Ham4tw 1 Posted October 3, 2012 So I played the campaign for a little while (got upto the train part) but I've not yep come to a 'tutorial' as yet. I've gone into strategy thinking I can figure it out.. I've managed to rebuild or capture a neutral Command Center once with the 'HACK-CAPSULE' on a Walrus. I'm now on another neutral island with a destroyed command center and I can't figure out why it wont rebuild. I've driven into the Command Centre ruins and pressed 'F' to no avail. Am I missing something? Thanks http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd236/spgainham/CommandCentre.jpg (166 kB) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thygrrr 1 Posted October 3, 2012 You can't hack a destroyed center. Use a RESC, DFNS or FACT capsule instead to build a new one on top of the ruins (takes a while). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicholas 5 Posted October 3, 2012 It can take a long to to rebuild, it's a lot faster to just hack them. But there's no right or wrong way to play the game so just have fun. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ham4tw 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Cool thanks for that I would have been trying to HACK rubble for hours lol. This command center was already destroyed on a neutral island so had no option. Does the campaign mode go onto a tutorial if I continue playing it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicholas 5 Posted October 3, 2012 The whole campaign is basically about teaching you how to use various components in the game. It eases the player into the game without throwing everything at them all at once like the strategy game mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daeion 1 Posted October 3, 2012 But there's no right or wrong way to play the game so just have fun. :) I disagree. Yesterday I was so drunk that I bombed my carrier. Accidentally destroyed my own walrus with manta rockets. Turned my ship as a walrus was incoming to dock (carrier 1, walrus 0). Flew 2 of my manta's into the ground / wall. So there. That's a wrong way to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serpentras 10 Posted October 3, 2012 Haha Daeion something that reminds me what I do drunk yesterday. Undock all ground units and turn the carrier and blow up all of them in on sec. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daeion 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Haha Daeion something that reminds me what I do drunk yesterday. Undock all ground units and turn the carrier and blow up all of them in on sec. At first I thought my carrier farted but then I noticed the walrus explosion... Poor Walrus 8. He will be missed, especially the ammo box, gatling gun, MKII armor he was carrying.

Tontow 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Turned my ship as a walrus was incoming to dock (carrier 1, walrus 0). QUOTE] I have done this too. Got to love carrier ball :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ham4tw 1 Posted October 3, 2012 Just playing Carrier Command now.. and what random song choice comes up on my mp3 playlist? Top Gun theme tune, Epic. Time to launch some Manta and buzz the tower hehe :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicholas 5 Posted October 3, 2012 That's a wrong way to play. How so? Is it written somewhere that the game must be played in a specific way? You can play it that way if you wish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daeion 1 Posted October 3, 2012 How so? Is it written somewhere that the game must be played in a specific way? You can play it that way if you wish. The state my game ended up was hardly what I call playable in the end... Thank god for cheatengine and the timewarp workaround :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a_w 1 Posted October 8, 2012 How long it will take to rebuild Command Center from capsule? I've played a bit with tutorial and on one island i've tried to hack Command Center but it blowed away and tip said that I should rebuild it. So, i've got building capsule and started rebuilding process, there appeared Command center hologram and i've decided to move out because all objectives was completed, but when I've got back to that island, only ruins ramained. I've tried to build Command Center again using another production capsule with no success -- i've waited 15 minutes and nothing happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tontow 1 Posted October 8, 2012 it takes a bit to rebuild, your better off in time warp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bansheedragon 1 Posted October 8, 2012 It takes a long time to rebuild. I dont know exactly how long, but you dont have to sit and wait for it. You can move on to the next island while the Command Center is rebuilding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a_w 1 Posted October 9, 2012 You can move on to the next island while the Command Center is rebuilding. Can I see some indication of progress somewhere? Because when I've returned only ruins was visible and I was able to start another building process over the same Command center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
species1571 64 Posted October 9, 2012 I am sure not many people have gone back to the command centre to see how its progress is going, but try going to the next island and see if it goes blue while you are working on that one. It is possible that the hologram effect only appears at the time when you start it. I dont use them a lot, I prefer the hack, but every time I have used one, I just left it alone and it completed itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a_w 1 Posted October 10, 2012 I'll try again, but that time island never turned into blue, it was neutral all the time while i've captured couple more islands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redeyex 11 Posted October 10, 2012 A_W check the official missions fourm. i believe there is a bug that sometimes doesn't make the command center come back. I forgot the name of the island though. RedeyeX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can move on to the next island while the Command Center is rebuilding. Read his post, he left the island to come back to find the cc a pile of rubble..... same thing happened to me.
