MISSION 04
ACT 1, MISSION 04
Fighter squadron: 170th Fighting Navajas
Description: Laporte is selected for a random in-flight psychological evaluation.
Background
You have been selected to undergo a routine in-flight psychological evaluation from the PsyOps of First Fleet. This evaluation is carried out at random on pilots across the fleet.
As you patrol a series of waypoints near Earth, your sole wingman, Lieutenant Vicmouth, will ask you a few questions and monitor your neural readings from your flight suit.
Walkthrough
This mission is a playable cutscene.
Notes
- Laporte's encounter with Ken is a reference to parts of the unrelated FreeSpace 2 campaign Transcend, where the player meets the main antagonist, the Transcendent, in a similar fashion on a few occasions.
- Coincidentally, Laporte filed a request for a personal report on her own health three days before this mission. The report returned a list of fairly common battle fatigue symptoms experienced by not just her, but by most other regular pilots, such as physical strain, hyperalertness, ethical conflict and fatigue. However, the final symptom that the report returns makes mention of memory loss and "fugue" flight, the latter being a symptom whereby the subject performs actions while conscious, but is unable to remember doing them after recovering from battle fatigue.
- The fifth reading on Laporte's flight suit, NGRI, is explained by Vicmouth as being "a diagnostic". A small number of players who are well-learned on what has been established in Blue Planet canon have interpreted this reading to represent Laporte's Nagari sensitivity.
- Ken's allegiance is ambiguous. While he sounds Vishnan in nature, he appears to exhibit the Shivan philosophy of destruction.
