CG: Sale of the Century

Postby Sevin Church » Fri Nov 25, 2016 6:41 pm

Dear fellow Commanders,

Please give clearance to your fellow Commanders, I have done 3 runs in the CG just today and watched multiple times while people are flying into each other, saw 1 Anaconda get taken out by the station. This is causing a pileup inside/out where ships of various sizes are trying leave or enter. The station isn't going anywhere, but I kinda get pissed when my shields get nicked by piss poor manners.

If patients isn't your thing, I politely request you go to solo mode while doing this CG. I'm not your mother, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to be your insurance agent either.

Good feedback, Sevin.

Also, keep an eye on the local chat when you're close to entering/exiting the slot. It's a great practice to announce your intentions around the slot of busy CG stations.

Such as: "Cutter entering slot".

More like trying to drive anywhere in the commonwealth of Massachusetts. Almost everyone can't drive, and they think they own the lane.

And they always go in on red at full speed while you are going out green at the limit.

Not to mention the donkeys that ignore the green arrows! I spent 48 hours doing the Community goal, and have never seen so much wreckage in my life. That said..there were AI ships nosediving into the floor and walls too. It was bad enough playing within the Mobius group, Hell only knows what it was like in OPEN.!

Yeah servers must've been jumpy as I saw all kinds of NPC's trying to hump the inside of the port and come through the slot sideways etc. And while I was docked, it sounded like a warzone with all the laser fire and explosions

The CG worked out well for me. I only finished in the top 50%, but I didn't put much effort into it. Nice payout indeed.
