Ship Delivery Missions and general guidance

Post by jturp »

Evening, all

I'm wondering why in all of the missions I've taken on where I am build and deliver a ship that they always refuse to accept it? The brief does say "We have decided upon a ship with a particular spec" however that spec is never given to me so I have no idea what, exactly they are looking for.. and also, why is it that the reward for the mission is always less than the cost of building the ship??

As for other general guidance, it would appear that the faction missions are often lacking in information needed to actually complete them. In particular, I am currently on a mission to "Scan: Person holding Decryption Module", and I've been flying around for three days now scanning every ship I can think of and none of them have the item. What am I missing??

The mission system could really use some TLC to make it more intuitive for the player.

Hmm the argon mission where you have to obtain a fleet 1x colossus 1x behemoth and 3x Cerbertus with Piercer mods. It also specifies which is the necessary equipment to have installed for the mission.

Not really worth the rewards though i got 21 million + a magnetar with decent crew and 2000 nividium. Cost me about 40 million to buy the ships.

in the more detailed mission breifing it specifies what ship you need to provide. The vanguards are different from the sentinels
Just... another... bug.

Rule #1 for mission: Save before accepting that mission to ensure you can go back to a game-play without that mission.
Some missions, those "scan"-missions included, might be buggy. Or the task might be too specific to be fulfilled in a particular sector.

Finally: Some of the "Deliver a ship"-missions cannot be completed without boarding a specified ship.
