Yaki Ships? Playable?

Post by DemiG » Thu, 17. Feb 11, 12:09

I recently went into yaki space and found a yaki shipyard and noticed that the yaki Military transport was quite a bit better then the otas. (I use military transports so i dont have to run to there aid every time they get attacked)

Yet when i bought a group of 3 yaki churkoro (or how ever you spell it) they wouldnt undock from the station. When i tryed to enter the ship and undock my self it wouldnt let me.

any ideas?

Go to another sector (aka OOS) & try to do it remotely.

Though personally I've never had this issue, & I use Chokaros almost exclusively (I've been trying a Zephyrus in my current game, but it sucks, so I've just sent it to Senator's to buy some alternates).

Yes, it is a known issue with that shipyard and Chokaros on certain docks. They will safely undock remotely from OOS as JAFA_NZ suggested.

Why is that ?

I’ve used both, thought they were both very good. In my current game I haven’t reached the W. sectors yet so got the Zephyrus at Legends Home instead, its one of the few OTAS ships that looks good, although not as much cargo space as the Yaki version. Jeez, you should see the Split TM, bloody awful, half the screen is blocked out with the cockpit view of the ship, feels more like your piloting an elephant than a TM.

Yaki Tenjin. Fighter, M3, two turrets. Nice Cargo bay.
Worth a look.

Plus it's got 9 main guns, and mounts both Mass Drivers, and Plasma Burst Generators. In short, it can rival most Corvette's for forward firepower, and ability shred targets.

I had that problem too. Even OOS it was still hanging up. I did a taxi run for somebody there and they released the ship. At least that was the connection I had made. I bought another one same problem. Did another mission and then my second Chokaro was able to leave dock. The fourth time I was able to leave dock without any mission services. Maybe it has to do with your faction rep with them I don't know but in my case going OOS was not enough.

Did it spawn on the internal, or external docks?
