« on: March 09, 2007, 05:54:53 pm »
Heres my problem in the game, When i go out to the hyperspace, a black hole captures me always and i spawn somewhere, where a slylandro kills me. Is there a way to stop this circle?

It's not a black hole. It's a pocket of normal space surrounding a Slylandro probe.

Learn how to destroy the probes or get really fast.

It's worth mentioning that you should take the time to examine Earth and the starbase orbiting it, if you haven't done so already, before heading out into Hyperspace. Doing so will significantly reduce the number of probes you encounter, at least for a while, and give you some time to improve your combat capabilities.

The black holes are alien space ships. When you encounter an alien ship, you're sucked into normal space. Some are friendly, some are not.

Yes. I think you should check the spoiler-free section of the Ultronomicon.

Problem was covered well, I'll just add that you can improve your skills against the Slylandro probe in the melee game.

I like to think you killed a man. It's the romantic in me.
