Q: What sector do you spend the most time in?

[G3David]

I have some general off-topic questions for everyone:

1. Where are you right now in vegastrike?
2. Where is your stomping ground?
3. Do you like to roam?
4. Have you been to earth?
5. If so, did you have to cheat?
6. If not, tell me how.

I'll start myself:

1. alpha centauri, next to the pseudo sol system
2. currently in search for Earth
3. yes
4. once
5. yes, and have since then started over and only gave myself money to make an honest existence.
6. when i get there, i'l let everybody know

1. Lost
2. Currently in search of Earth (wave to me as I go buy G3David!)
3. I'm a nomad. Find a likely spot, make some money, then continue on my odyssey 'In the Search for Earth!' (what was that space cartoon show??)
4. That's where Ah'm a headin'.
5. Hope to avoid, its a test of VS gameplay.
6. When I do it, I'll mention it.

My personal theory? It's the fault of the Rlaan. Those bug-eyed green alien monsters. I knew from the beginning they were nogoodniks. It's always like this with alien monsters: turn your back on them for a moment, and they'll stick it to you from behind. They must've done hidden off that jump gate at Proxima, the only known way to get in or out of the true Sol. So now we're all of us stranded away from home. Those bug-eyed green alien nogoodniks! No better than the Thargoids when it comes down to it.

Now where was I...

I'm suddenly reminded of Freespace 2... hmm.

Really? I've never played that game.

You don't really want to know how the game ended, just play it... trust me
Just one hint: There where alot of big scary ships doing something very bad to a star
FS2 is a really great game, but i liked FS1 part better (storywise)

So back to ontopic (in the off topic forum this isn't very hard )
1. stage_sector/stage (it's a experimental system )
2. i am defeating the "boxed ones" which are trying to bore me to death
3. Yes, a lot, but haven't had much time for it lately.
4. Only one or two times since i started playing vegastrike.
5. nope, i only cheat to get some fast money and then try to bugtest various things
6. it was quite easy, i just started a mission including the sol system

PS: I hope i didn't mix up FS1 and FS2?

[G3David]

i meant not starting there, starting in the default system.
could someone please make a mission from the default system that says:Take some misc. stuff to Earth: long distance cargo mission

P.S. i think the show name you were looking for was "Lost In Space"
(DANGER Will Robinson, DANGER!)

No, no.

It was a cartoon back in the 80's: an odyssey in space where the ship is trying to return to earth. The crew (somehow) have been frozen, and can only be released by returning to home. The captain, his kid and flunkies are the characters of the show.

All I can remember is part of the tune:

Ullysses, Ullysses
Flying through all the galaxies!
In the Search for Earth
dah dah dah dah dah dah....

EDIT found it Ulysses 31
