Freelancer Shell

Its a standard clan order now if any player is killing low lvl chars ask any PiA for help

I'm gone a couple of days, and look what happens! Well, I agree with Dragoness on this one. Players who enjoy a balance of trade, exploration, and combat will be affected somewhat less than the exclusive train pilots, but the ones rewarded the most are those who care for nothing but killing. Once again, a skilled fighter is now encouraged to just show up, and begin slaying players at will, and never do any exploring or trading at all! If this is what it takes to make CF more interesting for some people, then there is no need for new ships, new systems, economy models, or new factions. Just make the whole game a top gun match and have done with it... [5]

Gee CA, tell us how you really feel....

I will hunt this lvl 70+player and give my killing credits to the lvl 37 player.

This goes for anyone I see abusing these low level players.

If a lower ranked player chooses to fight, that is one thing, but if you pick on the little-guy, Im going to pick on you.......trust me.

Same here!

you ppl are crying about something that never has been done before... you cry even before something happened

instead of takeing this CHANCE to give ppl a reason to play again instead of sitting around bored and leaving the server after just a few days you decide "ITS BAD" without even knowing if its really as bad as you think

you will see that some action will bring new players to the server... you will see that tactics to avoid fights will be developed... and you will see that to fight and roleplay will be fun

can the SPs use the dock kill messages as evidence to kick/ban repeated dock killers?

yes - a better proof you wont get

oh and btw. lvl 37 is not low ranked (everything below lvl30 is)

For my 2 cents (or what ever the equalis in Euro) I think we should all check it out and see how it goes. Right now we have no idea how well it will or will not work. Give it a chance and let's see.......you can still complain after you see if it works or not. But let's not condemn it before we even try it.......

This FL Shell is a good thing somehow CF has turned into a trade and chat server more fights is a good thing atm we have the ASF/CSF fights but with this it encourges other roleplay the pirates have more incentives to do what they do and the agreived party can hire mercs as escorts or request aid from the police

You said that in furure you might put some lables in dots command so restart command (starting conditions)will work. My suggestion is each clan that rent system to have its own lable as example - player that use it for his char will start in the clan system with all fractions neutral except coalition and nomads. ppl that dont belong to this clan and use the clan lable will be forced by SP to delete their char. All players can check what lable other used with list command so evryone can report for "cheaters". Also players can use it with new chars only (only under lvl20) so further changes cant be done (ecept if player disaseble whole ship, buy a cheap one and give all money/equipment to someone else)

the SPs cant watch all new chars... thats impossible

to create clan profiles will lead to abusive behaviour

I dont mean all chars but those that are logged atm also the rest can report too becouse clans will look for their interest and wont allow someone else to use their starting lable

Imho, you can't take decisions based on theories. As Chief red cloud said, let's see the results of this before we say "it's going to be like this", or "this will happen".

That's why when i finish a exam in uni for example, i wait to see the result before i say "I went terrible".

in the future.....what about a shell that gives 9M for a 90 rank or 7M for a 70rank kill (only 90 rank vs 90rank etc.... rules could be applied for ex only clan vs clan and fl vs fl. and what about traders.....mmm...escort). I think that in this case CF will be a real pvp dome[78]
I know it is crazy but I'm just looking for reactions[58]

i just saw today that a new version of FLShell has been released, with more options and commands

Yes, new version FLshel 1.0.3 is out and so far it seems a fantastic admin tool

Damn finaly credit transfers with no need of somebody's help And for pirates/police RP clans - the "great scans" for illegal cargo beggings

I dont think this is going to have as big an impact as some people are concerned about.

I think peoples main motivation in PVPs will always be to test their skills against another. Not to earn credits.

And those pesky pirates will always be trying to tax whatever!!!

I think the shell will stimulate a little extra activity and encourage ppl to try harder in PVP. Both of which are good.

It can also help your own skills and tacticts, if u know how u killed or where killed.

If your always getting toasted by missiles then u know your weakness and can work on that.

Tassie has a very good point.

What I don't like is the time limit on the undocking issue.

I chased a bogey out of Custodian at Nuetro, he undocked, went to cruise...I cd' him , then made him space dust......1.5 k from Nuetro and I get "Gunny killed a man in the docks, what a shame"....

seems the time limit is too long?

I have yet to be attacked randomly by another player, nor have I seen it done, or done it myself since the new shell was loaded, so I think we're all over-reacting.
Then again, I just got my new Deathblade, so I may go hunting today....
