Prize for chasing down UFO?

Post by Marcin626 » Wed, 25. Aug 10, 18:24

Hello.
I'm just asking if there is some kind of prize (ship, ware) for following UFO for a certain amount of time.
I know that there was a prize for that in Reunion (Kha'ak cluster IIRC).
So? Should I bother chasing it down through many many sectors or its just a waste of time?

Cho T'nt: 'Man. We're screwed.'
Me: 'Look. They have SPLIT into groups!'
Cho T'nt: >: (

No, there isn't, and there wasn't one in Reunion either--if you happened to come across a Kha'ak cluster after a while following a UFO it was a coincidence, nothing more.

Strange, I remember that someone wrote (not on Ego forum) that he/she found a blue(!) Cluster, and then claimed it. Oh well, maybe it was just some kind of a mod.

I've had this. I'm pretty sure it's the Bail Extension AL plugin.

Like it has been said here. if you use a fast M5 with a triplex scanner and have it follow the UFO you will have a automated universe explorer.

So, it's better to lose an unarmed M6 worth millions rather than an unarmed M5 worth thousands? :P :lol:
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

Not so true, I did the Terran plot first thing in my game, and only had just enough for a Thresher once I finished the plot (finished it with a Heavy Hydra).

I had "Bribe a pilot" installed and the UFO agreed to work for me.

Talk about a piece of garbage. I want my money back.
