Unrealistic silly deaths

My latest 'silly death' was when I shot into the space station to avoid them scanning my stolen silver which I did and was feeling rather smug when I was rudely informed I'd forgotten to ask for docking clearance and was given a very short amount of time to get back out again. As you know in an Adder turning around is practically pointless so I was blown up before I even got back to the entrance. Now that would have been extremely annoying but I still had enough money saved up to get a Viper shortly after so it didnt turn out too badly in the end.

5. Slammed into space station at slooow speed
6. Canopy breached instantly by anaconda
7. Killed instantly by plasma cannon
8. Overheat while FSD was charging
9. No Docking Clearance
10. Space station "rotated" into me
11. Collided with Imperial Clipper
12. Blocked by heavy transport ship exiting while another heavy transport was entering, got warning

Gee... I don't feel like playing this game anymore, too lazy to dock at space station to repair and pay off bounty

TL : DR

"Game is too hard, I quit!"

For the record I support all of these things as staying just the way they are, OP should learn to adapt or move along. These things mentioned are in fact what keeps the game as somewhat realistic and immersive.

If you can't figure out that you are not supposed to shoot cops or ram into stations or dock without clearance I can't help you.

I honestly hope you find something easier for you to play that you enjoy.
 
Collisions are so much more forgiving now than throughout testing. So much. Bumping into anything used to be instant death, just insanity.

Still, I died twice today in combat zones, getting rammed by Pythons both times. My insurance on the Battle Cobra is around 300K, so I lost 600K and of course many 10's of thousands in Combat Bonds.

But, that's the nature of combat. You go into a hairball like that and things can get nasty. It's fun as hell, but every once in a while things just go wrong. You get rammed, or get greedy and go for "one more kill," or get the attention of 3-4 NPCs all at once, etc.

I'm going right back in next time I play. Can't wait!
 
1. Got rammed
2. Got wanted because silly fed popped in the line of my beam laser ***** Shoot carefully
3. Got wanted for shooting at a wanted anaconda ***** Check factions
4. No idea how... Got killed by Anaconda in 5 seconds ***** Plasma FTW
5. Slammed into space station at slooow speed ***** I slammed into station dock but got 0 dmg
6. Canopy breached instantly by anaconda ***** Move/rotate/manouver
7. Killed instantly by plasma cannon ***** Move from forward arc, dont stop moving
8. Overheat while FSD was charging ***** Dont get caught by mass of a star
9. No Docking Clearance ***** Be patient, log off, try Solo mode docking
10. Space station "rotated" into me ***** Why are you so close to it at all?
11. Collided with Imperial Clipper ***** Dunno :/
12. Blocked by heavy transport ship exiting while another heavy transport was entering, got warning ***** Be a badass and ram em :D

Think about what is the problem? You or the Game... Seems its just you.

If i crash into a car while trying to park, i would say "why is this here? it so unrealistic" :D
Another tip for you for real life: Dont block a hit with your face...
If you dont get a kick in your a**, you pray for it.

funy btw

You missed out accidentally boosting into the wall inside the station. Might as well go for the full set!! :D
