Re: Legal rating removal, combat and survival

Ok rear gunnery seems to be the consensus then. No tough guy OXPs, these battles are usually over in seconds, its a case of .... whoop whoop whoop, 5 orange blips, I go into evasive manoeuvres and try to lock a target, blam blam blam blam, ... "you have died". The standard shields are tota...

Re: Legal rating removal, combat and survival

Ok, back to combat and survival ... I'm finding it quite difficult to increase my rating, I'll go to more dangerous systems to get some more combat experience and kills but invariably end up getting attacked by 5-6 ships at once, all of which have pulse lasers and can hit me with every shot regardle...

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes

Nice one, the new shipset and the planets/nebulae OXP have already transformed the graphics, will give some of these a go too.

Re: Legal rating removal, combat and survival

Nice, plenty to go thru there - I've got 30 odd kills under my belt now so am on that ladder ... Plenty of eye candy installed and the graphics have been transformed, also fired up a couple of the other recommended OXPs. I guess now its a case of doing milk runs to build up enough coin to buy a bett...

Re: Legal rating removal, combat and survival

Cheers for the replies, managed to get it down finally - trying to avoid anarchies as I just get pummeled by groups of ships, a couple I can handle but my combat kungfu isnt strong enough yet for a simultaneous onslaught of 5 Mark II Asps! Any survival tips? Is there a way in the shipyard to view th...

Legal rating removal, combat and survival

Used to play Elite a lot as a kid so was delighted to discover Oolite and have now got back into it over the past day or so. A couple of noob questions though: 1) I've read that in order to reduce your legal rating you need to do a few jumps, however there is a problem with this. Wherever I jump to ...

Re: Griff's normalmapped ship remakes
