That's wonderful. He's averaging 3 kills per minute in that screenie. And it's not even a seal system like eravate, it's Cubeo.
The formula in action.. Drag on the ship, fsd reset, kill. By his own account, it's vastly more effective than his pre-drag buff runs in cubeo because until this he couldn't always land the FSD reset properly - as we all predicted drag making groms ez shot.
Funny, who was that telling me earlier this wouldn't be a big plus for gankers lolol?
I love how every time a post like this comes up we get dozens of pages of people repeatedly insisting they don't care.
Already explained it, see my other post. The guides are good and not what i was talking about. Just someone got their wired crossed thinking that i was talking about the guides from one member of SDC when i was talking about the forum posts/threads.
So, people are dying quickly to gankers... as opposed to people dying quickly to gankers.
I'm not seeing much of a change here.
Come off it, you must have already read my other reply before he posted that. Nothing was combo broke. Jeebus.
Hit refresh?
Can anyone post a video to youtube of this effect in action? It would be interesting to see how it works...
You have to admit - Before a fully engineered and decent pilot could usually escape a single ganker. A wing notsomuch. Most PP merit haulers caught would just book it and wake out before their shields went down.
Now that escape became a lot more difficult.
In this whole "what does 'griefing' mean, anyway?"-debate, there is one very simple rule.
Don't annoy other players, and don't waste their time.
If you're asking yourself why you get labeled a griefer and why people start blocking you, refer to this rule.
If it's that subjective it doesn't need to quantified or classified in legalistic terms.
Indeed, that's probably why 'griefing' is neither mentioned nor defined in the ToS and why Frontier's statements on the topic have focused on clarifications of what they consider to be actual harassment and in what contexts.
No.
Nor can we ban cilantro or punish it for tasting badgoodbadmediocremaybeidontknowitmightjustbestale.
Some people think I'm a ganker just because I'm from the opposite end of the same continent as jason.
A very simple, uselessly subjective, rule.
A lot of things annoy me, but you'd have great difficulty guessing exactly what they are. Telling me to apply this asinine rule, like I'm supposed to know who is going to get bent out of shape over what, is definitely on the list though.
Only a handful of things waste my time in game, but seeing my CMDR attacked by another CMDR is essentially never one of them.
Look at the bright side, things could be worse...
Griefing is directed, out-of-game harassment targeting the human being behind the screen.
Mass murderhoboing is valid, natural gameplay as allowed by the rules of the game.
If you don't want to experience PvP, stay the hell out of Open PvP environments. The moment you sign in to one, you consent to anything and everything that might happen to you. Period.
You gave up your right to "not be annoyed" and "not have your time wasted" the moment you signed in to Open. And blocking, as proven time and time again by many people, doesn't actually stop you from instancing with that person, and because Frontier works in spaghetti code, in most cases if somebody instances you in with somebody you have blocked, they'll be invisible to you, and you'll still take damage from them.
Stay in Private or Solo, bucko.
If that's not specific enough for people, a non-exhaustive list of griefing activities (which all meet that simple definition, and some of which have had multi-page threads on this forum complaining about the participants):
- Sitting quietly on a landing pad
- Buying cargo from stations
- Selling cargo to stations
- Shooting NPCs
- Shooting other NPCs
- Taking part in official events with at least two sides
- Running missions
- Be Frontier Developments
Indeed no, it's just one group of players threatening to take punitive action against another group of players until the game developers submit to their demands.
No, it's players who consented to PvP by signing in to an Open PvP environment utilizing an unbalanced and game-breaking mechanic against other players who consented to PvP by signing in to an Open PvP environment in order to demonstrate how it is game breaking so the developers fix the issue.
Y'all need to stop acting like this is real life.
To be clear, I wasn't talking about PvP in general, just this ludicrous 'Space Force' nonsense. The SF stuff is exactly as I described.
