Evasive action

It seems impossible to evade enemy fire, I try rolling, yawing, strafing, FA off and "floating". But no matter what the AI lands a hit. Kinda frustrating considering conflict zones are the best way way to start off.

I am in no means good at dogfights, hardly even avrage, but one thing that sometimes work is pull a hard pitch at best cornering speed while at the same time firing the latheral thrusters to push your ship downwards.
It takes you a bit out of the loop and occationally throws the pursuer off track getting you on their six, although often at a very close range.
But at least it breaks up the endless turning :)

Im sure others will give you alot more and better advice aswell!

But keep in mind also that IF someone gets in a perfect position on you and opens up, you will be at a big disadvantage even if not destroyed in the first attack. For all intents and purposes, its nothing wrong with dying in a situation like this, its rather expected ;)
