Lack of role-play on server

For example, keeping with the Xeno, he can talk about the reasons why he is doing what he is doing, like, "Your company is employing robots sir." "Trader replies" "Get that changed Or I will make your day worse for you" etc etc etc.. Doesn't have to go in great detail, but its better then, "You are enemy, die."

It gets boring after when time after time trying to explain stuff like that while the majority of traders say nothing and spam the cruise key.

My own thinking is that its too easy to be a pirate, so we have a lot of ungrounded combat from them and also from the lawfuls that have to engage the pirates quickly or else the pirate just cruises away. The threshold is just very low for the amount of power at hand. Freelancers should not have access to gunboats or bombers or large cargo ships. Join a faction where there is hope of some guidance if you want more power.

It wouldn't be easy to be a pirate if traders stopped making it easy. A little common sense and a good choice of transport/loadout and you become almost unstoppable to any individuals that try to pirate you. Groups are a different story but that seems to happen very rarely excluding in California, and those people get killed by about 38482 lawful ships within a few minutes.

I agree with Freelancers not having access to gunboats though, a well equipped and piloted transport can be more than a match for a bomber (considering your primary goal is survival not killing, both are easily doable though) but you can't hope to compete with a well armoured gunboat.
