New NPC's are a thrill to fight.

Yep! I just had to get out of Neits where I was participating in the CG, but after this update... Those CZ's were a whole new ball game it seemed!

After the update, i didnt find one majestic, all of them ended up being farraguts and that made me a very unhappy camper :rolleyes:

And to add to that, i got a bounty for shooting condors in the conflict zone even though i aligned with the empire
 
Oh new npcs? I wondered what happened. I got my Python down to 23% in a few seconds by another Python. I guess bounty hunting just got less profitable than normal.
 
I don't understand why all the enemy ships in a CZ immediately turn on me and forget about the ships they are already engaged with. NPCs on my side don't seem half as aggressive. I think there has been a little over compensation.
 
Was in a CZ in Zaragas just now and a capital ship showed up on my side, thankfully. Gosh that never gets old!

But yeah... the AI is much more aggressive and much more skilled now! My FAS just took a good beating! He hasn't been that badly damaged in a while.

Oh, a side note...the new Large multi cannons aren't all that good. Just my humble opinion :)
 
Watch out for Vultures now, the AI easily outflys big ships now.
AI Vultures easily outfly my Vulture and I don't think I'm that bad. I know how to FA off a bit but they fly rings around me. They seem to be able to use all six axes at once in a way we puny humans can't, especially on a console controller.
 
So that's what's happening. My FDL was getting hammered in the Neitis Cg. I had to run 3 times. I can't remember the last time that happened lol. I love it.
 
jesus that's scary. popped into a res and fds nearly took my shields before I popped him.

on the plus large multis are frickin awesome and I've collected some new materials that aren't showing illegal salvage
 
Went into a high res site and took on a dangerous python in my fas, easy peasy before 1.6, now they give up a good fight and are far more agile and all over the place, no more spinning on one spot either.
The master anaconda I took on after that went thrue my shields in seconds and reduced my health from 100 to 60% after I finaly got him.
The new viper mk4 police is a great help now.
Got to get used to this before going into hazardous res sites.

You realy have to work now to get 2 million an hour with bountyhunting in res sites.
 
I just got interdicted by a Vulture bounty hunter rated Dangerous. I thought I could handle him with a ship named Pookie. Boy was I wrong! What even worst is that police actually make it out to the site now and return fire on me. Geez! I have to relearn how to fight, its a new ball game now.
 
Yeah, the new NPCs are MEAN. On the other hand, I was able to pick up 3 missions from the local stations to kill 4, 16 and 30 enemy ships in a CZ for 100K, 950K and 1.75 M respectively. So greater risk and greater reward. With greater fun! PERFECT.
 
Dudes and dudettes, two Cobras nearly destroyed me. They were master rank. It was so thrilling. I came out on top but woah.
