Title: Gameplay Questions
Post by: OHHDEAR on January 15, 2003, 03:12:30 am
First, the Zoq Fot Pik clued me in to a planet with some sort of door on it that seemed  to be related to the Ur-Quan, but my lander crew have no clue how to work it. Give me a VAGUE hint as to who to talk to to get this open, please

Second, the Ur-Quan/Kohr-Ah fight is fake. They do not fight each other, they just kill me and me alone.

It is pretty cool to see other people living through today what I went through ten years ago..

Suffice it to say, this game has been around for ten years now, so the walkthroughs have been around for at least 9 years :P  There's a few of them over at The Pages of Now & Forever (http://www.classicgaming.com/starcontrol/files/sc2.shtml), go forth get informed!

Careful asking for vague hints here.  Many people don't seem to know what that means.  I've seen plenty of people just blurt out the answers.

And now the hint: Keep track of this planet.  When you need it, you'll know, so don't worry about it for now.  You asked who to talk to but that might be a bigger hint than you realize.

And second, this game doesn't really have a way of showing the Ur-Quan and Korh-Ah battle eachother.

LOL, that damn door gave me so much trouble!  And this was with the collecters CD that came out a few years ago with SCIII, with the damn guide on the CD.  Took me a lot will power not too look at the guide though.  

As for the Kohr-Ah/Ur-Quan battle, I believe deep in their mutual space (if you can get there) there are some systems that have both Marauders and Dreadnuaghts duking it out.  I don't know if this is a real memory or a Barque's Cream Soda induced one ;).

I've never seen the two Ur-Quan races duking it out; but, with the exception of the ZFP's homeworld, I only visited about six or seven systems in Ur-Quan territory each game. (And the same ones, too.)

Aren't there Ur-Quan and Kohr-Ah fighting around the Sa-Matra?

No, that's sacred territory. They're its guards.

Yes, I noticed this conspiracy too. I suspect they're all staging this giant farce of a war just for the sake of entertainment by forcing you to run around the galaxy performing tasks they've made up. I imagine that the Chmmr/Chenjesu are in on it, and they conspired with the Ur-Quan from the start to incorporate the human race in some sort of bizarre galactic 'Truman Show'. The so called "Precursor ship" you're piloting probably has a billion hidden cameras inside it.

That kinda reminds me of that Southpark episode a few weeks ago. The one where they found out Aliens planted the world with all different races and were making a reality show called "Earth." Funny concept, but could of been better.
