0 BadSamaritan Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Right click on them. That usually shuts them both up. Then turn them off. I once knew a great man. Nothing got to him, and he always smiled. May he forever rest in peace, knowing fully well that his freinds shall remember him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mace Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Press your ESC key. That shuts him up http://diplomats-empire.com/forum/images/Mace-banner.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jahled Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 Playing the game on anything later than Windows 98 unfortunately doesn't give you the option... though i'm probably wrong. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mace Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 If you use Win XP then just run the game in Win95 compatability mode. http://diplomats-empire.com/forum/images/Mace-banner.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest JediIgor Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Don't play on Easy mode, then he doesn't give you a lecture . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 PHSYCOBOB Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 hehe.. I like that answer best, Igor. =o) I've not had any troubles on '95, '98, or XP on stopping the droids from doing thier briefing. Mind you, most of the time they try to give me the brief, I'm starting a multiplayer game, and that may be why I can skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JasonTL12 Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 i run SWR on win xp and one click anywhere in the galactic information display shuts them up. glad i haven't gotten stuck with this problem, listening to that breifing over and over would drive me mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nero Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I get the same thing. One click and he shuts up, even though the "But I've prepared an excellent briefing for you" gets annoying faster than the briefing itself does. Right click on him, hit translate counterpart and he wont say a word. Also you can hit the Post Messages silently button in the message box and R2 or that wierd ugly thing wont make a sound either. Top 5 reasons to play the Empire-1. 3PO is annoying2. 3PO is annoying3. 3PO is annoying4. 3PO is annoying5. Better ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kaja Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 6. Death Star. Just clicking/esc works for me.And I have XP. http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s152/Dave-Mastor/Cluster6.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nero Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Well technically, I like the leadership bonus much more than the ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jacen_Fel Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Skipping it worked fine for me on Windows 98 unfortunately I have Windows 2000 setup now since my reformat a few days ago and I have tried esc... right click and such and still can't skip that damn msg. Oh btw... you get it even if you play on expert of single player and if you play on multiplayer so until I can fix it I have to warn everyone about the five minute wait at the start for it to end while playing me .

0 Darth_Rob Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I agree with Nero. I love the Emperor's leadership booster. I keep him on Coruscaunt as long as possible! The Imperial officers blow the Rebels away! And I also like to create the Death Star, even though it takes forever.

0 Darth-Griffin Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 And I also like to create the Death Star, even though it takes forever.Not with a dedicated Shipyard planet Find a planet in the Outer Rim with 13+ free spaces and then stock it with spec ops and a few decent characters, then build 12 (or more) Advanced Shipyards in its orbit. Creates a DS in about 40ish days http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Nero Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 That's true, but a long time is relative. If your used to that shipyard spewing out SSDs in 3 days, 40 days is a long time to go without that shipyard.I've never really liked the Death Star. I've only used it once, and that was a mess around game. Go around, blow every Rebel planet to pieces. Maybe even a couple of your own. A planet on uprising? Blown away. It was fun, but after I destroyed too many of my planets, and the others turned to the Rebels my Death Star fell victim to a maintenance short fall. It was a sad day. Anyways...What is the Death Star really good for. In battle it's just a picture pasted on the side. It doesn't seem like it does anything but need defending.

0 Darth-Griffin Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 However if you come up against a Bulwark Battlecruiser the DS's turbo laser destroys it in one hit http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aenivae_Ikeda Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Also, the death star is great for planetery bombardments when you are trying to get rid of shields. Instead of blowing the planet up simply render it defenseless. Plus didn't you pay attention to Grand Moff Tarkin in ANH? Fear will keep the local systems in order.

0 Darth-Griffin Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Yup the DS is good at keeping pieces (or creating large amounts of them ) http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/2350/darth1b3bu.jpgVisit the forums > The Galactic Core Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Jacen_Fel Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 UPDATE: Good news guys I can now skip briefings and keep my sanity, apparently on Windows 2000 its a LEFT click directly on the droid to skip the briefing so yea . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SWR Staff - Executive Evaders99 Posted May 24, 2005 SWR Staff - Executive Share Posted May 24, 2005 The Death Star ups all loyalty in the sector that it is in. Thus if you have a lot of disloyal planets you want to max on loyalty, use the Death Star in that sector to get your diplomats a 'head start'.It really does make a difference. I never use the Death Star to blow up anything really, except starships. It is much better as the 'technological terror' that you can subdue Rebel planets with. Just keep lots and lots of fighters to protect it, or a Death Star shield.

0 Darth_Gonzo Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 for Research missions, is it better (I mean more successful) to have 2 or more characters together, or separate "I can feel your anger. It gives you focus. It gives you strength." - Nothing happens to Palpatine without him wanting it to...except getting thrown down that shaft ofcourse. Let's hear it for the Empire.

0 Nero Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Theres another thread dedicated to that in this Forum "Researc over Time or Research with Characters" I think it's called. Check that. But back to what Ikeda said. I listened to Tarkin, better than you. He said: Fear will keep the local systems in line, fear of this battlestation. In line! Not in order. I have to be right sometimes..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Aenivae_Ikeda Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Pyscho, what I said was essentially the same thing -.- "I saw the greatest minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving, hysterical, naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix." -Allen Ginnsberg, "Howl" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MrPhildevil Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I never use the Death Star to blow up anything really, except starships. It is much better as the 'technological terror' that you can subdue Rebel planets with. Just keep lots and lots of fighters to protect it, or a Death Star shield. I always use the DS Shield because I don't know how many fighters I'd need to achieve that. So, does anyone know the minimum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
