A lesson on Omicron Lyrae...

Post by AdmiralTigerclaw » Thu, 10. Feb 05, 21:11

Don't take your time... you'll regret it in a single blinding flash.

And if you aren't there... well, that second message will tell you the place now looks like Xenon Sector 472, sans the Xenon, crossed with President's end.

Found out while I was working with my mod last night... I need to do something about the unknown objects taking hits, or NOT taking hits.
Heh... found a way around it though. Turns out that ten NOVA's can wipe them out OOS rather quickly.

But try not to fail Omnicron Lyrae...

I've heard that if you're in the mission and for some reason you leave the sector, the battle is lost, Banana Danna and your Ol' Man and everyone in the plot is killed. The Kha'ak take over the sec and life in the X uni is pretty grim but still playable..
At least, that'e what I've heard...

If you lose in sector, you get blown to smitherines along with everyone else... If you leave the sector, you have until the battle's set time to come back, or the Khaak will still nuke things. However, you will live on to look at the utter destruction that was once Omnicron Lyrae... Which you will then consider ramming yourself head first into the next Xenon K that comes your way for being such a fool.

Holy crap! If this is playable then we could have one of those parrallel dimension thingies like you see in those Star Trek episodes in The Return!

Like Ban Danna dies and all the others and if its playable you become like the next captain of the Argon in the game in the return! And then you save your father who has NOT gone into a coma and blames you for leaving Omicron to die! So then a big Khaak-Argon war follows.

Egosoft let us know if you have 2 choices! :D :D :D...

1st choice you save the universe as normal..

2nd one is a whole entire new galactic war...

I don't like to disappoint you, but Egosoft have already stated that any existing saved games loaded into The Return will be reset so that the Threat plot is completed successfully, all else being the same.

I am fully willing to let Kyle die... along with the entire cast of characters from the rest of the plot. The plot makes me want to put bleach in my eyes!
