Mission 21

I'm sure a lot of you have noticed that sometimes when you're trying to stay in formation, enemy fighters keep crashing into Diceman. The last time I did the mission, he crashed right into a basilisk, and it exploded. Microsoft must have overlooked this possibility, because the mission just continued.

I agree, the last mission is annoying - I only managed to save Steiner once (poor pal, he had to die so many times). Mission 21 is aniussance too, though, since U just have to stay in formation and do nothing. Waste of time till you get to fight normally (after re-launching from the Yamato, I mean). Speaking of being whacked by friendly turrets (the big ones) - this happened to me too (though I never managed to run into a friendly torp though - just didn't try). the only way is to stay away from their trajectory - usually it doesn't change that much.

I think its really easy. Stay in Formation and relax. I blew it once because I was out to kill fighters and did not finish the cruisers fast enough. So the kamov decloaked and scrapped the Yamato.

Being hit by one of the big Plasma bolts happend to me in mission 8 all the Time (if I did not get hit by a torpedo, that is...). Really pissed me off. You have a nice dogfight and suddenly Mousse screams "Get out!", of course you don't reach F12 fast enough (not that it would matter...), so all you see is a nice dustcloud of debris...

The most stupid thing happend in the pukov mission. Misstook a friendly torp for an enemy one. Shoot it down, and of course that so-called Co-pilot of mine had to take control...

i never had problems exept the first time i played - i afterburned all the way to the varyag and tried to scrap it... but hte varyag put up its shield...
and how did u get rammed into by the basilisks ? they never came near me... (mb coz they sensed the dangerous aura around me... ), and skill... i think all the missions need much more skill than luck. luck dosen't come into play in this game. and i still h8 mission 24 :S

Moose: watch out! missile on our 6!!
pilot(you):u r in the rear seat, and its at our '6' - u first.
