Hello!
I would like to thank whomever developed Privateer remake; it's everything the original was plus everything I could ever have imagined I would want in it for the last 15 years! Wow, the graphics are great, the gameplay is better, and the bases more personalized etc.
After only 2 days, I already have my Tarsus all equipped to kill any talon with a nice ion cannon with the stabilizer as well as a straight shooting tachyon cannon (Thank you perry naval base!) and over 200k credits. The physics are far better, the shooting much better, it's just a better game. Wow!
I have a few questions though.
1. Why do the Kilrathi like me so for having killed 41 pirates and 5 retros?
I have found that for me the safest quadrant is Clarke because at times the Kilrathi and confeds are simultaneously killing pirates for me. I can pretty much cruise impune anywhere and I always have a friendly or three to help with even the most difficult combat missions (I take care not to go after Kats and Hunters, of course). Is this display of love for me a glitch?
2. What's better, Dumbfires or Torpedoes? I read that DF's have higher damage value, but Torps bypass the shields. Can you get the stabilizer with the DF missles?
3. I read about a cloak? Is there one and how do you get it?
Thanks again folks!
