As explained in this thread
1. Fines don't make you wanted
2. Bounties can be paid in stations where you are not wanted.
That might make more sense. Thanks.

One hit with a Plasma accelerator will most likely turn you wanted, true.
One hit with a rail gun may turn you wanted, true.
A (few) hit(s) with a pulse laser or multi cannon will only turn you wanted if the target has no shields or loses more than X % of it's shields due to your hit.
This is the way it was described by FD, should work and normally does (I have tested it multiple times). If it doesn't in some situations, it's a bug and should be reported. What it shouldn't cause is people requesting all connected play mechanics to be dumbed down to compensate for the bug.
Why are they called level 2 and level 3 scans anyway, why not call them Basic scan and detailed surface scan or somesuch?
I wonder as 1.3 is looking like such a big update they will go for a slightly longer (two weeks, 10 days?) beta this time - allows for 2 weeks crossplay testing also.

If they have shields and it's not a Class 6 (hehe I doubt you can even get Class 6 weapons, but I don't know) then no it shouldn't. Bug it
Still they could have foreseen the pain our F5 keys are now going through. They could at least have said something like "not today, we will announced when they are released". Except, of course, of soon means later today.
Was there any changes to NPC combat.. Just entered a RES that I have being using for weeks in my vulture. First fight I picked for the first time ever my shields get dropped, and I escape with 40% hull..
I might be out of practice as I just got back from the deep black on a 2 week long exploration trip, but I think this just got real!

Exactly. Glad to see at least some people test gameplay mechanics before complaining about alleged bugs.
My exploration statistics show 0 under level 3 scans. If this meant to refer to the detailed surface scanner then the numbers are not correct.
I am returning today with over 200,000,000 cr worth of exploration data to sell. Ambiguity over changes to exploration numbers does not fill me with confidence.
Michael, is there any reason I should hold off on selling this data today?
Could other value changes have taken place that may negatively affect exploration data selling?
If I get back after this long exploring and half of my data is gone, or cartographics wants to sell it at a fraction of what it should be or any other bug that ruins this entire journey I swear I am instantly uninstalling this game, no drama, no long "I quit" posts, just quietly and permanently finished.

Mmm, I am afraid it is not like that.
I would have several Level 3 scans accounted for, if it was.
And instead:
So, I'd believe:
Lvl 1 = ping with D-scanner
Lvl 2 = detailed surface scan
Lvl 3 = not yet implemented (maybe intra-atmosphere or after-landing scans to be seen later in the game?)
This, however, makes the 'regular' scanning (after pinging, just selecting and pointing our ship at the object, as we do with other ships) useless (as it does not fall in any category).
Maybe it has not been implemented correctly...?
@andrak, we are in the same boat...

What is this? Have our prayers been awnserd - Fix Commander Stats for selling level 2 and level 3 survey scans
Please please please can people stop using this line, it's getting really old now.
If they have shields and it's not a Class 6 (hehe I doubt you can even get Class 6 weapons, but I don't know) then no it shouldn't. Bug it
I dont think there is a class 6 beam if there are class 6 weapons
Seems like a bug which while understandable doesnt make this change any less annoying when it affects you.
Still wouldnt hurt them to fix their AI though. The amount of times "friendly" ships have rammed me or close to (which is normally how i clip them) is getting silly.
I had a 150k anaconda trying to shift away, i had it down to 1% hull, my weapons charged enough for me to do the final shot, when a Security service ship rammed me from behind trying to get to the conda, about 2 seconds after that, the bounty had jumped. I was not happy

If it's already happening then what's the problem? Cheaters and gold farmers are unavoidable really. That doesn't mean we have to give up on certain functionalities and mechanics because they would abuse them...
I don't know, I'm not a Frontier employee and I don't have access to this sort of information. Wish I had though!
Except scratching with beams cause me to get a bounty.
I'm not moaning about nothing. If it s a bug then i will raise it and hope they fix it soon.
However dumbass AI moves still plague the game
