 . . . after all they aint worth VP and that way I can push the limits..



Hmm, remove PvP VCs, get better PvP . . .

I haven't made any kills; but I sure didn't mind staying and fighting out 1v2 odds this time around (couple times, kudos to the tight wing/flank flying I'm facing too... managed to bloody some noses out there but I usually get forced off due to superior tactical movement from my foes) and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.  I do see VC points for kills being useful for campaigns... I'm with Shadow on that, I would go hunt large prey just because... but a break once and a while is obviously good too :)

Looking forward to more... I'm open for challenge/dueling as well so long as it doesn't conflict with my orders at the time and my pp total holds up for replacements ;)

Hey I turned into and let DH blow up my CAY just because I'd rather someone who flew a damned good match get the satisfaction of the kill.

I think that's just about honor and respect.

I have to agree.  I've had a couple of silly 2v1 w/ me in a CL vs humans in a DN and a wing.  I had the PP, it doesn't hurt the team, so I really just wanted to hang around and play for the heck of it.  I made a mental note that my goal was X (kill the little ship, cause an internal on the big ship, or just see if I can get a drone to hit...didn't matter).  Seemed to make it a little more enjoyable.  I will say the lesser "ban" penalty for dieing vs staying encourages sticking around.  Don't think the 50% "cost" does, but after the first week...most player have enough PP to replace whatever they had.  I'm sure my opinion would be different on the last point if I was flying an uber-dread and only had 60K in the bank.

But I have to agree w/ the above...a little variety is good (admittedly I tried that same line on my wife...didn't go over well :mischief: )

Mutt in a Mirak CD+ and myself in a Mirak CVA faced Soth in a C8K and Kaz in a D5L.  It was bloody, and it lasted about 4 mins.  Scratch one Klink Dread and 1 Klink light cruiser.  GG guys

Risky in a ISC light cruiser I had a Mirak MCC with a mirak drone frigate (AI) took down Throg in his Klingon C5K with a D5D (ai) helper. Was a very fun game. GG to both.

My X-goal is usually to score equal internals unless I'm outmatched, in which case I just try to get a few before I'm chased off... little stubborn I guess.

And the kid is still alive

Ok quick story here..

My 13 year old son, has been watching me play the game on and off for years. For whatever reason on this server he has started to sit down beside me and watch the PVP games. Anyways  I have had a few ships die to players as of late. All good games ya know the kind where you can win or loose based on one move or one mistake.

Well last night he watches a 3v2 games where we were forced to fly off the map vs DH and Frey (VGG guys) -- then he watched me play a 1v1 vs Paladin Fed CF vs My FFH_K. Game was very close and I thought I had Paladin with two fully loaded S torps (we were doing a Mexican standoff at about range 7 ) anyways he WW and my world goes to pot.

I die., game ends..

The punk ass kid looks up at me and says
"You sure die a lot as a Romulan"

Sigh -- he lived I didnt even smack him (considering he is only 2-3 inches shorter then me probably a smart move on my part) ..
Bastard Kid I am going to get him up and running for a server and put a bounty on his head!!

Classic.   That story sounds so familiar.   My nephew practices on his Playstation2 games so that he can trounce me when I visit.   He always seems amazed when I can keep up or do better than him when he first gets these games.   20+ years of being a gamer certainly helps.

Great story, Duck!!!   ;D

Best way to shut em up is to let them do it themselves and see how damned hard it is, hehe.

Kill: What a time to logon! I see 44,4 get hit in the news. Its an ISC hex... Hrmmm... down to 49. Must be a base deepstriker. Who's online... Ahhh! Mrogue in his DN!

Poof.

GG Mrogue. You got the short end of the stick. I hope that base was worth the pp...  ;D



btw how did frey and dh team up? Was it a 3-way?

Your crew is currently being sent back in boxes. Sorry we didnt have one big enough for each crew, so we are using multiple boxes...
