    • predator battlecruiser


      how can i get that one ?

      Hi,
      I have just a little question: how can i get the proxima battlecruiser called predator ? Because i tried to disabled it but it does not work...
      Then do you know how i can get it ? (perhapswith a plug in or a cheat)
      Thanks a lot
      Enjoy! :laugh:

    • You can purchase the ship from Alpha Proxima after completeing a series of missions from them. The 1st mission starts in a system called "Talaria", you rescue a disabled Bird of Prey and bring them back to Alpha Proxmia.

    • Just a quick tip...this mission is a little different from the ones you may be used to since it begins when you rescue the ship -- that is, you don't get it by going to the bar or mission computer. Also, the crippled Bird of Prey might not show up the first few times you go to the system, so be patient.

    • Thanks but i do not find "Talaria" ? Where is it ? (which org it is ? fed ? rebel? independant?...)
      And, how much time (about) those missions takes to have that ship ?

      Talaria is, I believe an Independent system somewhere in the southern region of the galaxy (below Trugarti asteroid belt, below Lethe/Cydonia, below Polaris space). Just make sure you don't get it confused with Tularia, which is a different system altogether (I think that one is in Polaris space). So Talaria, with an 'a'.

      As for the missions themselves, it does involve a mission string; the first few missions should get you access to the Bird of Prey, if I'm not mistaken, and eventually you'll get the final mission (not as hard as the final missions for Polaris or Orion) which should get you access to the battlecruiser.

    • Fine, i m in that system but i do not find crippled bird of prey ...
      Is there any thing i did not do ? like attack rank or call with the government ...?

    • The mission has an incredibly low chance of appearing. I had to take off and land again for several game years before the crippled Bird of Prey appeared.

    • What the hell ! I think the problem comes from me !
      Because i have found the cribbled bird of prey and take the crew ... then i go to proxima
      Finally, when i land on the planet no message appears and i have again that mission incomplete.. something like: "take the crew from the cribbled bird of prey, beware of pirates and land to proxima (dont remember the name of the planet but in the proxima system ...and not proxima defender)"
      What can i do then ... ?? Is my ship or my pilot have any trouble ???

      Sorry, but I don't quite understand exactly what's going on in your situation. What comes up if you press 'I' to view mission information? Does it actually show up as an active mission? If not you'll have to start it over, go to Talaria again etc. etc.

      Otherwise I'm not quite sure, if you've tried landing on Proxima and Proxima Defender to no result I'm not sure what could be wrong if the mission is active. It has nothing to do with your ship.

      Anyway just let us know what exactly is happening and we'll help you out.

    • the mission is active but do not get finished when i land on proxima ...

    • However... if you already have a pilot which is able to get buy the predator can u send it to me by mail ?
      my mail is: sl-obroaskai@freesurf.fr
      Thanks a lot

    • Well, I really think as a matter of principle that it's a lot more fulfilling (and makes you a cooler person) if you actually earn it, but maybe that's just me. However, I'm feeling too lazy to actually go dig out my pilot file, so you'll have to live with this:

      I finally figured out the problem. Apparently, the fact that the description says "take care of the pirates" means that you actually have to destroy the pirate ships that are following you around on that mission. I didn't bother to check the mission briefing itself, but I'd say it's not a bad idea to read them in general.

      Good luck with the the rest of the mission string.
