- I completed the orgional campaign and gained access to the Confed Ships. All the confed ships seem to have hardpoints for missles instead of missle pods. I am guessing this is a throwback to the original Wingcommander or possibly from listed stats in Privateer. It seems odd that civilian craft have better design than military craft in one way; missle pods that hold 10 missles each instead of multiple hardpoints holding one missle each. In another way LOL if the confed is like our military, design contracts go to the lowest bidder so..... :wink: Maybe they would also rather have a miltitude of different flavored missles for various occasions.... I guess in theory this makes sense.

- I was able to purchase an afterburner for the Broadsword... but could not use them. When I press the TAB key for afterburners I get the afterburner sound but no speed increase.

- If you fill up all your slots on a ship you are unable to upgrade/purchase a new gun until you sell a component so that you have at least 1 free slot.

- When runnning a mission where the opponent talks to you i.e. Miggs, Kroitz, Seelig, the Steltek... the dialog appears very fast at times appearing before the voiceover speaks it. I usually have to scroll back to see what they said to me. It's hard to hear them over the comm link amid the laser blasts and screaming :P

- I am going through the RF campaign now. None of the talking heads that give you missions have voiceovers.

I don't remember the Broadsword having afterburners in Wing Commander 2...that's probably why they don't do anything. Remember, the Broadsword is Confed's equivalent to a heavy bomber...big, slow, lots of firepower, turrets for protection. I think the Crossbow from WC2: Secret Ops 1 had burners, if the Remake team decides to add those for whatever reason.

Yeap... I thought as much. I figured I would put in feedback on that so afterburners could be red for purchasing on the Broadsword.

The broadsword is a behemoth... but needs escort for sure :P
