The clipper i've just met at Arque had weapons and did use them. :o Well, I'm still alive and there's now one clipper less. I've contributed almost 2M credits, which is currently enough for top 25%.

I've encountered I think 5 and none of them opened fire and all initiated 'hostile behaviour'.

I did have a 2-3 second moral dilemma for the first time in this game last night.
After losing my 'Vette and cargo I went in fully empty.
Got scanned, (not verbatim as I don't remember exactly) something about being empty and "how am I supposed to feed my children?"
For a few seconds I almost let him be on with his business. Then I remembered he'd show no mercy, and will just die by the security forces anyhow.
Also had anybody else noticed the patrol 'Condas firing 'victory' shots at no targets? I've seen it a few times and one even hit me cause he fired as he was scanning me.

Contributed 41m in Arque’s CG, in top ten commanders at the moment. I’d be surprised to stay there, tho, because the CG will probably end before I get a chance to get back on it.

I've seen them fire at cargo that was left after a ship was destroyed...

Just had my first....run in.... with a high g planet. 2.12 isn't much but when you're not expecting it, well it didn't end well. That might explain why the controller was vibrating more than normal. Think I'll pass on the rest of my tip-offs.

On the way to Jaques and the stars are getting very dense in the area I am in. Made another 2K towards last night, but stopped early because of the heat and the fact I am sleep deprived :P

What's your range in that? I tolerate lesser ranges based on the ship but sometimes it does dictate what I choose to do or where to go.


I managed to get my 'Conda above 45 with Farseer. Went back to Ohm and was playing with parts and the 5D sensors gave me another 7ly.
Working on getting necessities for other engineers so I can shoot for near or above 60LY.

7ly just by switching to 5D sensors? Holy shit!

Don't you mean 8D? Since is not possible to fit a smaller class sensor in that slot and it's nowhere near 7ly.
