[SC] Stronger penalties

I have never considered shooting a player from my own co. with out provocation. Yet I have recently been attacked by players of my own co. in order to steal a BBK . These greedy players , in my opinion , should face much stricter penalties in order to make this less appealing. Temporary acct. suspensions would be ideal. But other harsh penalties could be considered.
I mean really, It's bad enough we have to avoid enemy hunters but to have to worry about friendly fire , as well, is ridiculous. If you want to shoot someone , go to an enemy map and make all the kills you want. Or declare WAR. Which is a game option . Stop being greedy . We all want to build our ships and advance .

 

BP should change the name of this game to Dark Anarchy.

 

Funny . I like it

 

They should remove PvP between same-company players completely, exactly like how it is in Battlestar Galactica.

Unless you declare war on them.

 

TY for your responses. Hope more players will voice their opinions

 

Whilst at a start this seems a good idea - theres many downsides - for example cubing - it has a shared reward, so anyone can just come up and use his credit ammo whilst youre wasting all your good ammo, for the same reward.

 

And the reason for this is just what your all doing here complaining about other players and you can't just fly up to a cube and shoot it once and get the same rewards, the cubes are shared depending on the damage you do to them. Quit being complainers your saying if they want to kill you they should have to send war well how about you try and do exactly what you said they should do, if your saying someone kills you for a kristallon maybe you should send the war and go kill them yourself. If not your just a scared player that in my mind has never stepped up to the pvp plate yet and are just hiding where ever and whenever you can" Hence the complaining". Step up or maybe the game is not for you. Enjoy

 

Oh boo hoo, someone shoots your cube, big deal.

Also change it to where cubes are no longer shared then.
Pretty useless to have it a shared rewards NPC now.

 

That what clans are for, send war and dont let them cube, bk or bbk.

 

You are probably one of those greedy [removed] that don't even let your own co. players advance. If you want to shoot someone , then go to an enemy map and cube but, leave your own co. players alone. your not comfortable challenging players of equal strength , so you have to take from those who you know you can beat. In my opinion you are the coward and should not even be allowed to play.

 

Sorry to say you are so wrong but i can tell the kinda players your use to so all i say is enjoy the game. Even though it sounds to me like you like to rage on others when things don't go your way.

 

FYI -this was not about Cubes in the first place . This is about having players in X-7 thinking they own all the BBK's that spawn. You could have it almost popped and they will come with their enemy locater and kick you off . If you do not yield , they pop you. If YOU were trying to upgrade your ship as I guess you have , would you feel this is appropriate. I thought the idea was to battle against enemy co. , not your own. I under stand that disagreements happen and wars are started but these players just do it because they are greedy and they can.
And if YOU don't GET IT then you are part of the problem not the solution. So have a nice day . And have fun popping all your co. players who are trying to do what it appears you have done. ADVANCE. I don't complain about getting popped by an enemy. I see THAT as part of the game .

I will check this thread once a day for any other opinions . I invite DO to close at their discretion
TY in advance for any comments whether they be positive or negative.
PS- I will continue playing and I will hunt down all those who thought they were so tough NOW !
Everyday brings me closer to UFE status

 

Sorry to hear that you dont like DO. But just because you dont like the way the game is played doesnt mean that BP should alter the game that has been around for 10 years just because you dont think it is right. Part of succeeding in DO is learning how to survive, although it is much easier today than it was 7 years ago. If someone takes something from you, take it back, bring friends if need be. There is strength in numbers, join a clan. Make friends in the game and work together. These are the things all of us had to do to get where we are in the game.

 

I wish ships friendly fire was simply not allowed by game program or servers, (ship unable to fire on same company ships) unless warred or enemy! Like a :anti-friendly ship mechanism . To many clans have both a company clan and and enemy clan ship to avoid taking negative.

 

I'm sorry if you got the wrong impression. I never said I don't like DO. It just surprises me that people still feel the need to steal from members of their own co. When I first started playing many years ago , BBK's were at a premium so thievery seem to be the norm . But , now they seem to spawn in abundance and it should be enough for all players to share in this . What circumstance can be SO critical that you can't let a player keep what he got first.
However I do understand your point of view . DO already has penalties for shooting members of your own co. so it would not be a major change. Just an increase of the penalties to make it less appealing. That's an easy adjustment well within the games general guidelines.

 

Surprisingly the game has developed and unfortunately some players haven't evolved to suit.... the 'I was there and I found it hard' doesnt wash when you consider that 'back then' 3 companies had some meaning and were still populated by people who cared, many have left due to lack of controls in-game, about their own company and fought off all enemy players and protected newer players and their weaker members (MCCs hadnt realised at that point that banding all the powerful ships from All companies could mean a clan could be ranked #1 without having to be honourable or even loyal to any company or even to this game as many of them only play during events to boost their own personal and clan rank to deprive others of any fun or prospect for the future whilst they themselves play other games in the interim)... all you achieve these days by bringing your less powerful friends to help is more kills for the MCC or UFE and make them feel more like heroes rather than the 'back-stabbing rank hunters' they are, who don't care about the game principles or rules, and the clans that war their own simply for more red dots to kill without any provocation are no better!

You are right about people having several ship either bought, borrowed or built by themselves and to spread them around and reside in a single clan so as to always be able to shoot their desired target without having to suffer from a penalty for in-game honour, which so many people don't associate with real life 'human' honour as they patently don't suffer in real life and can cause whatever they like in a simple game regardless of rule or principle! Warring a clan these days is all too often a way of creating new red dots to shoot FOC and has nothing to do with the Game Storyline per se...

Certain players like to try to play the card that you are at fault for having an opinion, but of course they make themselves the fool in doing so, as it proves they didn't read the original Post... I am personally 'all for' the limitation of shooting own company players.. be it through limiting any clan to war only '5' own company clans at any one time, as it would seem if they 'hate all their own company' then they should leave and play a different company or even another game rather than TROLL this one! AND to shoot your own Company after an enemy player has initiated the attack in order to avoid honour deductions should have a penalty in its own right as it is against principles/honour...
General guidelines, as I still understand them, are that we are 3 companies...
The post from Twotam1

is appropriate and could also say 'Chaos'.. This needs to be dealt with by excluding cheats permanently rather than a months ban as they only come back and find a different way to cheat...

 

TY all for responding. In a perfect world , DO would now take steps to curb attacks on fellow co. members . As I said before , I welcome new and varied opinions and leave it up to DO to close this thread at their discretion . But , I hope they will wait and view some more posts before doing so .
