Spectre Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 I have been playing for a while now and still have not fully figured out how the intruders board my ship. But now I deal with them by having all of my Marines patrolling my ship all the time while in space(except 3 each detention hold, medibay & transporter). I wish the Perscan displayed 2D images of the ship decks along with the existing lists with toggles which placed different colored dots representing individual units/types. I have recently had 40 prisoners (don't know how many intruders were killed... or the total number which had boarded) during one boarding raid (and one intruder in the aft weapon pod which my marines seemed to ignore) Finally, when I docked at a friendly station (and I swear, the intruder in the aft pod was firing at the station...) all of the prisoners and the intruder in the aft pod disappeared when I docked (thank god). Since I have not been able (as far as I can tell - n00bie...) to transport my marines onto an enemy ship to wreak havoc on them... he he... I assume that the intruders (who's ship must be cloaked?) dock with my ship and enter through airlocks. I am playing the Roam Mode and have been desperately searching for the artifact which allows you to see cloaked ships on the T.D. (although, my fear here is that I think I read somewhere that artifacts are not available in Roam Mode... *sniff* still not sure, just sad...) One time, as I was entering Earth's atmosphere, I received the warning that intruders were detected as I started planetfall. I then received a warning that the ship was taking damage... When it switched to the outside view of the craft, there was a large sparking fireball on the side of my CC which scared the heck out of me. I then heard the "thud" of an explosion. I was pretty worried as I leveled the ship off and opened the Logistics computer to see what was damaged, Low & Behold, no damage to my ship, and there were no intruders either... Could their (the intruders..) ship have burned up during re-entry? because, I thought I heard one of my marines ask for a bag of marshmallows just before the thud... I know, it's a dream I have... By the way I do a lot of work on 3-D models and use 3D Studio Max and many, many CAD systems. I would be interested in helping (pro-grata of course help develop some internals for stations and bases/buildings for FPS minigame... Just a thought... Love the games, can't wait for UCCE... Hurry!

Supreme Cmdr Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Artifacts are available in ROAM but they don't appear frequently at stations. Intruders do not burn up during entry. Intruders do not fire at objects outside the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectre Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Thank you, I will step up my search! Well, they should... That's a relief, I half expected the station to destroy me. And when those intruders do show up again me n' ole bessie (my trusty blunderbuss...) will be waitin' fer em... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
