look, you will notice that you can BUY 5 ships. However, you can only FLY 3, because the other 2 are level 2 ships. So bascially, the 5 ship statement is just BS to get you to try the game. However, i'm not sure of this, as there might be some hidden base we are all missing.

You can buy the Rogue fighter at a base somewhere.

There is a Junker Base (Rochester) in the debris field "north" of Manhatten that sells a Bloodhound.

I like my Rhino. Nicknamed it "Bebop"

Post Sun Feb 23, 2003 7:20 am

You have to be level 2 to buy the Bloodhound. I just spent 15 minutes combing the debris looking for the base, then saw that.

I'm already pretty bored with the demo. While it is just a demo, there's not much to it. I'm just ready for the whole thing.

You can name your ship ?

It would be nice if theyd ammend the Demo to let you advance to level 2, so you could actually fly more of the ships and use more of the weapons. No additional missions or anything would be necessary.

I think once you hit level 2, you're able to go to other systems, so that decision makes sense. The point of a demo is just to give you a taste and make you want more, which is exactly what this one does. Though it would be nice....

Thankfully, we only have about a week left....

When first the demo automatically quit whilst I was pwning it was a very sad experience. Now I am CHOMPING at the BIT to play the full version! I have never anticipated any game this much IN MY ENTIRE LIFE !!!

because if you want to buy the startracker (planet manhattan, Demo) you get to hear that it's a lvl 4 ship

If you nicknamed it in honor of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character, I believe the TMNT rhino's name was Rocksteady. The pig thing was Bebop. I believe. Don't quote me on that. Just a thought. Ya know what, ignore that. I don't really think I want to be known for my Ninja Turtles knowledge, even if I'm wrong about the names. Screw it. I think I'm right. I dunno. Just felt like speakin' up. Not trying to smart off or anything. Nothin' but love for ya'll.
