Sol 2 and 3 last mission

[Young Erusean Officer]

Apparently if you do well or are lucky you can keep them from dying last mission. I always thought everything was scripted

It is scripted, but it's a time-sensitive script. There's a lot of interesting script hooks in the game. Have you ever actually fought Mihaly in the Yinshi valley? like not just cheesed it, but fought him, took some hits, etc. there's a huge amount of dialog. Play the mission and take a missile hit, hit him with a strong gun salvo, Tail him in the canyon, etc. There's probably a solid 5-10minutes of unique dialog written for the encounter.


Here's a question: Can you save Brownie? Because she and Mihaly are visible on the map far, in one of the corners. Brownie is never mentioned again, even in passing, and this strikes me as the kind of concession one would do with a divergent outcome. Unfortunately you're battling the clock too, take too long and the drones shoot down your allies.

In Lighthouse, I quickily destroyed the Arsenal Bird's laser, that'll actually save allied ships below.

I think Brownie is actually scripted since that means Brownie would show up at the extraction of Mother Goose One. However, I gotta try the laser one and see if that triggers any dialog.

Pun not intended.

i already tried saving brownie. u can ignore the drones and go fly with her with mihaly will take out the escort and start dogfighting with her but he wont have a lock on thing on the hud or anything. that was on the xbox one but i doubt it would be any different on pc

You can't save Brownie. It's the first key part to antagonize Mihaly and make him leave an impression, so you can remember that when they describe his plane later on in another mission showing up. It's specifically made to shake you off because until then everything was fine and everyone was having great time flying, then you lose one of the most vocal members, who specifically calls out for your help right before dying and also is a woman when the vast majority of players are male. They know how to do a good job when it comes to scripted events.

It's not really that much dialogue in Yinshi valley, Mihaly only says a few lines.
