PvP Groups claiming systems

Does anyone else find it a little contradictory that its mainly core systems that are suffering from this. Would have thought these systems should be more than able to assert their own sovereignty.

Thats the problem with a game designed with little pvp in mind, they haven't thought ahead, with the outcome being poor for all involved.
 
Imagine you're driving on the motorway to your local city and some guy drives past with a sign saying "this city is mine, please leave"

how are you going to react?
 
After I finish laughing my rear end off? I go into the solo or private group lane and laugh at the pewpewers as I pass 'em by while they're in the other lane and go on into town and do my bidness. They've got their little park to play in and I've got mine--everyone's happy.

Yeah I guess.. I just like playing open. Just feels wrong when your passing through [Insert core system] and get told 'Our system, get out'. I keep wanting an interdictor to turn up spamming local with 'Respect my authoritay!'

And no I dont want this an Eve vs Elite discussion. I'm well aware of how Eve handled things.

Either way I'm not changing how I play or where I go ;)

Nothing at all wrong with that--that's why we're playing this game, to have fun. :) It's all good. :)

Its one of the few interesting things happening in the game at the moment.

I guess it all depends on how scary he looks and what weaponry he is carrying.

"These CMDRs are confused. EVE is over there ->"

Nah, this is exactly the kind of behaviour we should expect from a persistent universe, actions like this almost always bring about a REaction and this is what is going to bring the universe to life. The way that the multi works now though I doubt it would even support a reliable 5 on 5 combat situation let alone something significant. The universe is big enough that you can avoid systems or areas that are being claimed by hostile player forces. I just hope that FD embrace it like CCP did and not suppress it like Blizzard did by killing off open world mass pvp. Of course, solo mode renders it all obsolete so you can always use that to go anywhere you like.

I can claim that I'm the new messiah but that doesn't make me one. Similar, PvP groups can claim they took over the universe and won, but you will likely not even see them if you visit those systems :)
 
Not seen any of these groups, and if they do tell me to leave a system I will laugh at them and carry on doing my thing.

Yeah I see what your saying, one group of people having a bit of fun, in one of 400 billion systems really ruins ones day. Afterall, trading profits should never be interrupted hey. :/

And since someone brought up EVE.. Other than the dry spreadsheet gameplay, whats wrong with it? Lots of interesting emergent gameplay and player created content. Surely it beats drilling out meaningless trade routes and facerolling ones way to the best ships..

Let me ask though.. Having got that Anaconda, fully kitted out with billions in the bank.. What now? :rolleyes: I wouldn't stress too much I think its pretty clear at this stage that Frontier is all about wrapping everyone in cotton wool and making them feel like special snowflakes. ugh!

They will be sorry when FD step up police response and lockdown conditions.

Sooner or later the caps will be free roaming and police presence will ne determined by player activity. So of alot of players do bad things then eventually they will get messed up if they hang around.

Which system? Do tell. I'll pay them a visit and bore them with an unnecessarily long talk on the instancing system in Elite and remind them that while they might think they "own" the system hundreds of other players are passing them by without even noticing they're there at all.

Then shoot at them while screaming "Get Orf My Laaand!"

That database error seems to have made a mess of my last post. :(
