It is pretty easy to master PVE - PVP on the other hand will be far different... I suppose the only way to learn is to try it, just make sure you have enough credit for the rebuys!!...
See, THAT's why I don't play Open.

This is what I was looking for. I was doing 400 away from him (what metric is that? m/s?) and getting reamed. You're right I probably have a badly fitted ship. I submitted immediately and hailed him, but hey ho. Next time I'll just run.
THIS is why I don't do open. People like this populate it, and life is too short to be associating with such intolerance.
Out of interest, where and when do you play?
I've played exclusively in Open, but feel I might as well play Solo. I've never left inhabited space - I've been in and around Sol, Achenar, Alioth and Founder's world and various places in between and I rarely see any other CMDRs.
On a few occasions at a RES or Nav beacon I've hunted with other CMDRs - but I've never been attacked or interdicted by one (though, at one RES another CMDR actually thanked me for not attacking him - he must have had some bad experiences!)
Just curious...

But, making people like that cry and whinge and RAEG is deliciousness in and of itself. Run into a wing of 4 pvp-Pro-Bro Vultures in Open and sit back and laugh as you watch themselves shoot each other - because the players are absolutely clueless. It is hilarious. And when you are finished playing with them, dissolve the instance - and watch the RAEG grow to epic levels.
That's what I'm finding out, and honestly, why I tried open. In solo I don't fear Anacondas and I thought that can't be right. Seems I was.
so you want a perfectly safe Galaxy to play in then? ain't gonna happen mate.
Thank you! It's a good, when in open play much less players which dreaming about safe space
Let's do open play more adventurous and dangerous!I was at Almar? Admar? something like that, where the CG just ended. I can only play a few hours every few days. I played Solo from the start because I'm an old school Elite fan and though I've played MMO's before like WoW and Eve I never bothered with open because of my time restrictions.
It's trivially easy. You versus my routing table. You are not going to win that one
I'm just curious how a vulture caught and killed your viper.
Unfriendly part of space? Your in a bad streak of luck that day I believe. Yes some players wanna be psycho in game.
Let them be whoever they really are inside.
Yeah and that^ you were much faster didn't you run the moment he interdicts you? Didn't you summit the interdiction
and pull off immediately? Really you need to know your ship... too.

I'm too lazy to watch it in real-time so I DVR it.
Well, me too but there y'go. Reckon I'll post my setup and let the pvp'ers rip it to bits.
Don't forget the forum ignore list. That will also save you a load of hassle
This CMDR gets it. o7
I submitted, but didn't run immediately. Tried to engage him on chat and then ran because while I was typing my shields were gone.
lol, so true, one day NPC's may be close to a human but that day is still a long way into the future.
What I find has worked is submit, look at what you are facing, unless it is a inferior ship, hit boost - full throttle until you can high tail it out of there..
Four encounters with unpredictable ships that could actually do me harm, all in the space on one hour...
THAT's why I play Open.
I find that whenever people try to dismiss something on behalf of other people with something analogous to "no one cares," they're almost always wrong. And rude. And a big meanie-headed stupid pants that secretly wants attention from people but is too deluded and foolish to admit it to themselves, much less other people.
Anyway, OP, I feel your pain. Have you ever played a little game called DayZ? Griefing people is a standard playstyle in that game. Have a gun? shoot everything you see. Don't have a gun? Find someone with a gun and punch them till you have a gun. It hardens you a bit, if nothing else.
At least with Elite, you have the entire galaxy to hide in, even if it's filled with camp-able choke points.
