Atomic Mitten Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 ::)Can anyone help a Newbie, I have only been playing EMP for about five days, I managed to get through the single player games in House Artreides and killed the Emp worm on my first attempt, but now I'm stuck trying to kill the E.Worm in House Harkonnen.No matter what I do I get swamped by the Guild.Also after a few minutes the game goes into slow motionI have an Nvidia geforce mx440 agp graphics card onWindows XP Pro, anyone else have the same problem ?A.M.

rigel6669 Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 The last mission with the emperor worm requires a lot from your computer, the harddisc starts spinning which is slowing down the gameplay ....Regarding the subject "how to beat the emperor worm", have a look in the emperor strategy board.There are severals threads which explain what to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 Just bring your starting forces to attack the E.worm and use your projector to clone units to add to your forces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wraith126 Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 emp worm is easy :Pgo straight for a devo drop, fly it round the bottom edge of the map.if ur fast enuf u will just blow emp worm b4 they blow ur base.this can be done with atreides (minos, apcs with kindjal)it is really hard for ordos but i did it with a kobra and a few mortars.u can also put fedyakin inside an apc and fly it in for ordos and atreides.

Atomic Mitten Posted August 19, 2003 Author Share Posted August 19, 2003 Sorry for not replying earlier but I've been trying to find out why my damn PC keeps crashing !I found the cause !The heatsink on my PCU was almost completely melted so I cleaned her up at repasted it, now my CPU temp is back down to 30 Grad.It seems to be faster now than before ???Well thanks for your help all!A.M. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_ghola Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Most people give the same strat, dev drop on emperor worm, or project tanks in front of emperor worm, thats a waste of time, why play the whole campaign just to beat it so simply in the end? Your main concern is defense, that where you projector comes in handy, i usualy build a wall, blocking the back entrance to my base so the AI walks into in the main entrance which gives you less to worry about, work from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Attack is defense.One of my friends(not me, I suck!)killed the emperor worm in the hard champaign by clearing the whole map up within 30 minutes! Even though he had only done it with Hark, I'm still impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 WTF?What do you mean clear the whole map up?Stop lying,henry.You have lied too many times already. >:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Tell me why it is impossible to clear the whole map lowzeewee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowzeewee Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I thought after about 15 minutes,the emperor worm will wake up? :O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken124578 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Nope, the timer will only start when you're attacking/coming close to the guild mega cannon or the Emperor Worm. (i might be wrong about the coming close thing though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_ghola Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Anything is possible, i destroyed every building on hard before i killed the emperor worm, and its not so hard, the only thing thats really annoying are those turrets, so many turrets..

lowzeewee Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Oh I got it wrong.Sorry Henry.But you are still a liar based on the AI-ignore-AI editing thingy. :PNormally you would just want to watch the cinematic right?The campaigns are all about destroying the enemy so no mattr whether you are killing a whore or the emperor worm,its the same thing. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Mitten Posted August 25, 2003 Author Share Posted August 25, 2003 Can I ask a question ?I'm a bit confused, what is the point of the Emperor Worm game in all three houses, it seems the only way to get past this last stage of the game is to kill the worm, but it doesn't seem possible to play the game and take a bit of time to enjoy it.I am aware that there is a 15 minute time limit to kill the worm but I think it's a shame that one has to do it so quickly !Am I missing something here or is that just Empbd.A.M. ???

ken124578 Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 You can play that mission as long as you want, though, getting close to the guild megacannon/emperor worm will trigger the timer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowzeewee Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 *Ignores playerap's reply*If you are using atr or ord,then replicate.If you are using hark,I recommend using adv carryalls to ferry yr devastators there and move yr proj tank there and then do what you are expected to do.

Duncan_ghola Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 I dont get it, against AI you have the opportunity to be creative and use strats you cant against a real player, why not enjoy the level alittle? i found it more amusing than the clip at the end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Mitten Posted August 26, 2003 Author Share Posted August 26, 2003 Sorry I must have not made myself clear as to what I meant.I've completed the Emp worm mission in all three houses but I was just wondering if it's possible to make the game last longer than three minutes? lolA.M.P.s. I wouldn't have managed it without your help !Thanks to you guys for all your help ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
