How to Survive in the Dyson Sphere ?

Sat Mar 15, 2003 12:07 am by PurpleGerbil

OK dudes, just how are you supposed to survive inside the Dyson Sphere long enough to do anything

I am in an Anubis with the Orders Plasma type weapons. I have got to pound the hell out of a generator for 30 seconds before getting wasted but its red bar didnt even move. Most of my Shield Batts are all used up.

This game seems to have leaped from quite easy to totally impossible in the space of 2 hours game play.

To survive in the "Halo inspired sphere" load your autosave, hit your Cruise. fly alway from the nomads but toward a sheild generator. Fly to the spot facing the temple and hide in between the blue indent on the generator. Keep shooting till it blows up and do the same thing to one more generator and the enjoy the cut-scene.

Yep, just stay on the inside portion where the turrets can't hit you.

I did "hits and runs" with a lot of afterburner use, strafing and some torpedos to help.

PS: Since I am not english native please pardon my errors.

First, i tried just parking in space and shooting them, but that hurt a lot.

Then I began running the trenches in circles strafing each in turn. But the turrets still shot me up pretty bad.

Finally, I did was the others suggested. Sat in the trench, on the "inside" portion, where the satellite would block one of the turrets. That worked best.

Also, the generators are REALLY REALLY big, so it will look like you're in gun range when you're not yet.

Well, here's what i did,
Basicly, you want to take out the satilties first, since they have the guns. What you do is you go twards the sort of pocket between the turrets if you know what i mean. Kill your engines and basicly do a circle around those while firing, do the same with the shield generators. That's what i did. Worked for me the first time.

I flew straight down, then popped up and attacked them from the bottom. I was out of reach of the turrets, and the fighters ignored me for the most part.

Well, sadly, I was totally unprepared for the last few missions, I had no money, I had no shield generators/nanobots... It was a sad sight. So Basically all I could do, was fight nomads whenever there were any around.. I probably ended up fighting 3-4 phases of them before destroying both generators.. Why? Because they'd drop shield generators and nanobots for me.

Cheerz everyone ! This forum is outstanding. I have posted the same question on 2 others and had a total of 1 reply that said "Try Harder"

I just tried harder. That worked pretty good.
