I was entering a conflict zone, choose side, but i was wondering why there was only 1 ship, well i waited a bit nothing happens, so i waited a bit more and guess what 20 ships popped up out of the blue, many were enemy and well guess what, all red ones were shooting at me, im in my python at that time, and before i could do anything i was dead, 6 mil fore buying the ship back, i lost the 175 x Media Materials i had on me, and well i guess around 6-7 mil in unclaimed bounty, that was spread in around 35+ systems, every thing gone cause of a hick up in the system that did not pop the dang ships when you entered.

Well i then think oh well when every thing is reset to 0 so will my "Dorment Bounties" also ofc, cause you do loose every thing right ? no freaking not you only loose the good things, man things like this gets me reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly off, if they cant keep the system from lagging like this, then atleast get us disconnected when it happens, and not just oh well we let him sit there and then we just cross our fingers and hope nothing happens!!!

angry right now!!!
Things like this really gets me to think about go and play wow again.

Open a support ticket. IF it was a glitch and wasnt your fault I am sure they will help you out.
 
tip to cope with ships taking a few seconds to appear on entry to the CZ: don't pick a side until the radar is full of contacts, you wont get shot at if you are still neutral and can select the side with the most ships, target one to find out who they fight for then join them. ;)
 
This has happened to me three times. Drop into a CZ pick a faction and immediately every opposition combatant targets me. It's broken, like most things in this game.
 
I tend to 'cherry pick' on entering a CZ by boosting through the fight to the far side before picking a faction then working back in from the edge.

You might get some DevLove if it was a glitch.
 
Okay, just to make sure I understand all the facts you presented:

  • You entered a CZ that only contained one other ship and immediately pledged to a side not knowing the situation - check
  • You entered a CZ with a full cargo load - check
  • You entered a CZ with 6-7 million credits in unclaimed bounties that you had been too lazy to clear - check
  • You were in a Python, the second largest ship in the inventory, that would naturally attract all NPCs - check
  • You were destroyed - check
  • You blame FD - check

Yep, sounds like it was fully the fault of FD, I would submit a ticket if I was you!!!!
 
I once entered a Conflict Zone with a Lakon Type 6 laden with rares. I found a very profitable mission to kill ships in the conflict zone and thought it would be hilarious to do it in a T6. It had size 5 shields, so for a T6 it was pretty tough. It was hilarious for some time, I killed off three targets, then I got targeted by three enemies and unsurprisingly found it really hard to get out of their firing arcs with a laden T6. So I lost my rares and the mission. Not so hilarious then, predictable, yes, but not hilarious. :)

These things happen...lesson learned...move forward.
 
Sounds like lag but you should always wait and get yourself in a decent position before picking a faction. As far as loss of bounties and materials, it really is just a risk you take when going to a cz. It's the most dangerous combat short of PvP.

Couldn't help but get a chuckle.

You went in to a battlefield (with cargo and uncollected claims) and expect to come out fine.
Next your going to tell us it was a d-rated trade python and expected to do just fine.

Not to mentioned you picked a side before actually knowing the actual number of (potential) friendlies and hostiles.


The only pity I got for you is the fact the zone wasn't populated from the time you jumped in (I've gone to high-intensity CZs dozens of times and they are always already populated) but regardless you picked a side to fight on without knowing how many ships were going to be on what sides.


edit: ninja'ed about 30 mins ago. Should of read the rest of the posts lol

Ahem. Aren't you supposed to pick a faction depending upon your allegiance? (Not based upon your likelihood of getting killed balanced against blood-money obtained. How is PowerPants ever going to work with this sort of mercenary approach?)

Sermon over..

:)
 
Your mistake was that you thought this was one of those games where you win every fight every time?
Well ofc i know there is a risk of entering, but when you enter and see 1 ship and then pick a side, you do not expect 20 ships to pop 30 sec later at once, its like you want to go over the streat you see 1 car, so well hes parked, so you think yeah well its safe, but the sec you enter the road 20 cars comes from all sides, even that there was none 0.000000000000000000001 sec earlier. If i ed up my self i would not even had posted here, but when the game / system s up yeah then i freaking gets mad.

Yeah im not an idiot, if i were i would ofc go with no shield, no weap, and just try to ram them all.
This is the ship i fly:

Yeah lesson learned, don't trust a game that they cant keep running smooth.

Yeah i know, but i have been fighting like this since i came back the other week, and yet have to die once, 1-2 times only i had to use shield cell bank in this time i have been back, and if it was my own fault cause i took on to many ships at once, well i would not even have posted, but when its the system glitch hell yeah i get mad.

Let me see.
<inappropriate>


But as said before, when every thing spawns 30+ sec later when you have picked side, and they all then spawns at once, and start attacking thats not part of the game design, thats part of a bad server glitch.
Im rank 4 atm, so i get 25 xxx to pick up every 30 mins, so i do not want to fly the 70+ ly to deliver 25 every 30 mins, no i use my Python to do missions, and fly back again when the 30 mins are up, pick another 25, do more missions, my cargo hold 224 ton cargo, so i just do missions in between. As mentioned i came back last week, and i yet had to die once since then, if i had died frequently hell yeah would not take any risk then, but when you even have not yet been close, then you ofc think well it wont happen, and if it would then happens, its the risk you live with, but when it happens cause of a game glitch then its sorta , its like you have your cargo hold full of stuff, and you take a jump from 1 star to the other, but instead of landing a safe place as you usually do, you end up in the middle of the star, you then die well happens lesson learned, next time fly with 1 ton at a time, take a smaller ship, don't equip it with stuff cause it all cost when you die. And you then say well that you cant compare, ofc you can, both thing was not meant to be possible/able to happen, if 0 ship was there at the time i would had been suspicious, but since 1 were and it was flying around, i had no freaking idea that they spawn like that.

Did you seriously just equate your lack of common sense going into a BATTLEFIELD and where oh I don't know FIGHT and possibly lose your ship; to getting drugged and ?
