" And just like in reality, sometimes killing is the only way out. It's a nasty job but somebody's gotta do it."
-True, but sometimes people like station miners and nukers tend to kill innocents in an attempt to kill one or two griefers or general ********. Kill the ********, but avoid collateral damage.

sorta like our military! if we can do it in real life, why cant we do it here?

i also hate using tri-flares valk, the duels end too fast :(
but i realized that the only way to fight a tri-flare valk, is to use one yourself.

I had some encounters with *, alienb and marcuse which use this combo, all died many times by my hand. So next time you get annoyed by a tri-flares valk, use one and kill them if you can. If you cant kill them, then run away and stop whining.

I don't use those uber-ships, like the valk. I'll just keep trying in my warthog, hornet, vulture, centurion, rag, or.. the bus.

This type of thing has been talked about before, and is a result as how people percieve the game should be. Here are some examples:

Militarists: This is a war between nations, if you're not on my nation, you don't need to be on my radar anymore - I don't care who else is trying to kill you.. what ever it takes to make you gone.

Traders: I'm just a trader don't kill me.

"Beta-Testers": This is a game, a beta test at that, I'm just beta testing everything, including exploits, and using weapons that are the hardest to survive against.. its just a game!

Knights: Chivalry is not dead, if I engage another fighter, we are sole enemies, and no one else is to engage us - until one of us is dead.

Many people fit many of these perspectives, depending on mood, climate, time of day, time of month, etc. What you see as a problem, is when two of these non-inclusive perpectives on the game butt heads.. resulting in frustration on at least one part, if not both. So the best way to deal with it? fight fire with fire.. if its 7 on one.. team request backup... it is afterall just a game! fair isn't always.. realistic.

Insightful post, mcnut. I agree.



Centurion Angel, The Angry Gnat

he's right. If it's 7 on 1, get a 14 on 7. Just call in team chat "Red bash in 7!" and wait.

same here. although i have the three special ships, i don't use them (i just like to be able to say i have them). i just stick with my centurion, hornet, warthog, and centaur. they work for me at this time. might change in the future though.

me sticks with his vult, warthog or marauder/prom to trade :D

cheers

Eh, I'm labeled with * and Marcuse..time for a character overhaul..

Arg...

Atleast i dont have to rely on valks to fight..

If you want me to change ships, if you think its un-fair, just PM me and i'll scrap the valk...

However, it is very hard to use an energy weapon ship while fight a 3+ on 1...

So before you start complaining about tri valk users, consider the facts first

nobody outruled the 2 sunnie , 1 energy set up :D
