    Ships Corsair Build for PP / Regular Combat Zones (CZ) and Haz Res / CNB

    Hey all, haven't played a massive amount since pre-engineering and loving the new corsair and wanted to make a well tuned CZ build for it. I used to do a bunch in my old Courier, clipper and fdl back in the day. Made a few builds and would like some input on them, or what you run on it. Would...

    Powerplay - Contested Systems - Combat Zones - Conflict Threshold

    I want to fight in pp combat zones to grind merits - but I can't seem to find powerplay combat zones with anyone in them. I find plenty of them, and I'm specifically going to the ones with the power I'm pledged to in contested acquisition systems - but they've been empty both nights I've tried...

    Newcomer / Intro Combat Zones - Should I cut my losses

    Hi, I've never been a big combat player, mainly because it's expensive to learn, especially back when I originally played and it took a long time to grind up to having a single multi-purpose Cobra III or DBX, it would take hours of gameplay just to earn enough to afford to die once... Thats how...

    Funny bug: Passenger mission requests impossible to fulfill

    Every once in awhile, a Colonia region passenger asks for a side trip to a CZ or something like that. Where is the CZ they wanna go to? 22k ly away, back in the bubble! And they want to get there in 2min and 30s! Look, this is not Mass Effect. Lady, you're in the wrong game. There needs to...

    Log entry about the end of the conflict zone

    This has been already asked, and I'm pretty sure that more than once, but it still hasn't been implemented while players who are interested in BGS still need this. Fully automatic tracking of conflict zones is simply impossible for now. Adding "SupercruiseDestinationDrop" event was a big step...

    Thargoid Combat Zone support

    In counter-strike systems, we are asked to engage in combat zones, which could be outside planetary bases, or in orbit. Unlike Alert systems, there is no way to rearm or repair when fighting in these arenas. If you do leave to repair, the instance is reset and progress is lost, unless you've...

    Combat Zone enemies remaining mismatch

    So this happened to my buddy and I last night 3 times in a row: Join a combat zone in a team Reduce enemy team's tickets down to zero He shows zero enemies remaining, I show 1 or 2 enemies left No enemies anywhere in the settlement, match won't end. If I leave the planet, the moment I'm gone...

    General Combat zones.. with fighters!

    Same mechanic seen in odyssey ground combat zones, but in space using fighters. You go to frontline solution, enlist for a space combat zone and a dropship bring you to a carrier (or maybe you board directly on a fighter capable ship) and you spawn in a space combat zone similar to the CQC. Do...

    Scarlet Krait Error - Combat Zones

    Wanted to provide attention to FDevs on getting the server disconnect error code 'Scarlet Krait" whenever I press to exit combat zones after finishing the fight. Got into combat zone thrice and got the same error after winning the fight. The server disconnects after the 15sec countdown. Please...

    Found a way to make REALLY easy money in starter ships, checking if exploit

    Hey, so some friends and I have been trying to see what the limits were for using air-support for ground CZs and it occurred to me that it was VERY easy to use missiles to kill ground soldiers for a LOT of profit. And so I did. And then I thought "This is nice and all, but it seems like I'm only...

    Tweaking war-time mission goals: massacre efficacy vs CZ challenge

    I'd like to talk about the current implementation of war-time massacres and how I think mission goals and rewards could be rearranged to gel better with the current incarnation of combat zones. Massacres are the principal war-time BGS mission, as well as being the primary way to make wars...
