There is a solution, play offline, you will be happy.
As this thread has pretty much turned into the Solo v Open yawnfest, isn't it time it was merged with it?

If you have played the original Elite, you must have noticed that there were no other players, just AI.
Guess what: Elite Dangerous also has AI. You know what this AI is doing? Among others interdicting and attacking traders. Playing solo is not the risk-less safe haven for cargo runners as you seem to believe. Is that really so hard to understand?
Am I the only one to spot the irony here?
You say "Stop trying to cater for everyone", but then go on to explain why the should cater to you and your opinions. Like you speak for the entire player base or something.....
That wasnt a Quick Post. I await with baited breath a response from the Devs.
One day there will be a game where hordes of priates can try to feast on hordes of real player traders. And that game will be designed to force that type of gameplay.
This game is however on a different track.
My argument with OP is to say for many the current track is already the right track, especially as they are making npc's harder now. Perhaps trading should be less easy not more profitable than it already is.
Yes, I already do and I also play my online solo game, its called Elite Dangerous.Then play your offline single play game with no risk, and love it.
May I ask the name of the admin who has merged this?

No, you may not. They either tell it to you in PM or then don't. Either way, live with it.

*sigh* - there is no offline game.
Do we need a sledge hammer to hammer it down your puny brains?
Anyway, I agree if they made pirating, and by extension bounty hunting more profitable and more dependent on traders, and helped encourage traders into open, it would really add to the game. Exactly how they do that is up for ideas.
I don’t really agree with the no going back idea with open and solo, especially during the instances of griefers dumb firing missiles inside stations and all the hackers. Also if you limit anyone who started to play in solo to stay in solo, then you would never get the open numbers up.
I think there's plenty that Player's can do without FDev getting involved. There's a tiny minority messing it up for the rest. If Pirates dealt with that risk to their food chain, in a sort of protectionist style, if you get my meaning, then not only is there more interesting interaction, but less "Dad, Billy won't play with me right, make him, Dad... please..."
Which part of "automatic" did you not understand?May I ask the name of the admin who has merged this?
Easy fixes. Pirating - do NOT let people pay off their own bounties. That in itself would sort a whole lot of issues.
No, you may not. They either tell it to you in PM or then don't. Either way, live with it.
