Why oh why

  • Please don' get angry or give me smart ass replies but the creator/s of Crossfire mod why did you keep the PC generated pirates and why did you make them so blood hard? I play the game to explore the large endless systems and an example of this was the mod "VOID". They kept their pirates in the game but they are guarding wrecks etc not 6 of them waiting at a jump gate loaded to the hilt with missiles.


    Running cargo is now very bad waiting to dock (unable to control your ship) getting your ship hammered is very disapointing.


    This is by far the leading mod but for someone who likes to explore well that now is gone. The pirates are usally the people playing the game ie. clans taxs etc.


    Just a thought ....ok hammer away at me i have full shields up and ready to get take your verbal onslaught... [11]

  • Ehm, usually the idea in CF is to start off by trading or fighting the low-level NPCs. You're provided with 150k which is enough to buy a decent ship and some weapons.


    You can only hope to start exploring once you have enough money to buy the Junker's bribe (810,000 credits, buyable at Rochester Base in New York). With it, you should be neutral to most factions (except the Nomads, Dom'Kavaash, Xenos and a few others), which then enables you to pretty much go everywhere.


    Have fun. :D

  • if you ask any veterane player online, they will help with that first part (bribe and equipment I mean).


    If you are playing in SP, just buy an defender and look for a JG near rochester, from there you can make some money and buy a lot of equip.

  • The NPCs can be a bit brutal, but it's just another challege thrown into the mod. By upgrading your ship and staying out of dangerous areas until you've reached the point where you can best your enemies, it will be very rewarding not only to explore, but to defeat the powerful foes along the way. Generally if you see somebody on the server over level 65, he or she is a veteran here. Most of us are helpful and friendly, so don't hesitate to ask questions :)

    Tassie "fee access" sounds nice too :D:D . Maybe you can collect toll taxes for using custodian as NY - X route :D:D:D . For example - 10 mil per pass 18 mil both ways :D .

  • Putting a toll on such a route would quickly result in massive conflicts. If there were tolls everybody would have to be allowed to pass through (that includes hoodlums, enemies, and RP opponents). The current model works well because the BG let those they like through and kill the rest :D

  • First of all - I was joking, 2nd - there are a lot of credits in this idea ;). And I didn't said you can't be killed there - you pay and take the risk ;). You can die on the highway no matter you paid or not toll tax :D:D:D .
