I'm sure this question has been discussed before, but I'm new to CF so please take pity. At least until I finish SP and then try MP, then I ask for no mercy, I'll just hug you with my vengence.
What's in the Nomad Outpost in Styx and how do I dock there?

Hm inside the Nomad Outpost... well - ahm - guess Nomads are in there. They look ugly such that a human would become sick if you look at them more than just a second. Thatswhy its better to shoot them everywhere they respawn. Besides the fact that you need a battalion to dock there - nothing really important for SP or MP is inside there.
Isnt this description more stimulating than just posting whats in there?

In MP it is an Admin base. Players cannot dock there.
Michael once reported that the base is dockable in SP by shooting the shield generator to reduce its power then docking. It may not be possible to destroy the shield generator.

Your right Bullwinkle, I've tried unloading a supermarket full of artillery at that generator and in the process got nowhere, used all my ammo, got seriously ticked off and therefore have decided to make my sole purpose in CF to bitch slap every Nomad I ever see again. Boy are they in trouble!!!
P.S. I think I need to calm down, and maybe try to enjoy my new avatar... no, I think I need...
a beer.

lol

It's the base of THE DARK SIDE!
So it's probably loaded with cookies.
-
lol, I wonder how people don't get the way to get inside that outpost You also have to manually move your ship until right under the station, by where the light beam goes.
The best ship and equipment for SP(SinglePlayer) is located there, SP(Server Police) stuff !
-
There's also a Boobs 'Я' Us store there. So I'm told.

lol, I wonder how people don't get the way to get inside that outpost
Given the vanilla experience at Dyson City, it seemed obvious to me that destroying the shield generator was the key to getting inside the base. The fact that I could attack the generator without the base turning hostile seemed to support that idea.
There is no previous experience that would suggest that we could lower the force shield around the base by damaging the shield generator. All previous experience suggests that we must destroy the generator.
For me, that was the piece of the puzzle that I found mysterious.

So Micheal...Is it worth my time to attempt this folly? How do you know when the beam is lessened and do I need to be right under the outpost to dock. Every attempt I've made to dock I just sit there and wait and wait...then those bloody blue pests (Mad's) show up to crash the party. Sometimes I wonder if a real sexy Nomad lives there and makes you beg before you can enter.
-
I suggest you forget about docking there & this thread gets deleted. I`d hate to see anyone be dumb enough to try & attempt to dock at that Outpost... Especially now that every single person can read how it`s (or maybe isn`t) done. -
The Station cant be docked.
End of the story.Btw, Micheal, how did u do it...or are u just a big FAT liar? LOL
-
Well gentlemen, after a little check...
the outpost is shielded with a destructible shield (blue line under the selection frame). If you click the station and select the object view (wireframe) in the lower left hud window and you use the arrows to scroll between items, you'll get the shield... i haven'T found how to hit it however....
So basically it should be possible to lower the shield....
-
this becoming very interesting, there is a way ofc...only what you need is a special weapon which can destroy this boring shield. How? One shoot and shield is down, however there is a trick (like in every game)...
special weapon can be obtained only in the dark corner of this Nomad's station.
-
Dark corner?
U have to enter that station first which is illegal -
Hellraiser, we're speaking about the SinglePlayer way to dock to that station, on MP you can't, there is no enrance for it.

No no no,just sitting there and wait for it to dock you is the worst way counting that there is no full sequence to dock with it. It will just get you arround and colloding until you die ... lolThere is one little zone, exactly under the station (by where the beam enters) where is the docking bay zone... you have to go there manually and then press dock. Haven't you ever heard about "fast docking" ? it works with jumpgates/holes dock bays and planet docking rings... if you want to dock faster with a planet you jut go in middle of the ring, and rdy, no docking sequence. Instant docking. The same with the nomad outpost, there's no docking sequence, you put in middle of the docking bay and dock. And the bay is exactly under it, like a battleship.
Btw, Micheal, how did u do it...
told it...or are u just a big FAT liar? LOL
Next timeyou see me in-space... aware... LOL -
I was just kidding.
