Federation Cruiser Unlock

Postby billsayswow » Sun Sep 16, 2012 1:13 am

How do you unlock the Federation Cruiser? The way I interpreted it was that if you beat the Rebel Flagship ("the boss"), then it should unlock. I beat all three stages of it and won the game, score entered in the High Score list and everything, and it didn't unlock. Do you have to win on Normal difficulty to get it? I was playing on easy.

There's no difficulty requirement. It should already be unlocked...maybe a screenshot of your ship selection list?

Damn. Tough luck. Hope the devs can get to the bottom of this.

In the meanwhile, if you really don't want to beat the game again to see the Federeation Cruiser, you might want to try using a binary editor and edit the profile file yourself. (Back up first!)

A simple guide.

I ran into this bug as well but was unlocked after beating it a second time.

Ugh, I ran into this problem 15 minutes ago... when I beat the boss the same thing happened. The cruiser wasn't unlocked and my Kestrel was on Victory status... but it was sort of a tie at the end... my ship and the Rebel Ship both blew up, though his blew up first by 5 seconds, so I don't think it mattered. Well, I'll try to beat the game again... gg though
