I'm so freakin angry...

So I solve mission #2 and rack up a lot of kills. But how do I die?

I fly right into the side of the jump point. BOOM!!

I'm developing a serious love-hate relationship with this game!!

ROFL

I did that in the tutorial. :D

btw, that transport is easy. Shoot it twice with your missiles and then a couple of times with your primary gun. Its dead. Btw, the fighters are easy kills if you shoot them nearly at point blank range with the missiles. (only way the missiles are ever effective against fighters)

The mission after the Narns is brutal. If you hate hyperspace, STAY AWAY!!!

The hyperspace dogfight was the easiest fight I've had. Of course, that's probably because they go slow and careful in hyperspace and, well, I don't...
Later...

When I did the fight, I kicked my speed up to 10kps and headed towards the other beacon. The fighters followed me, and when I got close enough to pickup the general beacon at the other end, I slowed down and killed them all in about 20 seconds. Easy dogfight, but very taxing hyperspace flight. I felt like I was driving 10 hours on the highway.

I originally lost the hyperspace dogfight in about 10 seconds because I would constantly make sure I wasn't too far off the beacon. When I restarted, none of the Black Omega fighers moved so I blasted them out of the sky and moved on. :D

Lavish use of my after-burners, and starting the slow-down process about 200,000 km from the beacon. :)
