Hello Mindark specificly, and other users who read this..
I would like to make you aware of the fact that people can log out in space to prevent being killed and looted.
This topic will serve as a discussion not for people to talk about their troubles with pirates because their brain is too small in capacity, but for Pirates who are sick'n'tired of being legally cheated on.
You are right that it is a way of cheating pirates out of ped. I am also very glad it exists and it is legally permitted. Mindark forced total pvp in space on all participants. There are people for and against, and this is a nice way to keep both sides happy.
When a pirate attacks a player, 4 out of 5 times the player presses ALT+F4 and leaves us pirates in the dark.
Ofcourse this is perfect harassement to piracy, i'm sure you can imagine all those non-pirates laughing out loud knowing a pirate will wait hours for him to log back in to kill his floating body.
you must also realise that it ís nearly impossible to know when someone will log back in.
The time for a player to log off is practically 10seconds, therefore it's impossible for us pirates to Ever attack any Quadwing, Privateer or Mothership.
We have tried what we can, but there is no way we can kill a ship within 10 seconds of the logoff timer.
Still there are lots of players who are/were unaware of this. Thank you for telling me this!
Why is this such a problem for the economy you ask me?
well.. simple..
- Pirates have no income, therefore we will run dry on peds just for playing the game.
.. paying a 100% payment with 0% return, where hunting/mining/crafting is 100%input 90%output.
Yes, basically you don't contribute to the economy either. You are basically a thief.(made possible by Mindark) It's a bit strange that thieves should complain tbh, when they do nothing to contribute to the economy, You steal from it and don't even decay (Only decay others)
- Bigger ships will never have use on crew, because pirates will never attack the ships.
if they do.. people will just log off, the ship will let itself be killed.
This is a weird assumption with new mobs just being reintroduced. I think there will be room for a lot more crew, working together to defeat space boss mobs , healing the spacecrafts. True pirates will simply move on to bigger ships as well, as will hunters of these new mobs. Daisycoldfinger already stressed the need for ships to be able to heal itself.
- Bigger ships have the oppertunity now to ask money from people who wish to be a crewmember,
Selling the dream that skills will be worth money.. *Readbottompost*
After a few days of MS skilling I am now perfectly able to craft p4a pistols. It would have cost me a fortune to do that the old way. So while the skills may not be worth ped, they are worth a lot for an avatar who wishes to craft his own gear
- There will never be real job oppertunties in space which noobs could work towards too.. because there is no RISK IN SPACE!!
!!!!!!!!Space is 100% RISK FREE!!!!!!!!!
we might aswell just label it non pvp.
Money is made by Motherships while we speak, jobs are carried out. Space taxi, skill repairers, sk-20 repairers for ped, escorts you name it, it's happening right now.
99% of the players on this forum will troll on this topic,
i hope the people with an actual brain will see this topic for the truth that it is..
Space has to CHANGE!
*The promise that vehicle repair skills will be worth a lot of money is a lie!
Tons of players train vehicle repairing right now since it's cheap as fuck.. the skills value will be worth same as Rifle skills.. TOTALLY SHIT!!!* See my comment above.
