The problem with the Kraits (while learning to fly) is the following: Bad boost -> It won't teach you how to control range, because the ship is simply not good at that. It will literally force you into jousting, i.e. drifting outside 3km range after every pass. The SRB PA loadout has a high...

hey devs! turn on friendly fire in CZ's for reasons :) thanks!

Honestly chaps i don't think Fdev could make an Open PVE only server (but i aint a programmer). Most MMOs (which is all i can compare it too) are set up that way from the start, (Everquest, ESO, WOW (most servers) in order that players cant attack each other unless there is an event triggered...

Ah, I was thinking of the normal ones, not the AX ones.

Hang on, so some poor pilot is limping home in a weakened ship, and you administer fatal damage to him? Sounds totally legit for a murder charge. More so than accidentally booping some shieldless twit with a Type 9 Heavy in a mailslot.

Speaking of bugged CZs, I've come across a couple recently such as this one in which all NPCs, both friendly and enemy, just stand around doing nothing: The enemy ones will fire at me if I come in sight but won't run towards me or run anywhere else. Also I'll get no "assist" kills by...

Yep, bad teammates in Overwatch know a dozen+ ways to ruin the game for everyone despite friendly fire being disabled.

They will take offence with full room aggro, but I've never got a fine or bounty from that.

...efficient/long range thermal vent laser turrets that you can use when interceptors shields are UP, then switch to AX MC. or you can put some flaks in teh mediums, but using flak in an AX CZ will put you at odds with NPC/Players due to friendly fire if you are not careful were you fire those flaks

Yes indeed i was just finally able to complete my very 1st SRV exploratory & survey venture ON planet ! ( starting to get a better feel for driving SRV on terrain & atmosphere ) i made 3 Geological 'discoveries' too , from these VENTS in the ground. Was really cool & fun ...and...

Honestly, I would kill for this. I just don’t know what animals could pick, there are so many good options! Bearded Dragon Leopard Gecko Basilisk Lizard Frilled Lizard Madagascar Day Gecko Leaf Tailed Gecko Tokay Gecko Corn Snake Indian Cobra Gaboon Viper Green Anaconda Emerald Tree Boa...

People who truly want to grief others will still find a way. Overwatch, which was a team-based PvP game with friendly-fire disabled, still had to add a block feature because players on your own team would do stupid things like jump up and down in front of you while you're trying to aim, or...

So what do we have to freight for Sirius to make AX Seekers available from tech brokers? It’s the least Sirius could do considering all the friendly fire incidents their experimental mega ship is causing. CG requested.

I've also noticed the unusual relative hospitality of the upper Thargoid spires. Very convenient landing pads with very ostensive Thargoid symbols. It's like they want you to come in, but are reminding you that you are a guest in their territory. And the Spire Refinery Compound container...

I've gotten bounties for friendly fire in AXCZs multiple times. Not just fines, bounties...for accidentally hitting someone with guardian shards which do very little damage to human ships. It is so common during the recent AX cgs that we've taken to reminding people frequently to turn off report...

Does that have anything to do with this? I just fought for WPC (picked their side before battle), didn't have any friendly fire incidents, killed all spec ops in time, won the battle, and yet my rep with them decreased. I haven't even fought once for AB yet. What gives? This is on EDH 3.8, btw.

...my life, thanks. I got fined more for that experimental hack on a random advertising holo. (It would also be quite nice to forgive friendly fire if the commander has got multiple enemy kills in an instance and stopped firing on the allied ship within a short time window. Especially when they...

So which setting would you recommend?

So, it seems we are incurring bounties for the cruisers getting their turrets shot off by aliens. I was no where near the cruiser to have had a friendly fire incident and yet gained 8k bounty over the course of the combat for assaulting turrets.

Greetings, Here is my weapon builds after many months of gathering Odyssey materials. What a grind. When I couldn't get them in-game I bought or traded for them on fleet carriers. Still I got pretty good at at finding them. Now I have a lot left over. Let me know. My play style is walk softly...

OTOH, the Guardians fought the same struggle against the Thargoids. They are, after all, aliens. It is entirely possible that they are incapable of peaceful coexistence with another species, that the concept of such a coexistence is something they simply cannot even entertain, not out of...

Now that the Anti-Guardian Zone Resistance engineering is a thing, other kind of engineering for the "vanilla" Guardian weapons could be considered. Could start at G1 and perhaps later add more grades if needed. I am considering blueprints from closest analogue Human weapons. Plasma Charger...

that could also be an option - it's already in place for Ground CZ for example where friendly fire is disabled for team members. However, It would still not remove an edge case of ramming another human ship and having it getting deflected into ground or geometry and having it destroyed by a...

...making life of fellow AX pilots a little more difficult. When instances really fill up, it’s increasingly difficult to avoid friendly fire. Just recently I’ve seen an upwards of 15 commanders instance, and at least as many NPC. So that’s 30 ships, spinning in close orbit with red eyes...

...by other parts of it. "Bounties never expiring", for instance, imposed a massive inconvenience upon people who incurred an accidental friendly fire assault bounty (especially since "reckless weapon discharge" fines didn't exist at the time!) by turning it from "wait 10 minutes" to "go find...

...mode if the target is still there when you switch back they will start shooting again, or you stow the weapons. Turrets will try to not hit stray friendlies by interrupting fire as they barge into the way, and you seem to get a little more leeway on friendly fire. Both get messed up by chaff.

Reading through this has reinforced my feeling that pledging to a power and gaining ranks seems a little too grindy and overly complex for my tastes. I think I'll hold off the whole PP thing for the foreseeable. I'm sure it's fun and immersive for some, though.

This is not true. The only thing that prevents friendly fire is the smart rounds engineering; or trigger discipline. Even a turret can if another ship gets in the way.

...weeks when people were left at the oya spires and their ~9 times the gravity people were used to week-in, week-out, leading to bulk unfriendly fire incidents and verbal conflict due to any and all patience being worn down. -- So, aim of keeping fatigue under control there, ensuring I can...

no There were 2 wars happening in the same system... 1 CG and 1 BGS... the BGS war has ended so leaves all confilct zones as CG war states

👆 this. Watch your fire and suffer the consequences if you don't. And the occasional stray shot happens to all of us 🤷‍♂️

Thats where human moderation comes to play. Every forum where I have been a moderator had this kind of clause "adminstration reserves right to ban any member who after thorough consideration is considered harmfull for forum." Regardless if said member ever really literally broke the rules.

Maybe YOU should seize the target?

Targeting systems in Elite can be very prone to generating friendly fire incidents which can be made worse by FaW it used to be considered a potentially profitable (you would be contributing to more kills) but risky (you could easily get both sides hostile to you) option in Conflict Zones.

...are stuck in strucktures. Ship which steals cargo is not well defended by his mates Allies become hostile too easily after occasional friendly fire (it should remove after next enemy ship is destroyed by you) Other than that it is generated as event on site, has waves, pretty well paid. So...

It was an inane response to an inane suggestion... and tbh, i can't be bothered to repeat the same counter-arguments over and over and over again. Want to punish crime? Let's start with a conversation about rewarding it first, otherwise you can't punish it, and it will forever remain a...

First encounter with Thargoids. Killed three small ones, got into it with a large one and he blacked out the power. :oops: K. Also, friendly fighters have a nasty habit of pulling right in front of me as I fire the Gauss cannons. So one bounty later, I'm heading back to get back at it. Think...

Just going to chime in with the thought that there's much to learn from how Wargaming and PGI handled 'Clan Wars' and 'Faction Play' in their respective online titles, and why nobody wants to engage in those systems anymore. All too often, lofty ideas of sophistication can land as opaque tedium...

There's always edge cases. In GTA Online, even if in passive mode, people can cause environmental effects to kill you, for example, blowing up a car that you are stood next to, so the exploding car kills you. But at least it avoids direct sources of damage.
