' Wrote:In my opinion, that's absolutely right, but the players should be the planet's defenses. Not the NPCs.
EDIT: Well, another thing. Ever accidentally splash damage a friendly with a CD or torp? Not fun, and really annoying. Making NPC patrols stronger would only increase the irritation levels.
Yes I have, but I find it more annoying to be stuck in a Wraith, alone with no backup against two pirate gunboats outside of New Berlin with 3 battleships sitting near by not doing much of anything.
