NPC Amount

[Curios]

Funnily enough just a short time ago I got requests that wanted to increase firepower of all defenses to avoid things like Trident groups camping Manhattan.

Yes people can use stationary BS for defense, which is what they are meant for. If the "win"/"loose" part for you is the blue message then perhaps you should head to Connecticut or some of the tournaments.
This made me regret that I read your post, I won't do that mistake again.

Well, we have 2 ways here. People are still complaining about gank, outnumbering in fights etc, but in the same moment they hugging bases and asking for increasing they pwnforce to hug them more efficiently. Or we can remove 0.0 rule which made to keep fun income to all players.

0.0 Be excellent to one another. Consider the people around you. Keep fair play in mind. It's a game and nothing is gained, or lost, save the experience. Credits can be re-earned. Ammunition replenished. If you become infuriated step away. If you make a mistake apologize. If you wish to remain in system after you die, or after someone has moved away, simply ask.

What we are talking about when people hug a base when fighting 5 vs 2 pirates and shieldrun around bs.

Well, that's another story. SO if bases will get more power - remove that rule please because that rule applied only when lolpirate asking 15 millions from rhino.

I dunnow how encounters works. But to be short: 4 ships in one encounter. But, they coming N times with 4 ships. And you getting swarm behind you.

This made me regret that I read your post, I won't do that mistake again.

That was directed not to you nor to anyone but to situation could happen. If you want i can delete it from post. It's np. I apologies for any misunderstanding.
