Man, just imagine being this guy, just hammering some poor FAS with (what looked like) beam lasers, the guy's barely able to do anything to you, when suddenly your shields go down for seemingly no reason and now you're on the run from some invisible menace whose packhounds are eating up your drives. Well done, CMDR!
It’s almost like combat logging is a response to the fact that PvP is completely unbalanced and only players that fully modify their ships specifically for that purpose even stand a chance.
I love the stealth mechanics in this game, I used to have a dbx which low emissions, clean drives, x16 sinks and effiecient weapons. Basically untargetable beyond 300m xD
Got stealth DBX too. Really Fun ship to fly, it's almost unreal how little heat it generates 😃 if only it was a bit faster but hey, we can't have a perfect ship can we 😃
@@rocket2739as soon as you fire on target you pop up on radar, opportunity weapons like cannons you'll just pop off again but weapons like beams even if you're zero heat and silent running you'll still be on radar until you stop firing and are 1km away from target.
Once their drives are down, couldn't you have kept hammering their power plant in hopes of triggering an instakill or did they remove that mechanic? I don't do PvP but that's something that works for NPCs.
Aside of the torps, I didn't have any other weapons than the packhound missiles, which are great for damaging exposed modules like weapons or thrusters, but can't do damage to internal modules like FSD or Powerplant. Plus even if I did have other weapons as well, I probably wouldn't want kill him anyway, I'm just not a fan of killing other CMDRs just like that.

I disagree. How is it dirty to use a ship for what its good for? That's like calling someone dirty for using a fdl for its maneuverability, or a vette for its firepower. I saw nothing but a ship being used as intended, with weapons being used as intended, vs the beefiest warship in the game.
I suppose I could do it. There Is however a Reason to why I built a federal Gunship for this purpose, And not any alliance ship, altho I really love them (I've got 3 challengers And 2 Chieftains XD). All ships have their respective heat generation statistic that cannot be changed no matter the build or engineering, And this Is better for FGS. It means that it just simply produces less heat, And So you can stay hidden/fight with low heat signature longer. Alliance ship could be done tho, if you want. I'd just probably think about it you want a fighter in the build, And if not, go for some of the other alliance ships. The Crusader really sacrifices almost every other stat for the option to have fighter And it's not a good tradeoff in this case.

Combat logging is basically when you exit the game while engaged in a combat with someone else, reason mostly being trying to avoid being destroyed. It can be done multiple ways, for example pulling out the internet cable, force shutting down the game through task manager etc. Which are ways that also break the game's TOS, or going to menu and waiting 15 seconds to be able to log out without violating the terms of service.

Going shieldless in Shinra is one mistake. Coming back there in Open with millions of credits worth of exploration or biological data instead of Solo is a VERY bad idea
That’s why you swap to solo when you have valuable shipments, eat shit community event pirates, as you so often do Alternatively keep your back to a star in supercruise and they literally cannot get you
in fairness what else is he gonna do? his drives are trashed so he cant move or do anything, and since he saw heliaxx seemingly not give it a real effort in killing (i know you said the ship isnt meant to be killed in anouther comment) but to the other guy he likely saw it as being a waste of time for him and just left so he can return to solo, repair his drives and fly out to a station, to repair. i dont blame people who do the 15s timer, exspeccually if their intentunally not being kileld but not allowed to do anything. i do kinda like the 15s timer, its more of a legal shame, but gives you more reason to go for Buffing youre ship for survivability, to survive those 15 seconds. if they cant kill youre ship in 15 seconds while its motionless, then ya id say they werent getting that kill to begin with. sinc ei live with a rule in the game, you want to be able to dispatch a ship quickly, mainly the harder hitting ones, if you cant they become a genuine threat at killing you, a ship capable of surviving for a prolonged period of time, mainly in conflict zones are going to be the most likely doom of you since they also tag team you, so dealign with the hardest hitting and hardest to kill ones first, vastly increases youre survival odds.
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat probably because they know I'm only playing devils advocate and even then they know I'm right, if you can't kill a harmless/motionless ship within 15 seconds, you have no room to complain if they log off after said 15s. Just means time for you to get better hard points. Or they may have a really good ship.built for survivability.
2 questions. 1. How come it's frowned upon to log dog fights? Am I supposed to disable logging somehow?? 2. Are you smashing into his canopy so he'd suddenly see a giant f***ing ship covering his whole field of view? 😂
Logging out of the game during fights , specially pvp fights to avoid being killed Is a pretty sh*tty thing to do. I mean if you are playing on open, they should accept the concequences from that ( plus last time I heard, it is a banable offence since it’s an exploit ) . As for the second question . Yes they did
Well, I only did this because He logged before on normal piracy where his life wasn't even threatened if he just listened and gave me literally like 20 Cargo. And while no, He definitely didn't have to log here and anyone who's honorable wouldn't. He could have just waited, or high waked Away (if He didn't suck, there was an easy way not to get his drives taken down and safely high wake)
People that complain about combat logging are extremely annoying and silly. Sorry that some players don’t want to deal with your invincible Uber-FSD-mega r4pe anti player ship whose only purpose is to kill players when they are trying to enjoy the game the way they want while also playing with others. You see, PvP is not balanced in this game. A player who has not committed his entire game to PvP doesn’t stand a chance against these ships, and would rather just turn the game off than have to deal with you while you also go on UA-cam and whine about how he didn’t just sit there and let your invincible ship kill him. It’s so strange that people like you occupy a fairly large portion of this community, where in any other game you would be laughed at by everyone.
Well, Im sorry but combat logging simply is against the game's TOS, and even menu logging I personally consider to be pretty scummy practice, just like ganking. I can understand if newbie who doesnt know what's ok to do does it, but then there are people who abuse it. And Im sorry but everyone can build themselves a ship that will be in 95% of alll scenarios totally gankproof, even with no engineering, and dedicate not even an hour to learn gank evasion. And once you do, it's actually even pretty satisfying to be able to escape anyone who attacks you by using purely in game mechanics and no exploits. And sure, you will still find yourself in situations where you know you'd be pissed if you got destroyed and know your current ship wouldnt be sure to withstand a gank. But that's precisely the situation where I will log into solo. I just see no reason to go play in open if when I actually got attacked, I would just clog anyways, whats the point then.
James walker combat logging is an exploit that is very commonly used unfortunately, when im pirating I can tell you that it gets annoying when they do it. They chose to enter open play mode, they should accept the possible consequences too.
One would actually need to PLAY the game for that. What this guy is doing is literally turning the game off when it gets too tough for him so other people don't get the satisfaction of their efforts. I'm not sure if I'd call that "how others play ED", if not moreso how others QUIT playing.
Combat logging is not an available option for how to play the game. It's considered cheating/exploiting. It's that simple. Yea, it's dumb to complain about gankers.. Cause they are playing the game their way... Dumb to complain about legit pirates... Bounty hunters... Explorers.. Traders... Etc, but those are all legitimate ways to play the game. Combat logging is not a legitimate way to play the game, and is therefore open game to criticism, just like it's okay to complain about aimbots in games, or hackers, etc. Clogging is among their ranks.
I had this natural power. My internet is slow af everytime i meet someone they said i was disapear on their radar but i can still see them and even make some damage. Frontier didnt fix this problem, i play other game had no issue even with 200ping. Only this game that im going to be invisible. Before frontier fix their netcode this can be opportunity for griefer. Im not griefer, i just one to tell the one who had bad connection in this game is more dangerous. Ah yes other benefit to being lag AF is the one interdict you just give up cause u taking too long time to drop from supercruise 🤣
bro, I still see the first comment where you mentioned combat logging on CG in notification :D not very cool :D I mean, when you log when in danger, you can straight up go play solo right? I got took down by a ganker in frag mamba there as well, lost some 300 million as I was just hauling triti whichI bought from friend's carrier for some 300 000 cr/ton. I didnt log when I saw him tho, cuz I knew what I was risking :D
@@cmdrHeliaxx i dont have carrier so i get those tritium from station far away. I dont want to loose that single digit by griefer. Sometimes it takes 1-10 minutes to jump to another system cuz im stuck at hyperspace. Now i had Carrier cuz this tritium run 🤣
@@shyguyid well sure, I have times when I don't want to risk my cargo at all as well. I'd say for those instances there is solo tho. And yeah, that was probably the most expensive haul I have made there ever, as friend was selling at quite a high price, and it was also the only instance when I got ganked XD. It's always in the worst possible moment lol.
Only gankers deserve combat log... You know, when you work hard with a ship with a gorgeous 37M credits in insurance cost, you worked an whole day to earn 45M credits and a coward come for destroying you just because they want to see nice explosions and they don't even be interested in my cargo ( most of the time, limpets)... I swear, combat log is just a soft, non-violent way to contest what i live and if you want to know the hard way... I swear you don't want to know that.
I ❤ these kind of videos, Loggers getting punished for cheating. I Hate the act of Cheats! CMDR Heliaxx, nice work, very nice indeed. As I write to Mr Oddball, Morrrrrrrrre punishment for loggers. The videos Never get boring. However, I logged for the 1st time years ago because I feared being up against real players for the 1st time but you know, when I grew some balls, I went back to the cmdr, apologised & we did battle. Being honest & being to another player taught me loads. I have NEVER logged since. We all get 1 chance to log because 1st time PVP is scary but after that, grow balls or stay in Solo. If your Female, act like an amphibian & still grow some balls. Mr Pirate Heliaxx, Yarrrrr & stay safe.
Thank you! Sure, I guess almost everyone logged at some point in the game, in the beginning atleast I guess, when I was starting out I logged against some NPC pirates who threatened my fully loaded type 6/9 which I just spent last 3 hours filling painite mining 😃 If I recall correctly I never logged in a PVP engagement to player tho, that might be partly because I actually started to go play in open pretty late, already with mostly fully engineered ships and stuff and I went training evading gankers to deciat 😃 I guess it's just important that everybody stops eventually and it doesn't become a habit. Because if you log out when faced the smallest possible danger - what's even the point in playing in solo then right? If one wants purely positive player interactions, there's always Mobius private group for example.
@@cmdrHeliaxx Never heard of Mobius Private group. I did Solo for about 6 months while getting use to the new concept of 'Elite' being a sandbox of no limits, I mean, 'Elite' 3 on the Amiga was huge & blew my mind back in the early 90's but 'Elite Dangerous' as it was known back in 2014 was all new, the biggest sandbox play area of that time, it knocked my socks off. The 'Elite Dangerous' Galaxy was (& still is) so beautiful, tears of amazement just fell from my eyes, no squeezing of the eye lids, just genuine natural emotions of what I was witnessing. People moan about the trip in Supercruise to Stations, I love the traveling so much, I pay a visit to Hutton Orbital on a regular basis to buy some special Gin that can only be purchased from Hutton Orbital. My collection of Gin is my clock of how many times I have made the trip. 'Elite' franchise has been in my life since Christmas 1984 as 'Star Wars' has been in my life since 1977. I got to see the original 'Star Wars' before it became 'A New Hope'. The only Difference, Darth Vader at the end of 'Return of the Jedi' after the very 1st remake to make story room for 'The Phantom Menace'. Not many people know that small fact. You still awake? Sorry. I tend to go on. Stay safe & Yarrrrrrr!
@@federalcorvettelover3874 Sure, I enjoy reading comments :D yeah, I would agree that ED is the ultimate sandbox game. For example Star Citizen tho aims to being a life simulator and spaceship orgasm , that's why I dont really get why people compare them. I like star wars as well, actually my next video is about Elite Dangerouse's own Tatooine. I have been looking for the best possible version of it in Elite for a while now :D
Old video, but I see the usual: Uses a big powerful ship, doesn't have the skill to fly, and under ranked in combat to top off the list. Text book combat logger… Shame Frontier do nothing about them, even reporting falls in deaf ears.
WTF does it have to do with combat rank? If all you care is trading and if you make your credits this way you have no right to own a specific ship? E:D community at its finest.
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeatwhere’s there cope? I stated my experience of loggers, often low ranked big ship pilots who don’t have a clue how to pilot. Thankfully now, most new players I meet in combat usually know how to use IN GAME mechanics to avoid being killed, very few actually use the exploit of task killing the game…
Nah, I actually don't care about combat logging that much, I dislike ganking traders and newbs much more. Of course it would be better if people didn't do it, but I have no interest in making them banned for it. This was just a funny coincidence that I ran into this guy and decided to make him my target rather than anyone else there at the moment 😃
So you struggled to kill a 'Competent' cmdr, more than once, while having a hard time keeping him in range, all while in a small ship vs a big ship and using mouse and keyboard which is a lot easier than a hotas for example. Interesting 🥱
What small ship vs big ship? I had extremely slow hull packed gunship, he had corvette. And I didn't try to kill him the first ecounter, was literally just about to scan him for cargo but he logged before I could even do anything 😄 And here I mainly just thought it was good opportunity to get back at him but no, I didn't have ship with any kind of finishing power cuz it's just troll ship, I don't even gank 😄 So yea ofc I "struggled to kill him" XD
@@cmdrHeliaxx so you decided to harrase him? Why don't talk to him and explain everything? He was probably panicking. Anyway, still bad display of skills and flying in this particular situation (IMHO), it was also planned on your second attempt, so you dictated everything. Oh and i forgot to mention that he was in a pve ship, probably unengineered since he was still 'competent'. No hard feeling, just my thoughts sorry, I try to educate new players instead of messing around with them, but we are not all the same. Take care and fly reckless ✈️
@@ShinigamiAnger Well, whatever you think I guess lol. You don't know me, I absolutely hate ganking/griefing. With piracy I feel like it's a good interaction and net Positive for the game. When I pirate someone, he just gets to have potentially pretty nice RP chat, and at most having to give up like 20 our of his 500 Cargo. I don't think it's that bad interaction at all and I have made lots of friends doing it. And hey if you think you can Escape I don't even mind if you try it, and if you manage it, good on you, it's actually impressive. And I always make several warning even when someone tries to do something stupid. I don't like going for a kill. I do admit neither my skill or my ship was that good at the time of making this vid, tho, it's pretty old by now.

in fairness what else is he gonna do? his drives are trashed so he cant move or do anything, and since he saw heliaxx seemingly not give it a real effort in killing (i know you said the ship isnt meant to be killed in anouther comment) but to the other guy he likely saw it as being a waste of time for him and just left so he can return to solo, repair his drives and fly out to a station, to repair.
i dont blame people who do the 15s timer, exspeccually if their intentunally not being kileld but not allowed to do anything.
i do kinda like the 15s timer, its more of a legal shame, but gives you more reason to go for Buffing youre ship for survivability, to survive those 15 seconds. if they cant kill youre ship in 15 seconds while its motionless, then ya id say they werent getting that kill to begin with.
sinc ei live with a rule in the game, you want to be able to dispatch a ship quickly, mainly the harder hitting ones, if you cant they become a genuine threat at killing you, a ship capable of surviving for a prolonged period of time, mainly in conflict zones are going to be the most likely doom of you since they also tag team you, so dealign with the hardest hitting and hardest to kill ones first, vastly increases youre survival odds.
@@TheFallinhaloI’m amazed you haven’t been swamped by “clogging” claim freaks yet, very lucky
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat probably because they know I'm only playing devils advocate and even then they know I'm right, if you can't kill a harmless/motionless ship within 15 seconds, you have no room to complain if they log off after said 15s. Just means time for you to get better hard points. Or they may have a really good ship.built for survivability.
Nice fight you got a coriolis on your ship build?

2 questions.
1. How come it's frowned upon to log dog fights? Am I supposed to disable logging somehow??
2. Are you smashing into his canopy so he'd suddenly see a giant f***ing ship covering his whole field of view? 😂
Logging out of the game during fights , specially pvp fights to avoid being killed Is a pretty sh*tty thing to do. I mean if you are playing on open, they should accept the concequences from that ( plus last time I heard, it is a banable offence since it’s an exploit ) .
As for the second question . Yes they did
No you bastard you should leave them alone are you one of those Petty people that like to go after people who don't know how to fight
@@razorback8300 its not bannable if you log using the 15s timer
Shoulda gone for the power plant
Only had Packhounds, so I couldn't do any more internals damage than the torps did.
Holy shit I need packhounds
Why would he stay and let you bash him 1% hull per minute? Everyone and their grandma would combat log cause what you're doing is not honorable
Well, I only did this because He logged before on normal piracy where his life wasn't even threatened if he just listened and gave me literally like 20 Cargo. And while no, He definitely didn't have to log here and anyone who's honorable wouldn't. He could have just waited, or high waked Away (if He didn't suck, there was an easy way not to get his drives taken down and safely high wake)

People that complain about combat logging are extremely annoying and silly. Sorry that some players don’t want to deal with your invincible Uber-FSD-mega r4pe anti player ship whose only purpose is to kill players when they are trying to enjoy the game the way they want while also playing with others. You see, PvP is not balanced in this game. A player who has not committed his entire game to PvP doesn’t stand a chance against these ships, and would rather just turn the game off than have to deal with you while you also go on UA-cam and whine about how he didn’t just sit there and let your invincible ship kill him. It’s so strange that people like you occupy a fairly large portion of this community, where in any other game you would be laughed at by everyone.
Well, Im sorry but combat logging simply is against the game's TOS, and even menu logging I personally consider to be pretty scummy practice, just like ganking. I can understand if newbie who doesnt know what's ok to do does it, but then there are people who abuse it.
And Im sorry but everyone can build themselves a ship that will be in 95% of alll scenarios totally gankproof, even with no engineering, and dedicate not even an hour to learn gank evasion. And once you do, it's actually even pretty satisfying to be able to escape anyone who attacks you by using purely in game mechanics and no exploits.
And sure, you will still find yourself in situations where you know you'd be pissed if you got destroyed and know your current ship wouldnt be sure to withstand a gank. But that's precisely the situation where I will log into solo. I just see no reason to go play in open if when I actually got attacked, I would just clog anyways, whats the point then.
What I hate worse than loggers is people who whine about how others play ED.
?
James walker combat logging is an exploit that is very commonly used unfortunately, when im pirating I can tell you that it gets annoying when they do it. They chose to enter open play mode, they should accept the possible consequences too.
One would actually need to PLAY the game for that. What this guy is doing is literally turning the game off when it gets too tough for him so other people don't get the satisfaction of their efforts. I'm not sure if I'd call that "how others play ED", if not moreso how others QUIT playing.

Combat logging is not an available option for how to play the game. It's considered cheating/exploiting. It's that simple.
Yea, it's dumb to complain about gankers.. Cause they are playing the game their way... Dumb to complain about legit pirates... Bounty hunters... Explorers.. Traders... Etc, but those are all legitimate ways to play the game. Combat logging is not a legitimate way to play the game, and is therefore open game to criticism, just like it's okay to complain about aimbots in games, or hackers, etc. Clogging is among their ranks.
I had this natural power. My internet is slow af everytime i meet someone they said i was disapear on their radar but i can still see them and even make some damage. Frontier didnt fix this problem, i play other game had no issue even with 200ping. Only this game that im going to be invisible. Before frontier fix their netcode this can be opportunity for griefer. Im not griefer, i just one to tell the one who had bad connection in this game is more dangerous. Ah yes other benefit to being lag AF is the one interdict you just give up cause u taking too long time to drop from supercruise 🤣
bro, I still see the first comment where you mentioned combat logging on CG in notification :D not very cool :D I mean, when you log when in danger, you can straight up go play solo right? I got took down by a ganker in frag mamba there as well, lost some 300 million as I was just hauling triti whichI bought from friend's carrier for some 300 000 cr/ton. I didnt log when I saw him tho, cuz I knew what I was risking :D
@@cmdrHeliaxx 300m creds is not cheap btw
@@cmdrHeliaxx i dont have carrier so i get those tritium from station far away. I dont want to loose that single digit by griefer. Sometimes it takes 1-10 minutes to jump to another system cuz im stuck at hyperspace. Now i had Carrier cuz this tritium run 🤣
@@cmdrHeliaxx the first time i buy those tritium my credits is 1mil left. I cant aford rebuy cuz 30-40mil tritium
@@shyguyid well sure, I have times when I don't want to risk my cargo at all as well. I'd say for those instances there is solo tho. And yeah, that was probably the most expensive haul I have made there ever, as friend was selling at quite a high price, and it was also the only instance when I got ganked XD. It's always in the worst possible moment lol.
lol aimbot
Only gankers deserve combat log... You know, when you work hard with a ship with a gorgeous 37M credits in insurance cost, you worked an whole day to earn 45M credits and a coward come for destroying you just because they want to see nice explosions and they don't even be interested in my cargo ( most of the time, limpets)... I swear, combat log is just a soft, non-violent way to contest what i live and if you want to know the hard way... I swear you don't want to know that.
I ❤ these kind of videos, Loggers getting punished for cheating. I Hate the act of Cheats!
CMDR Heliaxx, nice work, very nice indeed.
As I write to Mr Oddball, Morrrrrrrrre punishment for loggers. The videos Never get boring.
However, I logged for the 1st time years ago because I feared being up against real players for the 1st time but you know, when I grew some balls, I went back to the cmdr, apologised & we did battle. Being honest & being to another player taught me loads. I have NEVER logged since. We all get 1 chance to log because 1st time PVP is scary but after that, grow balls or stay in Solo. If your Female, act like an amphibian & still grow some balls.
Mr Pirate Heliaxx, Yarrrrr & stay safe.
Thank you! Sure, I guess almost everyone logged at some point in the game, in the beginning atleast I guess, when I was starting out I logged against some NPC pirates who threatened my fully loaded type 6/9 which I just spent last 3 hours filling painite mining 😃 If I recall correctly I never logged in a PVP engagement to player tho, that might be partly because I actually started to go play in open pretty late, already with mostly fully engineered ships and stuff and I went training evading gankers to deciat 😃 I guess it's just important that everybody stops eventually and it doesn't become a habit. Because if you log out when faced the smallest possible danger - what's even the point in playing in solo then right? If one wants purely positive player interactions, there's always Mobius private group for example.
@@cmdrHeliaxx Never heard of Mobius Private group.
I did Solo for about 6 months while getting use to the new concept of 'Elite' being a sandbox of no limits, I mean, 'Elite' 3 on the Amiga was huge & blew my mind back in the early 90's but 'Elite Dangerous' as it was known back in 2014 was all new, the biggest sandbox play area of that time, it knocked my socks off. The 'Elite Dangerous' Galaxy was (& still is) so beautiful, tears of amazement just fell from my eyes, no squeezing of the eye lids, just genuine natural emotions of what I was witnessing.
People moan about the trip in Supercruise to Stations, I love the traveling so much, I pay a visit to Hutton Orbital on a regular basis to buy some special Gin that can only be purchased from Hutton Orbital. My collection of Gin is my clock of how many times I have made the trip.
'Elite' franchise has been in my life since Christmas 1984 as 'Star Wars' has been in my life since 1977. I got to see the original 'Star Wars' before it became 'A New Hope'. The only Difference, Darth Vader at the end of 'Return of the Jedi' after the very 1st remake to make story room for 'The Phantom Menace'. Not many people know that small fact.
You still awake? Sorry. I tend to go on.
Stay safe & Yarrrrrrr!
@@federalcorvettelover3874 Sure, I enjoy reading comments :D yeah, I would agree that ED is the ultimate sandbox game. For example Star Citizen tho aims to being a life simulator and spaceship orgasm , that's why I dont really get why people compare them. I like star wars as well, actually my next video is about Elite Dangerouse's own Tatooine. I have been looking for the best possible version of it in Elite for a while now :D
I have never logged
it is exploiting, not cheating
Old video, but I see the usual: Uses a big powerful ship, doesn't have the skill to fly, and under ranked in combat to top off the list. Text book combat logger… Shame Frontier do nothing about them, even reporting falls in deaf ears.
this is why i play solo :))
and log in open only to fuck the asses of gankers X,D
if it's 15 seconds you can write 100 reports - itis not violates the eula, that's why.
WTF does it have to do with combat rank? If all you care is trading and if you make your credits this way you have no right to own a specific ship? E:D community at its finest.
That’s some cope if I’ve ever seen it
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeatwhere’s there cope? I stated my experience of loggers, often low ranked big ship pilots who don’t have a clue how to pilot. Thankfully now, most new players I meet in combat usually know how to use IN GAME mechanics to avoid being killed, very few actually use the exploit of task killing the game…
im have also video with this combat logger Pythongermany.send this video to frontier please.
Nah, I actually don't care about combat logging that much, I dislike ganking traders and newbs much more. Of course it would be better if people didn't do it, but I have no interest in making them banned for it. This was just a funny coincidence that I ran into this guy and decided to make him my target rather than anyone else there at the moment 😃
Frontier wouldn't ban someone for combat logging
They couldn’t care less
Combat logged my arse! I can log out from wankers in less than a second.
Good for you. Why play in open then? Being able to run from most gankers Is So easy honestly, I don't even see many reasons for clogging
Just go away. Nobody likes people like you in-game, Doug. You're parasites like the rest of the cloggers.
Horrible music
So you struggled to kill a 'Competent' cmdr, more than once, while having a hard time keeping him in range, all while in a small ship vs a big ship and using mouse and keyboard which is a lot easier than a hotas for example. Interesting 🥱
What small ship vs big ship? I had extremely slow hull packed gunship, he had corvette. And I didn't try to kill him the first ecounter, was literally just about to scan him for cargo but he logged before I could even do anything 😄 And here I mainly just thought it was good opportunity to get back at him but no, I didn't have ship with any kind of finishing power cuz it's just troll ship, I don't even gank 😄 So yea ofc I "struggled to kill him" XD
@@cmdrHeliaxx so you decided to harrase him? Why don't talk to him and explain everything? He was probably panicking. Anyway, still bad display of skills and flying in this particular situation (IMHO), it was also planned on your second attempt, so you dictated everything. Oh and i forgot to mention that he was in a pve ship, probably unengineered since he was still 'competent'. No hard feeling, just my thoughts sorry, I try to educate new players instead of messing around with them, but we are not all the same. Take care and fly reckless ✈️
@@ShinigamiAnger Well, whatever you think I guess lol. You don't know me, I absolutely hate ganking/griefing. With piracy I feel like it's a good interaction and net Positive for the game. When I pirate someone, he just gets to have potentially pretty nice RP chat, and at most having to give up like 20 our of his 500 Cargo. I don't think it's that bad interaction at all and I have made lots of friends doing it. And hey if you think you can Escape I don't even mind if you try it, and if you manage it, good on you, it's actually impressive. And I always make several warning even when someone tries to do something stupid. I don't like going for a kill.
I do admit neither my skill or my ship was that good at the time of making this vid, tho, it's pretty old by now. But hey, I got several Piracy vids here, might give you a bit of an Insight on how that can look and if it's really worth clogging over. o7
@@ShinigamiAnger I also assure you that Vette was most likely fully engineered lol, no eng Vette would still take quite a beating even by those packhounds.
@@cmdrHeliaxx no you don't get it, I'm a pirate myself, but it's you who said that you were toying with him here, and I'm just talking about this particular situation, which I find despicable. I explicitly said that I was talking about this particular situation so I was not talking about you as a person, of course I don't know you, nor was I judging your playstile as a whole, so pointing out that there are other videos does not change my opinion about this one. He was clearly new to the game, I think it could have been handled differently, I'm not sure why I would ever want to publish a video like this one where I would show bad piloting and bad behaviour against a noob. But as i said, that's just me. I hope I made it a bit more clear, I'm sure you are a great guy and have become a great pilot aswell, I just don't like what I see in this specific case.
