If it is wise, you...
... get what you want
... (in a good case) you get good rp back
If it is not wise, you...
... get a running trader
... who never said a word to you
... and who depending on skill, ship class and armor, you will not even blue message
... will still likely get a blue message and the "good feeling" to have killed a "silent powertrader".
If someone says "drop all cargo", I fight and run. It's a terrorist demand in my eyes, IF the pirate cannot carry all the cargo.
Just make a demand that does not cause more harm than necessary and you will find that people respond well to real piracy play. Be an ass, and you will be treated like one. It's really that easy.
' Wrote:I just think it doesn't make sense that you can shoot the cargo you just dropped. To me, it's just a problem with the game mechanics. I'm not talking about 10 seconds, just 1 second.
Also, why do you complain that they cannot defend against gunboats or bombers? If you destroy the loot you are as good as dead to them:P
I just don't like traders who goes "Just shoot me, it's easier instead of flying back", makes 0 sense, and well.
I don't know about you, It's been at least a year since I last traded or pirated. So, I think my comments are not biased based on any of the two characters involved. But seems you are a bit biased on your comments:P
It's not a problem with game mechanics. You definitely can blow up your cargo. Hell, you can even have AM-charges planted into cargo bay by your company, exactly for such cases.
