Questions to ADMIN

[ScornStar]

What I dont like about the cruise rules is that I find it totally illogical that a captain of any craft forgets to use the full thrust of their ship during battle except to retreat. I find that the logic that "If we remove that rule combat will go on forever" flawed. I find that it only encourages PVP.

I know if confronted I have to turn around and fight no matter what because if can't run to next system gather my homie s and come back and smack big pirate around. I have to stay gone for four or die. I, like many others would rather just fight if we have to be banned for the same amount of time anyway. Additionally I love RP this is not RP to arbitrarily ban an action that we are normally capable of. This rule is similar to some rule that another server had in terms of arbitrary nothingness. Their rule was no BOTS/BATS in PVP battles. I know it sound stupid but some how they thought that was good RP. Now even if I cant get this rule at least revise were there is some benfit to running or better yet more realism, I'll still play and I'll follow rules just so I don't get banned ever but, it hurts realism hardcore for me as I have to keep forceing myself to overlook the game board boundry.

Why not be a RP server all the way. I don't care if battle went on forever, which I doubt it. It would just have fewer deaths/ kill messages. More planning would have to go into it, and makeing enemies lightly would have to stop. I'm not saying change death rule. I'm just saying that retreat and thrust controls should not be cut off so absolutely. It does not make since for a ship that has capability not to use it in a life or death struggle.

Does anyone have an arguement that shows these rule support RP or realism? I don't think the level of realism I'm asking for would make things unplayable.

Chopper I did read what you sent thank you. I forgot I read that before they are a blur now. But, I ask is do you think this rule helps RP at all? I think if anything it make PVP more fair but fair is not real and real battle plans rarely ever make it fair for the attacked.

The SWAT team doesn't make it fair for pot heads they raid. Niether should pirates or house police and this unfairness would give the added advantage of being in a faction.

Thats another thing I hate that I can laugh in the face of cap ships in my trade vessel. I use to have a harte pounding experience when I feared capships while tradeing and ducked into the nearest asteriod field now I just fly by. I think all these rules for fairness of combat have removed realism and excitement.

Combat is not fair, RP is supposed to mimic as much real life as possible while being playable ie: we respawn playablity would go out the window if you had to make a new character after every death. But then I'd be cool with that if our ships were about a 50 times stronger and NPC didn't have uber armor.

I'm not trying to stand against the community I'm just trying to get us to stand back and realy ask our selves what we want. I see allot of disiples of RP dictateing guns and tags, and REPs. Why not have good RP accross the board?


so next time i am trusting away from two gunboats, and they start cruise engines to catch up, i just stop take screens and report them?
