Most Idiotic Faction

Got to be the Mollies. They built a super dense minefield around their base, and once every minute, if you're in the right place, you will hear the screams of a Molly blowing up in their own mines.

toss-up between mollys and the junkers.

I mean how unsuccessful must the mollys be? After god knows how many years of pirating, they STILL fly wolfhounds? HELLO!!! Spend the cash and buy some friggin crusaders ya morons.

Junkers... gotta give it to em... jacking a Titan with a CSV, then asking for food? FOOD??? I have a load of diamonds. DIAMONDS YA NIPPLEHEADS. Sweet jesus, your DNA HAS to be removed from the gene pool.

gotta be a tie between Xenos, Mollys and Rouges and most trade groups



Rouges- They try to attack a group of 5 level 38 titans with 3 ships (this was in mp).......they ask for me to drop 1 scrap metal
oh and when they ask soemone to drop the cargo and u blow up the scrap metal they get pissed


Mollys - They fly around in bloodhounds.....They ram into you, they fly into the planets......


Trade groups- THE FRIGGEN TRANSPORT DONT UNLOAD CARGO....THEY FLY INTO ATMOSPHERES......THEY PROTECT MOST THEIR **** WITH STARFLIERS..


Xenos- Hated by every faction, use civilian ships alot....attack in less numbers than should....attack stations that cant be destroyed.....always attacking detroit

Heretic

The Xenos first with the Mollies on a second place

Xenos; What the heck do they hope to achieve by hating EVERYONE!? Man, they have crap weapons, almost as bad ships and shoudl've been exterminated by the LSF/Navy/LPI a looooooooong time ago.

Mollies; NOw, if they have their base in a field of gold, why don't they fly better ships? They just keep blowing themselves up in the minefield.

I can't wait until I find a really good mod where I can fly the Liberty Cruiser... Ah... Sweet dreams Buffalo Base, 'cause here comes the almighty Projectile in the Dorsetshire (yeah, I'll call her that...) to blast your puny base to even punier pieces! WAHAHAHAHAHAAA!

I think the Gaians are the most idiotic faction; They're like the hippies of Sirius! On a sort-of-related note, I think my favorite faction is the Outcasts or the Bounty Hunters.

Gaians have some nice weapons, though. I've got 4 "Gaia's Savior" photon cannons on my Barracuda along with 2 Pyros type 2's and 2 Dragoon type 2 turrets. I am unstoppable!

The Junkers must be the craziest. Their CSVs cannot fight anything that is better than a Starflier yet when you have something in your hold that they like (a piece of scrap metal, for example) than they will demand that you drop that cargo. It gets really pathetic sometimes, like a lone CSV trying to stick up an Eagle even though it cannot even scratch the shield of that ship.

@ #Team-Pr0Jectil
The Xenos have excellent weapons; their guns have the best damage in their class but also have decent energy efficiency and targetting characteristics, and being particle weapons they have a bonus against the graviton shield prevalent in Liberty. When I figure out how to get the class 3 Adv. Scorpions in a reasonable amount of time then I'll try to fly the Patriot all the way from Manhattan to Toledo and beyond.

Although maybe not the stupidest, I'd say the Police (of any house) is pretty damn stupid; when they catch you with contraband, they kindly ask you to drop it, give you a minute or so to dock with a tradelane (effectively allowing you to run away from them) and only then think of actualy forcing you to give up the cargo.

Herectic, the xenos are friendly with the zoners, they run the freeports and have the eagle fighter

Post Sat May 31, 2003 8:04 pm

The Hogesha are pretty stupid once one kept saying it was going to get away and it coundn't take me on but it just stayed there, still! Doing nothing so I destroyed without it fighting back and I got a drake type A.

@ Sherlog
Yes, I know that they have Scorpions, I just don't like them. Kinda useless. Once you can easily get them you have better guns anyway. The Tarantula shots look very nice BTW. Can't say I care about Adv. Scorpions.

it gotta be the liberty rogues, see the fighter they fly, i wonder they re robbing something or rather just for liberty police traning course?

Post Sun Jun 01, 2003 12:26 am

this is funny , u make me laugh buddy!

Post Sun Jun 01, 2003 5:58 am

i think the bretonia police and mollies r up there in stupidity. once i went to Newport Prison ran by the bret police and i saw them just fly through the mine fields and blow up... so of course i decided to start shooting at them and most of them died from running into their minefield. ditto w/ the mollies.

actually the AI for all the groups is rather weak. i mean if u get into the way of a NPC ship u can direct them into a planet

Courage isn't the ability to fly head on into the jaws of death with an arrogant smile. Its the ability to run away from a couple of Xenos and face the laughter.
