PETITION: Nerf NPCs

[Derkylos]

As for NPC's stopping you from pursuing a smuggler, as long as that was in an area that was supposed to be filled with those NPC's, like a cloud or field who's infocard says something about lots of pirates then i think it is great, it's exactly what should happen given the RP situation.

But they don't, they spawn all over the place, next to New Berlin, attacking the planet in Hamburg...tough defences should be restricted to the locations where, in RP, it is tough to enter if you are a hostile. Not in "empty" space, and certainly not next to a friendly base.

@anyone that cant get away from NPC's without TCD's while flying transports - I can get away from The Wilde in S-13 while flying a transport and they have TCD's, they have never killed me, despite the very high power of their weapons. I really dont understand how you cant get away from them, I dunno, perhaps I am ignorant, if this is the case I would appreciate a more detailed explanation.

And what if a trader is dropped out of a lane by a player pirate and immediately encounters a couple of wings of hostile NPCs dropping his shield? Trader is not gonna be fleeing from them, as the player pirate wishes to conduct his RP session, pirating the trader. The trader is also not gonna be killing them, as that indicates hostile intent to the pirate. Way to kill pirating RP to "2mordai" "Ok".

@Derkylos
So you are saying that it was very hard to get a BH Dessie through Gamma, and it should not be hard? I think it should be pretty difficult, I think RP dictates it should be pretty difficult.

Please read again, it was in Omega-15, which contains a grand total of zero Corsair bases, one Bounty Hunter base and one Rheinland Military base...yet I encountered some 8 Corsairs, zero Bounty Hunters and zero RM. I did not actually enter Gamma with it.
