  • Oh Ajay, you look so CUTE ! xD



    Anyway, ya... rarely people ask you out of nowhere to help you, it actually happens, but it's possible that it doesn't happen to somebody.



    If you need help or to team up with others (where THAT is RP, for example when a full wing of cop players start patroling the space, a thing we do pretty often lately) or such, just ask.



    But I do remember your main problem...



    your problem is the timezone you are and the time you can play, when you are able to see the "ION STORM", it gets to be a problem, and you are not able to see many players. Or you see the players and RP, or you see the Ion Storm :D


    That is solvable by playing CF in other hours, and doing something else in the late hours... but this could be counted as a "big effort" or even "sacrifice" for some, so, no need. Just as an advice :D

  • Well, there can be actions that don't involve mass PvP... An amassed Inner Core expedition, huge Dervon raid or just killing NPC...

    Through hell and horror trudge and yet their spirits never yield.
    Will they sing of these forsaken pawns of war?"

  • Inner Core is nice space for training guns aim and to have enough fun too. You can also invite ppl to participate on event(s) (Can be nicely done as EM). For IC expeditions you can use more mission objectives .. there is big place to set for yourself very different conditions. You can be also well known merchant (trader) ... and in meantime slowly step by step try learn PvP ... not mass PvP but few fights each day when you are in space, simple for "check" if your aim gained in Inner Core or Dervon is better and so on.


    For MP also works good if you try to talk with ppl which you know play regularly and you see them often.

  • Thank you very much. Well, however, I still find myself as a part of "Help A Noob" initiative :) Kickstarting somebody with NPC hunting together and so on :)

  • By the way, wanted to ask, is Shockwave a good fighter?

  • Yes, he is good fighter. He knows how to PvP.


    ..and btw help new ppl how to fight with NPCs is for sure good. Helping with top missions too ... especially Altair can be hard for someone who had experience only with vanilla FL.

  • Then I don't understand at all WHY he didn't got a bounty for my Secondary2 (Thanatos) in Vega...
    EDIT: Now I have another thing that takes me away from CF server...

  • Hello CF Friends :)



    I did readed, that here do someone talking about RP. Thats why i do posting here, without to creat / start new thema.



    I do missing Old Time on this Server, with reall Server RP. This is for me, so really borring / frustrating this time. I do log in, and see 15 FL Players, and i m alone Clan member on server, which cant do play reall, good, old CF RP.
    We lost our RP. There comes FL Player and do tax Clan Members 8| There fly FL Players with RP - CSF Liceneses? ?(
    I m sorry guys, but i dont understand more our RP.
    I do remember old times, as we Cops, was so really hard and brutalaty hostile with Pirartes. As we did defended our Systems. Hunts invaders and.. many, many more action full things. But today is all out. There fly Pirates with CFPD Clan ships :cursing: FL Players fly, and PvP, and do Tax in Custodian 8|
    Damn, where is Fallen? I saw RyderHook, and some new member.. but not often.. i do mean, Fallen is old, hard, CF Veterans CLan. They do have just 2 members? I saw so many FL Players ,which do play Pirates RP. Why they dont join Fallen? :thumbdown:
    Where are Lost Prophets?


    I m sorry, but why we must now to play RP with FL Players, which are out of CF RP? We have very much players on server, and this is really good. I love it, to see so many Players :) But our CF RP is dead :S

  • FL players are not out of RP. Never have been. They actively cannot do the rp without license but they can still be dragged into the RP.
    FL players may still be taxed, fined and can receive bounties.


    Just sayin - hope there hasnt been any changes regarding this topic - then i please about correction from a GR member!

  • I expect things looked different before, but rules (with latest changes) are easy to understand. FL licensed pilot have SAME RIGHTS and play under same server rules like clan tagged player. Why FL do not want join a clan? Good question (was discussed also more times), but maybe pirates (especially they) like more independent pirate career? (please it is imo and only as example, I know very well that this question is not easy ...) But in all cases to be clan member do not meant he should act like he is something more like others (like I'm clan member and FL can't touch me! and if yes, my all 100 clan members will hunt him forever .... if this was before. maybe this is reason (one) why we now have troubles). Yes, he (clan member) can have (and have) much more fun and possibilities how to initiate action, but he still need to obey server rules which do not give him extra rights (except if clan rent a system).


    About less action in space .. rly dunno, yesterday I spent few hours in fight/action, first when my clan members works on theirs special assignment and chase me through half Sirius (clan internal business), next action against police in NT where were placed bounties (which ended when more pirates arrived and keep police busy) and after on police side also in NT against pirates. Evening full of action and was no time for peaceful space observation ;). I play as my RL allows (each third evening) and I have almost every this evening enough RP interaction and fun ... Imo problem (one from) why is less action as before is, because players think that things will happen themselves without theirs helping hand. Fortunately this changed (is much better) in last months.


    Was mentioned Fallen: had with them few days ago rly nice fight in Vega and also before. So maybe not every day in space, but still active. Same with LP, Marauder and Pack are still in space.


    I observed also one interesting thing ... players who play theirs RP (no matter which one), who like say GFS and which do not offend others (in many different ways, for many various purposes) and as I say "after fight drink good beer in bar with theirs worst space enemies" have in space good times and can count with more action. This ofc works also opposite way :|

  • Vor talk abut server RP with your clan leader. And FL pirat can tax u and KoS u (all time watch on 6). Last month is full of RP, smuglers hunt, pirat ambush or big batlle...and pirat who try to tax in Custo get bounty on head and he is destroyed in 5 min after that.

    Yep, many died in custo cuz of that... from my hand :D

  • I have two suggestions:


    Look into the racing events, No pvp involved. Just find the fastest route. Also smuggler hunt, but that can involve pvp (I always used my shroud LF and avoided being shot..)



    Middle of the night, when player count is low, is the best time to go hunting in the IC. They'll beat you up and teach you that you need to keep moving to advance. (If you don't have a ship in the IC yet, maybe set one up with all Guns)



    Good luck! Maybe I'll see you around sometime (currently internetless)

    words of wisdom, except the race one :D (joke) :)

  • Not many here know how to rp at all, with the "gangster" mentality still strong with some people or the obvious concerted efforts between certain rp factions. When police stop a player to generate rp, it's cool to participate and see where the rp leads too. Police for the most part make a huge effort to create different situations to get players involved. Instead of doing the rp, which lasts a mere few minutes at best, we get insults or " this is not my rp char". All players are subject to role play, license or not.


    The other item which I consider the most important, are the pirates constantly staying in X3043 instead of out trying to tax people and create mischief ( which is their job ).



    @ Ajay: Our offer stands, we can use you in the Police rp and we will take care of getting you setup with all the needed equipment, ships etc. Cops are constantly outnumbered with the Mercs and Pirates colluding against the police daily, so the more guns we have the better.

  • Now THAT looks like words of wisdom, or is it just words from experience ? hmm



    Anyway there should be sueing methods on Freelancers to get on a RP, or in a clan :D


    But not too much to avoid driving them off the server... it'd be easier if clans actually recruits. CFPD does that, moderately (because starting to recruit even from NY is wrong, and always ended wrong for the clans who did that, as in easy comes, easy go.).
