Okay so the majority of this forum is lending its space to flaming PvP. People saying it's bad, people should be punished for it.
But not this thread!

Nope. This thread is for all of you to share your highlights of PvP. I'm sick of seeing complaints about Combat Logging or "waaah, griefers at x system" so I want you to share with me, through video or text, your best moment(s) involving either PvP combat or player-oriented events!

On-Limits:
PvP Combat
Open Pirating
CQC Arena

Off-limits:
B****ing about people killing CMDRs (There's enough of that already)

I'll start!

It was one of my last big personal triumphs on Xbox before moving to PC that I managed to record. I was in Wyrd when there was a dual CG going on. There wasn't anyone in SC so I decided "I'll go see what's going down in the other CG". As I was about to plot my route I get pulled by three CMDRs from Newton's Fusiliers in an FDL, Anaconda and Corvette, while I was in my own Corvette. Fancying a fight I stayed to see how much damage I could do. I have a vid here of the fight, since it was a short fight but I killed the Corvette despite overwhelming odds.

Hey! I know that FDL. ;)

Nice video. Remembered the fight clearly by the end. That Vette you killed... lol.

Wait, who were you on XBOX? I just jumped to PC as well.

I was Avvie Rayne, co founder of Killer Elite. I flew the [KE-2] Insurmountable.

And you're on PC now? Niiice. We'll have to recreate that battle when I have my vette up to speed. ;)

Well fought! And thats some tough shields you got there... how about giving me a little whiff of what you've fitted there? :D Played around with mine for far too long already and I've yet to establish the final and ultimate setup.


Other than that, on the topic at hand, I want to narrate a quick manuver I did in CQC in that ice astroid field arena. Soooo sad that I don't have a recording of it. Long story short, I was floating way above the field looking for an opportunity, then I dived down next to someone chasing and trying to kill someone, and quickly shot the chaser out, then started shooting the original target he was hunting but then I suddenly realized I started getting shot by 2 other fighters (shields ripped instantly). I immediately tried to shake them to avoid death by trying to run around a single ice-troid and then around the corners of the central building that was close by. There is some support beams area by one of the sides of that, kind of looking something close to this image that I came upon after turning around the corner.

What I did is, I turned FA off, flipped the fighter around and started pushing backwards and started shooting at my chaser(the other was gone, probably on that other target) and approx less than 2 seconds later, barely fitting the space, I made through the holes of that mess of a labirynth of beams flying backwards with FAoff. What I observed on my screen was fabolous. Imagine going very fast in a tunnel you barely fit and exiting it. Now imagine that image in reverse, the beams suddenly appearing around you and going far off your screen in a rapid speed. The commander who was chasing me didnt dare diving in through that hole and broke off :D (Which was good because I wouldnt survive a couple more shots!)

I'll be remaking the Corvette exactly as it was on Xbox so once it's finished, my signature will say so and it's statistics will be available on my Inara and respective Coriolis.

Indeed we shall! I'll be making a FAS and FDL this time around and hopefully I can bout with the best of 'em, so that means your ship shall fall to mine! Mwahahaha!
Fly safe, YOU'LL NEED IT ;) <O

I don't moan about PvP, I just find most quite dull. Typical example:

[video=youtube;0mbRMCmVMGA]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mbRMCmVMGA[/video]

Minding my own business in a very much PvE ship; pulled out of SC; ok then, lets do this! Oh, i'm not an easy gank. I'll happily fight to the death, but controlling the engagement I will win eventually (Phasing Sequence means I will chip them to 0% hull eventually). They leave. So what was the point?

Proper PvP, organised and consensual, is way more fun than the PvE ship vs PvP ship asymmetrical stuff IMO.

I prefer spontaneous combat over organised duels.. This is an open-world game afterall, not an arena shooter.

So if you pull my Cobra MK3, in your typical combat ship, what your actions be?

If you get bored from me chipping your hull down / or I jump to SC to escape, would you bother to interdict me again? (and again, and again?)


The best PvP I've had was stuff with AA, random Open-world much less so. IMO, in my experience: yours obviously differs.

Maybe this one, for the kill count.

Or maybe this one, for 1v2+1+cops.

Today, I attempted to gank an Anaconda. After three interdictions, they managed to get away to safety with 22% hull left (can't remember if high-wake or they just made it to the station).

Fast forward a couple of hours, we run in to each other again. We had a good old chinwag. They found the encounter to be fun despite being unarmed, and apparently I inspired them to get into engineering. Very nice person, very good sport.

So highlights?...Hmm, probably this one because there were two of them, they were high-ranked and had TLB and reverbs:
