Still sore after the npc combat downgrade ?

I suggest this.
Kill every cmdr you come across. It WILL make you feel better.
And if FD ever do give us those fight worthy npcs back, just keep killing cmdrs anyway.
The price to pay has to be severe for taking those npcs away. [mad]
 
because using heat weapons to kill CMDRs flying inferior ships is sooo challenging,right?

The whole reason we wanted tough NPCs is for the challenge. Its no fun when killing a CMDR is easier than killing an NPC.

Its not about the challange. Its about finding peace with the suffering of others. [yesnod]

Such things no longer bring my any pleasure. Now if I could actively track and hunt someone in Elite then that would be awesome. Then I could kill specific people and that would be great.
 
I am still very , very upset about the lack of good AI in the game.

However , I will not attack any player or any n00b for the lack of intresting AI.

I would argue that this is greifing... because there is no lore reason , no role play nor gameplay.
On the best of cases its protesting , on the worst virtual terrorism.

The AI got downgraded.
It went from okayish with OP weapons to too easy. I think we will see some improvements in 2.2.
If not then its time to send feedback again.

However
Attacking players will not help (it just makes us look stupid)
Insulting devs wont either.

FD do a great job (even if I dont agree with a lot of the recent stuff)
SJA does a amazing job , her AI is not dumb its being hold back and her AI is better than any other AI I have seen so far. (Okay Xwing alliance AI was harder , but rumour has it that it reads your input)

I am upset about the AI thing , and indeed many wanted the game to be easy and become an egoshooter and I hate that idea... but we should not pick on anyone.

Voice your opinion , thats what we need to do.

(But please FD , let us have good AI , even if its in a new mode called ''Open-Hard'')

PS I am pro PvP and find the idea of RP a killer cool , but you need a lore reason if you are going to go around killing everyone.
 
Interesting. I need a lore reason to kill cmdrs. You know what. I dont.

I love a Vulture for fighting.
Vulture is an excellent killer. Is yours modded up? I have an unmoded one but mostly my PVP ship is an old style stealthy FAS and now a Meta heavy anaconda. Currently I'm in my anaconda doing the Gold and BH CG in 133. If you attack me, I will not take offence and depending on whether I'm empty or hauling gold, may even stop for a fight.
 
Lets be honest here. How many games have you bought, enjoyed, only for an update to kill the experience for you ? Most of the time those updates are driven by the thread developers. Is it just ever so slightly possible that people are clueless ? Let FD make their game the way they want.

My Vulture is sold. Any I fly now will be standard. No upgrades for the killing spree needed here. I'm on xbox btw.

Crap. Never mind. I'm PC. Good hunting then. Think you may find more satisfaction going to the CZs or REZ sites during CGs. At leas at those the players can put up a bit of a fight... Or learn a valuable lesson.

Good hunting, cmdr.
Esprit de corps.

Yep, SJA (or MoM as she is affectionately known) is an absolute GENIUS when it comes to creating more human-like AI. Sadly her efforts are largely wasted because a vocal minority keep demanding that the AI be lobotomized. Sad really :(.

I'll attack Empire aligned PP CMDRs (except AD) and Mahon CMDRs. Especially Mahon

Oi, you leave us Mahon supporters alone :p.

To be honest, the only thing I would have done differently is roll out modded npc's more slowly. I wouldn't have nerfed them as far back as they did.

The high ranked ones aren't so bad as they used to be pre buff but overal I have to agree it's kinda annoying. Better they just raised the value of the bounties accordingly. During the brief and enjoyable time the NPCs were brutal I had to refit most of my ships as if they were facing actual players and so far as I'm concerned, that's a good thing.
