I agree with you, it is not fair that there are ways to cheat that fully impact another persons time and effort. I would point out that if there were someone that cheats in Open, you would not know it in Mobius or Solo, since you would never know they were cheating. Yet they could have a large impact on your gameplay.
A limitless shield would not be apparent, because there is no PvP...but the player could safely cheat in a CZ or Community Goal away from prying eyes. Meaning your contributions would be less than theirs.
Ultimately, controlling cheating isn't a benefit to one mode or another...it is beneficial to all players in the game regardless where they play.
I play solo because there is no option for not playing pvp. if I could click to not be in pvp( meaning all the non pirates ) then I could live in open and even like it. the pirates I understand. the ship ramers et who just like killing other players for whatever reason I do not like. this I play solo. if things stay the same I will stay in solo. if they change to let me opt out of all pvp other than pirates then I will go back to open. usually I ignore these posts and their posties but frelt this one might be worth it. shrug. flame away :/
Mobius-life changing product. Try it out today !!
Don't worry: most likely this thread will go the same way every other open vs solo thread has gone before and be merged with threadzilla in no time...
no need to put on the flame proof suit.
so far i didn't even catch a sunburn...
just don't let 'em get you in a bad moment resulting in moderator interaction
Before this one gets locked as well I'll just add my two cents here (which have inevitably been added a million times before but whatever, add this to the pile):
Until the criminal system gets reworked soon I don't really much the point subjecting myself to psychopathic murderers in FDL's interdicting, and just shooting. No response to hails, no willingness to add to the experience. For lack of a better term: the DayZ crowd.
And sometimes you just wanna play euro truck simulator in space and spend an hour or two listening to podcasts, trading.
I used to go open to pvp or even pirate (more for the RP experience since piracy sadly is kind of awful pay all things considered, selling a few dozen tons of stolen goods at best isnt really what I call a payday) in anarchy systems, but lately people are more likely to just take the inconsequential bounty for blasting T6's in systems with something that's supposed to be a 'police force' instead of actually fighting something that shoots back. Disgraceful.
When it comes to community goals I pretty much stopped trying to do them in open, seems like a lot of people are more interested in hunting players in those than to actually progress. Not condemning that, fully viable, just not what I'm personally after.
I prefer to have the only combat option that actually has a chance of paying decent money not to be halted by pvp.
