Yep; a trolling, click-bait thread......... again.
Huh. So there are still exploit systems. Didn't know that. Still, if you take on missions and sell the cargo on the black market, don't you get a fine at the same time that keeps on building up? And your rep goes down too, if I'm not mistaken.
Maybe not. We'll see.
It really is, & I feel sorry for the players that are genuine pirates, because they have to put up with the stigma of the OP. That OP is what leads to both Combat Logging & Griefing. It's a chicken or the egg arms race.
Oh dear, I see I'm going to have to walk you through it.
Here's the OP, bolding mine.
Then a known member of a PvP group posts:
Ridiculing the OP, I respond
Which means that PeLucheuh response after that was unrelated. Which means that your degrading remark about my understanding was deliciously ironic.
Can you read what's written right in front of your face my dear? Or am I going to need crayon illustrations?
sthaaaap!!!! cannot rep you again rofl
Agreed. It's getting to be more than pathetic.
One of my alt CMDRs has just started dabbling in the life of a pirate because of the upcoming changes in the Q1 release. This CMDR will be an 'honorable' pirate, his weapons of choice the hatch-breaker and collector limpets. I interdicted a couple of players yesterday at the CG, and none of them clogged. One had the ability to fight back, but he didn't. I think this is because I didn't even deploy hardpoints - I just started cracking their hatches. They did high wake out before I could get anything, so I'm going to unlock the Engineer that provides FSD disruption mods.
Originally I was thinking of building a ship that's PvP combat focused, but I'm realizing that's not necessarily the best build for true piracy. Now I'm looking at weapons that can disable weaker cargo ships and take out subsystems like the cargo hatch, point defenses, etc without destroying the ship. Advice anyone? Most real pirates old and modern actually run when facing other warships, so this idea of creating an engineered godship that can kill anything is more about griefing than piracy...
TL;RD - As a new pirate myself (alt account), I welcome these changes Frontier is bringing to C&P and trading.
