' Wrote:I wouldn't think the resources required to run the base would be worth the potential safety. I'd rather run the risk of dying and make more money mining.
Me too. Apparently though, some mining factions quite fancy the fact you can store and sell a large amounts of ore on the said bases, so presumably, they're prepared to finance such a base. Slapping it in the middle of a mining spot is only 1 step away.
' Wrote:Oh, well it must be my personal comfort.
NPC bases don't restrict docking when they are under attack, why should such thing happen in player bases?
Because NPC bases are balanced by being put there by developers and player bases are not?
' Wrote:Scenario: Trader is fleeing from pirates.
Trader dodges until he gets to a base. Trader docks. Trader is safe.
Same scenario with this moronic rule:
Trader dodges until he gets to a base. Pirate shoots once at the base. Trader is refused docking. Trader gets blown up. Trader later has to go back and take fuel to the base which it consumed while this bloody moronic rule allowed him to be exploded.
A braindead seacucumber would see this is not balance. Except perhaps, of course, you.
Why, thank you :ylove:
Disco must've been so damn unbalanced when player bases weren't around :unsure:
I'm not saying the solution is perfect. I still think the pros outweigh the cons. Maybe it's just me though. Maybe.
