lethal mission waypoints?

Mon Jul 26, 2004 3:27 pm by kelton

sheesh! what were the developers thinking? i don't remember what system this was in, but i kept getting missions whose waypoints always traversed VERY near a sun.
it was so near that it always resulted in death unless you steered away from it VERY quickly and that was almost always impossible to do in time when you're in cruise mode. one second the ship reports radiation and the next second your ship explodes. tsk tsk tsk... now that i think about it, it might have been in the Hudson system and it was from a criminal base. i don't remember which one.

anyone else have this problem? any other systems besides the Hudson have this issue?

I remember a couple times, the Mollys gave me some missions in the Dublin system that got near the sun. Never died, but almost.

I once had a mission from planet crete to take out some bounty hunters, and it was right on the edge of the area of the sun you can't go in, so i couldn't turn left to attack them

Once, my game was like screwed up cause I was single player modding, and the blood dragons gave me a waypoint into planet Kyushu. When I arrived, there was no one to fight. Man my game was messed up :/

The planners got screwed up

We Will fight in the space!

We will fight in the fields and in the belts!
We will fight in the galaxies!
WE SHELL NEVER SERRENDER!!!

Sorry Winston, but someone had to change it.
