Itani BP

Oct 30, 2006 Axis.Master link
Today I was trying to do some Itani BP and every time I tried a message that said traitors of Itani that are friends with the Serco couldn't do the mission but my Itani is +999 and my Serco is KoS...what gives?

[Pure BS] You have to have Itani POS (+1000) to do it, of course. [/Pure BS]

I never had +1000 standing with any faction anywhere, and i did bp.

are you sure your -600 with serco?
Oct 30, 2006 Axis.Master link
Yes I am KoS with Serco...that happened after I kileld a few station guards...I was inside docking bay with a standing I couldn't dock with and a station guard blew me up inside of it...

Were you grouped with anyone? Perhaps someone with positive serco standing?

I was in no group.

I have recently noticed that (as the Serco prophet Lexicon) most Serco players and even Serco bots appear to be hostile while I am in Deneb. (i.e. Pressing "select nearest hostile" will bring up the nearest ship.) Odd, yes? I'll try to confirm later on tonight.

I can confirm, this was happening to me last night

you are probably in a group but you were alone.
don't forget to /group leave

Anyone in Itani space hated by Itani will be selected by the select closest enemy bind. One solution would be to make C-10 and B-12 grey space.

yeah, [itan] members regularly engage in bp and we've noticed the bp count is totally borked. for some reason, this felt like common knowledge and none of us reported it.

here's the details:

player 'a' starts the group bp mission;
no players ever receive a mission status count (aka, num foes to go)
player 'a', and only 'a', can get a mission update from the pda->mission->logs (u, m, L)

otherwise, everything seems to work out fine. when the mission is completed, we all get rewards and "some" cash compensation.

noteworthy (/gripe):

- cash compensation for bp is now ludicrously low given new repair costs. it's now a loss most of the time there's any decent players on either sides.

So, yeah, I can confirm that even though I am +956 Serco, pressing "Select Next Hostile" actually selects the nearest ship to me, which is odd.

The other day I was grouped and my kills counted (although I couldn't see them) and the other two guys got the reward, but I didn't... so sad. I got a Mission Complete in the mission log. If any one wants to give me money to compensate my loss, that would be pretty cool... No... ok... you sure, I mean...

"So, yeah, I can confirm that even though I am +956 Serco, pressing "Select Next Hostile" actually selects the nearest ship to me, which is odd."

That is an old, OLD targeting bug that the Serco have complained about on the forums for at least a year... get with the times sercoman.
