Was in Sol! USS popped! !Distress Call4! INCREDIBLE!

It's awesome when that happens.

The weird thing was that even though we targeted the pirate Farragut and got the wanted scanned on it. Our Wing attacked it and then we got marked as wanted.

WE WERE TRYING TO SAVE THE FEDERAL SHIP AND THE FEDS PUT A BOUNTY ON US!!!!!!
 
So i was transitioning from Mars to Mercury (Deadalus has a nice black market facility) when i fished this USS distress call. Went in and was surprised by this Federation Class Farragut. Suddenly waves after waves of pirate ships engaged the Imperial Cutter "Lady Vashj" ... After destroying about 10 or so fighters that omni sent sound of space matter displacement happened... Another Farragut warped in and started engaging the others! I Just recalled my fighter and took these incredible Elite Dangerous moment! :D

Happens regulary but only in federal systems. Distress call thread 4 means often pirate farragut vs federal farragut ;)

But be careful, one single stray shot on the fed battlecruiser and you'll have a problem :D
They have no patience and know no pardon^^
 
This happened to me the other day, it is about as close as elite gets to emergent gameplay, but yeh, it's totally scripted. I was all 'wow, this is cool', until the second cap ship came in and started break dancing. I was like 'yeh, time to leave before that flipping fish decides to flip on me!'. lol.

Break dancing Farragut are in style man get with the times.
 
It used to be wanted and you could take it out legally (which is what you're supposed to do to save the other Farragut, if you desire to), but they broke something a while back.

I see, so they kept its faction alignment but broke its legal alignment. Good job! lol.

Yeh, it seems 50% of them are doing it. The other 50% must be too embarrassed.

It seems to me this is spot on, if you're looking for "immersion." Name any first world government on the globe, that doesn't have it's head where the sun doesn't shine. I can't imagine it would be any different in 1300 years either. :D
 
as a federal spokes men, No federal Farraguts are indestructible, we made them from relics of the past, better known as Nokia 3310.

LOL and the flight systems are based on the ZX81, those old babies crashed all the time and still work even in 3303 ;)

Those unreliable federal ships!

But I notice those rascals have SEVEN digits in their number! :eek:
 
Was thinking about this the other day and the fact I have not seen one for so long. Was wondering if they even still existed. Guess th7s answers it.
 
Not really incredible that for the n'th time I almost got killed by the Capital Class Ship's stretching/moving/rotating(?) hitbox.
 
Indeed it's awesome.

However I have a problem with pirates flying a Farragut.

It's like seeing Somali pirates piloting an Aircraft Carrier or a Nuclear Sub.

The pirates set up an ambush in a hazres behind a big asteroid. When a patrol fighter launched from the local law enforcement came close enough, they quickly shot out the canopy and replaced the pilot, then they docked at the farragut like the trojan rabbit, out popped lancelot, galahad and I...oh wait, sorry, the pirates, and commandeered it.
