You could argue emotionally reacting to pixels so strongly your calling into question another persons character is also a sign of lacking moral fiber. Just to be clear, it’s not a one way street.
I’d like more commanders in the Open

You don't know many hunters, do you?
You were so close to getting it there for a sec...
And then you had to ruin it.
I am a hunter. Come on, you can do better.
But you apparently can't.
It's not the pixels. It's the real-world time spent on those pixels. All that time wasted for someone's lulz
Real world time that you agreed might be at risk from others by clicking "open".
The only time I can understand your argument is for explorers with weeks and months of data returning to the bubble. That would deservedly be rather infuriating. But is still not worthy of calling into question another humans character over something they would have no way of having knowledge of, and is ultimately not their responsibility, and also more importantly a game.
And if it’s that much of a concern use solo. If you die to player it’s only because you agreed to possibility
Yeh they need to give a reason for us to play in open, currently the games has no reward to the risk at all and the majority of the community does not like the idea of removing closes and private play.
personally I would love the game to be closed only but they need to add an incentive or areas within the bubble with higher security measures but less credits per hour. But most of all they need to add something to the game which forces unorganised pvp conflict since this entire game is pretty much 95% PvE and the BGC should have this forced PvP but instead it’s just another PvE grind

So, you want a griefer to have fun killing newbs and on top of that have the luxury of not being told by people what they think of him, how they see his character? Nope, that’s not how the ball spins. Grow the skin to take in all the dirt if that’s the path you’ve chosen. All that defensive “but it’s not worthy calling into question” is a high pitched whining unworthy of a respectable griefer. Show me character!!!
Show me character indeed
That's absolutely true. But we're talking about new players who may not know what "Open" fully entails. The first time I was ganked it happened so fast I thought it was a glitch. Until the screen telling me I was killed by "CMDR such and such". I didn't even know that was a thing and put me off the game for a while, until I used Solo. My understanding of Open was definitely more towards "PVE". I know better now, but at the time I didn't. I'm sure I'm not the only one...
Isn't the point of this thread about the lack of people in Open?
Same thing happened to me but I decided that I was gonna figure out how to be as close to ungankable as possible.
The progression from "not knowing much about how a new game works" to "knowing more with experience" is a time-honored one. Let's not fix that which isn't broken.
If you’re an explorer and you don’t want to risk months of data nobody would judge that in a negative manner.
but yes, and the point myself and others are arguing to address that is we want to see improvements to the game
As did I, and many others. But what about the casuals who are only playing because their friend got them into it, or are just looking for a realistic space game and thought they'd give it a try. Not everybody has bottomless resolve. Most people need to feel a difficult goal is still attainable. Getting wiped out in a matter of seconds tells most people "I'm out of my league and can't handle this" and thus leave the galaxy, never to return
the learning curve of elite is immense regardless of PvP, or not. And that feeling you describe can be handed to a new player by another player or the classic“gold floating in a uss“ trap.
so the onus is not on the PvP community for that one.
Totally agree: those anarchy systems should be DANGEROUS, and you shouldn't have to go looking for danger it should come to you, otherwise it isn't danger. For example NPC interdictions should be like player interdictions, at least in low sec/anarchy systems and an elite combat player should get his handed to him on occasion.
Perhaps that might recalibrate peoples' view of PvP (might)
And yet its been the gankers argument on this thread to this point, couldn't agree more, it is laughable.
Ahhh, so you think everyone should do what you did not what they want. This is gonna be a huge problem for you both in game and in real life, people wont do what you want or what you think coz they have their own minds.
Basically everyone should play ion Open, everyone should build a combat ship - and yet you keep saying repeatedly you aren't imposing your playstyle on anyone?
I haven't seen a single suggestion of an improvement, seriously. All you have said is 'give me more players to gank, give me more PVP' Why should fdev give you more PVP when you cant even organise it yourself and every improvements for PVP is used in Deciat to grief noobs.
If youre too immature to create your own game in a sandbox that doesn't involve targeting another player or their game, ie if you cant build you can only destroy, then don't play the game that isn't designed for you.
Alternatively, please list these supposed suggestions and brilliant ideas that we all must have missed, heres a clue, 'bring back CGs so I can act against the community and have more players to gank isn't it'
