  1. This cumulative system really needs to be changed when we consider how much negative honour people can get for accidental miss locks (aka myself). for me, misslocking a pet = outlaw status, i lose on average 1.6m of honour a day due to me misslocking then one shoting a pet and my life for the past week has been honour quest after honour quest, mindless, mind numbing lowers npc bashing for hours on end, it has made me sick and tired of this game and i had only just got back into it after quitting for 4 years. i dont want to have to have to quit due to this pet one shotting and becoming outlaw every day, it rly has to stop. i have lost a good 10 mill plus honour to pet killing and its annoying as hell.
    The easiest way to solve this would be to make pets immune to friendly fire so that no one can misslock friendly pets by accident.
    this would make the game a better place for players like myself that become outlaws on a daily due to misslocking pets, and it would reduce the number of people thinking of quiting.
    I intend to quit (until cumulated neg hon resets) after i have worked of the -1.6mill negative honour that i have just recieved from misslocking a pet whilst helping a friendly on a bbk.
    All of this fuss could have been avoided if DO pulled their finger out and actually changed the pet system so that it did not coincide with killing an actual human friendly, but they didnt. so it has caused quite alot of annoyance for everyone in the game.

    so in real life do you send your pet to blow up on a close by group of aliens? then resurrect it from the dead by paying money to a system? damn didnt realise the U.S had such advanced pet caring facilities.
    little salty at what that person said :p

  2. What if your in a rivalry with a certain player from your company part of pvp is kill that pet if you get a chance so your not taking the extra damage this would take that aspect out totally. Maybe a toggle in settings for being able to fire on same company pets is a better route to take rather then killing all friendly fire to pets.
     
  3. That is an even better idea tbh, DO could implement something similar to being able to toggle the ability to see cargo that isnt yours, but instead of cargo it would be pet friendly fire on or off. but if this option isn't added and DO just implement the no friendly fire on pets rule, then the only way to properly do a 1 v 1 is to war the other player's clan and that would allow you to fire at a friendly(warred) pet. or just dont fight with pets when having 1 v 1's with same company members.

    Maybe you should look up the British way of spelling honour and the American way and see if there is a difference before making yourself look like a fool ;)

  7. Honour (also honor in American English, see spelling differences; from the Latin word honor) is an abstract concept entailing a perceived quality of worthiness and respectability that affects both the social standing and the self-evaluation of an individual or corporate body such as a family, school, regiment or nation. Accordingly, individuals (or corporate bodies) are assigned worth and stature based on the harmony of their actions with a specific code of honour, and the moral code of the society at large.
    were all english over here bud xD
    also its honour not honor for us.
     
    yellowsubmarine and jackknife like this.
  8. Still no CM for this would love for this to be looked at more closely
     

  9. Blue cargo - it is NOT yours to take...yellow/orange cargo is yours to take without penalty.
     
  10. Agreed Yellow, but Back when i first started playing Blue cargo for new players wasn't obvious, which is why DO now automatically turns off showing blue cargo for all new players to stop them becoming outlaws by not understanding the honour system. Alot of people complained and DO listened, I wonder if this could be something that can be implemented now,

    Every day i see in chat, "lost *** amount of honour due to popping a pet" its one of the most common complaints in DO right now other than over zealous chat banns (but most deserve them anyway :), myself included)

    i would love a mod to move this to the ideas and suggestions section please to get more peoples ideas on this

    thanks
     
  11. Certainly the pet issue is kind of to be looked into, every premium player has its pet on low and attacking the cubi for example...so in crowded situations if you mislock and even hit 1 fire you kill that pet and loose honor -.-, so the way that darkorbit should remove honor loosing from pet should be looked upon, because after it is implemented we dont want ppl to kill pets by purpose because they wont loose anything then...I say it should be like this that we cannot kill pets which are allies, own companies except for war ones..what do you say?
     
  12. just remove it we was better before that update , i lost like 60 millions of honour in a single month with that lol ...
