Re: An official topic that our community needs to have a say on

I don't know why you quoted me - all I wanted was some sort of rationale behined the statement that PvP gaming is the minority. I'm not really qualified to assert whether Elite is primarily a PvP or PvE game. Having said that - if I'd been a FD developer, I'd have pushed the PvP element too. I don't...

Re: Have you seen the news ?

Yea, the first day I bought this game I automatically went for Open. Mistake. Within the first two hours of playing I was griefed-- sorry "my contributions were equalized" by assho-- sorry PvP'ers 6 times. Every single time I was contributing by having 0 cargo, being in a Sidewinder, and ...

Re: What's wrong with the AI?

It's not happened to me for a few weeks, but it has definitely happened before.

And today, I've been interdicted three times by NPCs demanding I hand over my cargo (I'm in a vulture with no cargo space) and they went hostile the instant their scan finished.

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

For bountyhunters: Divide your prey with a clean cut of lasers, subtract the space police and multiply your profits with KWS ... stop to watch them enemies explode. This gives you an amount of fun per hour :D Yeah - I should maybe have mentioned that I've abandoned the trade grind for RES farming. ...

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

...dunno if that's good or bad for 220t and only one jump... The accepted measure for trading performance seems to be profit per tonne of cargo space per hour. The reason it's not per tonne of cargo is the rares trading - you are unlikely to have a full hold, and empty space is wasted profit. Do at...

Re: Group policy updated.

A note to all PvE pilots - whenever you get a hollow triangle on your scanner, that's the time to start your video capture. Get the commander's name on your screen too. Waiting for the "Your ship was destroyed by CMDR xxx" is not enough, because they may just take out your drives and leave...

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

My favorite hunting ground, a RES near my home system, is no longer "working as intended" ... I'm enemy to one faction, so they send out wings of small ships (Sideys, Eagles, Adders) to hunt me and only few pirates show up. This results in me defending myself more often than actually hunt...

Re: An official topic that our community needs to have a say on

I don't get it. If it's not a "fact" but an "opinion" - why do FD need to take any notice of it at all? I'm not being deliberately diificult. There's a whole forum over there ---> of people who think FD need to do it the way the poster things it should be done. I see this as some...
