Stop the Murder-hobo AI 2 Second Interdictions

Elite: Runaway gets boring over time.

I used to enjoy freighter combat on trade runs, but it's just a waste of time tbh. Better to just evade the interdiction. It is one of the things I really like about carriers, you can completely eliminate interdictions and long SC runs.

I was out in CEOS last night, trying to sort out faction rep for an alt account hauler, the ship was stacking those 180 tonne delivery missions, constant interdictions, for coffee, beer. I HAVE COME A LONG WAY FOR WHATS IN YOUR HOLD! Really? Then you are an idiot.

It is the equivalent of a Tesco delivery truck getting hijacked on every store delivery. I could maybe understand if the systems in lockdown and I'm hauling toilet paper..

Think I'll stick to carrier hauling.
 
..and I hope they don't change. Those murder conda's they send after you are an amazing source of high end materials. Specially in Colonia.

Lots of ways to get materials, faster to do it on dedicated murder session (or other options) Stopping to fight some pirate for his mats always felt like a waste of time to me.

My point is not to eliminate pirate attacks, it should just make sense. Hauling Coffee, fine... hauling 700 tonnes of LTD's/Painite/CM Composites or the many other high end commodities, pirates hunt you.

It has never made sense, and has been like that for years. Remember when we used to get ganked for hauling biowaste, 'Tasty cargo!' That was years ago, the game is still like that.

No excuse for it, even if some like to collect mats. Why is an Anaconda pulling me out of warp for fish or tea?

I meant the hauling missions that send conda's only. You get a message stating the amount of enemies there will be chasing you. You can wait them out and murder them one after the other and they are a good source for stuff you cant find in Colonia, like Core Dynamic and IMP stuff.

The faff chasing you for 3 tons of biowaste dont make sense indeed, but these I leave to rot.
