PvP Harassing Deciat Gankers
- Thread starter Threeofseven
- Start date
If people self destruct they are effectually surrendering, we still get the kill, Just means we did not have to waste extra time dealing with you and can move onto the next kill.
You're inability to respect my right to self-destruct is disturbing.
Wargfoot, dear.
I hope there comes a time for you in the game when the ship you are flying and the rebuy become irrelevant. In PvP, if I manage to escape an instance and actually have done some damage, that is a victory for me. Expect to die in PvP Warg. And more importantly, not care about it, even if your death is plastered all over YouTube. Care about your flying skills. In fact, Beseiger just killed me yesterday as I was high-waking out in Deciat and I would expect no less ferocity. Beseiger was doing exactly what he was supposed to do. I love the challenge. Excepting cheats and premium ammo, I want everything thrown at me. Kill me. I then know I have to get even get better. Death is very motivating.
Besides, the concept of the right to self destruct is so PvE.

Slange,
I really cannot discuss this right now as I'm terribly down-trodden that we've lost Bigmaec.
I'm going to blow myself up several times in solo play as a form of protest but he won't care... nobody will care.
Between this latest development and Krash luring me out into open so a compatriot of hers could whack me, well, it is just getting to be a bit much.
If anyone needs me I'll be at Dav's Hope farming materials.
I'll use upgrades to find a distant part of the galaxy to hide in... some place where nobody will find me and the people are respectful of one another.
I'm thinking Colonia.

You have to ask yourself this question: "Do my posts that celebrate Wargfoot's death solve the problem or contribute to it?"
I think the answer is clear.
I await an apology, or at the very least, forum moderators to put an end to this persecution.
-Indignantly Yours,

old.reddit.com is your friend, or reddit.com/.compact on mobile. The default interface is trash, but these two are decent.
That would actually make my day. These sorts of bizarre hilarious unexpected encounters help make the game worth playing, since so much of it is slog.
I might even self destruct with them, if they were responsive on comms. Make it some sort of spiritual event.
As far as surviving 30 secs, a keeneyed ganker might notice the heat damage in time to enjoy the show.
The thing is Bigmaec, Wargfoot is playing 3d chess here while you're looking at things through the FD propaganda lens.
Folks go around thinking the goal is to make credits, increase command capital, blow up ships, etc.
The real goal is to have fun. And since I don't know how much time I have left, I'm going to get real weird with it. Wargfoot understands this, and is willing to defy all convention in order for total victory.
Nah, having fun is the goal.
Watching someone blow their own ship up is hilarious, trust me
Ahh I see Kari beat me to this sentiment. My fault for starting to take frequent week long breaks from this game and the forums. Much healthier though.
Z0.
I've said it before, and someone said it before me (in relation to SS13 of all things) that the moment you lose sight of the fact that the purpose of a video game is to have fun is the moment you're out of touch
You can argue about ways of having fun that come at the expense of the fun of others, but playing a video game should never cross the threshold into work
You sound like the ideal ambassador to pass that on to fd for us!
This sounds absolutely ridiculous, but one of my long term goals (and what I would think would be fun) is to head out to Colonia with 3-4 people in Sidewinders and harass the absolute crap out of Loren's Legion. (1) Now the stated goal of the group would be to drive them from Carcosa, but obviously, not having any real chance of succeeding. This would be similar to flies bothering a horse. I think it would also be good practice for flight skills.
The payoff after weeks of harassment is the one time you catch Phisto (2) off guard and actually destroy his ship.
There is a beauty to him hanging his head low, telling others in his squadron, and the universal chorus of "Wait, lol... you died to those guys?"
I'm going to have to die hundreds of times just to learn what works and what doesn't work.
I'll probably do that in a cheap ship so I can experiment and be a pest.
NOTES

1: There is probably better 'harrassment' set ups, but I'd want to do something along these lines.
2: He's not on my list per se, but his name is the watermark on all of my stationary.

clown paintjobs when?
It does sound ridiculous, given that Loren's Legion aren't even present in Carcosa.
If you actually read my posts once in a while (and maybe my sig), you'd know that it's Loren's Reapers who are backing the owners of Carcosa.
Really Wargfoot, if you can't get the little things right, how are you going to cope with the big ones?
