Player ramming at Fan Horizon

Thing is, it's called 'Dangerous'. Enjoy your Carebear mode.

Ah, the old "Dangerous" trope :)

The "Dangerous" in the name comes from the player rating in Elite - thought you should know that. Besides which, using the "Well it's called Dangerous" trope is no justification for the behaviour being described here - that behaviour is an abuse of the game machanics - it's taking advantage of something which has been overlooked during development of the game.

The bonus is your use of "'Carebear". Stay classy! :)
 
- that behaviour is an abuse of the game machanics.... bla bla

Tell that to the kamikaze pilots of WWII.

"Hey, those guys are griefing!"

Is that so. That means it's entirely redundant and rather silly.

My 'dangerous' comment is, in short, to point out that anything can happen in a MMO. Innovation, exploits, un-forseen tactics and mechanics will occur and many of them often surprise the devs. Some are remedied as obvious exploits - exploit being defined as a mechanic that gives a player a very unfair advantage and cannot be remedied by actions of other players. In the case of your station monkey, what would you do in such a case? Handle it like a 'real world' problem - you might form an adhoc possy and hunt him down. Any scenario you come up with would be plenty of fun, but removing innovation is not only lazy, it's just plain un-real and un-fun.
 
Some bad player is currently in Fan Horizons in Beta Sculptoris, boosting into people whilst they land and take off. I'm not sure why anyone thinks it is amusing to do such a thing, perhaps they don't realise what it tells us about their lack of character and education. It is certain that something should be done about this sort of behavior though.

Shame this had to be my first post.

Without wanting to steal the rage from this thread, is there any chance some new player boosted whilst docking instead of deploying undercarriage?

plenty of threads and posts by players giving account of how they did just this

...back to rage
 
Is that so. That means bla bla

Probably just used to differentiate between Elite, Frontier: Elite II, and Elite: Final Frontier. (Besides which, yeah, Elite: Dangerous does have certain juicy conotations so I don't think Frontier were entirely innocent in the choice of name).

My 'dangerous' comment is, in short, bla bla bla bling bling bling bla

I don't think I've ever said I was against what the miscreant is doing - as a bounty hunter he's merely just another potential juicy bounty to me.

Yours blabla-ingly.
 
All true Cmdr Sandmann, but FD will hardly do anything. Gameplay - you know.
Since the unwashed masses gained access to the game these incidents have become regular. I take tha CoD and the the like idiotic games have now been proofed so much that griefing is neigh impossible, therefore this sorry bunch of brownholes find new horizons to make the gaming experience a rough ride.
fortunately there are not many of this explicit type.... But plenty of other types (that is no consolation , I know)
Anyway go solo, get away and go open when you are away and remember that when you upgrade to more than Cobra life in open is Hell.

Cheers Cmdr's

Is this satire?
