I have a few questions regarding the Graph 4 Terminus mission for Timelines called "President's End".
1. How many ships are able to be commandeered? I can only find 2 (Elite + Buzzard).
2. What's the total number of Blackboxes that can be found? I've found 10.
I ask these questions because on the scoreboard, it appears that there's more points to be gained in both these aspects. Just wondering if the wider playerbase has discovered anything else in addition to what I've found in what I think is a max run (besides kills).

Re: Timelines: President's End mission questions
1. If you follow the main storyline (fly away from the mammoth on a transport) and transfer to a buzzard, then when you try to return to the mammoth area and take possession of the elite, for some reason the game automatically ends after a short time (even if you manage to take possession of both ships; and the mission report only lists one - the one the player was on when the mission ended).
2. Among the data on crashes transmitted to us, only 7 are visible on the map. Where did you find the other 3?
3. Is it possible to fly out of the gate?

Re: Timelines: President's End mission questions
IIRC, the other 3 black boxes were collected by the allied transport before they stop. For whatever reason, their collections count as yours. You need to collect the boxes in their path before they do so since it'll count the boxes from the same location twice due to this (otherwise you'll be stuck with 7). Therefore... 10 boxes.Joann wrote: ↑Fri, 24. Jan 25, 04:09 1.

I don't think I found a 3rd ship in this mission.
With the 7.50 Engine changes, especially to that of boost, It's entirely possible to now fly through the gates, but only before you complete the last task of the mission, since Ravagers get spammed ontop of you to kill you to end the mission. Before the 7.50 changes, it wasn't possible. I certainly tried in both ships. Just always ran out of boost and HP just before I got shredded by a swarm of newly spawned Kha'ak fighters. You can use the Elite Vanguard in 7.50 to get out easily. But before you get excited about the possibility of escaping President's End, there's literally nothing on the other side of the gate and worse the Kha'ak will chase you through it to hunt you down.

Re: Timelines: President's End mission questions
Thanks for the answers! I also did some research, but I'm still playing the main version 7.10
I was also surprised when I flew out through the gates
and flew around all 5 available sectors outside of President's End in one game. It turns out that it's not difficult on Elite, if you get the hang of it. For some reason, the sectors don't have their backgrounds
Argon Prime has the Big Exchange skin, House of Light has the Abyss skin...
In my case, Kha'ak didn't fly through the gates after me, but the gates themselves somehow seem to belong to me and stand out as my property - in green

Re: Timelines: President's End mission questions
I will continue. I try to save Mammoth with a brave captain. And I will also try to move CompactDisk from the first place (615)
I wonder how he managed to achieve such a result; I have only gained half of his achievement so far.
When scanning Mercury, it says that there is only 1 pilot on it, but in reality there are many people in the cockpit. It would be great to put at least one of them in the second fighter to help you

Re: Timelines: President's End mission questions
Didn't realise getting through the gates was possible in 7.10. Every attempt I made then was met with a fiery end, even with the Elite. Tried at least 10+ times.
The top scores on this mission probably spent most of the mission hunting down as many Kha'ak as possible. That's the only additional source of points I'm aware of and probably took them a long time to do (well over an hour at least).
