' Wrote:well, i guess the idea was to make the game more challenging and not life-like. If you care to get a VHF, you should take the pains of getting them.
Yeah, that's why everyone new in Liberty takes the pains and buys a Raven Claw from Rio Grande, a ship that isn't supposed to be common and mass-produced.
' Wrote:All of the following vessels should be sold in guard systems for the respective NPC factions.
We should not be seeing any Bounty Hunters flying Liberty cap ships nor should there be non-faction members purchasing such vessels. In order to fly a Liberty Battleship ... you'd need to be friendly enough to actually have a Liberty IFF.
Independent lawfuls should be flying Civilian type vessels.
Pirates and unlawfuls should have their own equivalent vessels.
Junkers should have a variety of junked capships. We already have the recycled Rheinland Pirate Cruiser (which needs a name change ... should rename it to "Junker Cruiser" with a description explaining how they recycled it from wreckage). Would be nice to see a junked Liberty Gunboat, junked Rheinland Battleship, etc ... each of these ships would be like the original but with nerfed armor and power capabilities ... say 75% armor and power from what the original vessels have.
Zoners typically come across advanced tech stuff anyway. But their vessels should not be considered available to civilian. Civilian vessels should only be purchasable from corporate bases.
Nice idea. I'd also like to suggest removing the Hacker Gunship from Mactan ... It's sold in the Hacker Guard system, anyway. The Hacker Gunship is about the same as Raven Claw ... it's high-tech, pinnacle of development, and shouldn't get in abusive hands of tons of pirates, not to mention oorp players.
' Wrote:I agree with you about the ships Baltar, but making Zoner ships unavailable to civilians is not right. Zoners use the border world ships, those are something like advanced civilian ships. Making them unavailable will be a very big mod change and that is not so easy
Sorry, Dragon, but I've never seen a Zoner fly a BW-line ship, such as Stiletto or Sabre. They're flying the civilian line - Falcons, Eagles. Which Zoner ships do you mean, anyway?
