Hi all,
I recently got back to Elite after a long hiatus. I took up trading to get some credits for a fairly spec'd combat ship. During all my trading runs I also took all the "source and return" missions and of course got interdicted numerous times. Getting interdicted all these times gave me a lot of "dialog" from the NPC's doing the interdictions. They got repetitive very fast so I started comming up with my own. I would love to see new and perhaps more imaginative ones than the usual 10 or so. It wouldn't be too bad if there was funny or quirky ones in there too. It's a diverse galaxy so there's bound to be a lot of different views on these messages
I've searched for a similar post on this subject but have not been able to find one. However, if one exist you are more than welcome to point me in the direction of it so we can keep this kind of dialog suggestions in the same place
See you all out there.
My suggestions:
When getting interdicted because of a mission:
- "He he, I have a contract on you!"
- "Did you miss me?"
- "Remember, it's strictly business. Hand it over!"
- "I'm terribly sorry but I have this agreement with *whom ever opposes the faction you are doing the mission for* that I should take you down and return your head on a platter"
- "Divide and conquer. I'll cut you in half and bring home the charred remains."
- "You only know me as you see me, not as I actually am (Quote from Immanuel Kant). I'm really a nice guy behind my lasers."
General interdictions:
- "Well well looky what we have here"
- "Mind sharing a bit of that cargo?"
- "Uhh, nice cargo you have there. Me want!"
- "Oh, I hope I'm not interrupting you in anything important."
- "Well hello hello"
- "Oh this reminds me of a turtle I had once. He was also very slow and easy to catch up with."
Death messages said by the AI before dying:
- "Pop goes the weasel"
- "Oh !"
- "Well there goes the college fund"
- "Fortunately I like teddy bears"
Death messages said by the AI as attack messages:
- "Please don't take this the wrong way but - DIE!!"
- "Simon says "DIE"!"
- "Would you please just die already?"
- "Come on, die, I don't have the funds for more ammo otherwise"
- "Just think of puppies and kittens, then it won't hurt as much"
