I actually took my Corsair to Liberty today, right to NY up near Planet Manhatten.
Was there as reason for doing it?
No, not really, other than the server was quiet, not many people in the places I was going to have to pass through to get where I wanted to go and I wanted to see if I could do it.
My 'RP reason' for if I ran into people, was my Corsair was on holiday. Too bad about where he picked to go.
Got there, took some 'photographs' along the way, docked at three Junkers bases along the way (I'm *almost* neutral to them and the ID card doesn't say they are enemies to me.) just because they were the *only* places I could dock at along the way and then went back the short way, via Alaska, Minor. Stopped at Yaren for the day.
In that whole trip I 'spoke' with FOUR people in total.
I reckon I was in NY for maybe an hour, not long in the scheme of things, but more than enough time for a group of LN to come looking for me, if I had of made my presence know by being a nuisance.
Had a run in with a LN (npc) Battleship patrol, but was fortunate enough to be in cruise and even tho they CD'd me, when I dropped out I was far enough away to avoid being killed.
A quick dock back at Rochester (Junkers Base) for repairs and I was out of there.
For the record, my Corsair is an Indy. Flies a cruiser, not a Lolcruiser, just a cruiser.
