Hello,

Why all the news on Yaren base / Omicron Delta , are talking about Corsairs? While the base belong to the Core
as if this news file is located in Yaren by mistake while it should be located on Planet Crete bar ...

The base entry needs to be updated. I'm actually working on new infocards/news to submit as an effort to scrub out the remaining Corsair stuff. It's also weird how they have Corsair uniforms.

Sairs should not have been removed from Delta.
It was a gameplay-wise bad move.

Tbh I sort of agree, or at least there was potential for them to be essential if the mining field got activated. Although I don't see why they can't just base off the Freeport, or raid Delta via Kappa/Gamma which is what they did originally anyway.

Simple solution would be to just place a dockable Murmillo/Legate somewhere in the ice fields of south Delta to re-invigorate Corsair activity in the region.

Some wise guy will write angry post to Zoners in case 1.
And 2 systems of cruising? This is 2016. It's not happening. Let's be real (yes, there is self-critizism there).

The dockable BS would be preferrable to Freeport.
I have ships on the Freeport, but if you undock there, it's often this moment when you go: "Oh F........ yeeeee...." when you undock into the hostile inhabitants from a neutral base. Big Grin

I know part of the playerbase is getting more and more lazy recently, but that lazy? :|

What will be next, demand to have base in every single system in whole ZOI?

On a ragebreak. Or ragequit. Time will tell.

Murm could work, though it'd be better to have a base that can house caps as the Omicrons are more of a cap-orientated enviroment. Although would Corsairs have a reason for so quickly darting back into Delta? Would it be a useful allocation of resources? Wouldn't the AI prove to be a problem in Kappa?

I still think the Freeport would be a better alternative without cluttering up the system though. 9/10 Core uses the Freeport more than Yaren to RV for raids, and we almost never see hostile ships waiting to jump on us. Or at the least, we'll have the courtesy for the other side to pick up in numbers before fighting breaks out in those rare occurances. I do think this is also why NFZs and FP Laws are a flawed concept though. System design isn't done with player RP constructs in mind. Besides, a Zoner whines about Corsairs at the Freeport - would that be wise?

Anyway, at the end of the day it could just be a player problem. A 2 system distance isn't that large. That's what Core had to traverse (until the recent layout chagnes, which have made this difficult) to raid Mu from Delta and it was no issue. Even though we had a base in Capetown we honestly barely used it for incursions into Order space (it was more of a supply depot for remains farmers). Order and Nomads, until recently, as well as AI and Outcasts don't have bases in Omicron Delta yet have/had still frequented the system for activity. I do also blame the lack of natural ambient activity in the Omicrons, as it boils down to the majority activity being geneated via "X IN OMICRON Y LOG" being yelled in skype echats. And stupidly Corsairs, who are also a piracy faction, have almost nothing worthwhile to pirate in the Omicrons. There's no decent trade activity there (which is what the Omicrons really need, and that sneaky Luneburg>Rho shortcut allows traders to circumvent all of the Omicrons also), which means there's not really any opperuntities for piracy.

Both inRPly and ooRPly, Corsairs haven't been removed from Delta. Their presence is just less than what it used to be, both due to inRP and perhaps ooRP factors.
