Nah Corsairs are real tough mf's who have one of the most dangerous intiation rites in all Sirius, traveling unshielded to Malvada cloud to pick up artifacts and survive keepers and radiation... When hunger strikes they even resort to eating human flesh, so they are basicly what one would call "Hispanic Gangsters"... Their ships are big and bulky, their weapons are very powerful, even their light fighters are heavily armored... Powersupplies built to sustain non-sissines.
The players who play them are mostly sissies, I don't know why, must be becouse they have beautiful cap ships, that attract the missguided or their great stats that look good in the readme file... Mostly they are nobs, much like I was when i started out. I had played the game for 3 days, single player first and then I was allready on my way to become a corsair, when I entered Discovery... There's really nothing to it.. Great name, great ships, great looks,...
Only recently i've found out that Outcast players are much more tough in general, but that does not mean some Corsairs arn't the toughest of them all... So if an Ally comes bossing you around on your turf, make a scene, and punish him, rough him up a little, take out his turrets, don't kill him thou. Teach him a lesson!
What's the 'Who's toughest' has to do with this thread?
Also, are you talking about indies or factions? I mean, your post lacks the point, really.
I'm not hurt by it (since I am a Corsair), I just don't understand it at all.
How can someone with better ships and weapons be more tougher then ones who try to be good in sucky ships with sucky weapons?
I don't know if you are aware, but Titan is a brick.
And I really am glad when I see 5-8 Titans flying around Crete.
In my view, those who select easier way (better ships + better weapons) can't be tougher then those who try hard to compensate their sucky tech with their 'potential skill'.
But again, what's that got to do with this thread?
The "Corsairs vs Outcast" thread existed more then once, and it never ended well.
I know many good people on both sides, as well as fair players. There are always exceptions, of course.
But the point is, Outcasts would be boring without Corsairs to make their life harder, and the other way 'round.
At the moment, people are not split in groups like "Oh, he's a RM player", or "Oh, he's a BAF" player.
It always goes down to Outcasts and Corsairs. Who prefers whom.
Anyhow, I find Corsairs cooler for me, as I'm sure some people find Outcasts cooler then Corsairs.
It has nothing to do with toughness.

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.
