Enemy of the State ...or: How I Did Blow Up Perry Naval Base

Post by Spaceman Spiff »

I think, I should get a special forum rank... Sth. like: Enemy of the State

You ask why?

Because I am (at least I hope so) the first person who blew up Perry Naval Station in Privateer Remake 1.2 (without cheating, I have to say). :D

How long did it take!!!!!!!!

After you killed all its stilettos did you use the faction relation keypecker that was invented in one of the other threads?

No, I've never read this thread befor.

It took "me" 23 minutes.

Here is what i did:

I bought the paradigm after the orig. campaign and did three cargo runs (everytime three missions at one run). Soon I had earned 114.567.954 bugs!!! :D
I went to Perry and bought some cargo wingmen. Did you guys know that a paradigm can carry 21 Broadswords, 27 Stilletos and 32 Gladius?

All I did was take position 15.000 away from Perry, release my wingmen and gave them the "attack my target" order. As said, it took the 80 ships 23 minutes to blow the station up. Most of my wingmen were destroyed by friendly fire. Only the Broadswords and one or three Stilletos survived.

The funny thing: The confederations main space station was blown up by a confederation capship and 80 confederation fighters. I believe they should rethink their selling old ships policy... hehe :D

BTW. Here is some proof...

BTW. Those confeds. are good losers. After I killed Perry my relations went down to +43 from +100.

Ach... they simply can appreciate a little fun among good friends... LOL.


Other thing. After I saved the game and reloaded, Perry was abck again. I consider this as kind of fraud... :evil:

:lol: :lol: :lol: Thats beautiful. It really is. And so delectably ironic. You should get a special rank. You have officially broken the awesomeness barrier right there. Assuming you haven't broken it already anyway.

Sorry Spirit, I don't have it anymore.

I kind of wasted a whole semester and almost lost my job as freelancer for a local paper just because I've been gaming too much... :oops: . I deleted all of my files and games and asked MamiyaOtaru to delete my account.

So this is kind of a goodbye...

all I can say is: keep on going, guys! :wink:

Ha, thanks for the flowers but as it seems I'm allready back again. I was told to stick to gaming but limit the time I spent on it. To work out working plans and stuff like this. They say abandoning one distraction will just bring on an other one and not solve the problem... :)
By the way I'm workin again... :D

So, atlk to me you are my medicine... LOL

Hi,

as said, I deleted all of my files including all of the savegames. Well, I'm not in the mood to play all campaigns right now again. So, can anybody send me two savegames? The first one should be after the orig. campign but befor RF. The second one after RF. The bounus campaign shoud not be startet yet, in neither of the two savegames. Shipconfigurations, money and relations don't matter. I don't need the serialized_xml files...
This would be really nice.
you could also post it anywhere and tell me where i can download it... :D
Thanks in advance!!!

Well then the confed is pretty poorly defended. Ive destroyed New Constinople several times with the Paradigm and fighters the way Spaceman Spiff did. Whatevers left of the confed can be left to the kilarthi :P

Now I really wish I'd saved up for a Paradigm before finishing PR....

So basically this is it then? Get a Paradigm, load up a set of Broadswords as wingmen and just plow through space?

They rebuilt it, obviously. It's a frontline confederate naval base, you think they'd have an emergency plan to do that kind of thing, especially with the green death the cats are packing these days. The real kicker would be if it came back again - maybe it has nine lives? ;)

What surprises me, is that you had so little fighter resistance. At one point, the Perry base had over two hundred fighters, at least ten of which were Crossbow cap-hunters. As to the faction change, that would seem to be a faction system bug.
