(LGC) Derelict ship how to kill the core ?

[zedery]

Ive found the core after doing all the derelict ship "Dungeon" but i can't shoot the plate or the alien materials that surrunds it, how do you kill the core ?

[THANKS OBAMA]

I'm really new so I'm just tossing a guess out here, slap a ♥♥♥♥ ton of bombs onto the panel that's in your way if you want to brute force it, otherwise there should be a way to get to it since the dungeons I've done so far had methods to do so.

Once I learned about the shortcut into the Abandoned Mines if you have 3 explosives, I've just been blasting my way in and bumrushing the core.

I have Tried to damage it with the minigun, and apparently when you look back with your salvager, it doesnt do any damage at all, its still 100% intact

Some Poi's have a admin core because its important to the story.

by destroying that core you would ruin the story game play, thats why the admin cored it.

Yes that ship now has an admin core. You can't kill it.

@Scooby, i will try with explosive, but the plate behind the core was still 100% not damaged even if being it by 250 bullets, me and my brother have looked everywhere to see if we have miss a "switch" somewhere, didnt find anything, Thanks for your help

The derelict ship in orbit around the starter planet is directly connected to the Chapter 5 of the story missions and currently has an admin core in it (it did not in previous versions).

Exploseives etc won't work on it.

There's a switch nearby that will destroy it (the switch I believe is next to the three alien figures standing below it, near the teleporter), designed so that you have to play through the dungeon in order to destroy it, rather than just destroying it by shooting through the block behind it from the outside.

That said, I'm not sure if the switch to destroy it will work if you're not in the mission, you'll have to test that out. Either way, destroying it will break that mission if you haven't done it yet, so I highly recommend you activate chapter 5 and play through the checkpoints. If you've already cleared out the enemies it should just be a matter of flying through a bunch of chekcpoints (first elsewhere, then there on the derelict ship).

When finishing the mission (SP) i did not even have to use any switch and as far as i can tell the core was destroyed automatically just after reaching the end of the mission.
And that was a problem for me because it was destroyed very fast (just a few seconds) after the last message, disabling the teleporter on the way
It is worth searching the ship after the core destruction for hidden alien containers

That's absolutely possible, I've only played through it in A12 and thought it triggered when I flipped the switch, but it's possible that it was already on some kind of timer for being in the last room/completing the mission.
To your second point, absolutely. Scrap everything, look everywhere. There's a whole floor of the base that's unreachable through the normal path, and treasure in all sorts of hard to reach places.
