FreeSpace 2 (FreeSpace 1 Converted Campaign)

Hi,

Even though you had to change some things to make the campaign work on FreeSpace 2, but i have found changes that weren't required.

For Example, on Mission two of the FreeSpace Campaign, there is a Vasudan Ace in this mission.

On the Original Campaign on FreeSpace, the Vasudan Ace is in the Mission on ALL difficulties, but you don't get the Medal for destroying him if you don't use Medium or higher difficulty.

But in this converted version, you HAVE to play the campaign on HARD difficulty for him to even appear.

Also, i have to point out that the AI in FreeSpace 2 is more advanced then in Freespace, so there are people that are not as good as the developers of this conversion.

Lets just say, on FreeSpace, i can get up to the mission where you have to scan the remaining cargo after the other explode.

But on Freespace 2 conversion, i can't get past the Mission where you escort the GTSC Plato.

So, i think you should have made it EXACTLY like the original.

i may suck at this game, and you may be good, but you shouldn't make the game at your standards.

But otherwise, you did a good job.

Going by memory, with mission two it should be ok to quickly turn up the difficulty settings for that mission. It's only four wings of Vasudans plus you have your wingmen to help. I do agree with your point though, it could be hard to do this if your piloting skills aren't top notch. Also, like you said, they did a good job on it.

Are you talking about GalacticEmperors FS1 Port? Maybe you should check the corresponding forum at HLP then:

not really helpful. lol

also, about the wingmen helping me........they never help, they are dead within 5mins of the mission, if you are lucky.

Normally, they are dead within 2mins.


So they are not helpful at all.

All you have to do is allow the wing of Vasudans to appoach you. Wait until they are about 1000 metres away from you. Then afterburn straight at them, fire off one or two heat seekers, manoeuvre through their formation, dropping countermeasures as you go. Pull around, target one of them, stay on his tail for a few seconds whilst taking shots at him. Then, regardless of his condition, perform some heavy evasive manoeuvres as his friends will be taking shots at you by now. Choose a new target and repeat as many times as need be.

but its really stupid, i don't think that you should need to be VERY good to get promotions.

I think it should be based on what you do, not on what points you get.

Its like on Freespace, Mission #2, Destroying the Vasudan Ace is the Bonus Objective, if you manage to blow him up, it should show skill and you should get promoted there.

i would edit the missions myself and make myself invulnerable, but i get the 'unavailable ship' error for the GTD Bastion and the GTD Galetea.

Also, i get that problem with the mission where you capture the SF Dragon and on the mission where you fly it.

I wish if there was a modified ships.tbl available somewhere that resolves this problem.

If there is, can you point me to it.

Hmm. I know there is a way to resolve that. But it's midnight and I'm off to bed now. I'll have a look in the morning if someone else hasn't already done so.

ok, sleeptight, it is midnight here also ,but i am a nightowl.

I just have to say to the kind of person who edits the missions to make himself invulnerable.
