Arghh! This 'ere salty sea-dog is a pirate!
Wooden leg, wooden leg, I've got a wooden leg!
Oi you, giv' us a beer!
Be the pirate. Be the thief that the PSN deserves.

I am going to be Mr Goody Two-Shoes to start with at least making my way across the Galaxy. Piracy, maybe later.
Our corporation could be looking to enlist the services of someone with a clean record, we should scheduled a PSN hook up when time permits to talk details.
That is of course if you like being financially free ...

Consider mining. Mining laser, Prospector controler, collector controler, refinery = profit
I'll always be looking for other CMDRs to fly with once I have got my space legs.
Our arrangement would more so be on the side of "fly for" and very likely to be illegal, but profitable.
The Engineers are a group of NPCs that can make your ship overpowered. Do the right tasks and get the stuff they need and that Fixed Huge Beam Laser for your Fer-de-lance might as well be the Death Star's main weapon. Really though, don't bog yourself down to one play style. I managed to start Cargo and Data runs with a transport then take that money and drop into my combat ship. Later, I'll grab an Anaconda and go hunting Large ships with it. And here's a ship builder so you can start planning out your ships. You will start with a Sidewinder but after that... go nuts! https://coriolis.edcd.io/outfit/sidewinder
As for the ship I'm going to be running here soon. https://coriolis.edcd.io/outfit/vip...90204B332295827v525.AwRj4jTUg===.IwBj4jTUg===.
No KWS on a hunting ship?
Nope... My combat style is about just seeing if someone is wanted and reduce them to sub-millimeter debris.
Also my Load Out can't support a KWS. I tried today and it shuts off even with the Planetary Vehicle Hanger (PVH) turned off. Not a big issue for me as I try to avoid being shot at by System Security Anacondas for a "1 Star offense" for firing on a miner with 200,000 in bounties from other systems.

As Commander JT442 just mentioned, DRX would welcome any new PS4 players. I'm actually a PS4 player myself, who couldn't wait for ED to be released, so bought an XBox juyst to play it on. Best decision ever as its given me the chance to already experience this amazing game for several months now already as well as help to form DRX. +check us out on the Xbox forums)
But when ED lands on the PS4, I'm looking to also play the game there, so any new PS4 players feel free to look me up.

No power for a kws?
The build for the VIper you posted had no power priorities set on it. if you don't set priorities for modules you're missing out on a great little tactical part of ship building.
For instance, always turn off the cargo hatch (and set to level 4 or 5) when not using it, and anything else you don't need to have on while you're doing what you're doing.
Afmu? - only turn it on when you need to use it as very power hungry (priority level 5 so that when you switch it on it won't turn other important stuff off)
Scoop - level 5. It aint helping unless in supercruise. Same goes for interdictor too.
Play around with priorities like this and you can make it so that all your low level stuff that isn't needed when you drop out of Supercruise can then, just be left to switch power off when you deploy weapons.
You'll find you can then often run a lower class power plant than the stock level.
Switching stuff off also means you're using up less fuel

I intend to be a pilot who isn't afraid to get their hands dirty, smuggling and bounty hunting is a life for me.
Don't you dare think about ganking me. [big grin][big grin][big grin]
Not ganking other folks, I hate being ganked myself so I rarely do it to other people, might try my luck if they have a huge bounty but usually I get wrecked, lol.
I have been thinking about this for awhile myself. I went BH (npc) on PC to start. This time, I'm thinking smuggler/trader and NPC pirate. I'll likely do some BH to raise some capital as well.
A great thing about the game is that we can quickly shift between styles depending on mood and cash
