Hey, another thread that manages to include a bashing of Bounty Hunters. Yes! Thought I'd have a day where it mightn't happen. If people are really playing OORP to an extent that annoys you, then don't play with them.
Don't put missile turrets on that gunship. Oh wait, now no one wants to see BHG gunship spammed, so okay we'll all fly bombers. But bombers are too powerful, so its back in the barracuda for you m'boy. But then every nitwit in an unlawful craft will KoS you because,as one twerp put it, "you're our enemy, bud." Bounties? Contracts? Who cares...
Everyone wants to see BH capships bugger off to the Lonelicrons. fair enough. Then people start complaining because they move into a Order Guard system. Well, i wouldnt do it (i chased an order vessel in Minor and pulled back when within 5 k of Toledo but that's how Id do it) but I would say that maybe you could
a. mobilise the Bs and show these guys the door, which happened quickly enough when OORP Order capships started misbehaving or
b. pretend they're not there if they dont RP
c. suggest a massive overhaul of the server and rules
Oh, we're looking at c.
Quote:Bounty Hunter official factions act somewhat ignorant.
That's a pretty unfair accusation, considering there is ONE official BH faction. One. If you are gonna slate people then, please be informed first. Do you mean the unofficial BH factions? Who would they be? Tar me with that accusation? What do you want? An official faction that will police the sale of capships? Is that what you want? Join up and let's get out the bombers.
PvP is an important component of the game, so complaining about PvP whoring is a moot point at best. There WILL be fights. You WILL lose sometimes. But sometimes you will win, and everyone enjoys that.
If you're sick of BH BC's then maybe we could increase the price. Then people will buy the next most attractive ship, in terms of price and power. It's moving the problem on.
I spent a lot of time yesterday explaining to a new recruit that filling the S/D with gunships was not the direction that I want the faction to go, because how we are perceived by others in the community is important to us. Then I read more of this: a steady stream of poorly informed complaints about the i.d. and I think, well, thanks for nothing.
Things aren't that bad in game. In fact I really enjoy things as they are, mostly. There are occasional pains, but that's how things go. Nothing is ever perfect.
