StarPorts are attack able?

Shizuka · Jan 31, 2015

So, i was near a star port and target it and noticed that it has a % of hull and shields,
it is posible to destroy one? and if does, what happends with the people who logged out there?

Give it a go, see what happens. I suggest you check you have enough money to re-buy your ship first, though.

You can attack it if you want to, but it's the same punishment as parking violations. You can't pop it though. It's too big. Ima steal an example I read a while back, about trying to destroy Manhattan with a fighter jet.

I've seem some of them with 0% shield and hull, so I don't think they will blow up. But they will put bounty on you and shoot back.

I'm sure you can attack them. The real question is whether you can attack them and survive. (Answer: you can't.)

But let say, I gather 20 ppl, with anacondas, Im sure someone will survive to see the end.

Will be cool that u can disable stations like that, for example, 20 empire guys going to a starport on the federation, and some ppl of the feds trying to defend.

We'll all form a huge, angry gang...and come and find you!

Yes you can attack star ports. Only in open mode, as long as you can get 5 people to watch.

I would need multiple W-61's (on each weapons station, save the Sidewinders) to do the entire island. Even if you just want the lower island, 470 ktns really isn't a guarantee...

Additional: Stations may have nuclear missiles. OOPS.
