My new character

[Caedes]

Alright.

I have an independant Bounty Hunter in a gunboat. It's ok though because I'm an awful pilot and get great big lag spikes. So I'm equal to... a VHF.

I was thinking of getting a BH battleship to fly around Delta mainly, shooting up Nomads and taking all the biomatter to Cambridge (with a BPA license, of course) I will only fight Nomad NPCs and of course, defend myself if players attack. I will probably try to hunt bounties (if they're in Cruisers or Battleships) but otherwise, I'll be a nomad hunter.

I want to do this mainly because I rarely see RP in Delta, Minor or Kappa when I'm flying around in my Order character and I want to try and add some.

I will get the Battleship regardless of your opinions (it's not breaking any rules), I just want to know what your opinions of this will be. Actually, if enough of you hate me for it, I might just get a Battlecruiser. They can still take out NPC Nomad Battleships, right?

Dont do it

1. many caps are revised in 4.85 and can happen you will be unable to use your ship after release

2. you'll become bored after few hours = 750m loss

3. there is not enough work (bounties) bor BS without whoring fighters and gunships

Why would we hate you for this?

The ship means nothing, nor does the ID. It's how you use it.
You appear to be trying to use it properly and in a way that won't harm other's gameplay, sounds like a good example for us all to follow.
Come 4.85 you will need a guard ID for the large capital ships I believe. You will still be able to fly in the Omicrons etc anyway.


All in all, good luck with it.

Wait on the battleship until 4.85; you'll probably have to rebuy it anyway because of, I believe, powerplant changes, so you may as well save a bit of money and do it later.

Nothing wrong with the idea, though.

Seems fine.

Buy it after 4.85.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
