Missile barrage? Viper front turret?

Post by Damian Swift » Sat, 22. Jun 13, 23:13

Is there an easier way to use missile barrage instead of flicking through several menus?
I looked for a hot key but couldn't find one?

Also, this may seem like a very stupid question :oops: but the Viper (my current ship) has rear and front turrets
I stuck a PBE for missile defence on the back but the front says 'missiles' ?

so it will automatically fire Tommahawks ? Maybe set it to protect ship?

The turrets that say missiles are for the purposes of the barrage command, it will fire 8 tomahawks per salvo.

I fly a Viper myself, there doesn't seem to be a way to directly select missile barrage but shift-C opens the command menu which shortens the time to fire significantly.

The missile turrets will fire at targets if you set them to. I found this out accidently after setting all turrets to missile defense (including g the missile turrets). I was dropping the shields of a capital on a boarding op, and must have taken a stray shot. Soon after, 20 marines went BOOM :evil: I heard the launches, just assumed they were mossies.
