Yeah. Really felt like fear when I got busted instantly. I didn't even realize it quick enough to feel anything but surprise.

But luckily there was tons of very active KNF to escort me the next time. Lucky me.

Yeah it's really lame how they interupt RP, but man. You get the real feeling of fear. Saw caps escorting traders, people in a panic. Felt good.

Yeah, it is really lame.
I admit, that panic thing is pretty good. Reminds me of vanilla. Nomads actually being, well, scary.

But damn I do feel like the old /l1 were basically the same thing just more time for the person to gtfo from that Nomads' guns. I mean, come on. Who the hell likes getting insta'd? Especially in the middle of some roleplay. And don't give me the excuse of 'lol move around and you don't get killed' because bigger ships can't do that as well as small ships, and it's damn annoying to dodge invisibility as a snub anyway.

Alright, making Nomads scary. Okay, I get it. Making the Nomad faction spiral down towards the hellhole the Corsairs fell into? Please don't. I can't just say that the 'Nomads aren't a faction'. It doesn't have the same feel to it as the 'Corsairs aren't a faction'.

Please make Nomads scary without making them excruciatingly annoying at the same time.

thank

Only good experience's rping with Nomads was with Rogue way back when TFG was a thing and he'd accompany on my trade runs but with alot of awesome rp to make the whole way interesting.

Most recent experience was carrying a load of artifacts only to be stopped by an Irra. An indie Wilde came by to translate for me and told me to dump them. I complied but was immediately fired upon and destroyed within seconds. Wish I took screens but I just thought. Meh, Nomads being Nomads, I'll come back when they're gone.

As one of the scary tentacle monster, we don't just go around nuking people for the hell of it. Mostly.
Usually we pick on loners or powertraders who aren't in an interaction; most of us are mature enough not to interrupt an interesting conversation for the hell of it.
The aim, as was said previously, of this change, is to make noms scary again. Now if you see a K'Hara player ingame and near you, you're going to want safety in numbers, or you're going to be really high-strung for a while. If you want to RP with us, then don't use a trader for that. Seek us out. Fly around in places that shouldn't be commonly frequented by say, anonymous silent trader #127827492834709283. There's also the fact that sometimes if we think someone is interesting, we'll take the initiative.

Hi.

Your feedback is.. a copy of all the feedback we've ever gotten.

So here's what i have for you.


If any of you have played this thing as long or longer then I have and find a problem with all this? shame on you. Go back to halo.

Dying is second nature hell being re engaged or screwed with by nabs is the only real terror this damn place has had and NOW.. NOW there's an organised force of evil murderous aliens out to spread a wave of terror.

Merry christmas.

Our id does not make our ships invulnerable. you don't see the ones who've been victorious over us posting here. Yes.. isolated smuggling or trading targets have been hit too.. that's part of the terror i want you to know we cannot be reasoned with or bought like some greasy trader or human with a political agenda..

Your politics bore us. And if you fail to prepare for us ,we will bathe in your blood.

That's the short version.

The long version.

Guys common. seriously you don't have nomads for three years using every advantage they can and the moment it's delivered i got more kudos in my pms it took and hour to clear em.

CAN we be scary without the threat of imminent death?

Are you telling me your cloak proximity warnings arent working?

are you telling me anti cloaks arent working?

Your telling me were unbalanced or.. too op in some way?

Your either not paying attention or hate you have to actually freaking PLAY this mod again.

both i will admit are your problems.

For every QQ thread? i extend this madness a week.

for every POST not in agreement i add a day to this.

Congratulations your going to have to deal with this until the new year as it stands.

But i will make it interesting. If you post a kill from a cruiser? is a day off if you post a kill from a duk? its two days.

HELL lets make it an event! someone show me how this works. 1000 khara kills we will... take a break and post our stupid *** nignog*** jibberish as usual.

I get all your reasonings. But I see no real way to defend my transports in house space even. There is not enough people to escort you. So I guess I will just have to live with getting two hour breaks whenever you guys want?

You could fly over the plane, or under it. Away from the normal places to get stopped by a pirate would likely see your chances of nom based colonoscopy reduced.

how many times have you been hit?

where you hit repeatedly? did we gank you in every system on the way of your route?

if you were please let me know as those are not the guidelines i set for for this particular reign of terror otherwise. ....perhaps the lanes aren't safe?

or take a break sure go for it.

than again if you prefer.. you can play with complete impunity without any of us bothering you again. just post in our forum section with a list of your ships and we will never interact with you again. promise.

but it better be every ship. every SINGLE ship fighter bomber bs gb IC, wilde whatever faction.

We just have enough factions that shoot people without sense. I don't want nomads to become one of them since they have the biggest potential to be just annoying.
That is all.
No need for the "We won't interact again" stuff.
What rididculous thing is that. Like you would even follow that.
I am all for more nomad attacks. But I never felt like they should be a constant presence in house cores.

I implemented the blacklist in 2012 it worked well.. some of our harshest critics merely didn't want to interact with us. and i provided a way for that.

worked well only had maybe 4 people on it. before i started adding people myself.

I know three people who will disagree about the sequence of events of that encounter.
