  1. Well, the best thing to find out would be to play a 2nd time and then go for yes. Many of us have been through that "what would of happened if I selected the other option?" But eventually found out :blink:. Just like to note that Aftershock is based on accepting this offer.

    Having actually searched for this in the plot and storyline forum (!!) i now know what happens. Sorry for not reading up first!

  2. Hey, i finally got to the reticulan offer last night, but i hadn't saved for ages so i had to decide once and for all then and there. Obviously i picked NO! but i was just wondering what happens if you click yes, when asked?
  3. The russian mission is HARD. No need to be ashamed.

    No shame for me!! i completed "area 52" last night. 6 deaths, but at least I (malcolm) survived!! I have also rescued the two old greys so i must be nearly finished now, just a matter of time!!

     

    Combo MOD, here i come!

  4. Looking good guys - well done. However i must resist from downloading this mod just yet as i still haven't finished the game. ON EASY! shocking, I know, but i just cannot do the russian base mission. stupid mind control... :(
  5. If using the vfstool for savegames, remember to use the md5 option after repacking. The game won't load games whose md5 check doesn't come out right.

    Sorry, i'm a novice i just about understood editing the text files - what is that md5 option? You don't have to explain it here just point me in the right direction for info. Ta.

  6. i have made 3 new pistol models....and am thinking of adding something else for the new realease..any ideas?

    How about non-movable weapons turrets for base defense?

     

    You could have them by the access lifts, and make 'em super powerful? Thats what i would do if i had to defend a base.

  7. I'll set the scene. It's April 15th, i have developed all technHology and the time has come for me to get the archives from area 51 (I waited till my troops all had sun armour).

     

    I load up my squad: 2 H&K CAWS, 4 laser rifles and 1 SuperStriker.

     

    Getting in to the base is the "easy" part, however i end up using 4 of my medikits before i get to the entrance.

     

    Inside, my boys and girls are tired, injured and scared. John Kane (Malcolm) turns and says "Wait here, i'll go..."

     

    He runs towards the archive room, equiped with his CAW, I am trying to get him there round the aliens, in and out quick as i can, however he is ambushed as he gets into the long corridor. Back to the wall he manages to take out 5 reticulans before he is so injured he has to meet up witht he squad for healing. All healed up and ready to go he heads back to the ambush location.

     

    The greys have regrouped and are ready. John lobs two 'nades down the corridor and waits. 2 more greys meet a timely end, but John's injuries are severe. He heads back to the entrance and the rest of the squad go on mop-up.

     

    They only make it to the fighting location where 4 more greys are waiting. Ben Redgewell runs on into the archive room while the others are being cut down. Ben is doing ok, avoiding ret's and gets the PC and runs back as fast as he can go, "WHY DIDN'T THEY SAVE THE FILES ON A LAPTOP??" he puffs.

     

    He walks back into the corridor to discover the alien scum feasting on his friends, he drops the PC and unleashes with an acid grenade and his CAW. He takes out the 3 remaining greys before running out of ammo.

     

    Grabbing the PC he legs it back towards the entrance where John is waiting, but his strength is ebbing away and he comes across one last ret' on the way. He makes it past the ret' but is shot callously in the back, leaving the rest of the job to John.

     

    Heavily injured, but spurred on as all his best friends have been killed, John heads to the last reported location of Ben. Once there he throws a smoke grenade, grabs the PC and high-tails it out of there.

     

    So 18 greys and 1 PC later, the Project Dreamland files have been liberated, and the research continues.

     

    A short memorial service was held to commerate the heroic actions of:

     

    Sgt Benjamin "The Fingers" Redgewell

    Cpl Joanna "Crazy Bird" Hackman

    Cpl Angela "F**k off" Slater

    Pvt Nathan "Big Daddy" Humphries

    Pvt Ian "Quick Hands" Boxall

    Pvt Frank "Blinky Blink" Lucas

     

    And we will never forget...
