Shield of Justice

[viper666]

Imagine you have reached the rank of King with AL Duval. You are hauling hundreds of tons, of supplies for her glorious empire, each and every week. You are frequenting Haz Res sites to clear out the scum, and you get this.... "Another ship, another useless spacer, get out of my way." Yes, it's another of those shield of justice plonkers, that do NOTHING, except scan ships, over and over and over again.

Well for one of them, last night was his/her last snide remark. Poxy little Eagle versus Chieftain on full boost was a one hit one kill affair. Sure I lost 20 merits, but man it was worth it. Didn't even get a bounty, and the remaining six so called 'Shield of Justice's' did nothing.

All of these power play muppets are a waste of server bandwidth.

"My children go hungry tonight...."

Yes, and also fatherless

Yes, that's another classic. The trash talk in this game is really poor. Sidewinder pirate "How do you fools make a living." Sound of multi-cannons for one second. "Like that idiot."

If only they actually had teeth and did something useful. Even defector PP NPCs have no interdictor and just loop round you.

Kill 'em all!!!
(apart from the King's crew, of course )

Now I'd kind of like to name a bounty hunting corvette the Natural Selection. Not sure why I never thought of that one before.

You're just enjoying it wrongly, every time I find myself in this situation I am so engrossed by the experience that I don't notice the cottonmouth I get from flying mouth wide open!

The really poor comm chatter has to be corny on purpose, otherwise there's no excuse.

It appears to me that someone at FD, if they were let loose, could come up with better lines. How hard can it be to re-write the stuff?

As to the NPC lemmings that want your tasty cargo, there's got to be a way, once they realize they're outgunned, to have them say something like "DO NOT FIRE, leaving system immediately, FSD engage!" That would be more realistic.

As to the "Shield of Justice" crew, their comments indicate that they're crooks, all on the make and take. FD should have a script that allowed some of these thieves be tagged wanted and we should be able to cull them.

I know what you mean... they are also always loitering in large numbers in Haz RES, taking up valuable instance-space which should be filled with pirates instead of worthless idiots.

OP, I think Frontier miss-spelled it. I think they're supposed to be the "Shield of Just Us" Elite-ists.
