Here's an idea - Mímir - 03-04-2012
Hi, I have been thinking it would be awesome if Lane Hackers had access to the TLAGSNET in Liberty, either through rep/ID or through some form of expensive item. It would open up to a totally new strategy when pirating (precision strikes), it would make hackers a super valuable ally to any pirate party, and it would make hackers into... well... hackers.
What do you think?

Thought the same...didnt approved.
Btw I like the idea, it could make the pirate RP better.

This has been discussed several times, and each time the answer is no.

Because obviously, piracy in Liberty is too hard.

Well I dont really think that TLAGSNET will make it significantly easier, its just a fun way of say hitting Ageira or Universal, and them alone. It will open up to more types of piracy, but all-in-all sitting at the trade lane to the cali-ny jumpgate is a lot easier, I would reckon.
EDIT: Ok, but why is the answer NO? I mean really would it make it that much easier to be a pirate? As it is now, all you gotta do is pick a sweet spot, disrupt the lane when a fat trader passes and tax whoever you catch that way. Pirating using TLAGSNET would require much more of an effort IMO.

How does knowing the location of every trader in Liberty not make things easier?

Because you still have to intercept them, rather than sitting idle at a disrupted trade lane. You got to work for it, as opposed to just wait for traders to stumble upon you.

Fair enough, I do see that point. How about if it was a 800 million credit piece of kit? What I am asking for is not some OP boost to liberty pirates, but something to make piracy a bit more diverse. And for hackers to have the option of being hackers.

The main problem with this idea is that we'd have to find comparable, FLHookable bonuses for every other faction. Because why would the Lane Hackers NPC faction benefit from such an advantage? They already have a not so bad gunship and pretty good guns, along with advantageous base locations. So if we are going to give Hackers a nice feature like this one, we'd probably have to give other nice features to all other unlawful factions, and then to all lawful factions to balance things out.
