Xeno Clay Pidgeons? - Irishtiger - 04-06-2012
Guys,
Seriously. The Xenos, and many other NPC mission enemies...they should at least follow the laws of physics. If you've ever flown anything in your life, you understand the idea of G-force.
I start to shoot an NPC, and it goes from 400 to 1000 away from me in under a second. Additionally, they strafe at rates that a pilot made completely of iron would melt from.
It shouldn't take me 40 minutes to an hour to finish a mission that used to take 3 minutes to do. This is unnecessary. Can this problem be fixed? I've seen it in both Xenos and GMG so far (tried a couple of restarts). I don't see it in the Liberty Rogues.
You guys tout how there's "millions of dollars in new missions". If they take me an hour to complete at level 24, there's no point.
Thanks.

It's the low-level missions that are like that. I keep meaning to write up a problem report but keep forgetting to do ti.
Anything below 10ish skill level will dart and jump, give itself instant heals, etc. Higher level NPCs are more predictable and stable. Very frustrating for new players.

You think Xenos (Starfleas) are bad? You really do?
I dare you,
I double dare you,
try killing Corsair Legionnaire NPCs
You wish they'd be Starfleas.
Legionnaires warp
Legionnaires thrust faster than cruise

Inertial compensators - laws of physics regarding G forces no longer apply.
It's supposed to be a science fiction game, after all.

This server will not exist long if you don't get new players. What you have now is Wal-Mart. All the other servers are slowing down and their people are coming over here. Once they all lose interest, then you'll have no one. If I have to take hours to complete missions as a newbie this just isn't going to work for me. I have another concern, but I think I'll put it in another post.

Arguing with RL-phyics references won't get you far here, though - They don't apply.
If you think missions are too hard, go ask another player to help you.

We have a thread for this stuff:

Please post there. Also post the exact level of the NPCs (noted on a number on them as you select them) and the type of ship that is exhibiting this behaviour. Without that information I can't track this down.
