    Hi there everyone! For start just let me say hi (again) to everyone around :)


    Well as intro i played fl mp for 3 years and am now in retireing days so i decided to come back here. yes i played on cf some time ago in v 1.4 :P
    so, i greet everyone from that "time" aswell :)


    ok questions...


    -i talked with some peeps and as i got the feeling pvp on cf is handled a bit different. you guys play with no b/b cause it would take long... i'm confused if that affects rp and regular pvp encounters (such as pirat attacking me) or just arranged pvp and events...


    -i have a prob, as i've been said i "must" get a certain rep improvement before going to altair cause of soviets... well i didn't take it and now when i returned i simply cant take it cause soviet diplomats in bar tell me to go away :(
    i did kill a lot of soviets in the meantime so i wonder if that's a prob with rep ...


    -well maybe a constructive advice would be to rethink the fact that soviets have no robbers ... meaning it's really impossible to dock anywhere there unless you're ok with them...


    -well regarding competition for mod of the year, i really take my hat down. really great job and if you ask me you deserve the prize among many mods. great job operator ;)
    however it seems server crashes a lot but thats another story...


    -well just to say i still have many unanswered questions about systems and such, and why is something made like it is... but since i havent explored a lot yet i'll leave them for later times :)


    -and finaly i apologize if i misplaced my thread :D


    cya in space :D

    :D

    have a look to the taverns at planet earth - maybe some people might help you with some rep...

    indeed OP made a great mod (<-- rhymed ;D) - that server crashes now and then is already know (i assume) and therefor OP and his team are working on this issue...

    what you mean with "made like it is"?


    I hope you enjoy your stay and get familiar with the current situation ^^
    Hope to cu in space (have already seen you^^)

    Krisko welcome back to CF. 1.4 was before my time here. Cya in space:)


    Yeah if you dont buy the coalie bribe and kill coalies the bribe is no longer available to that char. You will have to make a new char if you want to buy the coalie bribe:(

    Yes Burros Do Bite.

    I assume that the b/b thing is what we call "reloading", and yep we dont use batts and nanobots. There is no rule about it but we dont use it not to make pvp endless...the only problem you will have is that some ppl maybe will refuse to pvp with you...i encourage you to learn some fight skills and not reload in pvp but you are free ...lancer...

    b/b = bats/bots
    i wonder why this is hard to understand

    Isn't it possible to restore Coalition rep if you get the Order bribe & kill a host of nomads/DK? Haven't actually tried this, so I'd be interested to know myself... :P

    well, just to say few things... i won't quote cause i'm about to go to bed :P



    first it was my pleasure aswell m8 :)


    i solved my prob with coalition :) by doing missions for them, so no prob there.


    pvp... well, i respected (an plan to respect) "your ways" however i am still confused a bit on that subject... anyway, i'll ask that l8r :P now i simply have to lay down ... and .... zzzzzzz

    hey me again... well just another question. i was doing some missions, and i noticed that npc-s in sabres die somehow slower then others... i would dare to say that even most of my certain hits get ignored and that damage was negated... so i wonder if there are such problems, and if u know possible way to avoid those... :) thx!

    :D

    Just don't tell me you've been killing Outcasts. That would make me real angry :D


    But true, i experienced that too when shooting Titans and Eagles. The solution of the prob tho is pretty easy: You just gotta shoot them harder and longer than the npc-s in say, Deimos or Predators. 8)

    yes lvl 19 titan or sabre is MUCH harder to kill that lvl19 umm... any custom CF ship

    ok, another question...


    after buying a weight reduction my cargohold got filled to about 30% ... unless you have a good reason to make it so, i would report this as a possible bug :)



    also, i would welcome any advice about hull improvement. i wonder how much does it actualy slows the ship? so generally is it worth buying?

    :D

    weight reduction does always take 40 units of cargo space. so it depends on size of ur cargo hold, how many percent r taken...

    well, thats strange imho... if it is a weight reduction, how can it occupy my cargo... lol, well nvm that, i'll live cause my devil has 150cargo :P


    oh also, devil has a mistake in its description... in the first sentence it misses "the"


    oh also, does that mean that ships with less then 40 cargo can't mount the WR?


    oh also, thx for the reply :)


    cheerz!

    the weight reduction replaces the normal hull with light material which needs to be thicker in order to be as strong as a normal hull
