If the orbital stations were what I think they were then they were just a concept that never made it into the game. There might be concept art though, but I haven't seen any. Does anyone remember what these orbital platforms were going to be?

Pretty sure I came in just around the time the Harasser was changed as I definately remeber the old sanctuary. Didn't drive the Harasser then so I don't actually remember. I'll play it safe and say Colonel.

Orbital Stations were never part of the game (beyond the music). They were intended to be an intermediate step between the HART and the Drop Pod. You'd HART to the orbital station. You would then enter a Drop Pod and be given a world map to pick your drop point. The Devs realized this was an unnecessarily step and just delayed gameplay and allowed the players to just drop pod from the HART as it is now. Orbital Platforms still have relevence however, as that's where Orbital Strikes supposedly originate from. So despite never have seen them, they must be there, and who knows? The devs may someday let you go there.

oh yeah: 5 star
