Question on Mission 1 in the demo

I seem to be having an awful lot of problems with jumping out once the **** hits the fan.

I think it took me like 10 tries before I got past that mission, simply cause the jumpdrive would activate and start humming in the oh so familiar way, then do nothing, just keep humminh until I got shot down.

Aborting and trying again doesn't seem to work.

Eventually I got past it by parking under the friendly Sobek, which kept the baddies away, and gave me enough tried to finally be able to get out of there.

Don't know if this is really a BWO problem, only I've never had any problems with it before, even in missions where you have to jump under similar conditions(like "...but hate the traitor").

Anyway, the demo looks great, can't wait for the full thing

I'm surprised you've never had that problem before. Happens to me all the time. Usually killing your speed and letting it go to 0 or maxing the speed and letting it stablize out works. Also, holding or continually tapping the button works.

This is not a specific BWO problem and again, I'm very surprised you've never had it before.

Ok...wierd, I musta played FS2 though at least 30 times, my current pilot has something like 7500 kills, and I had one before with a couple of thousands as well, never had this problem show up.

Go figure...maybe Im just too damn good

Anyway, thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try.
