Difficulty for Story Missions

[Tcko]

Just a little bit of info and advice, not everyone who plays this game is a hardcore gamer...some of us are older and don't have the dexterity to be able to do some of the missions you have on here...but our money is worth just as much as theirs is. What happens when someone gets to a spot in the game and they cant complete it?
The give up on the game then leave that's what. Then that is a customer you have lost who probably spent maybe 30 usd a month or more to play the game...such as yours truly.
I also dont think that you have taken into account that some of us even have older machines....(heaven forbid)
such as I do... I have tried one particular mission that is impossible for me to complete and you also made it so a team couldn't do it either...was this game made to make any money?
I have tried different ships...different AB's....and there is no way with the time allowance you have on that mission that I could ever do it. The story mission is ....Help Fighters on Baumar in the Mizar starsystem.
I have tried many many times and then I left for a few days, and to be honest I'm about ready to call it quits in this game.
When a game becomes torture instead of fun it's time to go don't you think?
Anyway whether I go or stay doesn't matter but this is for the owners and developers, if you made this game to make money I think you really need to rethink the difficulty level of this game.
Have a nice day,
Tcko

P.S. I even know of a 19 year old who quit because of the difficulty level.

Hi there Tcko I can see what your saying and your right some missions are big sticking points in terms of difficulty add to that a slower older computer and you have a big problem. Sadly there a lot of things that need fixing in this game, major things that are more fundamental than story missions. The particular mission you highlighted is possible to solo but as you said no matter what you do you can't complete the mission within the time limit. My solaria account is still in gemini atm but if your still paying when I reach helpfighters I might be able to help you get through.

Help Fighters, use the top ab and top collector from Baumar, or rares if you have managed to get them.

Then restart your thinking ways, and start a training session. Train to fly everywhere in the maze with ab, train it till you manage to fly without getting stuck in the walls, train the routes to each outpost so you know them by heart. (From Jogan, the center to all 4 outposts.)

Use your ab when it is ready in the mission, train it that way, you can use an own timer if you got one to see progress.
This will not only teach you to do the mission, but it will teach you to fly with ab on hard routes, it will teach you the skill to play.
It is not so said everyone is hardcore players, but everyone can be skillful players, there is a big difference.
You don't learn that skill by killing most mantis or other players, you become one when you learn the small secrets of this game, there the age doesn't matter.

I for me think that elder players has more patience to learn the skill than the younger ones, they are to hurry to stop and learn, but elder players, they think and reflect more over their doings.

What you need is to be calm, put on a relaxing music maybe, and start training to fly in a maze with speed.
In the time when I completed Baumar, we had no Gravitons, now the players use them for everything, all turned so much easier.

I know many pilots and their distress with this mission, don't give up even if you have to try to do it 15-20 times, that is very normal, more than you think with this missions, and some others on Baumar.
Ask for help if you see it's not working.

I hope this helped you some, and I wish you the best luck with your mission and future missions.
Just don't give up, many of us been there where you now, and we have come far.
