Trying to play this game, but frequently being blown apart by idiots. Where's the justice to be dished out to these numbskulls?!
Getting the crap blown out of you by idiots
- Thread starter SuperAdachi
- Start date
Solo play - quite peaceful so far.
It depends where you are...
Outside a station, unless you're a fugitive yourself - the station authorities will help you out, bear in mind that they wont magically save you though. Your justice may be meeted posthumously.
In a combat zone or deep space - for the former - you're fair game for anyone on the opposite side, no one will save you except your own allies (same as above really but less targeted). The latter - you're probably on your own unless you're very lucky, the consolation is if you are attacked illegally, your attacker will be wanted by the law. It probably isn't much of a consolation for you though, I'd guess that real-life murder victims would feel the same if they could.
I didn't notice which status the system had. Just that in one altercation I was flying away from the pl;ayer for 15 mins but they still had to get me, bah!
Solo is good idea for me ,, thanks

I guess you are visiting anarchy system then.
Aye ... **** happens ...
I also had 2 encounters with pirates when flying from the jump point to Azeban City in the Eranin System.
In the first case it was definitely an NPC pilot ... in the 2nd case I don´t know as someone else came to my help and made the killing shot.
Both cases very costly (for a beginner) as the pirate got my hull down to ~10%.
But well, that´s what our weapons are for ... not (just) for destroying space junk

15 Minutes!... err you know you use Supercruise or Hyperspace Jump to escape?..... *slaps head*

Well, then you bear a portion of the blame, I'm sorry to say. In anarchy systems, "justice" is what you dispense from your hardpoints.
Solo play will help, but if you don't bother to note the law level of the worlds you visit, you're going to have a bad time, 'k? There are NPC pirates too, you know

Gamecat, I tried to engage hyperdrive but I get inhibited by the attacker? Am learning alot here.. noticing the mission throws you into Anarchy system so am probably well out of my league there..
Hmm.. The title is too harsh, they were NPC most likely. Ok then, I'll go to the n00b sector and have a sulk ... !

I've done a few cargo runs in my little Sidewinder now (in between about 10 CTDs), nobody has fired on me yet *crosses fingers*.

Wich is a Great thing! The game threats you like an adult and dont holds your hand all the time (like many modern games).
Yes, sorry chaps - I was harsh with the title! Am getting the hang of all these aspects of the gameplay, a fantastic journey...
This morning when I went into the all group I was supercruising with 3 other players on the radar all heading to the same station so it looks like it may be possible to start chasing.
Also I have noticed that in the anarchy systems the bulletin boards will give out piracy missions and you have to kill certain types of target in certain systems.
So you may have had somebody iwth one of those missions as well.
Due to all the CTD's I went into the solo group though until the player matching sorts itself out again.
