Can't you just get rid of the Nomad Ships?

[Victor]

The Wild are only Rheinland Military pilots. But Wild or just Nomad-infested, RP'ing theim in-game doesn't differ from the normal humans anyway.

No, I remember that there was a specific reason why you cannot create a character for The Wild... just can't remember it, though...

The wild went crazy when the first nomad invasion flopped.

A nomad infested human might be able to communicate with other nomads, would tend to avoid the order and their anti nomad cause, but not engage them, ship nomads to key areas where they could spread such as new berlin and manhattan" and maybe be antagonistic to companies with their fingers in nomad research, like cryer, samura, zoners at Ames, and liberty forces.

It really is the subtle things.

Leave 'em in. Just fix their blasted hitboxes.

I can ignore the players who don't RP responsibly with them. I'd rather just grit my teeth and look the other way than screw things for people who legitimately fly Nomad ships.

Just to update, this player is still in Theata, but is now using a Phantom ID, I dont know how you get it, but I cant imagine you can get it without leaving theata, so I dont know what is going on with this player.

i was there, too today. the battleship name was felhunter ( i hope its no unspoken rule to never name a player ) we had quite a discussion about whats in roleplay and out of roleplay. and it turned out ( to me ) that he had no understanding of it whatsoever.

- he said he wouldn t want to leave theta - cause it took him 30 min to fly though gamma asteroids ( i do understand that one on a out-of-roleplay basis, but .... well, in terms of roleplay, a weak argument )
- he put his ship into the foreground of his gameplay before his role. ("that ship cost me 400mio, of course i am a nomad") thats no real quote - but thats how it sounded.
- he liked to fly that ship, cause he liked the stats, rather than the role that is linked to it.

it was suggested to him to leave for the pvp server if stats and "owning" others was so important - which he answered with "i can t log in there" ( no comment ... )

what concerns me is - he was very resistant to any attempt to roleplay. ( and i think he had no idea how to roleplay that nomad battleship at all ) - but he is lvl 81 - saved up over 400mio + at least 75 mio, cause he had 3 heavy mortars mounted ( which are REALLY out of roleplay on a nomad ship, cause they are ORDER WEAPONS.. as far as i know ) he was on the server for quite some time - even if you ignore most roleplay, you get a good general idea of how it works when you safe up 400 mio.

*** unless you do the tau - 1 trade route *** ( i know i pointed out how much i hate that one )

i didn t see any trace of "responsibility" that comes with buying such a ship. -

ps: i was quite shocked about [aw], too btw. - instead of opening fire AT ONCE. they went into a friendly chat - about it.. not what i expect a guardian of theta to act when a nomad battleship pops up at freeport 9. ( just a sidenote - and yes, since i m a rather independant zoner, i don t approve what AW is doing .. in a very roleplayish way of course :laugh:

Maybe in the next mod Igiss can make these ships only sold at a nomad base. Which of course will extremely hard to get the right rep, and if you do... you will be hostile to everyone (if it is even possible)

[BULLDOGNK]

Ok so mabye leave the fighter, but since the community seems to be against the ID of a Nomad player faction, why not just take the buyable nomad ships out of the game. They seem to be irresistable to players who just want to mess things up. I roll into theata today to see a Nomad BS pirating outside of Freeport 9 with a freelancer ID at level 81. Every new player wants to get one, and there is currently no way to Role play Nomads, so why not just eleminate the temptation, or change the price so it's prohibitivly expenseive. Just a thought.

Can you resend better screens, the ones you sent are no good.

Cheers

Now that's odd. A Phantom ID? It's locked out, technically.

Well, I think there is no limit about rheinland-only characters, mainly because we've seen liberty military infested, we've seen kusari government infested and who knows what other factions might be still affected. It's an open question with no certain answer as the game shows us that it's not just rheinland.

Just to update, this player is still in Theata, but is now using a Phantom ID, I dont know how you get it, but I cant imagine you can get it without leaving theata, so I dont know what is going on with this player.

If he has a Phantom ID and isn't a member of the Phantoms then it's likely that this person is cheating, because as far as I'm aware, it isn't possible to get one.

[Unseelie]

or had help from a phantom...who would have had to give up the ID.....

About the hitboxes...yeah.
the Nomad cruiser has such a broken hitbox, less than 50% of it is actually hittable....otherwise, shots pass right through....so do rocks and ships, btw.

nomads can be rped well,
but, they get abused, same as rheinland battleships get abused...difference is, RM comes after the rheinland battleships, noone enforces the nomads....except for RM...in RM space....
