What would happen if we take shields away?

[Fletcher]

Dragon has a point, more or less. Everything would not necessiarily burn up, but raidiation fields, mines, gas pockets, and ll the other hazards of space would be unbarable. Besides, eventhough Freelancer dosent offer the option of pilot damage, in RP if you fly through radiation w/o a shield, you'll fry or die shortly there after of raidiation sickness.

Dragon does have a point, but they wouldn't burn up. It would just be less economical, like thicker hulls, more lead in the hull to shield (not fully) from radiation and radiation medical treatments before flight.

There may be no pilot damage, and illness to pilots in 'reality' in here. But it has been stated before, reality + Freelancer = Community does not compute.
