  • Ok,


    ok,ok......first let me say that I like the Crossfire Mod so far. But one thing bugs me and


    that is that the support from taking jobs eraticating other ships (sp) seems to be missing.


    In other words I like to hedge my bets. Call it wimping or what ever. I take jobs where I


    know I'll eventually get some support. So far every job I take that is suppose to have


    support, does not. Has this been written in to make it more challenging? It's not a


    complaint but it does rub a little in what seems to be an outstanding Mod with a LOT of hard


    work put into it. So just call it a foot note and I'll get on to playing Crossfire. [4]

  • Maybe a backup should be friends of your,


    you with sevrel others in a group, they can backup you :))

    I've been here since Crossfire 1.5 - 2005.
    Good times.
    Maybe it's time to come back?

  • I havent


    checked that since 1.52 there def used to be other pilots available on some missions.

  • Don't know about previous additions of CF but in


    Vanilla SL some missions as you say are solo and some have support. I'm a wimp or atleast


    like the odds in my favour. So I normally opt out for support. Heel with the Titan (in


    Vanilla FL) fully tricked out I normally dispatch all bad guys before support arrives. No I


    was just wondering if this was omitted on purpose or something overlooked. Does make it


    challenging, but so does going after a fleet of bad guys in your underwaer. [10]

  • I have done


    missions where support was supposed to be there, one ship turns up, and promptly gets


    killed.


    This has happened several times.


    Best to phone a friend I think.

  • Then, perhaps, they showed up and then departed for


    another world. The after world, heheh. Anyway you look at it I'm very cautious of gun and


    run missions now. I try to stick to traid with a bight. [4]

  • you do get support on some missions but its not really worth having and in the tougher


    lvl 40 missions the support dies in 30 seconds

  • Even weak support makes for a useful distraction! Once you get a REAL ship, even the


    40+ missions are gravy train...

  • People, I'm 58 years


    old, and I'm about as good as they get (conceded though that sounds). But Video games is a


    different story. Here I'm barely holding my own. I'm not quicker than some of these NPC,


    so I have to try to be smarter. If ya know the dog might bight, don't stick your bloody


    hand in it's mouth. But then I guess if your quick and nimble sticking your hand in the


    dogs mouth just means it can't bight as hard. Still, have ya ever tried to get rid of a


    rabid dog hanging on your arm? Tain't easy. [4]

  • The problem is not with you, but the equipment you are using.


    With level 9


    equipment, you need to pick your guns very carefully.


    Until I get some level 10 guns,


    killing them is a slow and often tedious business.


    Once you have 4 level 10 guns,


    and a decent shield, you can go out without bots/bats, and make more by selling your victims


    discarded ones.


    Why do it? 100k per tractor pod. Average level 40 mission is worth


    1.5M, takes about 10-20 minutes.


    Takes a lot of trading to make that profit, that


    quick.

  • Is this a Plane?


    NO!


    IS this a Monster


    Truck?


    NO NO!


    IT's a Big BUT that comes to


    us.....................



    [SIZE=4]BUT[/SIZE] The escape pods are 100k per one only


    at [SIZE=3]PLANET CROSSFIRE[/SIZE]!


    Evrywhere else it's just 1$!!!
