well, welcome to Discovery. We do things slightly differently here. Trading is by far the best way of making money, but we do also have pirate factions who will try to rob you, and often succeed. I'm not sure what it was like on Freeworlds, but here 3-4 well piloted bombers can take down any capital ship you'd care to mention. We also have mandalorians here, one of the few imports which has survived this long. They're basically a group of elite mercenaries, rather than their own empire though.
Tags are allowed, I think, as long as they aren't too difficult to type and reflect your RP role, e.g. the Bretonian Armed Forces player faction uses the tag BAF| in front of all of its ships. Names aren't moderated much, but there are a few ground rules, like not using swear words in your name, making it sound vaguely like a human or ship name and, if you're a pirate, you really should use an easy to type name, since it helps traders using the /givecash command (it's a lot easier to type /givecash Nasty.Pirate 1000000 than it is to type /givecash Omg[Ipnzorzu.nublol1337 1000000. Also, beware of Mon'star, the nomads, the Keepers, das Wilde, the phantoms, and the cabbage hunter.
welcome - and yes, disco is a lot more casual RP / pvp. not focussed much on hardcoded factions and more focussed on the enjoyment of a single player. - other than that - its mostly freelancer. it doesn t stride far from the original idea.
freeworlds ( at least one of the earlier versions i played ) has/had a much more daring attitude to balance things. - disco is more conservative.

As have been stated, there's no [CIV] thing. (Honestly, I thought it was really ridiculous)
Just be...Normal, I guess. Oh, and do try to not irritate the Harvesters. People-munching evil robots can be a tad touchy.

Treewyrm Wrote:all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.
