Thread: Imperial tier 3 mission bugged or is it just me?

I did that part a couple of months ago with little difficulty (the meeting the A-wing part....). However, the entire Storm Squad sequence really needs to be looked at. I'm 3,3,2,2 and my third mission has been frustrating the life out of me. Its nearly impossible, and thats just the first of the hard missions. I hear the rest isn't any better.... I wouldn't doubt that it isbugged, or something.
Storm Squadron will really make you a much better pilot, guaranteed. Its either that, or they make you quit the squadron lol.
I can say for a fact that every mission that SS has is soloable...caused I soloed them all lol.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not some ace pilot that's mastered every squadron in the game, this is my first JTLS squadron, and my first ace (just got it today...btw the ace mission is a joke, the corvette is cake, did it w/out bomberstrike, so are the fighter screens and the gunboats).
Today I had some RSF guy ask me for help (just made Ace today btw...lol the corvette is a joke, didn't even bother using bomberstrike). I happily helped of course.
But you know what he needed help with?
Against 8 Tier-3 fighters...the slow, med-heavy fighters no less.
I'm not making fun of the guy btw, I'm just using this as an example...but I do think because I was subject to a much harder set of missions, that when I was a Tier 3 pilot, I all but laughed at a couple waves of Tier-3 A Wings, and routinely mixed it up with Tier 4 spawns...they were much more of a pain than the med-heavy sitting ducks.
Just stick with it...if you die, figure out why you died and improve on that.
A friend of mine is currently Imperial pilot 3222 (joined the squad in Bestine when she started) and now she has a mission where she has to jump to Endor and inspect a rebel adv. recon fighter. Once that is done she docks with it and right after a few rebel ships jump in and ambushed her. Okay, we fought them off and the mission says to go to another wp and inspect another adv. recon fighter. However, there is no such craft at the given wp or anywhere near it, B,X, and Ywings spawn there but no Awings (and that ship is an Awing usually).
Anyone else experienced that? We already aborted and tried again without success.
Bugged or not?
. Im still stuck on this mission also but its just because I get killed before I reach the shuttle to off load the data...anyways hope this helps.

You need to dock with a freighter, then get to a shuttle and dock with it to exchange the data, after that slowly follow the waypoints to get to the last part where you fight a "battle" a friend and I did this about a month ago, and recently helped several people who returned to the game do it, so it does work.
However an escort mission where you have to destroy 4 waves of fighters while escorting a shuttle in the next batch is bugged, no matter how many waves you destroy it fails, according to some tickets I sent in if you don't stay "close" to the shuttle a wave of fighters may not spawn and so the mission will fail regardless sitting 50 meters off the shuttle through the mission doesn't help either so about 6 of us are slowly getting capped on xp with 3-3-2-2 since we can't pass this mission. Here's hoping they answer my fifth ticket by day 4.
I did this solo last week (the second tier 3 mission). I found that I was destroying the A wing rather than docking with it. It keeps spawning though so hang around til it reappears. The mission is definitely not bugged.
As for the third tier 3 mission I don't believe it is bugged. The fighters spawn in waves of 4 and you have to completely destroy the four ships before the next lot spawn. You have to generate the message 'all fighters destroyed' four times to complete the mission so you have to be quick.
Added to that you cant stray too far from the shuttle.
