There is definitely something wrong...Or maybe the game, as I have frequently said just plain kin hates me.....
I am being hit with some serious shite......Not lost a ship yet...but it's only a matter of time.....
I too have had the one you describe Pembroke.......Shields down and canopy gone in no time......Just managed to get out of that one....
Other night I was getting hit with something that took my weapons modules virtually out.....Still managed to get the geezer.......Let the shields get nearly up and back into SC only to get interdicted again almost immediately......Lucky this knob was mostly harmless with no shields.......So in a somewhat elongated fashion I took him out and then finally got to the station......
I have also been fired on twice by pirates whilst going through the toaster rack to dock.....
I've had Sys Auth ships fly in when I have been interdicted and just sit back and watch.....
And because I'm now carrying loads of engineers crap that *Might* come in handy the interdictions are more frequent....
Getting attacked by "Clean" ships that put up a good fight and are worth a massive 300Cr....
I'm one chemical processor short.....Can I find any.....Can I fook...Everything but....2 hours tonight....Not one....
They might as well be asking for rocking horse shit.......Probably would have more chance of finding that.....
And don't get me started on having to mine and that 200 tons of brandy crap.....
I'm not sure I like this game any more......
*Edit*
And for all those people that say Elite just got dangerous....
Bollocks......
Elite just got Fucking stupid.....
