More new to MP questions + Elite question

Did a search or three couldn't find exactly what I was looking for ..... New to MP.

I heard rep was easy to fix from the start by blowing up a storage container or two at Manhatten .. is this right? I won't have 10,000 liberty navy ships hunting me the rest of the game? (A bit of cash from the contents would be good also).

Do the wrecks regen ? Don't want to go and try and get loot only to find everything is empty?

If your charecter dies ... is it dead or does the trusty old auto save/saved charecter allow you to not start at the beginning every time ... can take more risks this way.

Is the Annubis available in MP ... I'm guessing not.

Anybody want to trade a Patriot for an Eagle..... thought not lol.

On Elite, other than no PVP in liberty is there any other code of conduct I need to know about playing there.



If you throw enough mud ..some's gonna stick.

-Nope, as long as you dont destroy a ton of them, they go back to friendly/nuetral as soon as you leave the system
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Do the wrecks regen ? Don't want to go and try and get loot only to find everything is empty?"

-They regen everytime the server resets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"If your charecter dies ... is it dead or does the trusty old auto save/saved charecter allow you to not start at the beginning every time ... can take more risks this way."

-You regen at the last place you docked. You lose nothing except unequiped equipment and all trade items
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Is the Annubis available in MP ... I'm guessing not."

-Nope, not buyable
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Anybody want to trade a Patriot for an Eagle..... thought not lol."

- You cant trade ships, you have to buy them yourself
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"On Elite, other than no PVP in liberty is there any other code of conduct I need to know about playing there."

- No, except that you should stay away from gamma. All the idiot, bloodthirsty clans hang out there (like NEO)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And we'll have fun fun fun 'till daddy takes the sabre away!

How DO you blow up one of those storage tanks. I've shot at a Storage Depot over and over again, long after everything in the area turned hostile, and never got it to blow up. Am I shooting the wrong thing?

Feel free to head to Gamma and those other places, just stay off the main roads if you don't want to get shot. On the other hand, it can be quite enjoyable to get one of them to chase you and just lead them off somewhere. The dumb punks don't know when to give up. Or be really evil and go through a jump hole, quickly maneuver to the other side, jump back through when the pursuer arrives, and see how long they'll try to follow you. mwahaha

Ahh, by storage depots you mean that little grey metal cross eh? If you were shooting at that, nothing will happen. You have to shoot at the tank-like storage containers that they are holding, BUT, sometimes these are already blown by other players that may be why you didn't see them. They regen at the same time as wrecks do, I think.
