Just a serious address to those with complaints: have these?

has anyone actually had a video of them in 'anacondas' 'asps' and similarly high class ships being 'destroyed in seconds' after being interdicted/arriving at a signal source?

Like I'm not the best player, but I fly a Viper Mk4, a reasonably agile ship with good defences, but definitely nothing like a python or anaconda in terms of tankiness...

But like, seriously: Does anyone have any videos of them being outrageously and quickly destroyed 'because of this ridiculous AI?'

Like I get the '4 pips in SYS' is supposed to be your classic defensive driving technique but tbh I don't even do that that often. I'm pretty much a risk taker, and I've only died since the last patch to planetary defences while mucking around like an idiot.

But yes. I just see a lot of complaints and wanted to see some videos of how ridiculous it apparently is.

I'd certainly be interested to see them. From what I've seen so far (since the engineer weapons and associated bugs were removed) it comes down to pilots thinking that their ships are significantly stronger than they really are.

In another thread in the Engineers specific subforum I wrote, and I repeat here: I'm starting to believe these forum posts are the work of a PR firm or similar organization either trying to extort money from FD in exchange of stopping the negative advertisement or employed by other space game developers so that their games may have some resemblance of a chance against ED.

Now, I don't seriously think this of course but it's getting rather difficult to hang onto my sanity and accept this is just normal behavior of internet crowds.

The instant kill bug, where an NPC is armed with a weapon (usually a Plasma Accelerator) that rapid fires without cooldown you mean?
Not common, after all it IS a bug, but it's a bug FD acknowledge, and if you were paying any attention over last weekend you'd have seen threads with videos of large ships being instantly killed by such bugged weapons - so I'm not really sure what your point is here, other than perhaps trolling?
