No Missions are NOT broken.. For those having issues.....

[Malakie]

I have replied to some posts already and decided I would make this post because too many people are posting saying missions are broken when in reality, they are not.

Every mission post I replied to was not broken.. I have done each of them multiple times.

The problem is not the mission, it is players not listening/reading the text nor paying attention to the details of what they tell you clearly to do.

For example, after game start for Terran Cadet and you kill the two Xenon, it tells you clearly to go make busy for a while and you will be contacted.. So? go make busy.. visit a couple stations, lay some SATS, fly around a bit and guess what? Not so long and a message will arrive with more details on the missions.

Or another one.. the one you have to stop a transport from running through a mine field to go at a station.. You are told CLEARLY to target ONLY the engines, not the ship.. And then destroy the engines ONLY. You do that using the target component command NOT by targeting the ship as a whole.. You may need to check your keymaps to see what you have that command set up for, but you have to use that command, target each engine ONLY and fire ONLY on each engine until it blows up. Works perfectly every time.

So the point is, listen to the voice, read the text, read the briefing and pay attention to what they are saying and telling you to do.. I started a brand new campaign today and have well along into the Terran Cadet campaign without one single problem... the same as I have done for some months now doing this over and over and over in testing.

not a bug and more of an oversight: if you get a mission where you get paid well over 200k for destroying laser towers, its 100% randomly dropped ones when a hostile passed a station. and as soon as you enter the area, the station will start shooting them down. instantly failing the mission every time.

Right after laying satellites it tells me to make busy. Mission marker leads me to Sol where they do their security thing and I go boom.

The mission in asteroid belt to follow to a station, attack xenos then the miner engines. Lost my ship and now floating in space.

Lots of bugs unless you do each mission exactly without any form of deviation. 99% of gamers are not capable of that :-p

I started a game with an open universe, began the humans' storyline, repelled an attack on the base, met the mission leader, and... She said, "Not so fast, go wander around, we'll contact you ourselves." I've been wandering for so long now that I even built my own station, but she still hasn't contacted me.

Thread is so old, F5 its broken itself

However F5 since i would like to vent
* Fly to ship, Destroy F5 the mines. mines 20Km away, fly in that direction, on half way "Fly to ship" F5 and the mines Disappear
* Rescued a ship. Delivered it, F5 cant transfer ship.
* Kill Criminal F5 Traffic. No traffic at all at that F5 station (tried 5 minutes)

And i do not even start with the F5 Autopiloit who allways fly in the center of minefields F5

You need to progress the PHQ mission and get Dal Busta to join you then you can go back to her and talk again.
