Alpha Centauri Warning..

[body count]

Ok, hang on, where the hell where YOU when various pirate groups were blockading Hutton Orbital a few months back huh? NO Federation ships responded to the thousands of distress calls and pleas for help from the Federation, not a single damn one.

And people wonder why I'm an Emperor's Man, at least She sends help when it's requested, even if it's not Her own people who request the help....

If I wasn't a few thousand light years away in the Black, I'd be there kicking your Federation ass back to Sol, and making sure Hutton Orbital stays under the control of the Hutton Truckers, I didn't fly out thousands of tons of scrap out there for the Federation or Empire to control that station damn it.

I'm not completely sure where I was exactly at that time, but around that time I was in chona (empire) distrupting trading lanes, forcing empire guys to throw their cargo and making them watch those cans pop or killing them, so I was still a good fed.

I had no idea alpha centauri was in trouble. Just realized that after I came home and checked the map. It's a sad situation what happened.

Dear, Body Count

There are several reports and videos of alleged cheating from your part, mostly not appearing in supercruise and strange damage resistance and output.
We are aware that there might be legitimate, non-cheating reasons for this, so if possible can you record your "Heroic" act of terrorism on inocent citizens?
It can easily clear your name of any alleged misconduct and we can also send it to the developers, so they might find and fix the issue.

Yours truly
A trucker

P.s.: This quote part is only for you to get a notification. Please inform me if it worked.

Dear avering,

not appearing in supercruise lol. I dn, whenever I was in supercruise no one really had big problems seeing me or trying to interdict me. As for some not seeing me when I was in supercruise, you should ask FD really, I didn't see some either at times and when they did appear it didn't look like they just jumped in or smth similiar. So we can go both ways regarding that. As we can talk about when I clearly win interdiction and the guy is nowhere to be seen. I presume bugs, laggy or slow server, wrong instance, ... ?

Now regarding damage output and damage tanking by I presume fdl, yeah, I agree, it's tanking like a beast and damage output is excelent lol. But no, I'm not puting video of flying or how it's fitted, that would be suicidal from my part, there's 800 of you after all. But I do have this, it made me giggle a bit when I saw it, seems things aren't going so good if truckers need to be begging for mercy

I was also having some laughs when I saw someone actually brought a cutter into the system. I mean, why not just bring type 9 with guns? It's more agile after all!

but you can send me a video, I remember of some stuff and what was going on, maybe I can at least answer if it was a bug or not. State also which parts of the video you find problematic in case you'll send it.

P.S. : if that "elite" fdl guy that interdicted me and wanted to fight was from your group... it's a rotten thing to do when you lost and you're supposed to die to exit a game or kill a client to save the ship. Now that's an exploit and it's officially stated it's an exploit. Next time fdl guy, if you're reading this, you're getting reported for that.

I didn't get notification for quote thing I think, or I just might have missed it.

Yes that supercruise was a mistake on my part, I meant after submitting to interdiction. Apologies.
The damage issue was referred to your Imp. Eagle (funny considering you fight for the Feds). And just knowing your loadout shouldn't really affect you that much. Fixing the netcode should be a bit more important. But if nothing else you can just blur out the parts you want to keep a secret.
Also, as you were able to shoot others down, yet the hunting parties have a hard time catching you, some people are concerned, as it does look a bit shady.

Courtesy of a fellow trucker. Didn't wait for his answer after asking permission though.

As you can see, the main issue is you not appearing after interdiction. A simple video clip from you showing that you are also just falling out of supercruise and without anyone following would suffice. (No need to show any combat in this case.)

Combat logging is generally frowned upon in our circles as well, but if you find one again can you write the name up? We could investigate.

I was shooting people down with fdl not with eagle I didn't fire a single shot with eagle.

Damage issue isn't issue at all regarding it I think. When I was getting shot at it was at quite a long distance and the thing is small, and fast. With flight assists off the amount of damage received drops a lot too. I was getting hit only by 1 auto cannon basicly for few seconds, everything else missed.

Interdicting problems happen to me too. Probably 4-5 times yesterday, 2 days back 3 times in a row interdicting a cobra. In the video bellow it seems to happen more times since I'm close to the sun, it can also go bananas if someone is approaching the sun and you start interdicting him then if there's not enough room for interdiction mini game to play out without crashing into a star or something, it just cancels everything and drops you out of supercruise. Or it might be just that server confuses instance at some situations, I dn.

But in those cases I didn't see them either, I just dropped alone out of super cruise. They did manage to do it once or 2 times, I presume from there comes the complaining about low dmg done to it

P.S. that FDL on video is terrible

Np, with eagle setup at all, it's a throw away ship...

Here's the eagle:

I'm not exactly sure why are you linking these pictures? They are completely unnecessary in this instance, the loadout is irrelevant.

The sun being close while can be a sound argument at times (I can personally attest that it can happen), you were facing away from it, thus it was not an emergency stop. As I said, a simple videoclip about an interdiction from you point of view would suffice.
The damage disparity will be dismissed for the moment, as there are videos of it being bugged at times.

omg so much birocracy and ****. There are no videos, I didn't record any, I don't intend to record any, cause then I would need to edit them. Last time I've read FD implemented some software to measure such stuff so ask them. I've wasted enough of time debating about the whole thing. I showed enough patience already. Regarding clearing my name, I'm assasinating everything from sidewinder to anaconda there in cold blood, so cleaning my name from my perspective is sort of meaningless and I am used of people calling me hacker/cheater or whatever every time something doesn't go their way or when they end dead - from world of tanks, so I'm almost imune to that.

Ask FD regarding the problems or have a debate circle in the community or whatever.

I can play along with recording the video and stop the killing if you send those 300 active members to do federation missions for a week or 2 in alpha centauri and return the system to rightfull owner of the system - federation. But that's not happening so good luck and see you on the battlefield.

Over and out

Regards

Since there was no target lock on the ship that was there, we don't know if it was him or not. I know, it was a solid blip and not a hollow one. That could be a bug. That could have been him. I'm not going to take this seriously without seeing a target lock confirming that it's not him.

 

[Dequator]

I can highwake out during interdiction, other ppl can do it i think.

 

[MalfunctionM1Ke]

We're hoping ED will eventually allow a way to jump to a specific star, so this will be less of an issue.

FD pls.

I love the fact that people are still discovering this in our day and age !

There are always missions to Hutton in the surrounding systems. Do the run around them all and you can easily pull 3 million plus while having lunch if you stack Hutton runs.

Went there the other day with about 2 mills worth of cargo delivery and and a pile of data deliveries all paying 200k plus.

15 minutes out I went and had something to eat, came back to 20 mins left.

While AFK is never really sensible, the Hutton run is about as safe as it gets when running full throttle. The 20k integrity and paint repairs don't even worry you when you get the millions on a full belly.

You`ve never been interdicted?

Interdictions only usually occur at the start and end of a long SC trip. Ships have the same performance and can't be caught on a straight run.

I like that long distance stations are in the game, both for nostalgia and for variety.
If you could micro jump to Hutton you would never remember the trip. It would be just like all the others. How could that be an improvement?

 

[Iain M Norman]

I for one am glad the long run to Hutton exists. It's generated a lot of fun and laughs over the years.

 

[Harley Quinn]

You`ve never been interdicted?

Never on a Hutton run. Even in open. After the first 15 minutes if everybody else has dropped off your sensors or is too far away they are never going to catch you.

It would need someone lurking in SC half way who can react and accelerate quickly enough to get you. A chance? Yes. But without a CG for targets any pirate going through that amount of time and work to catch me deserves the win.
