nation manufacting stations

Jul 30, 2016 scared star link
i have an idea, plz dont hate if you dont like it but its very hard for an honest hard working player to try to make stuff but to be pirate or killed in grey {yes, i understand its a lawless space where everything can happend} but when you try to help the company and there is also an monopoly in this game and you put time an effert into getting the stuff to be built but always ether loseing money and/or ship and cargo to an player that takes the fun and hard work away from an honest hardworking player, i think there should be an manufacting station the is free for anyone or just for the nation that it is in {UIT,SERCO,ITAN} in that nation space, this can help ppl to still have fun, and maybe even out the monoploy in this game, and feel free to leave you feeling here but remeber this is an idea

Let's keep it constructive here please, everyone.

Sacred star:

Your suggestion appears to be:

There should be a manufacturing station that is free for anyone, or just for each nation.

Can you say more about how a free manufacturing station would be good for the game? If I understand your suggestion, it seems to me that it would be bad for the economy and would be used by the rich to get richer (I would blockade it with guild-mates).

You'd be better off on channel 1 stating that you had been pirated into the stone age and politely ask if anyone could help you get back on your feet. People are actually pretty generous if you ask correctly.

Constructive? Okay.

Also, asking for such favors on Channel 1 is an inappropriate use of that channel. Channel 1 is for asking questions about how the game works. Asking for actual in-game assistance should be done through other channels (e.g. 100).

@scared star: Your idea is, indeed, an idea. That doesn't mean it's a good idea, though, and your failure to adequately punctuate it makes it a chore to read. If you blithely dump a pile of words on people without taking the time to organize those words into coherent thoughts, you shouldn't be surprised when people take offense to your rudeness.

I will also try being constructive, despite having my entire in-game profession labeled as lazy and dishonest in the OP.

Nation space has such an animal, it's in Nyrius, F-6 to be exact. If you build there, you can trade what you make with traders willing to make the more dangerous trips to grey.

If that sounds less than fun, just pay the damn pirates, or build for them in exchange for passage. None of us want make you have less fun, quite the opposite really....just play along....you will have more fun.

Ask to pay before you leave nation space, and you'll get a much cheaper rate usually, also a lot of times, station keys.....those things that tgft told you you'd own indefinitely if you joined them.

And lastly, and this is a very important one so pay attention. YOU ARE NOT SAFE IN NATION SPACE. It can actually be easier to pirate a newb there, and the consequences of your ignorant mistakes are much more dire due to faction tanking.

Cheers.

+1, except that like Latos M-7 the stations are entirely neutral (anyone can dock there) and they are not guarded or otherwise protected by the factions in which they're located or any kind of a NFZ/SF. They also sell XCs to anyone, regardless of standing, at a suitably inflated price-point. Call it a nation-recognized autonomous free trade zone ;)

You want convenience, fine. Although much of what you'll need to build a trident will have to be hauled into these nation-space "free" stations from a LONG way off. We look forward to...escorting you during those trips.

You want some protection of being behind the SF and border turrets, fine. Although this would give *everyone* a place to R&R in the middle of nation-space...there's a reason Inc. finally made all the UIT cap system sub-faction stations off-limits to UIT hated players. Tumble and I may have been having a bit too much fun in Dau ;)

But you don't get to conduct your affairs there in total safety, nor should those who pirate you there after dodging their way through nation-space defenses have to watch your cargo time out because they have no way to scoop your loot and/or are being chased by SF that no moth can escape.

But that's the problem -- it is not supposed to be easy.
