|2C: MINING |
.========================.
Mining is one of the ways to make Credits, albeit quite slow. Many people seem at lost about how to mine stuff, albeit the gloriously big notice/instructions that is given in the first mission in the game.
Cut and paste game instructions:-
In mineable zones, shoot the small floating asteroids to find valuable commodities
Back to me. Well, it really does explain fully on what to do. Let me elaborate on it just in case you didn't understand fully. First, you must be in a mineable zone. On your NAV map (F6), click on Mineable Zones Map to see where you can mine.
Go to one of the mineable zone, and you'll see small floating asteroids floating around. If you target it with your mouse, you'll see a target/shoot cirle (the white revolving one), meaning that you can shoot at it. Well, shoot at it. Most of the time nothing will come out of it, but sometimes a commodity will come out of it. Tractor it in (by pressing B). It's quite a slow job, and the odds of the the asteroids containing commodity varies from area to area. Some field are rich, while some are almost bare.
Happy mining!

When you've control of your character, you'll be given objectives to do. Just follow the objectives and enter the Bar to look for a Job. The bartender will points you to Jun'ko Zane, a LSF (Liberty Security Force) agent. Well, you're in luck, as she does needs a someone to do a job for her. You don't have a ship, so she offers you one. Just go meet her at the Equipment Dealer. Go there.
When you get there, you'll see a Starflier coming in. That is your ship, that is, if you accept the job.
================================================
MISSION
================================================
OBJECTIVE:
Escort a convoy of food and medical supplies from Fort Bush to the mining colony of Planet Pittsburgh. The mission's commanding officer, Michael King, is waiting to rendezvous in space near the Manhattan docking ring.
DIFFICULTY:
LSF Intel has classified this mission as low-risk. Pirate attacks are considered possible.
REWARD:
2000 credits
================================================
Accept it as that the only thing you can do now. Sure, you can decline, but what can a freelancer do without a ship? Especially a Level 0 pilot. Anyway, accept it and the next step do to is Launch to Space.
King will meet you in space, and will brief you on the mission. As King was explaining, the Donau will show up. It won't be there long! A group of ships appear and totally obliterate it. There were nothing anybody can do to save it, but we can avenge it.
----------------------------
Mission 01: Avenge the Donau
New Objective:
Destroy the Hostile Ships.
----------------------------
If Freelancer had a tutorial mission, this'll be it. Lots of allies, and the enemy doesn't even target you. Just get yourself familiar with the controls and back up your allies, and if you're lucky, get a kill or 2.
When you see your first loot, an Info window will show up, teaching you how to tractor it in (by pressing the B button, in default). After you've finish off all the enemy ships, it's time to continue your mission.
----------------------------
Mission 01: Join the Convoy
New Objective:
Fly to Waypoint
Fly toward the Waypoint (purple diamond), which marks the entrance to the
Trade Lane to Fort Bush. Use W to accelerate and shift-W to cruise.
Dock with the Trade Lane
Click on any part of the Trade Lane ring in space. Then click the DOCK maneuver icon in the Neural Net at the top of your screen.
Fly to the Transport USV Brandt
Destroy All the Criminal Ships
Re-enter Formation with the USV Brandt
Dock with Planet Pittsburgh
Select the planet's docking ring. Then click the DOCK maneuver at the top of your screen. The waypoint (purple diamond) is currently marking the docking ring.
----------------------------
Tutorial on Waypoint, cruising, trade lance docking and last of all, formation.
When you get to the Transport USV Brandt, enter formation with it. You'll enter
a Trade Lane automatically, and while on your way to Pittsburg, it is suddenly disrupted.
You are being attacked by Liberty Rogue ships! It is they who damage the Trade
Lane ring, and disrupted the your journey. With the help of King, destroy them all. Is is not that hard. When the first group is done with, another group shall appear, but it seems by now the Trade Lane the Trade Lane has been repaired. As King says, do not engage them.
All you need to now is re-enter formation with the USV Brandt. It'll enter the
Trade Lane and you'll follow it in, leaving behind the Rogue ships. You'll soon arrive near Planet Pittsburg. It seems it has been King's plan all along to get the Rogues to attack. He even paid USV Brandt to serve as bait!
Anyway, your mission is done, dock with Planet Pittsburgh.
----------------------------
Mission Result: Success
You have advanced to Level 1
----------------------------
Some explanation by King later, and he'll tell you to meet him in space. He got another job for you. Before doing that, you might want to get another gun and/or upgrade the old ones. Also, if you got salvaged some goods earlier, might as well sell them for some much needed Credits. BTW, this mission, you'll accept it automatically.
================================================
MISSION

OBJECTIVE:
It is believed that the Liberty Rogue attack on the transports was staged from a base somewhere in the Pittsburgh debris field. Assist King in locating the criminals' base and eliminating the threat.

A wing of Fighters will join you and King on the hunt. Just enter formation with
Epsilon 1. Suddenly, you'll hear a distress call from the XT-19 Prison Ship. It is under attack and it needs help.

King gets all excited, as this may be the info he needed. Beta 4 might have stumbled too close to the Rogue Base, causing the attack on him. Now we know where to search.
Beta 4 will gives you the location where it was attacked, so head there! On your way, you will be attacked by Rogue ships. Send them to the scrap yard. Once that minor distraction is done with, continue on to the waypoint, accompanied by
King and Alpha Wing.
You'll soon see the Rogue Base. Get a wee bit near it and King shall give you a new objective. The base is too well armored for you and he to destroy, so all you can do is soften the defenses a bit in lieu with waiting for arrival of the
Delta Wing and their torpedo run. Destroy the 2 Weapon Platforms!
It is recommended to kill some enemy ships first before hitting on the Weapon
Platform. Once the Platforms are down, well, whaddya know, Delta Wing will arrive! After their Torpedo run, the base shall be no more. Finish up the remaining ships, and then head back to Planet Pittsburgh.
