How do you suppose you could get the Tie Bomber? I say we all throw in suggestions and work together to try to get it if in fact it is a get-able ship.

Interesting though that it is the ONLY ship that has a reflection in the Imperial Hangar.

I'd say it's something to do with the hidden tie bomber in PotM.

There's a hidden Tie Bomber in Prisons Of The Maw? The prisoners get killed so fast that I have no time to fly around the level at my own leisure.

i'd just like to say that super sonic ultra has been emailing factor 5 for some clarification for quite a while...

but no success...

I would say we exclude sending letters as the main part our plan to find it. Just think about it: Why would they tell one person the code to get the Tie Bomber if there are probably hundreds of other people that want to know the code too?

Anyways, is there really a hidden Tie Bomber on Prisons OTM?

yes, it is in the beginning part when you must use the ion cannons...read more about this in the codes thread...sadly factor 5 has not responded to the letter below (yet!)

quote

I was playing Rogue Leader, and I was on the "Prisons of the Maw" level. I discovered a floating TIE Bomber, a floating TIE Interceptor, and two floating TIE Interceptors stuck together. I found these below and a little distance from the force field in the beginning of the level. They weren't doing anything, so I fired my ion cannon enough times that the bomber began to fire missles at me, though it didn't move. I also fired it at the three Interceptors, but they too only fired at me and didn't move. Is the bomber related to the one hangeing in the Imperial hanger or is there any signifigance to the fighters and bomber being there or can it or the fighters be unlocked in this or any other level and how. I have a feeling I have stumbled upon a secret, can you tell me why these objects are there and what I am supposed to do with them? Please REPLY! PLEASE?!
P.S.If I was not thorough enough explaining where I found what, please tell me and I will explain it better.

I say we write Factor 5 but re-word it. First of all, we should write it as if we are applying to a job. "Hello,
I have recently bought your Gamecube game Rogue Leader. I would just like to say that it is an excellent game. I did find one curious thing though. In one of the game levels, Prisons Of The Maw to be exact, there is a stationary TIE Bomber in the first part. Does this have any significance or is it just an 'easter egg'?"

See what we would do is not plead and ask for the code, we should present it as, HMM? Well that is interesting. I think I should ask if it has any significance.

I can write a letter if you'd like. Just tell me where to send it to.

None of the guides helped. I looked all over the level. Could you help me out with some more detailed instructions. I need to have a fixed point in which to aim my craft at.

You have to go vertically down until you hear the words "I'm picking up something strange, it might be imperial", then come up and point at the northwest side of the black hole thing. Use your targetting sensor to find it.

it is hard to see, so when you're using the targeting comp, you will have to look for a blinking object which will stop blinking once you are close enough...

Yeah I saw them. Thanks to the auto-level though it is hard to stay aligned with them. I'll just turn it off. Anyways, I was thinking if you bombed them it might do something because it would be really hard to bomb. I am also listening to all of the commentaries for each level.

Eh, what the hell? The TIE bomber sucks!

Eh, what the hell? The TIE bomber sucks!

Why are there so many people that say it sucks? It has excellent shields, a great design, probably an awesome cockpit, missiles AND bombs, and laser cannons. It may not be as fast as most starfighters but it would be cool to have. Tie Bombers rock! I should know since I fly them.

So let me get this straight you can get the tie bomber how? and how you get those pics under your name and the little sentence to?
