There are 4 ships in total in D3 whereas the Black Pyro is only available to owners of the Mercenary addon. In the single-player storyline you start out with the Pyro-GL, a modified version of the Pyro-GX of Descent 1/2. It performs much like the old ship. The second ship available is the Phoenix that you got to find at the end of level 6 and start to use in level 7. The third ship is the Magnum-AHT, which enters the single-player storyline in level 9 and can be used in level 10 for the first time. Once you've played the game through you can choose whatever of the 3 'standard' ships you like when starting a new game. As of yet you cannot use the Black Pyro in Retribution and the other 3 in Mercenary. Also see section [5.12].
[3.2] What about the Guidebot and it's objectives?
Contrary to it's predecessors D3 develops a storyline as you advance through the levels. In the briefing at the beginning of each level you're given a short overview on what has to be done to advance to the next level. Your mission is split into several objectives that can be reviewed in-game by using your TelCom-system (SHIFT+TAB). In addition you got to use the Guidebot which now has a far larger influence on your way of completing the game. It always knows what to do next to fulfill the current objective. If you're not sure what to do next, take a look at the first command on the GB's menu; it will show you how to go on.
[3.3] What's this 'use item' feature I heard about?
Unlike to D1/D2 you now have to use some items (keys and stuff) explicitely by pressing the 'use item'-key. When you run over a key or a data cartridge it's automatically placed into your inventory and you can cycle through these items. The default keys for 'use item' and 'cycle item' depend on the language version your're playing so check your config. Additionally you should enable the inventory listing in the HUD settings, so you can see whether the item you need is currently selected; if it's not just cycle through the items you've picked up.
[3.4] What's this mouselook feature I noticed some discussion about?
As with Quake you are now able to use the mouse to make the ship face any direction your pointing the mouse at immediately. This gives mouselookers a certain advantage since they can turn and aim faster than you could usually in Descent. As well you need less skill to control your ship which is one reason why this feature has been widely regarded as a bad move. However, it is turned off by default so you don't have to worry about it whenever you host a multiplayer game.
[3.5] What's a so-called 'X-Factor' that's been introduced with D3?
It's a feature of the advanced AI that's been developed for D3. Every robot has a certain kind of behaviour/attribute about it; eg. the Barnswallow collects powerups and puts them into it's net, the Orbot is highly inflammable.. Summed up: the AI is frightening realistic.
Countermeasures add a third weapons tier to D3. Instead of lumping the dropped weapons (e.g. proximity bombs) in with the secondary weapons, they have been grouped into their own new category. As with the 'use item'-feature (also see section [3.3]) you need to define certain keys for using and cycling countermeasures (check your config).
primary Vauss Cannon A dual-fire machine gun in the tradition of the Vulcan and Gauss Cannons. It's weaker than the Gauss, but stronger than the Vulcan. Napalm Cannon Your standard flamethrower. Clamav windows download. Burn baby, burn! Microwave Cannon Deforms the viewpoint of anything it hits, including players (cool effect!). EMD Gun Arcing electro-magnetic energy at your enemy like a homing weapon but without causing the typical alert sound. They never know what hit them. Mass Driver The perfect sniper weapon. It's telescopic range finder zooms in on your enemy to make you place the perfect shot. Calculate some reload time though. secondary Napalm Missile Ejects Napalm upon impact and burns for ten seconds while dripping down onto the ground. Good for ambushes in tunnels. Frag Missile Much like the Smart Missile, the Frag Missile releases shrapnel upon impact but the smaller shrapnels do not home in on your target. Nevertheless very useful to seal some tube when enemies follow close behind. Cyclone Missile Seperates in-flight into six smaller homing missiles from the main missile body. You'll need some distance to your target though. Impact Mortar Needs quite some timing due to it's comparatively slow travelling speed. Once released
