Forum Overview :: Mischief Maker's Maker's Mark :: More Robot and Freespace 2

[quote name="Mischief Maker"]2 more things about the Robot suit: Afterburner power regenerates faster in robot mode. The act of transforming does not drain any rage. Instead of easing back on the throttle to turn an face an enemy fighter, tranform to robot, use autoaim to turn and get them in your sights faster, then change back to ship to pursue. [quote name="WITTGENSTEIN"]And honestly when the fuck did wingmen in Freespace 2 ever accomplish anything independently except provide distractions while you got all the objectives accomplished? I think it's more like Freespace 2 than you give it credit for. Certainly shooting down torpedoes aiming for friendly capital ships gave me that memory.[/quote] As the game goes on and your pilot goes up in rank, you start getting the responsibility to give your wingmates (and eventually multiple wings) orders during a mission, including "engage the enemy." Their default state is holding formation, where their job is to provide distractions while you get all the objectives accomplished.[/quote]
