Is this the UFO base

Post by badhorsey » Wed, 17. Mar 04, 00:30

Stuck way out in Home Of Light. It shows up ??? on all the scanners, you can't dock with it, attempts to communicate are ignored, and if you attack it... well, let's just say the end result bears a startling similarity to the Khaak superlaser.

Here's a grab:

Tell me, do your UFO's look like TIE fighters?

Also, just wondering, why does your Gravidar show you being in the middle of the sector and not show any station icons for the death star ... er... "UFO Base"?

The tractor beam screws up the Gravidar good and proper

And the base is still a distance away. It's BIG.

Of course you can't dock there. It's under construction still. :)

Ok, no more jokes and undetectable (to me) sarcasm. Have you seen Star Wars? What you see, my friend, is the Death Star.

You have a mod installed, and that is one of the results.

You can't communicate with it or detect whether the defense shield is down because they are jamming your signal due to the fact they know you're coming :)

did you look behind the planet for the big SD fleet waiting to trap you?

Always one spoilsport in every joke. :roll: :P

That's no space station, it's a Xenon planet buster. :P
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.
