Emergency Situation

From the sound of things , I don't think he would be at the seeker mine mission. It seems like he wouldn't be getting the email if he hadn't done that yet. Then again, I don't think he should get that email if he's done the blockade run mission. All in all, I don't know where he is. *shrugs* It just doesn't seem right. Let's wait for him to answer those three questions you asked before we declare his game messed up and direct him to the saved games.

Hello EricMan64 and Shane, My objective screen is blank...I did down load the latest patch before I got into this mess. The last mission I completed was to go to Dante with the command section and spy out the sector(they needed to know what they were up against) I spyied the sector out found I needed an antenia to create a signal to get picked up. I used a maintenance fitter to get the antenia...found that we needed additional power to boost the signal. I got a field generator and out that together with the antenia...signaled and got back to home base in Santa Romia. I then came upon the message I related to you previously. I have met with Indigo...protected Mwari ships....gather the pilots together including the pilots from Kamphire....I got Franklyn Hoffer to be willing to lead the pilots. I tracked down where the Mauraders secret base was hidden and also found them shipping things to Dante. That is where I am at gentelmen...

I can't think of anything you haven't done, so unless Shane thinks of something, I'm just going to go ahead and say your game somehow hit a bug and won't give you the next mission. For the saved games on this site, just go here www.i-war2.com/downloads_6.htm It looks like one of the saved games starts you off with mission 24, so just do that one again and hopefully you'll be set.

Gathered the pilots... did you escort them to their destination?

Like EricMan, it's been some time since I've played through EoC, so it gets a little difficult to remember the missions. But I seem to recall having to get the pilots where they're needed after gathering them.

EricMan, does any of that sound familiar to you?

@Taliaman: Could you take a screen shot of the most current emails you've received and post it? I could then compare it to my old one (I've always been a 'save freak' and maintained every save I've ever made in EoC) to see what's missing.

I took a look through the Acts and think I might have figured it out... that is if you don't have the Heavy Corvette yet.

The mission which follows the 'Hide And Seek' mission (which you accomplished) requires the completion of several previous missions throughout Act II. The next mission... the one you're after... won't activate until all the previous mission have been completed.

(Trying not to give too much away): If you do not yet have a Heavy Corvette in your hanger, you've not finished assisting the MCA.

Act II mission-flow is very intricate. Mission N won't appear until Mission A, B, and D are completed and mission C and B are offered. It all gets a little confusing, especially when you arrive back to your base and find you're greeted with up to six emails at a time. It's easy to miss something.

My first suggestion is to browse back over your emails and look for something that might have been missed. Most of the time, when someone thinks their game is broken, this is the cause (I myself have done this muliple times).

If you can't find anything, then please post a screen capture of the email screen. Or email it to me (I'm at shanemaness (at) msn.com). Then I can compare it to mine and see what you're missing.

I think this is preferrable to using someone else's save game at this point. You'll never know just what cool mission you missed. It is also preferrable to reading over the Act statments... they can spoil the fun big-time if you've never played the game through before.

How about this for a simple question: Do you have any unread emails? Stuff won't go onto your objectives screen until you've read the email telling you about it. If you had another mission to do, I believe it would be on your objectives screen. As far as I can remember, the email telling you to run off to the Ritz is the only one that doesn't put something on your objectives.
