Wreck Camping

[masternerdguy]

Codenames are only updated at particular times, we all know when they have been since the server restarts. (Captain obvious, but bare with me)

The natural response to wanting something valuable that only appears at set times is to wait for it. A good proportion of players want Codenames and will likely rush down to their nearest wreck once the server comes back up. Logically, to beat competition you would leave a character waiting there.

There are a few things we should point out though. Among the various RP restrictions on players looting wrecks, you can only loot a particular wreck once per character, so it's not like you are going to see the same looter there each time the server goes down. Making new characters for this purpose is bound to be tiresome. Secondly, F1'ing in space is dangerous. The only time I have done this after looting a wreck (Had to put the laptop screen down rather quickly at the time), I logged back in to find myself back in the last station I had docked. People really should be trying to dock once they loot Codenames.

I've looted a lot of wrecks, though I'd much prefer to buy them from others, which saves me time and effort that I could use in other areas of the game.

You'd be suprised what people will do to metagame, and yes this IS metagaming: you are using your OORP knowledge of these wrecks to monopolize an IRP feature. 6 mill/gun is a nice profit for 40 seconds work making character and 1 minute effort getting the gun to a station and sending it to your main.;)
